Bobbaz Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Having recently given birth I'm looking to treat myself and book my Summer Holiday and wondered if anyone can recommend somewhere family friendly? I'm after somewhere in Europe (2-4 hours flight time), with a kids club for a 3 year old and also suitable for a 4/5month baby (a room with a small kitchen/kitchenette would be fab). Ideally a high 4 or 5 star type hotel/accomodation in a small resort but with good restaurants in walking distance would be perfect. Any suggestions appreciated!

lillyanginger Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Have a look at Austria. They have a whole chain of "kinderhotels', all meeting your requirements. They are not cheap but look really good.

candj Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 We often go to Italy (everywhere from the north to the south) with the children as it's close and very child friendly (2 hour flight). We use the service tuscanynow.com.Also, Greece is a good option for resort-type places with kids clubs, swimming pools and beaches (4 hour flight). We've stayed at one called the Sani Resort in Halkidiki which had a nice spa for the adults and a lot of restaurants in the harbour within walking distance.Haven't used babyfriendlyboltholes but their website looks lovely and easy to use.Have a lovely holiday!

anna75 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 mark warner hols? they certainly USED to be great but I think less so now owing to charging for eg waterskiing etc Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10480-inspiration-needed-for-summer-holiday-with-kids/#findComment-307938 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pommie Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 would recommend Pefkos in Rhodes. Apartments are called Pefki Island Resort. Lovely clean place, people friendly, got two resorts where you can use the facilities in each resort, 3 pools, within 5 minutes of restaurants, bars etc. We have been going for years, you book thru Thomson. have a look at their website at the photos and reviews.

Ann Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Agree with above posts but am firmly committed to Eurocamp/Keycamp type holidays. We usually go to France and hire a Mobile Home and yes we fly these days ( usually with Ryanair plus car hire). Good quality campsites offer a huge range of entertainment including Kid's Clubs. France never fails to have some delightful local restaurants which are always child friendly. Admittedly I hadn't been on such a holiday with a child as young as yours but with hindsight , would have done. To have a fully functioning kitchen to me is a real Godsend.Anyway have a lovely holiday whatever you choose.
