Can anyone recommend a good hotel to take pre-schoolers in the Canary Islands?

More holiday help required. We want to go to the Canary Islands with our 2 children (almost 2 and 4) in March but the hotel we normally go to in lanzarote is a ?1,000 more expensive than last year! Wondered if anyone could recommend a good hotel on any of the islands? It needs to be somewhere that does a buffet breakfast/has a children's pool/playground/activites/be in walking distance to a beach and bars/restaurants and most importantly where we can get a suite with a separate bedroom and lounge area so we're not all sleeping in the same room - sleep deprivation always ruins a holiday for me!

Second the Princesa Yaiza - had lovely holiday there last year. Beach right on the doorstep, kids clubs & pools, plus soft play indoors, which was v handy for tiring little legs out before dinner. Also a small supermarket right outside, with nappies etc. We had a one bed apartment with kitchenette, which was just a fridge & microwave (pay extra for a kettle) but as much as we needed. Stuffed ourselves at breakfast...

How funny - just stumbled across this thread after (yesterday) booking the Princesa Yaiza for our summer holiday! Lovely to hear the good reviews of it. How much am I looking forward to sizzling by a pool this summer...?


We have also been to the Abama in Tenerife which was very swish and lovely - fantastic pool, beautiful hotel and right near a great beach. The breakfasts were AMAZING (I do appreciate a nice hotel breakfast). The kids' club was very quiet when we went and it didn't seem particularly exciting (more colouring and Lego etc than organised activities) but it was off-season and just after it had opened so it might be different in busier times of year. It's also a bit in the middle of nowhere so you'd need to rent a car if you wanted to explore outside the resort. That aside, I'd definitely recommend the hotel itself.

Hi - the Yaiza is great. Unfortunately this is the one we used to go to in the past that has suddenly gone up in price drastically so I don't think we can afford it this year :-(. It's perfect for children though so you won't be disappointed.

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      By Sue · Posted

      £30-40 for M&S Christmas food for two seems very low! And only £60 for food and drink for 8-10 people?  We have had M&S food at Christmas in the past, and it came to a lot more than that. I suppose it depends exactly what you are buying. We left it late to book a Christmas Day meal out last year, so there weren't many options left.  The Cherry Tree menu looked very nice. That was our first mistake. We also overlooked the fact that it was a Young's pub, with all that implies about the food. That was our second mistake. We don't have shedloads of money. We  took the view that we deserved a nice meal  out after working bloody hard all year. So it was doubly disappointing to basically waste a lot of money which could have been very much better  spent elsewhere.

      No sweetheart. It is a fantastic sermon which should be shared. It is a rights-based sermon which received a standing ovation - if you can be bothered to get to the end.

      Welcome back. What have voting intentions got to do with this thread? And much as you may hate the present incarnation of so-called Labour, as do I,  I don't think it is true that they have "not done a single positive thing for working class people", is it? And how exactly are you defining "working class people", anyway?

      Is Sarah Pochin toast?

      I can’t bear the media “is this racist comment racist” angle taken to reporting it. I feel like she’s a useful out rider for Farage to test how far they can take their rhetoric - it’s not the first time she’s said things that cross over the line. Overt racism is becoming far more commonplace and it’s deeply concerning.
