Getting exhausted doing research on this... We'd like to go away with our 20 month old before she hits 2 and we have to pay her airfare! This limits us to march/April and we went to go somewhere warm enough to swim... Ideally no more than 6-8 hours flight, for 7-10 days. Looking currently at Dubai & Canaries, but neither are filling us with much inspiration right now... Any tips or other ideas?? Thankyou!!
We took our then 20 month old to Sharm el Sheikh last year (Easter holiday) & had such an amazing time. She still talks about the swimming, beach etc. We stayed in a lovely hotel that had a really nice creche/babysitting services which she also loved, so we had a few afternoons to wander around the markets without toddler & pushchair. Highly recommend Egypt!
good luck with that. For my family we are struggling to find anything under ?4000!! But we are 5. Was def cheaper last year. Thompson, Thomas Cook, First Choice. Longwood all have Egypt. And Canaries although have heard weather not reliable in Canaries in March? And Turkey does not really open for beach holidays til mid April - if anyone can confirm that I'd be grateful!er

Canaries depends a lot on where you go regarding weather at this time of year. Islands like La Palma or La Gomera or North Tenerife will be coolish, but South Tenerife is guaranteed to be pleasant and warm - tho not really hot.


we lived there for years, and rent out our old house for holiday lets etc. you can see pics etc at

and happy to answer any questions. is completely off the beaten tourist track and a little gem.

We stayed at the Al Waha, Oman in March 2011. Amazing holiday with our 2.5 year old. Hotel had a kids club, soft play and fab pools. The food was delicious and as I was 32 weeks pregnant at the time I totally indulged. The weather was perfect, about 30 degrees.

just to update the thread (i'm missus fry :))

we have decided to book in here http://www.adrianhoteles.com/en/roca-nivaria/ a child friendly hotel in Tenerife, mainly because the flight is only 4.5 hours and because they accept younger children in the kids club - a lot of places we looked at would not accept under 4s...

jollymummy, that place looks really perfect though, will definitely take a look for our next trip!

thanks for all the tip offs, v helpful

    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
