I know I'm looking really late, but I'm trying to book 2 bedroom holiday accommodation for August near a pool and beach. I would prefer a package this year as the flights are all so expensive by now. I'm not picky where we go but am thinking Spain, Portugal, Greece. We are 2 adults 2 small children. The problem is it appears every search engine assumes we will all sleep in the same room, or in a 1 bed apartment with me and husband on a sofa bed in the lounge... For over ?2k a week... Is it really so strange for me to want to sleep in a separate room from my kids? Surely there must be 2 bed apartments in the swathes of apartment blocks across the med? The only way I can get any 2 bed places to come up is by saying that we have 2 further kids, but then the price rockets to over ?4k as it's done per person. So frustrating. Rant over.

Maybe I am the only person whose idea of a holiday doesn't include sharing a room with the kids?!

I agree with you...need some space! I am going back here this year after a relaxing week with my then 3 year old last August.

It's not luxurious but we had a 2 bed spacious apartment(slightly dated but had everything we needed)which was very clean. They are individually owned so the d?cor varies....my sister has also been and had a 3 bed apartment with roof terrace.


There is a small children's pool next to the main pool, and just cross a footpath and you are on a large sandy beach. The resort is small and quiet so not much to do but you can get a local bus to Ciutadella with it's harbour or the capital Mahon. There is a nice promenade to walk on in the evenings and a couple of hotels with evening entertainment (mainly for children I think). We went self catering, there is a restaurant onsite which is ok, basic food but quite nicely done, and other nicer restaurants along the promenade.


Good luck with finding somewhere!

    • Rather than zero tolerance, a term I should have not used, I should have referred to crime,  No crime (excluding some things which really should not be criminalised) should be tolerated (albeit the reaction to a naughty 13 year old will be different to a violent criminal, and similarly those with mental health issues there will be some flexibility), I' was talking zero crime, which is impossible. New York was vastly improved, what happened to that wonderful Giuliani chap? US is not a role model of course, homicides per head dwarf the UK; the damage that white flight and the desolation of inner cities that happened to  many places such as Baltimore, Washington DC and Detroit is difficult to turn round Much rather move this debate to the Lounge!

The entire team can be trusted, unlike other local salons (won't mention the others that have totally destroyed my hair over the years).

    • The quarterly SNT Police Meetings are advertised on EDF - the one Beansprout mentions, is  Dulwich Hill. The team have been short  staffed for a number of months as one officer was injured trying to arrest a shoplifter - unfortunately the shoplifter got away but the officer was left with fractures. We regularly see one or two of the police team around the Dulwich Hill area (they were recently in Landells Road)  Dulwich Hill SNT are hoping to resume their Cuppa with a Copper sessions but are frequently asked to support colleagues policing the various protest marches.  The next Dulwich Hill SNT meeting is scheduled for December (date to be confirmed) The attack on the young woman would come under the Goose Green SNT.
