Someone help me find a holiday!

Because I am terrible at booking them! Haven't been abroad in nearly 10 years. I'm so overwhelmed with the choices. Scrutinising everything from transfer times to amenities and then getting flustered and not booking anything.

Basically we want a simple beach holiday (thinking along the lines of Ibiza or similar). Mixed age range of kids from 2-14. We'd ideally want an apartment for the space but on a complex offering all inclusive/half board options, within walking distance of a beach. Ideally a splash park or something similar for the older dc. Evening entertainment would be good too.

Can anyone recommend any amazing family resorts that you've had good holidays in? Like I said, I'm looking at Ibiza at the moment as I've seen some fairly good deals. Budget is up to 3.5k. Thank you so much.

Club 3HB Humbria in Algarve is lovely. We stayed there with friends in 2022, had a wonderful time.

Ticks most of your boxes:
All Inclusive
Different Room size options
Evening Entertainment
Kids Club
Splash Park - we did pay for a day trip to a proper water park though.
Beach about a 10 minute walk
Good food options for picky kids

Just to add - the room we stayed in had a little kitchenette with sink & fridge. We need that as we carry medication for DD.

First choice Holiday Village Ibiza. There are 1 or 2 bed apartments, though I can't remember the exact kitchen facilities. Next to a beach, and onsite waterpark. Plus kids activities, etc.

Why don’t you contact a travel agent, give them all of the above info and they will come back to you with suitable options?

I would go to a holiday village or a TUI Blu with those kids ages, Ibiza can be really awkward otherwise as so many people there to party - get a family focused hotel or you might regret it!

We've been looking at Fergus club paguera Majorca, water slides, close to beach not too far to travel.

Definitely looking at a family hotel. Wouldn't risk it with a generic one as I know it's a party place.

Could anyone recommend any quieter but nice resorts in Ibiza? Only been once and stayed in San Antonio which obviously would be far too wild for little ones.
