Not so much AIBU…Looking for a real break for this holiday. We have an 18 month old and are looking for a beach/pool type holiday for the summer. Any ideas welcome please.

This.

First thing to do is lower your expectations. I'm in Thailand now with a toddler visiting family, it is not relaxing at all. Tag-team, get family to go with you, hire childcare, choose accommodation with playrooms and playgrounds etc. to make it easier.

Hotel room with a balcony and room service for naps and early bedtime, or self catering if you can be bothered with the cleaning up and cooking.

Balconies and toddlers don't = relaxation for me!

This, especially when there is a pool in the vicinity

On the basis the flight is usually the worst part to handle having had some shockers with my children when small, I would limit flight time to 2/3 hours max. Majorca, Minorca, a villa somewhere in France near water, Portugal, Tenerife and just do a package thing. Jet2 holidays are good. I would never have done one before but much easier with kids . Make sure you make them drink on take-off and landing.
