We're off to the Turtle Beach in Barbados this August - comes highly recommended both on here and with friends who've been there before.

Here are some Caribbean family holidays with justcaribbean.com showing the child ages and how many get a discount when sharing with parents/adults.

Some Caribbean resorts will allow 2 plus 2 children and one infant in a cot in the room, many don't and keep to 2 plus 2 children as the norm.

Some give single parent discounts, like Jolly Beach in Antigua.

The Turtle Beach rex, in Tobago, (only a 3 star) has family rooms that sleep 2 plus 3 children (up to 16 years). Great value for larger families on a tighter budget.

So I guess what I am saying is it depends on your family size and your children's ages - as to where you start.

We have booked Veranadh resort in Antigua for the summer.Previously been to almond Beach Village in Barbados we enjoyed it but would not rush back.

Have been to Almond Beach Village in Barbados and do not recommend that sadly.

There are 5 of us, 2 adults and 5 children 9,8 and 5. I am struggling with room size. The verandah looks lovely but the rooms arent interconnecting. I have had 1 quote already from jolly beach in one of there 2 bed seafront cottages which came out at £7800 for 2 weeks all inclusive, however i have also found the same room but on room only for £4750, how expensive is it to eat out over there and is it safe enough to do so. I really wanted to spend around 6K -Thanks

Hi Im a mum and stayed for a few months in antigua when i worked over there, i stayed several times at Jolly beach, had 2 young kids, I just loved it, its 3 star only so if youre looking for 5* dont go there, but the beach is right next to accomodation, Ive seen the 2bed cottage you mention and its not that big, you would be better off getting a 2 superior room with interconnecting doors, i would email them direct to get a good price, there are 3 pools, 4 good restaurants, kids clubs etc, the rooms are clean but basic but you just tend to sleep there or watch some tv etc
