We are off on our first one of these soon to Spain.

Would be v grateful for any advice/heads up.

Would love to hear any suggestions for happy family all inclusive.

We have 2 DCs (DS 4 & DD1).

Thanks!

Take baggy clothes for the second half of your holiday. Very handy if you over indulge at the buffet!
Have a great holiday.

Pay as much as you can afford to avoid those who just go for the drink.

Eek - really hope our resort not like that -

seems quite family orientated ...

Not sure we can upgrade to privilege (!) class Wink coz of age of DCs ...

Thanks for heads up....

I've been to some lovely ones.
Those with 3 stars rather than 4 (ie cheaper) tended to have perfectly good food and accommodation but not such lovely guests or children of guests.

Our 3 experiences of AI have been excellent. We've visited Spain, Majorca and Turkey (all 3 or 4*) and have never encountered excessive drinking - phew! Have a fab time!

Phew ... just double checked hotel is 4 star ...

Getting excited now despite laundry mountain to be tackled
