Hi not sure if already a post about this. My husband and I really want to be able to take our kids on an allinclusive holiday next summer holiday. We be browsed a lot and think we ll be paying about 3/4 thousand for it so we want the best for our money. We will have. Two twelve year olds a 10 year old and a 6 year old. We know we could get a villa but we want to be able to get most of the holiday and entertain the children and know we can go self catering but we don't want to have to worry about money when we are there. We are open to where we go just hopefully the best we eat for our money. Does anyone have any advice or anyone with big families got any fab deals. Would love to hear from you thanks in advance x

In the summer months I think you have a pick of places. If it were me I would look at the likes of thomson or first choice but stay away from the holiday villages. Look for other hotels with good kids club. For instance we a going to Cyprus next June. It has great kids club, all inclusive, great reviews but won't be massively full of Brits abroad which in the summer months, holiday village generally is.

Or go into one of the agents and see if you can still get any free child places.

If you are going in the school summer holidays will you manage to get the 6 of you for 3/4K?
I would imagine you would need 2 rooms which will bump up the price and I don't think there is that much choice of apartment accommodation with more than 2 bedrooms?
We normally book a villa and we have 3 children and we are normally around 3-3.5k for flights and a 3 bed villa for a fornight.
You may need to look at the October holidays for a slightly cheaper option.
Booking as early as possible if you want to go with a package in hotel accommodation I would say to make most of free child places and so that you get your pick of places. Did you have anywhere in particular you would prefer?

I have been to 2 all-inclusives (both in October mind you, and only for a week) and loved them both:

Aquis Vasia on Crete and Les Orangers in Tunisia. We had a great time and the food was fantastic in both, check them out.

Thank you ladies.
Unfortunately we only have the pick of Summer holiday due to arrangements between my husband and his ex plus. I have seen a few all invlusive s and were between the 3-4 but nothing very special for the money but I suppose that's what happens with a large family. I really didn't have any where particular just the best for the money. My husband and I are going to Kenya in march with my two children and that is costing less than looking for 2 more kids to Spain shocking but the two step kids ate missing out hence taking them all in summer. We usually get away with haven and have looked at euro camps but works out very close in price so would rather the all in . Daftbesum I will have a look at those places now and might be best just a week xx
