Looking at booking a holiday in the second half of October and will most likely head to canaries for sun and sand.
Ds is 5.5 months so will be around 7 months when we go. I have been thinking that booking a nice villa or apartment with either shared or private pool will be better than any sort of hotel or all incl set up at that age. Do you agree?
My main concern would be evening sleeping. Ds goes to bed at 7 so I think it makes most sense that we could put him down then cook and eat our evening meal after he's asleep. With a hotel where we would go out to eat, we'd have to have him sleeping beside us in the pram or awake and grumpy at dinner time which sounds stressful to me! We can always go out for nice lunches with him in tow (and poss see about getting a cook in for one or two nights to make a meal - some nice self catering places offer this).
I guess the other option would be a small hotel where we could leave him in the room and have the monitor with us while we eat in the restaurant but I'm not really comfortable with that idea unless I knew he was literally just a few metres away.
I guess I think villa makes more sense but not enamoured with the idea of having to cook or prep food every night on hols!
