Cost of average summer holiday abroad?

DH and I took the kids to Menorca last summer (just before schools finished). DC1 is now 5 so we are bound by term times, and DH is struggling to grasp the cost increase in the same holiday....

One week in a lovely self catering apartment next to the beach (pool, garden terrace, restaurant on-site) is £2150 for 4 adults and 2 kids. Last year it was nearer £1000. Flights I've found for about £150!

We can afford the holiday it's just that DH doesn't want to pay that much having paid loads less before.

Can I ask if you think that's about right, too much, or even good value? It's our first one in summer holiday time so trying to get a guage of the prices.

TIA

We pay around £130 per night for a 2-bed apartment on a lovely complex. Plus whatever the flights are when I finally cave in and book them. Majorca. Scottish school summer holiday. Then maybe another £300 for a car.
