Help! Warm, heated pools and kids club at Easter- ideas?

We want to go away in the Easter holidays with our 2 year old DD.

I've priced up Dubai as we went last Easter and I cannot believe how much more the prices are!

We went to Belek the year before that but weather was a bit iffy and hotel has no heated pool which kind of ruined the holiday.

So, can anyone send any advice for places that are pool/sunbathing weather with an excellent kids club (DD is 2 so we would supervise her)? We were spoilt in Turkey as they really do have everything in one resort but I just can't guarantee the weather.

Thanks!

HD Parque Cristobal Is one of the most family friendly hotels I’ve been to. I think most of their pools are heated.
There’s also Baron Palace Sahl Hasheesh in Egypt which has a baby club and the family swimming pool, kids pools and Swim-up Suites pools are heated during winter.

Tenerife. We stayed at GF Isabel which was decent but not fancy.

@Fivemoreminutes1 any stomach upset in Egypt? That's the thing putting me off!

Mauritius. We went with an 18 month and it was great. We stayed at the Lux Belle Mare which had a brilliant shelving pool.

Wherever you go, check that the kids club allows parents to go in with younger kids - most do but a few don’t (guess as it might upset the ones whose parents aren’t there) so worth checking.

How about the Martinhal in Sagres, Portugal? Lovely heated pool and fab for a family holiday

Hello, I’ve just booked our first family holiday abroad to the Xanadu resort Belek . I read the reviews very thoroughly and joined a FB page for the hotel. I’m just concerned about the language aspect of our holiday. There are inconsistent reviews about the staff and if they can speak English. I can speak English, French and some Spanish. Should I learn Turkish?! Has anyone stayed here that could alleviate my fears.
