Beach hol with 15 yo DD

13 replies

hohum12345 · 15/06/2023 16:54

Looking for recommendations for a summer hol, just myself and DD 15.
Obviously the fantasy is somewhat like the Mama Mia location but in the real world requirements would be loosely:

Near beach
Hotel not too big, with pool. Views
Laid back with some charm.
Near pretty town/harbour with good choice of restaurants (nothing too lively although enough for a sociable teen!)
Places to visit
Reasonably priced!

Rhodes - Cyprotel in Faleraki. My teen loves it!

Menorca Cala Galdana, hotel Cala Galdana, took DD at 14. Pool, fabulous beach, nice day trips.

Alvor, Portugal, Pestana Dom João 2. Again, fabulous location, lovely little town, great days out.

Both with Tui. Faultless.

Thank you, will take a look.

Quite fancy Balearics

Ooh following as I’d love somewhere new.

I really enjoyed corralejo, fuerteventura. Went once at Easter for a surfing trip with my son. We’d surf in the mornings and laze by the pool in the afternoons or take a beach / boat trip and the evenings there’s a lovely little town, good choice of restaurants, live music etc, and some nightclubs if you wanted that.

I used to go to Ibiza but not sure where these days would be good and not too trashy as last time I vowed never to go back to the busy parts!

Olu Deniz in Turkey could fit the bill

Nerja in Spain is lovely. My teen DD and her friend loved it when both families were there at same time.

Porto Pollenca in Majorca 🙂

Oh yes, Nerja is lovely too

I would avoid Turkey with a young woman, have heard too many accounts of sleazy men.

Everyone I've known who has gone to Majorca over the last few years has enjoyed it.

Friend just back from Oporto in Portugal. Said there wasn't time to do all they wanted to do. Had dc who are a bit older with her. Highly recommended it.

Parga, mainland Greece, took my girls there at that age, they loved it. Also Skiathos

snowlady4 · 16/06/2023 14:35

Palma Nova is my absolute fave!!! Suits all ages, reasonable prices, short flight, beautiful beach, great weather, perfect.

Oooh following as I’m doing similar. Nerja and puerto pollenca have also been recommended to me by friends. Lively enough but not too banging.

Im about to book an AI in Kos, Greece that looks nice for me and teen DS. Lots of help from Tui as it’s the first time I’ll have been away by myself with high maintenance teen!
