I spent a couple of hours researching yesterday and felt really despondent at the lack of cheap, interesting and warm places 😔

Are you looking for home or abroad?

Tornado18 · 13/01/2024 15:19

We’re looking at abroad and agree everywhere is so expensive even for four days

Feb half terms in the past we have done

Tenerife & Gran Canaria - weather ok but pools were freezing.

Antigua amazing but expensive.

Cape Verde weather beautiful, beaches beautiful but the resorts needed more of everything including better service/food. This was around 5 years ago now so they may have changed.

Canaries but check resort has heated pool.

We thought about tenerife but I wasn't impressed with what others said about pools and I've found it windy in the past which worries me in cooler weather. We usually go skiing but everywhere is so expensive I fancy doing something different as it's getting repetitive. All holidays have gone up loads, we went to Turkey last May hols but the exact same holiday is £1200 more expensive this year and it sickens me to pay that much more for the same place when it wasn't even all that.

Following as I'm having the same dilemma. I'm wondering about Malta. The weather looks pleasant, but not warm

We're going to Portugal. 4 nights, £350 pp. Not the hottest place to go to but I'll take 17 degrees over whatever it will be here.

Exact same issue. Tenerife used to be a great "cheapy' holiday, but you're looking at £4k for a week these days and like others have said, you really need the heated pools.

Looked at skiing too, but it's sickeningly expensive 🤨
