Recommend me a Sun holiday with 3 kids

[toomanyleggings]

I swore after last years holiday horrors I wouldn’t take them this year but dh is making noises about booking something.
The trouble is I don’t know what we want. Last year we went to an all inclusive in Majorca which on paper should have been fine but the fact there was so much for the kids to do was bloody exhausting. They’re 10, 7 and 3 and I have bad anxiety so I’m not really one for just letting them go off to kids clubs etc.
I don’t want to go on long flights really as the three year old is hard work and the middle one gets sickly, even with travel sickness meds.
I’ve thought about booking a villa maybe but not sure what we’d do in the evening as we’ve always done hotels with entertainment.
Any ideas please?

When my kids were little, we would go self catering in a villa or apartment. We would go out for a meal in the evening, getting in around 10 when they would go to bed, so no entertainment needed! Some of the restaurants we went to would have play areas, or a park near by if they got fidgety. If we stayed in, we got a takeaway or did a BBQ and if we had our own pool (rare!) then they loved to go swimming in the dark with the pool lit up. Quite often local hotels would be having some entertainment that we could walk to, and they didn't mind us being there as long as we bought drinks at the bar.
