Hlo. We are looking at booking a holiday abroad for summer school holidays. The one we want is 6150 for 14 night all inclusive 4 star 2 adults and a teen.... is this too expensive? It is for turkey but other countries seem to be of similar if not higher priced ....

Thanks! I know if I went to Antalya Turkey it would be half the price but it wouldn't have the views

Thank you I do compare to holidays like this and this is what makes me hesitant. What month are you visiting?

Thank you so much. We have one child and this is what gets to me, that she's growing up so quickly and work gets in the way, hence I want to try and make it a long holiday!

I don’t think that’s a bad price for 14 days in school
hokiday time. I’m doing a week Airbnb with friends in Spain in August and it’s not luxurious by any stretch - will still be £3500 for me, my adult child and my 6 year old child for the flights and accommodation. Expect to spend another £500 while there on food/eating out. Holidays are expensive. I’d love a 2 week break but can’t stretch to that right now - if I could I’d def spend the money. I live for those breaks. Soon enough kids grow up and don’t want to go with you any more. One of my three is already in that camp. Enjoy it if you can without breaking the bank. I still remember all my (modest) family holidays as a child as such happy times.

I don’t do 2 week holidays but I think that sounds about right.
