Holiday with swim lessons

5 replies

A bit niche but has anyone managed a holiday with swim lessons ideally daily.
eg Neilson or Club La Santa?
Would you recommend and did it have a good impact on kids swimming?
Both children are water confident already so looking to tidy up their actual technique rather than just splash about

TUi holiday villages do swimming lessons.

I havent used them to comment but I think they offer them 6 days a week

No but I think it's a good idea. What I did with my DC was to book one to one lessons at home before a holiday. I asked the teacher specifically to cover water safety in pools and sea. Then DH and I spent a lot of time in the pool with them on holiday and their swimming came on immeasurably.

Our friends did the lessons at Holiday Village Rhodes and raved about them. My DC could swim so we didn’t do it ourselves.

Neilson is amazing, they do 1-2-1 lessons at extra cost, plus a group lesson in kids club every day. You can drop them in/pick up from kids club whenever it suites you, and there is a daily timetable, so you aren’t tied to it. Plus just being on holiday with great pool encourages swimming and I found our DD came on so much each time. She is just 5, and will be going on her 4th this summer. Only health warning is early and late season the pools can be very cold, we normally pack a wetsuit just encase. It’s useful for a poorer weather day anyway.
DM me if you want resort specifics, I’ve been to most of them pre or post DD.
