where to go??????

[coke71]

Have any of you well travelled ABers out there got any suggestions for our family holiday next may, we can't make our mind up on where to go, we want somewhere with a bit of life and fun but not with gangs of lads/ladettes everywhere, a bit of culture would be great, we also have to entertain a 11yr old and a 6 yr old (both girls and very energetic) and pref all inclusive nice hotel , loads of fun, loads of sun, with a flight time of around 4hrs or less.

Cyprus -been twice and loved it and Bulgaria is fantastic -we went before the new hotels were built and even then we really loved it -the people the beaches just the whole ambiance.

Sunny Beach -highly recommended.

How about Port Aventura.

This is a hotel & theme park complex near Salou which is about an hour from Barcelona.

Reus airport is about 5 miles from Port Aventura and flying time is just a few hours from UK.

The complex has 3 hotels, a great theme park, and a great water park.

If you stay in one of the 3 hotels you get to go in the theme park every day for free, and also the water park for free (or reduced price) depending when you go.

Easy - go on a cruise! something for everyone. I suggest Royal Caribbean's Voyager of the Seas out of Barcelona for 7n. Check it out. All food and entertainment included - where else can you rock climb and iceskate when at sea?
