Your kids will love large water park in Faliraki.No.1 in South London said:
Get down to Lindos for a day and see the acropolis...... pub called the sunburnt arms was owned by Cliff Myers with some old football memorabilia from himself days playing (He started at Charlton) there as well and a nice place to eat drink and visit.4 bowman said:Anyone been to pastida Rhodes, just booked 2 weeks early August never been to Rhodes, me the wife and two teenagers any ideas for day trips would be a help (apart from the casino I’ve got that sorted )
Faliraki is more of a family resort these days.0 -

After much deliberation, its a week in Cornwall for us at end of July. Wife has booked a house pretty much on the beach at Portreath. I'm driving down with the wife and two daughters. The two Nan's are flying down. Our youngest is only coming up to 12 weeks old now, so we was unsure whether we should be going away at all but hey, its done now. The eldest daughter is booked in for surfing lessons and I'm disappearing for a night to attend an astrophotography course so I can shoot the Milky Way with one of the UKs leading landscape photographers. Yes, I'm a geek.
Then we're toying with the idea of another long 3 and a bit week winter holiday to somewhere interesting just after Christmas. Japan is top of the list. If we dont go there, we may just head for the Caribbean somewhere. Just need to make sure the youngest is crawling by then so we don't have to take all the sterilizing stuff with us!

lovely place mate, you are literally a 2 min walk from the hotel i stayed in, its brillaint as a 10 min walk one way is the main drag with restaurants and bars and you also have 3 beaches within a 2, 5 or 10 minute walk. costa costa was the best i done.Taxi_Lad said:
We’re off to Kefalonia this week. Also staying near lassi at the Enalion Suitespalarsehater said:
i looked at that hotel but seemed a bit far out, a lovely place all be it a bit quiet of an evening, we only really ventured to the trentis bar on the main road after a meal out. ofeaststandmike said:
Nice one, we were in White Rocks Hotel just outside of Lassi two weeks ago.palarsehater said:Just back from a week in kefalonia, would recommend stayed in lassi at thalassa boutique hotel was nice for the money paid £711 each with return flights, private transfer and b&b for the week, dinner each night for 2 courses and a bottle of wine/3 or 4 beers would be under 50 euros and really nice food. There was a fellow addick in the hotel as kept seeing the towel by the pool but never saw the person, also hotel is a 10 min walk from costa costa beach which is decent a proper well run beach with umbrellas and sunbeds.
also done the trip from the excursion place on the main road where we went to
dragorati caves
messina lake
agia effima
fiskardo
myrtos beach
was pretty good and was a full day trip.
restaurant i liked the most was Phaedra - which is on lassi main road. we didnt bother going anywhere else as there is enough places to eat and drink somewhere different every night.

Faliraki is more of a family resort these days.
Just go anywhere but faliraki(unless you go direct to the waterpark blindfolded)
Going to pefkos(pefki)in a week and a halfs time been for the last 5 years love Rhodes.
Lindos is great and so is Rhodes town well worth a day most

Booked Butlins for October half term with my daughter, my wife’s half term dates differs with hers so just the 2 of us.DaveMehmet said:Booked 2 weeks in Menorca in August at the weekend, can't wait. Did Center Parcs a couple of weeks ago and also have my annual trip to the Goodwood Revival in Sept sorted.
I've also got a week booked off at October half term so may take my daughter away somewhere.
Looking forward to the CL trip to Arras next month and am thinking of booking a weekend at a Christmas market somewhere.1 -

@smudge7946 we're going before most of the schools have broken up, so it's slightly cheaper but just did the sums as needed to bill the parents of my son's friend who is coming with us.. It's costing us £1532 each. That is flying out economy with BA, but have emergency exit seats (£70 extra each), returning premium economy (overnight flight), staying in Cabana Beach hotel (on site at Universal, room only), car hire, and park tickets (£275 each). We'll need to buy food (it's not cheap) and kids will no doubt go shopping at one of the discount outlets. Expecting just over £2k per person.. can be done cheaper (stay off site, book a villa, don't fly back premium etc) but can also be much more expensive a few weeks later when the rest of the schools break up. I bloody love it there tho :-)0

We're thinking of doing it next year. My sis works for Universal and can get free park tickets and other discounts. Will be dearer as we'll have to go during the school holidays but we've paid £5k for 2 weeks in Menorca this year so probably won't be a lot more than that.0 -
I genuinely love it @DaveMehmet ....Depending on kids of course, but for age 11 up (I reckon) Universal beats the Disney Parks every time and if you can get freebies/discounts, then that'll be awesome (the VIP trip is the one you want - walk straight to the front of every queue!). I will be going back in 2 years time (when son has done his GCSEs) to visit the new Star Wars experience at Disney, which doesn't open til later this summer....I reckon the queues may have died down by 2021...
First time we went as a family (5 years ago now), we had a week in Orlando in a villa (wife didn't want to be anywhere near the parks as - at the time - was a park snob) and then we drove down to Miaimi for a few nights then down to Key West for another week...idea being that son and I had a holiday and then she had a holiday (neither of us can sit still, so a week on a beach/lounger just doesn't appeal..).. As it was, wife loved the parks too and was flying about on every rollercoaster, so everyone was a winner... Brilliant family vacation place. Go.1 -

Three days in Budapest from tomorrow. First time since 1986, before the wall came down. Be interesting to see if I can remember anything from last time. Though it was an interrail trip then, and I was mostly very hungry from having survived for three days on two bottles of metaxa 5 star and half a can of sweetcorn. All we did was eat.0

Going Santa ponsa next week for a week for my 15 month old sons first abroad holiday.
Cant wait to switch off and spend some quality time with him.

Santa Ponsa is a lovely resort I went there about 10 years ago with my kids.roseandcrown said:Going Santa ponsa next week for a week for my 15 month old sons first abroad holiday.

Only thing is it's full of Scots.
Not that I'm racist towards our next door neighbour s.
But I was the only English man in my hotel.
Take a flag of St.George with you mate and give it large.2 -
Going away with kids and switch off in the same sentence. Lol, you’ve a lot to learn my friend :-)roseandcrown said:Going Santa ponsa next week for a week for my 15 month old sons first abroad holiday.

We did 3 nights there a couple of years ago. Didn’t go pre iron curtain so can’t compare. Ruin bars are generally good. Some are just weirdIdleHans said:Three days in Budapest from tomorrow.
