I would like some April sun

Can anybody point me in the best direction for a weeks sun in April please?
We are two adults and two children (age 8 and 9 or poss 10, depending on which dates in April). We would like to depart from Newcastle between the dates of 17 and 24 April and must return 1 May at the latest. In order of preference we would like to go to:
1. Gran Canaria - Playa del Ingles
2. Tenerife South
3. Fuerteventura
4. Lanzarote
Tend to go s/c usually as a lot of hotel rooms do not have one room for the 4 of us, but I won't rule anything out without considering first.
I have had a quick scan of the main co's eg. airtours, thomson but nothing stands out.
Thanks for any help you can give.

Whats your budget?"Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."0

No absolute budget but for 3* it would be nice to come in less that £1000, however if I could get 5* for £1200 to £1400 I would go with the 5*. Just like to feel that I have got the best deal available. It's for 7 nights by the way.0

Thanks Sloppychops
I think that I've stayed at the Tenerife hotel before and it was fine. They all look OK and I can't decide which to choose so I think I'll check out the flight times and make a decision based on that.0 -
I have just booked 7 night in Gran Canaria , we are going to Puerto Rico on 17th April for 1 week, 2 adults and 2 daughters 9 and 11, got great price through First Choice direct on teletext , they done a 'custom made holiday for us' came in at just over £800, others were quoting around £1200 .We have a taxi transfer to the hotel as apparently it takes ages by coach with all the stop offs. I searched for 2 days on the internet and then took a quick look at teletext and gave them a ring. Paperwork has all come through , did get a bit confused at first though as it all came seperate, Flights with Freedom , holiday with First Choice taxi with somebody else , then Thomas Cook for the airport parking at a hotel by Gatwick.This definately saved us some money,I always shop around.0
