Anything else to remember?

Hi, I am looking at going visiting my mum next year in march to benalmadena, spain for a week.

Found appartment here for £139 a week

and flights here for £260

Total: £399.23

Other than insurance is there anything else I need to book? This is my first self build holiday so I dont have a clue :o Transfers are not a probelm as stepdad can pick us up.

Thanks :) also can anyone beat these flight prices? Want to go in march as its easier for mum and cheaper for us :D

    Do you have your EHIC? (formally E111)

    It's good to have in addition to insurance (and it's free to apply online etc.)

    I just checked mine and it expires in 2010 (got it last year), so maybe they last 5 years?
