    1- Luton would be best live opposite the airport - can walk to the place! Or Gatwick, Heathrow
    2- 1 week
    3- sept 3rd
    4-Night flight yes
    5- 2 adults
    6- any type - the cheapest
    7- Quiet, away from the crowds - to be at one with nature in spectacular scenery with some sea would be nice
    8- Dont want to do tacky binge drinking resorts - prefer to get away from my native English!!
    9- Just be interesting with activities/nature watching - perhaps whales or dolphins in the wild
    10- no worries when ever

    11 Max budget £650

    Probably being completely unrealistic - but here goes.

    7 adults and 1 child, looking to leave on or very close to 3rd September, ideally for 10 or 11 nights, but can do 14 at a push.

    Can fly from pretty much anywhere, but South West, Wales, or London preferrably as based in Devon.

    Here's the catch - we want all inclusive, preferabbly 4* but 3* will be fine if it's a nice place - hotel MUST be named - due to previous bad experience.

    Looking for somewhere beachy, not too lively, but some nightlife and things to do outside resort i.e. shopping, watersports, waterpark etc.

    Possibly Fuerteventura, Majorca or similar.

    AND, we hope to get for as close to £400 per person as possible - this can include the child place too.

    Any suggestions? I've done 376,854 google searches approx - teletext look to have amazing deals - but when u ring they're never what they say they are.

    Any help appreciated.

    Cheers
