Malta or Portugal over xmas

hoxtonbabe

Hi,

Having seen some good flight deals to malta or faro I am unsure as to which one to go to? I know Faro will be quiet and thats fine by me, but I dont want to go anywhere where the kids will be really bored so thinking Malta may be better for them, but also want to go to the warmer of the two.

If i go to Malta, where are the nicer areas? I have been looking around St Julians bay, and all the nice hotels seem to be located there??

Thanks

All depends on what your children like doing, outdoor pools are likely to be cold if open, so perhaps check availability of indoor pools.
Some packitch 'oliday hotels may have compulsory christmas/new year's eve gala dinners that you may want to join in/or avoid.
Malta is a densely populated catholic island and I would guess there might be a lot of religeous things going on on Christmas Eve, again something you might want to join in/or avoid.

I would settle for Malta as it has more going on at this time of year. As posted find somewhere with an indoor pool or even check out a public indoor pool- kids love water wherever you are in the world!!
