    I suggest that you try to search for travel blogs, you can find interesting view and budget hotels with those bloggers. Of course they will not post the area if it is not good.

    I went to Tenerife last year for a week self catered for £150 so I'd say £668 is a bit steep!

    Nope, self catered, but as it's so cheap out there, only spent about €50 on food that week ;)

    You have not said where you can fly from or what your dates are but a quick look at First Choice shows plenty of availability for all board basis from London from less than £200pp (for SC Greece) to £350-£400pp (for AI Spain, Balearics, Canaries). This is for 3* rating, I'm sure there must be some reasonably good accommodation amongst those choices?
