    2 weeks anywhere in Canaries - any time in Feb (or March if its cheaper)

    For 2 19 year old girls - so they would like lively at night and sitting by the pool in the daytime.

    Not hostel accomodation though.

    They have said anywhere hot and cheap so if you can think of anywhere else that fits this bill would be greatful for info.

    Can anyone fine anywhere for them - cheap as possible as they are both unemployed but have saved for this holiday. So are both very flexable on dates.

    From Gatwick, Southampton or any London airport

    Can anyone help please?
