Looking at:
Playa de Las Americas, Tenerife
Accomodation - Parque de la Paz or Parque Santiago 3 or 4 as I know they are near the beach and in a nice area!
2 adults and 2 kids (15 and 14 so may be cheaper as 4 adults)
I want a week - earliest I can go is Sat 9th April and latest return is Tuesday April 26th
Have been getting prices around £1300 - websites all seem to play up when I search, have got prices from Thomas Cook and First choice.
We'd be looking to fly from Birmingham, East Mids or Manchester at a push.
Thanks0 -
