HELP : looking for a short sunshine break NEXT WEEK!

Calling all travel agents - wonder if you can solve the impossible!
Looking for a 4 or 5 night break in the sun ... from 14th Feb thru 21st Feb ... for 2 people. ideally mon-fri/sat or tue-sat
Need for warmth narrows it down to Canaries, Morocco or Egypt (I think)
However budget is £800-1000 tops (preferably less) which removes Egypt due to flight prices and makes the others very tight. Want all-inclusive or half-board (not heavy drinkers so HB plus paying for drinks might be ok)
ideally hoping that one of the tour operators might be selling off spare airplane capacity cheaply - had a couple of near misses but flights keep selling out "moments" before we ring up! (plenty of hotels available of course!)
idea is just to completely relax so facilities (pool etc) v. important; entertainment less so.
Any clues!!!

Was going to throw Dubai into the mix, then saw your budget and remembered that it's half term week in England, "May the force be with you!"
Do you care how many stars the accommodation is?
Instead of wasting valuable time calling why not book it all online?
Avoid ice lolly, teletext etc.
Try this link for starters, obviously play around with the filters:

Ferret also are you flexible on departure airport or are you limited, state which airports in order of preference??
You need to give as much info as you can so that people can help you.0 -
have you had a look at holidayhypermarket yet?0

It's half term and Mardi Gras, so demand is very good, if you can go later it'll be cheaper.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0
