family holiday

So we're looking at booking a holiday for July 2016. We have to be there for the 27th as that's when my dad's birthday is and this is also the reason for the holiday.

Obviously this is school holidays so it's not the cheapest time of year but I just wanted some advice.

There's 6 adults and 2 kids one aged 10 and one 11 by the time we go. After looking around it seems the kids are charged the same price as an adult for an all inclusive. Does anyone know anywhere that does deals where kids are cheaper or does this just not happen anymore?

Any help or advice appreciated. P's tried looking at villas but these aren't saving us anything. Seem to be coming up around the same price and then there's the added expense of shopping.

    9 times out of 10 the child age for all inclusive is 12 and under, there is the very odd exception of some Turkey hotels at the age of 6. At this stage you should be able to get free child places or kids for £1. Try to price up 2 adults and 1 child in a room and not 2 adults and 2 kids as the 2nd child price is generally dearer than the 1st child.
