Help find me a holiday

Trying to find a holiday for end of August this year.

Looking at Canaries, Majorca, Greece, Portugal, not fussed, but not turkey.

2 Adults, 2 children, 16 and 13, all inclusive.

budget around £3 000.00

Anyone got any suggestions on hotels.

We are not fussy, as long as there is a pool, and a beach nearby.

Would also like there to be some shops or a harbour, something to go and have a look around if we get bored doing nothing :rotfl::rotfl:

    Look at packages from Scottish airports departing when Scottish children are back at school.

    Have you looked at Jet2 from EMA?
    If you go down to the woods today you better not go alone.

    Travel republic, £2156, flying from EMA to TFS (tenerife) with ryanair.

    Puerto de la Cruz is quite a journey from TFS, a private transfer might be worth it.

    loveholidays.com has a very flexible search engine that should throw up some options. You can put in many destinations, departure airports and date ranges at once. You don't necessarily have to book with them but it will give you ideas of what's available.

    For example Birmingham-Tenerife 16th - 23rd August staying at Laguna Park in Costa Adeje £2386, including a piece of baggage each and coach transfers.

    Or East Midlands - Zante 15th - 22nd August staying at Zante Plaza in Laganas £2659, including a piece of luggage each and private transfers.

    There is literally hundreds of results, and some much cheaper. Although I filtered for Trip Advisor reviews of 4 or 5 out of 5, and both those hotels are highly rated.
