Families in Canaries?

Question

Looking for a family holiday. Had thought of Balearics but we're now looking at Canaries. Theres a lot of choice but its confusing. We'd ideally like all inclusive but know there are good and bad.

Would need to be 4 star I think. Thanks in advance

BTW its 4 adults and 2 kids under 11

Answer 1

Youre right, theres a lot to choose from, but not a lot of great quality I'm afraid.

For your family, the best deal will be booking 2 x rooms for 2 adults and a child in each room which might hopefully mean you'll get 2 free child places. Youd need to book very soon for a regular package.

The absolute best AI on Tenerife is The Bahia Principe Tenerife/Costa Adeje. Its unbeatable for quality food and general standards. Do not confuse it with The Bahia Principe in Puerto de la Cruz (in the north) they are simply not in the same league.

Its not cheap- in fact you could easily do Mexico for the same price but it is worth it if you're just looking for short-haul.

Next Would be Dunas Paraiso

Please avoid Caledonia Aparthotel, Villa Tagoro and anything below 4 star for the nicest accomodation.

There  are also a great many hotels on HB which are worth considering.

Answer 2

Can't help you with all inclusive, but Tenerife is good.

Gran Canaria is also worth looking at.
