Holidays with very young sprogs

[Mr E]

First holiday with the offspring looms.

He'll be ~15 months.

She (who is reading this - hello my sweet) requires sun and that's about it.

He requires some form of crèche for at least part of the day to give us a break. If there's also some form of "we'll watch the kid sleep while you try to have something to eat in the evening" thing, that would be excellent.

I require beer and some peace.


Not too bothered where, although long haul is probably not a great idea given the smallness of the child.

Current thinking is that a Mark Warner is the way to go, but interested in any other experience/recommendations the massed ranks of PH may have.

Late sept/early Oct datewise...

In my experience, kids clubs and the like tend to be from aged 3 or 4 and upwards. I'm thinking you might be having to go down the baby sitter route at that age.

I have kids aged 5 and 6 who love kids club on holiday - get in

We did a Mark Warner holiday in Hurghada when ours was 18 months or so and it was great. We booked some half days of child care in advance, and he had so much fun we wanted to get him in more but couldn't because it was booked up.
