Weekend stag break abroad...

The stag in question - wants sunshine - abroad - no cheese - no naffness (That's shagaluf out of the question then) and the whole thing to be pretty relaxing (boringhehe). Villa / Pool decent places for a drink etc.

Wedding is abroad to so cost is an issue. Thought I'd mention this, as this is PH after all c*ckswingingmatters walletswingingmatters etc.

And no dressing up apparently nono

And before some billy smart b8lloxs recommends the search facility - the key word is recommend...

I've been browsing t'interweb for hours and so far - no joy...

When is it?

Barcelona is pretty decent from April onwards
A good shout - I've mentioned Barca to the stag - apparently not "beachy" enough. His folks have a place not far away in Spain so maybe a bit familiar...

Not the most relaxing but the best stag do we did was to Pamplona for the bull run.

Lots going on, plenty of food, more than enough drink and watch / taking part in the runs every morning if you like.

Sofia - Bulgaria. Very cool, sophisticated - certainly not the usual Prague style stag. Chill out Piano Bars are great, lots of decent clubs, bars, and cheap as chips. Can give you a few heads up on the best and hidden bits.

There is a beach in Barca IIRC. Lisbon is a similar level of city IMO but less touristy.

The problem with wanting a beach resort is that the classy ones are expensive...

Find the cheapest flights you can for the week. Sleazyjet fly to the Algrave for example, then stick into google or the like Villa Algarve and hire a villa that sleeps 10 (or however many in the party) for like £500 thats £50 each so your total per person cost so far about £100 for the week. Spend the remainder on coke and hookers.

Bulgaria a good shout. For good beer, sun and value for money I'd be looking more at eastern Europe (well, outside the Euro zone!)

Croatia?
