Good hotels for summer break with teenager

[schmalex]

Pretty much since our lad was 1, we have taken our Europe based summer holidays in villas. Whilst my wife and I love the independence a villa gives you, we were mindful this year that our lad, 15, wasn’t really getting what he needed out of a holiday (read “parents are dull and it’d much for fun for him to hang out with other kids”).

Does anyone have any good recommendations for hotels within short haul flight duration (6 hours tops) that is excellent for kids and adults alike?

I guess our ideal would be a 4 / 5* hotel that has self contained villas within its grounds, but gives access to the pools / restaurants etc and is also close to a town

Any recommendations are gratefully received!
