In desperate need of winter sun and would appreciate recommendations for accommodation. A separate bedroom for our toddler is a must, so struggling with the usual holiday sites.


Think we're after a villa or apartment in a resort with a big pool and close to beach and restaurants.


Any ideas?


Thanks

We stayed here and liked it. http://villaskamezi.com Each villa has its own small pool and it was nice but very very quiet. It's on the far end of the seafront and a good walk along a nice boardwalk to the restaurants. It could work well for a toddler who naps happily in a buggy. I found it a bit too quiet but it was lovely having our own pool.
We stayed here http://www.lanzaroteretreats.com, actually i was pregnant and it was before we had kids, but everyone else there had kids and wondered why on earth we were coming to such a family friendly place before we needed to! It was great, I definitely will go back with my children when we can. There's a donkey and chickens, cats, and lots of play areas for kids, and it's generally a really lovely place to stay. The nearest beach was a bit rocky and too windy for us, although that might be time of year as it was March, so we drove to other beaches. That may or may not make it less child-friendly, not sure.
The Princess Yaiza is superb, but I'm not sure if it can manage your 2nd bedroom requirement. The Gran Melia Volcan http://www.hotelvolcanlanzarote.com/index.php?lang=en is fantastic too and has rooms with a separate bedroom area. It also has no steps. There's no disco etc at night but if you have a little one with an early bedtime that might be a good thing - it's very quiet. There are no steps so it's very buggy friendly and there's lots and lots of restaurants and cafes all along that stretch which goes along up to the Yaiza and beyond. We used to just pop out with the buggy and sleeping child and find a restaurant on the walkway. I know that it's available through Sovereign if you wanted a package.

    • And the Sainsbury’s own brand chocolate mini rolls have gone from £1.15 to £1.40 overnight, so 22%-ish. I prefer them them to the Cadbury original because they have a lot more chocolate on them, presumably because they’re made in a less advanced factory. I would think that getting the Rizla thin coating of chocolate that Cadbury’s accountants demand onto a piece of sponge is quite a sophisticated operation. Discuss.
    • Another recommendation for Leon. He was able to come out to our electrical elergency within 24 hours of me contacting him. His communication was great and whilst he could not solve our problem, he was able to perform tests to identify this and did so quickly and efficiently. He charging  is very fair and his manner very pleasant. Both of these in contrast to some experiences I have had elsewhere.    happy to put my name to recommending Leon. His number is  07707 925039.
    • Other than acting as 'interested parties' Southwark Councillors have no responsibility for water issues. And no real leverage either. Considering the complete disdain with which Thames Water treats its own Regulator, and the government, (let alone its customers) I doubt very much whether an entire battalion of councillors would have much impact. What powers could they exercise?
    • That may not be so - many on this site are experts in many areas - you yourself claim huge traffic management (or similar) expertise for instance. And I think you will find that Southwark employees are unlikely to support criticism or challenges to Southwark policy - why, you don't and you apparently neither live in, or vote in, the borough. Do you, however, work for it, as you are such a cheerleader? If not, then you are the most passionate disinterested person on this site, as regards so many aspects, not just traffic.
