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.

      The Mansion Tax

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Certainly the threshold won't be increased, but, additionally, once the position is accepted that central government can impose a rental, for no return, on property you might expect it to be widened. Remember Council tax, also a tax on property, is in exchange for the services we get from our local council, but this property tax is in exchange for nothing. Indeed those hit by this tax are amongst the relatively few people, in general, who are net contributers to national income, as opposed to net benefitters.

      The new tax will go up annually by the rate of CPI which is a lot more than 2.6% under this government. but the threshold is not going to be increased by inflation. So soon enough a lot more of you people will be living in mansions that are subject to this tax.

      For folks who are trapped in £2M houses that they just simply can't move away from and see themselves as asset rich but cash poor as they bought it for a small fraction of the current value back in the 80's or whenever, how about this: House inflation in the UK is currently 2.6% pa* - that equates to £52,000 per year gain on the asset. Don't worry at all about the money you've earned to date by just simply living in your own house, but from this point you could realise (borrow against) that whopping £52,000 a year that the property is going up by, and cover this new tax amply. *yes I'm aware London is dragging compared to national figures here, but family homes in London are outperforming smaller properties, and that has certainly not always been the case.
