Iād recommend SantāAngelo Village in Italy as an alternative to Cambrils, handy flight & good times from Cork, 40mins to the site, plenty of stuff on site to keep the kids busy and right on the beach, food is good and day trips to Venice from right outside the main entrance, all in about half the price of cambrills for this time of the year. Hard to fault the place.

Where did ye fly to?
Cambrils is fair pricey alright
We just landed in Altominicio close to Lake Garda today, all good so far. Thereās a nice edge to it that Cambrils doesnāt have. An adults getting drunk in the afternoon vibe.
Ours are a bit hardier now so can be left off the leash a bit so itās a bit more relaxing and less structured. Will report back further as the break goes on

A bunch of the in-laws are heading there next week. Was recommended to them by an agent.
Are you hiring a car?
Lovely over there. Did a week in Peschiera del Garda just down the road from you.

Venice, Treviso and Verona are all within an hour of it.
Weāve done Union Lido and Pradelletorri in that area too. Gorgeous spots on the Adriatic Sea

Actually @Fran if you do pop in to Peschiera, thereās a small little bistro that makes all its own pasta by hand. Delicious food and reasonable. Pasta Salame itās called I think.

Nearing the end of 10 (ten) nights close to Porto Cristo in Mallorca. Can fault it really. All in job, weather unrale, kids happy, herself delighted, Iām either half cut all the time or cut half the time 
. Having drink on tap is dangerous, weāve an awful problem with drink etc. Mostly German speakers here, a few Brits, sprinkling of Paddies. Safe for the kids, pools, beach, slides; what else do you need

Cheers for that, will give it a go
Yep, we hired a little Corsa or something, it was a bit of a squeeze and expensive but glad we did it. I think itās very difficult to get taxis around here and I hate having to rely on someone else to get around.
Also the shop here isnāt great so Iād recommend they head to the local supermarcado and spend half the money on the groceries

Any decent waterparks there?
Thereās a small water park as part of the complex, perfect for the 4 yr old. A tube slide that lasts around 10 seconds, an open lazy one that is about the same length and a few straight slides at half the time. Havenāt needed to look for anything else close by
I believe they close the pools now in Cambrils/Sanguli from 2-3.
Must be a staff issue so they donāt have to roster cover for breaks.

My wordā¦ It looks low key but the food was unreal there. Compared to the tourist traps down the road in the main area who charged more for average fare.
Confirmed by my man on the ground, although their saying its for cleaning. TBF itās ideal, gives a bit of structure rather than dragging the kids out for lunch. They wont have a choice.
