Algarve- Portugal seems to be popular for parents who wants to have a night (or more ) off from the kids

(only kidding of course )

Hi All,

I'm interested in taking Mrs B0redom and baby B0redom (10 months old on Xmas day) on holiday in January. We're after some sunshine, so were thinking of somewhere like the Carribean or Dubai. Ideally we want a nice 5* hotel resort with a spa.

We've never taken baby B0redom further than Spain before, and ideally we'd like somewhere we can get a babysitter onsite for the night if we fancy a night off.

Can anyone recommend anywhere?

Cheers...

I have never been to the Carribean but can't really fault your thinking. You should get some sun, there are plenty of 5* resports out there and almost all of that quality will offer baby sitting services.

I have just done a 3 week trip to Aus with oracleslave jnr who is 13 months and it was fine. Jet lag disrupts their routine a bit but then thats to be expected.

Have a good trip.

Go for it. The travel was easier than we expected even though we were in cattle class.

If you go to Dubai look at ajman. Its the smallest Emirate - but close to all action. Lovely beach. We stayed in a gr8 5* place which was cheap too - PM me if you want and I will send the name (I would need to ask Mrs BP)
