Love the idea of some winter sun. And we also have booked a holiday. Malta in October, the travel agent matched the internet price and then actually came up with a 5* spa for only £10 extra each smile

Some years ago we did Lanzarote in February which was good excepting for a day of torrential rain that flooded the area for a few hours.

Sorry, haven't done any cruises, can't convince DH on the cruises.

Thinking of a winter sun holiday in Feb/March next year. We don't want to travel too far and DH wants a promenade, plus cafés and bars within walking distance. Can anybody suggest a good resort?
Have also looked at winter sun cruises, but reviews seem to suggest seas can be particularly choppy at that time of year. Has anybody any experience of these types of cruises to The Canaries or similar?
Any advice gratefully received.
