Abu Soma, Egypt

Sarah, 43, and David Bryden, 42, from London, parents to Jessica, 3, and Gabriella, 2, went to the Mark Warner resort at the Intercontinental Hotel.

“This five-star resort hotel on the Red Sea is popular with young families thanks to the fantastic childcare (available for children from 4 months to 17 years). There’s a spa, a sandy beach and a great range of sports and watersports (some included, some not) for either enthusiasts or first-timers. The palm trees, grass, and landscaped gardens, make the resort lovely to wander around.”

Holiday highlight

“Gabriella and Jessica loved the children’s club and became quite attached to the nannies, which gave David and I time to ourselves.”

“With the pound weakened against the dollar, Egypt is a much better option for out-of-season sun than the Caribbean.”

Essential info

Seven days half-board accommodation for a family of two adults and two under 5s, including flights and transfers, costs £3,096. Activities and daily childcare (for half a day) also included. Upgrade to full days’ childcare is an extra £160. Under 2s travel for £100 and children 5 and above get six full days childcare included. To book, call 0871 703 3887 or see www.markwarner.co.uk.
