Default 3K to go on holiday where to tho

Right, want another holiday but its got to be cheapish (3k between 4 of us) in Europe and in a villa with a pool. Want to be near the beach and some restaurants/bars but not too loud/busy. Will hire a car so want a place with stuff to see/do. Any recommendations, anyone??

I have got Australia booked for this year. all in it will cost Ł2310 for 2 adults and 2 kids, Ł270 flying BMI from Glasgow to Heathrow.
Ł2039 for Malaysian Airlines to Sydney on 20th October and return home 17th November.
luckily I have relatives that I can stay with and get discount on car hire while there.

For 3k you should be able to get somewhere half decent.

tho for villas check out www.jamesvillals.co.uk http://www.jamesvillas.co.uk/late-deals.cfm 2/3 months before for some good deals, especially if after the school holidays.


My choice would be Cyprus, ayia napa, protaras etc, my favorite island in europe for a quality holiday, ( 4 weeks time ill be there )

I'd go long haul without doubt. Highly recommend this place. Not a villa, but all in and an excellent standard. You should be able to get in within budget. Cheap as chips and beautiful http://www.donasylvia.com/index1.html (Southern Goa, India)
