Adult family holiday suggestions- Mams 60th

San Sebastián is a great place, wouldn’t be as hot as canaries etc. but a far better holiday

The food may be a bit to good for you 🫣

playa blanca either.

COSTA ADEJE, in Tenerife,nicest of the resort types in any of the Canaries IMO. Don't bother with mainland Spain at that time of year,weather too unpredictable

Italy

You won't find reliable good weather in March, in Italy or the food they want

yup, I second Portugal… also find more likely to speak English than in Spain if that's a factor

Alicante or Valencia, neither might be swimming weather but decent enough. Valencia is a beautiful city, loads to do and also beach area 15 mins away by bus/tram/uber. The city itself is always buzzing, areas like Rustafa.

I was in San Sebastián this June and also great city but weather was rainier than Ireland! Although a little quiet vs Valencia.

Radisson Morgan Gran Canaria or Le Jardim Tecina La Gomera.

Benidorm is an awful place.

Looks like a Sheffield high street at closing time all day.

They won't find the type of food there that the OP wrote in her list

There are Irish Pubs in Cannes, Nice, Antibes, Monaco.

Burger joints, pizza restaurants, English Pubs.

Plus the options of steak, seafood, French cuisine etc.

That whole coast is Anglicised so food won't be a problem and neither will there be a language barrier.

My wife is a very fussy eater (typical boiled Irish cr*p) and she does not have a problem finding something to eat.

Loads of restaurants, just walk along, take a look at the menus. There is bound to be something that suits everyone.

I used to travel over with work quite often then went over on personal trips.

It's easy to get to. Both Cryanair and Aer Lingus fly into Nice Airport (only one airport for commercial flights).

If you stay either in Nice or Cannes (even Antibes) you can't go wrong because that can be a base for day trips up the coast to Monaco or south as far as St Tropez by train.

If you are willing to drive, then you have much more flexibility, but not entirely necessary.

One of my favourite things to do is sit outside this pizzeria in Monaco near the harbour, close to the train station and have some wine and pizza while watching supercars zoom past. Cheap, delicious pizza, excellent wine.

Another place is the Fairmont MonteCarlo hotel. On Sunday they do an open buffet menu. It's expensive at €99 (with champagne) but excellent quality and something for everyone.

A trip into the Casino Montecarlo is great for the experience and a drink (passport and decent attire required - no shorts etc).

Nice and Cannes have loads of restaurants, cafes and bars at different price points.

Some beaches are pay to access, others are free.

Cannes Harbour is a must do, to see how the other 1% live the super yacht lifestyle.

The last time we spent €90 each for an all day sailing yacht cruise with all food and drinks included. Booked at Cannes Harbour the night before directly with the owners.

It all can be as cheap or as expensive as you want. A bit of planning wouldn't go amiss.

funny enough I’m in Spain at the moment along with literally thousands of others and nobody has said to me they wanted “tourists out”. Do you get out much yourself?
