Would you recommend it for a 21 year old couple and a 2 year old baby?

If you're thinking about the Canary Islands Playa Blanca in Lanzarote would suit you down to the ground, especially with a little one

The Yumbo centre in PDI is yes

And our hotel was just behind it

The Irish bit (Aguera Roca?) is the best for night life out of season IMO

yup stayed in playa des ingles, brilliant place but we had a car so traveled around the island a bit, as there is some awesome places if you travel in land - like vineyards etc.
Only thing i recommend, if you are driving, is to stick to the main motorway that runs to the East of the island - we took the "scenic" route on the west and it took us around 4hrs due to the winding moutain roads which are pretty dodgy in some places (although you do get to see a lot of the non-commericial side of the island).

Pretty hot though and worth visiting
