The girlfriend is banging on about booking a holiday so she can tell work some dates 
Ideally all inclusive would be good because of the free beer and cocktails all day but Half Board could be an option. I'd like to get a 4-star hotel somewhere that is quite close to the beach and doesn't attract many kids!!!
We'd be going end of June coming back in July, summer holidays for schools doesn't start until after that so hoping this will reduce numbers of brats.
Only question is, where? I'm thinking Menorca/Majorca/Ibiza and maybe Tenerife. Not after much nightlife just somewhere that has quite a few decent bars and nice surroundings.

I did have a quick look at Tsilvi, looks nice.
Can you recommend others that you've been to?

Went to Majorca last summer on an All Inclusive.
Place called Calas De Mallorca, hotel was called Club Cala Romani. Free bar from 9am till about 1am, food served from about 7am till 11pm.
We went in August and it cost £350 per person, which included transfers in Majorca.
Only spent about £150 while there between 2 of us cos we went out for a meal a couple of times and watched England twice and bought some prezzies.
Hotel was fantastic, had five-a-side footy everyday, massive pool, loads of sunbeds. Beach is about a 15 minute walk though but it's worth it.
I'd definitely recommend it if ya wanting a nice clean hotel, with free booze and a chilled out atmosphere

Quite a lot of families as it's quite a quiet resort. Not an unbareable amount of kids really tho. Not that many old people 
Quite a lot of couples as well.
Only downside is that there are quite a few foreigners (other than English). Probably about 70% were British but the Krouts and French were ok.
I had been to Magaluf and Faliraki with the missus for the previous two years and just wanted a chilled out holiday this time and we both really enjoyed it.

sounds good. I'm not really into clubbing or any of that hardcore shit would much prefer a drink in a lively bar to be honest.

use this site mate for reviews on hotel's
http://www.holidays-uncovered.co.uk
There are some good and some bad on the Club Cala Romani but most of them are good.
I suppose everyone has a different opinion and not everyone likes the same things but my opinion is that it's an excellent hotel and nice resort
