Flyer talkers' favourite family summer beach hotels on BA routes
Am I allowed to ask in this forum for people's favourite beachy high quality family hotels they might find on a typical BA route/destination? Proper sandy beaches, quality furnishings, good food. Budget circa Ł10k (incl flights - doesn't have to be premium cabins) for 2 weeks August family of 5...
Esp interested with thoughts on:
Corsica
Sardinia
Curaçao
Aruba
Bonaire
Elba
Malta
Gozo
Madeira
Mods please move/delete if inappropriate to ask but all you lovely flyer talkers are always such a great source of info and having spent most summers in our own apartment in spain, I've not much experience on the hotel front. Trip advisor always seems such a minefield. Thanks for any suggestions.

Two ideas for Sardinia. I've never been, but I know of people that have been and they seem to be solid properties:
- Forte Village Resort - Bouganville
- Pullman Timi Ama Sardegna

I would certainly avoid the Caribbean in summer months - hot, sticky, and in some places hurricane season (although Aruba is not in the hurricane belt). Having once been stuck at 9 in a single hotel room because of a hurricane, I can confirm that it is not a great choice for a family holiday!!

Tenerife?
Some nice end hotels in the Costa Adeje part (well away from Playa de las Americas!) and I used to holiday there when Jnr P was younger.
There is
Loro Parque
Mt Teide (4 x 4 all day trip with some wonderful stopping places/views)
Waterpark
Re hotels, H10, Iberostars and the Costa Adeje Gran Hotel are very good indeed
Just another option to consider perhaps.
