The advice depends on your budget. Turkey is now "transcendental", and in connection with the latest events in Egypt, it will definitely rise in price!
аватар Alexandr-
So I say - PolikSVT, hand over your Egyptian vouchers before it's too late.

City of departure, budget - the beginning of the question)))
There are a lot of hotels in Turkey for kids, excellent and just very excellent. And no one will convince me that in Greece or Bulgaria you can get as much EXACTLY children's entertainment and such children's infrastructure as in Turkey)))
Our first hotel in Turkey was Dolphin Botanic. Went with my daughter when she was 3 years old. Then two more times. Then there were Marty Mira and Pirates Beach... but the Botanist is still "first love". Although now I won’t go back there - I fell in love with the regions of Kemer and Marmaris too much ...

we went with a 3-year-old kid to Turkey, in Side and did not fail: the sea is warm, sand, slides, animation. at the age of 4 we were in Kemer. the child was always busy, satisfied and did not push. when he grew up, they were both in Cyprus and in Bulgaria. there children's leisure is somewhat different, it is better to go there with a 6-7 year old, when children have fun even without animators. although look at the budget, you can always find a compromise.

"And no one will convince me that in Greece or Bulgaria you can get as much EXACTLY children's entertainment and such children's infrastructure as in Turkey)))"
Exactly. I am now looking for a normal hotel at an adequate price for September / October for a family with a child of one and a half years old on a sandy beach and with a warm sea. Turkey was horrified by prices, let me, I think, look at Greece - everyone praises! Fig. What is comparable to Turkey in terms of conditions is even more expensive. And the fact that everyone praises has at least some minus. Either the beach is across the road (90% of hotels), then there is no alla, then the territory is bald, then solid steps ...
аватар Trisha75
The same story. We are with you, Pachok, in the same "breaking")))
Every year I force myself to try to find an alternative to Turkey, and every year I give up these disembodied searches and, gritting my teeth, book Turkey at the price that is, because I still haven’t found anything better for my two Karapets 11 and 4 years old ((- the most important argument is that when they have "a lot of interesting things", then I will have time to calmly read and relax, and not constantly take them off myself (in the truest sense of the word) and invent entertainment for them)))
аватар PolikSVT
Oh, Greece)))) Last year, what my grandchildren and I spent 10 days at 65 thousand, including visas, now costs 127 !!! (not to be unfounded - hotel Littos Beach 4+ on Crete). And such a price for all hotels where the infrastructure for children and the comfort of adults resembles Turkey))) And what costs 70 thousand now is 1-3 km from the sea, with a scanty territory, unimportant or no animation, paid umbrellas, sunbeds and without towels)))) Or everything more or less decent in terms of price-quality ratio at the beginning of June was already in the "stop")))

ahaha)))
But many in December yelled"Turkey is more expensive than Greece "!
"Greece is more profitable"!!
))))
Time has put everything in its place, as always.

In Greece last summer everything was sooo expensive outside the hotel. It is true that animation and children's entertainment is better in Turkey. If that's what matters, listen to Pachok, she's special. We didn’t like Turkey, we were once, perhaps we chose the wrong hotel. For us, Bulgaria is best with a mild climate (it is very stuffy in Turkey) and the absence of a language barrier. In August it is very comfortable there. But it all depends on the budget. Good hotels in good resorts are not cheap, August is the most expensive period.
аватар LyolyaS
if for the first time "abroad", and a child of the right age for animation and water slides, then definitely Turkey!
my son is a year old in the summer and I'm leaning towards Greece, because. we just need clean, quiet and sea)))
аватар PolikSVT
Alexandr-, there is nothing to rent, they didn’t book it))) Circumstances are such that in May you will have to go, wherever you can))) And if in maintaining the topic ... I have been trying to "change" Turkey for more than a year, BUT in terms of price- the quality for a holiday with a child is even better not invented))) And in August I don’t advise you to go to the Mediterranean coast, heat and humidity) better consider Marmaris and Fethiye, the climate is more comfortable.
аватар Trisha75
I will support Marmaris and Fethi for August, not so hot, and the water is just as warm.
But in Marmaris, unfortunately, I can’t recommend a good hotel for a child with animation, a playground and other joys of life ... I was in apart-hotels in Marmaris, in Agean Park and Kaya Maris - this is not 5 * and not at all children's hotels, although I rested with the kids, but they are experienced tourists, and here for the first time ...
In Fethiye, Letonia is good, but you have to walk up the stairs, if the child is active, everything will be fine, but if the child is lazy, then kaput to mother's hands)))
аватар Trisha75
In Side, I personally really liked Defne Star and Defne Anna (territory, food, the beach is generally a fairy tale!), But again - not child-oriented, and there is no Russian-speaking staff, animation in German and English ... But Defne Defnem, which is sold to our market - complete seams in my opinion, bald territory, huge building, loud music... brrr...

I travel with kids from 11 months. The eldest is 4 years old, will be in Turkey 6 times this year. We go 2 times. In my opinion, there is nothing better than Turkey for children of this age. If you take not exorbitant prices for other countries. For children, the most important thing is a sandy beach, a shallow sea with a good entrance. I love Side the most for its long coastline and beautiful sandy beaches. The last time that year was in Side Princess 5 *. were very satisfied. Good food, great selection. Nice beach and where to walk in the evenings. Gorgeous promenade. In Side, I love the Kyumkoy area. If Alanya is Avsalar, very good sandy beaches.

I don’t know the prices for Turkey, but to compare prices for good hotels in Bulgaria in the resort of Albena (ideal with children). Prices without road and visas for all inclusive with good food. There is no need for 5 *, it's good in 4 * and even 3 *, a beautiful beach, a wonderful climate. For 9 days, 2+1 children. Hotel Gergana 4 * - 1280 euros, Laguna garden (mare) 4 * - 1090, Sandy beach 4 * - 1155, Nona 3 * - 900, Mura 3 * -1025. Don't know. whether they are outrageous or not.
аватар gala0909
What month is this for and how many nights? I found out the prices for Bulgaria from 120,000 rubles for 10 nights in a 4 * hotel. I think that for Bulgaria it is very expensive
аватар irina_1901
gala0909. It's for 9 nights until August 15, then cheaper. Prices without road and visas. And in Russia they sell in packages, probably it takes you a lot to fly. It also depends on the number of people. If there are 4 of you, then they may not be accommodated in a standard room, and apartments, of course, are more expensive. If you need details, please write to me. I know the resorts and hotels in Bulgaria well.
аватар gala0909
I understand why the prices are like that. We were offered a large house by the sea in Bulgaria for August for 65 euros per day, but I calculated the flight of 1200 euros for 4 + visa + transfer + meals............ Just 100,000 and it comes out. and I'm going to Turkey for 124,000 to rest 2 times, in May for 2 weeks and at the end of August for 11 nights ...... therefore ....
Full package Bulgaria from Moscow with a flight in August all 150000 and more
аватар Alexandr-
In Bulgaria, all the beaches are urban. Hotels do not have their own beaches. Accordingly, there is no bar on the beach, free sun loungers, mattresses, etc...
What is "all inclusive"? ))))
It’s even awkward to choose between Bulgaria and Turkey ....

gala0909. In May and until June 10, prices for Bulgaria are also ridiculous. Significant discounts also begin on August 23, and prices are also low in September. But you can’t swim in May, but you can swim until mid-September. Alexander, you are wrong. There are many municipal beaches in Bulgaria, but not all. In that Albena, which I wrote about, there are free sunbeds and umbrellas on the beaches and by the pools. Hotels of the 1st line right on the beach. We usually occupy the middle row, between the sea and the pool bar. And you can sunbathe by the pool with a bar and animation, and swim - take a few steps to the sea. I do not want to offend the feelings of Turkish lovers, but I like the cuisine and climate of Bulgaria more. We also go to other places, there is an opportunity to relax 2 times a year. But there is a special love for Bulgaria, somehow we feel comfortable in it. And, of course, there are flaws everywhere.
аватар gala0909
The fact of the matter is that in Bulgaria you can swim only from the end of June, because this is the Black Sea. And in Turkey in May it’s great (I’ve been traveling for 10 years already). In Cyprus, in May, the sea was also cold, 20 degrees. I have been traveling for a long time and have been to many countries. But for a beach holiday with children, both in price and quality, at the moment, only Turkey. Although it grows in price every year and all the time you think that it cannot be higher ..... In Greece it is problematic to find a good sandy beach, and in Bulgaria decent hotels are very expensive. Moreover, now the euro is already 50 rubles and the prices for Europe are cosmic ..... I really look at the prices for Greece and Bulgaria and Spain every year since January ..... there is nothing cheaper than Turkey

I looked at all Bulgarian 5 * from the Teza catalog.
I did not find it with free sun loungers, mattresses and a beach bar.

I don’t understand at all why only a SANDY beach is needed for a holiday with a child ??? What is wrong with my beloved Kemer with its gorgeous nature and unique air? I will never exchange it for bald Side and Belek! The crystal clear sea is important for a child! And in Kemer, waves are a rarity, unlike Alanya, Side, etc. And in good Kemer hotels, the beaches are already covered with crystalline sand. Yes, and a small pebble is very useful for the feet of the child. The kids love to play with rocks. Yes, there is sand nearby. And the airport too
аватар gala0909
Because when my child was 1.4 years old and we went to Belek, and for some reason at the entrance to the sea there was a strip of pebbles, the child refused to go into the sea. Not a single small child will voluntarily walk on stones. I also went to Kemer ...... no longer pulls. And to go to the sea to walk in rubber slippers because of the stones .... what's the point. Sand and grass, by the way, are no less useful for children's legs.

**No small child will voluntarily walk on stones.**
ahaha)))
Please do not speak on behalf of all small children))))
It must be understood that in Kemer, not all beaches have CLOUDS of stones)))
аватар gala0909
I understand what stones are in Kemer because I was there. I have at least 2 children who go to an orthopedic kindergarten and, believe me, I know for sure what is needed for children's legs. You are relaxing with a child who, as I understand it, is at least 5, or even more. Therefore, do not compare small children and yours.
аватар Alexandr-
My daughter met Kemer last summer when she was 11.
Months)))
аватар gala0909
and you carried her in your arms)))) at 11 months I was also at sea with my second daughter.
аватар Alexandr-
This year she will run by herself.
Once again, you just need to carefully look at the hotel's beach. In some Belbedi, of course, there are terrible options. And in Kemer itself, Garden Resort Beach is just a fairy tale.
