Pauline maybe the message I was trying to convey did not come over as I intended so I have removed it.
Put another way me personally would not leave a baby in an apartment/villa on their own where I don`t know who might have a key or such like for the door around the other side that you can`t see. 5 metres or 500 metres away. |

Sorry to be so blunt but I have followed this thread (without comment until now) and I don't understand what the problem is. Why don't you do what everyone else does & look on hundreds of websites who will have hundreds of properties that are more than suitable for what you need. They may not be perfect but they will be adequate for what you need and you will still have a great time. The fact that you are travelling with an infant is no big deal - we've all done it as do 1,000's of people every week - everything will be just fine. As I see it you have now wasted almost a month (from your first post) hoping that someone can offer you something on the cheap. Obviously the offers and suggestions you've had are, for one reason or another, not 100% what you want and don't tick all your boxes. Solution - reduce the number of boxes that need to be ticked Since your first post the price of flights, which as I understand you have not booked yet, will have gone up and the cost of accomodation will probaly have gone up too - I assume you are talking about 21st to 28th May 2016 or is this part of a 5 year plan? If you are on a budget there is no such thing as a perfect vila in a perfect location at a perfect price. If you're going to go then just get on with it. |

Can't be any worse than my local team Bolton Wanderers. What a shower they are, played like duck eggs all season. BTW Dicey well said re the topic in question , you have to compromise especially if you are on a budget.
BTW Paul hope I didn't offend you with my comment

Sorry to bother you all! I thought this forum was here for a reason.
You don't know people's circumstances so shouldn't comment if you've nothing nice to say. My husbands work has been an issue hence we've held out until his time is confirmed. I'm a nervous flyer so hence ive been reluctant to book - esp with an infant which I do feel is a 'big deal' actually! I have searched and will do things in my own time. Thank you and good night |

And clearly tonisdad has a problem with me letting my children sleep safely in my own villa ! What, precisely, is the difference between that and them sleeping safely at home....And what do you know of the layout of my villa and its doors ? I am really horribly offended that you would liken me to idiots who think its OK to leave their children in a different building all evening. Wow.

Yes very sad to see Bolton being so poor this season. Hope next season brings more joy. And Pauline you did not offend me at all I have no problem with people having different opinions to mine. |

Hold on a minute
To book a villa for our latest trip it took me well over a month of constant searching through owners direct and home away and every other villa site before I managed to find one that suited our needs/wants. To put things in perspective in regards to taking a little one.When myself and my partner go away we take our 4 children,1 who is a toddler and one who is a disabled teenager, we also take my disabled mother in a wheelchair and not forgetting the 4 x suitcases and hand luggage.We book the villa,the hire cars,airport parking and flights all ourselves with no help from anyone. So to put it simple,if we can do it,anyone can do it. |

One of mine is a baby-ish and it was my post you quoted, therefore my comments you took exception to.
And there's no need to be so rude. I didn't call you names, why call me names ?

That became unnecessarily bad tempered. We've probably lost a member.
A bad show altogether.
