Keeping both adults and younger guest entertained is a tricky balance. This might mean an on-site waterpark and kids club, as well as a great bar and evening entertainment for the older guests.
And many of easyJet holidays resorts are right by beautiful beach towns and cities, so there is more than enough to do outside of the hotels as well.
All of their packages come with return flights, as well as transfers and 23kg of baggage and ABTA and ATOL protection.
We've rounded up four amazing destinations that have beaches, attractions and unique nature to keep families entertained - as well as an easyJet holidays resort nearby.

Alanya
Smaller than its neighbour Antalya, the Turkish Riviera's Alanya still has enough to keep both adults and kids busy.
The town's main attraction is its 13th century fortress, Alanya Castle which is worth walking round for the views alone (you can get a cable car to keep those with little legs happy).
If you are seeking a day at the seaside, you will want to head to Kleopatra Beach - named after the Egyptian Queen who legend says bathed there. There's a huge 2km stretch of soft white sand and its great for kids too.
There are all of the facilities you could want from showers and toilets to nearby playgrounds and sunloungers, although some you will need to pay for.

Don't worry about getting too cold either - the town has 300 days of sunshine a year.
Just because Alanya is smaller, don't think you can't have a good night out. Head back to the harbour which is where you will find the buzzing nightlife.
It might be difficult to get the kids to leave your hotel though. The four-star Eftalia Village resort has huge pools as well its own aquapark with tropical tower, pirate ship and water slides on-site.
STAY: easyJet holidays has seven nights' all-inclusive at the 4* Eftalia Village in Antalya from £332pp including Gatwick flights on April 25, 2025, 23kg of luggage and transfers.

Tenerife
The largest of the Canary Islands, Tenerife has all of the beaches, bars and restaurants loved by British holidaymakers.
But the island has much more to it, from paragliding to hiking up Mount Tiede (the world's third largest volcano) or exploring Anaga rainforest, the only one on the island.
At the upmarket resort town of Costa Adeje there is a bit of everything if you want a thrill or chill.
Here you can opt for an afternoon wind surfing of jet skiing. Get into the swing of things at Golf Costa Adeje or book a boat tour to spot whales and dolphins.
Don't forget to visit Siam Park, often voted the world's best waterpark, with splashing rides and slides that will keep the kids amused all day.
And the three-star Laguna Park is the perfect base - it's right by the beach and is just three minutes by car to Siam Park.
STAY: easyJet holidays has seven nights' all-inclusive at the 3* Laguna Park 1 in Tenerife from £387pp including flights from Gatwick on December 3, 2024, 23kg luggage and transfers.

Fuerteventura
While smaller than Tenerife, the Canary Island's Fuerteventura is still a contender for amazing weather into the winter, enjoying balmy temperatures in the early 20 degrees.
One of the unique activities is going dune buggying across the Corralejo Natural Park, exploring the volcanic landscape with kids able to take part in the action.
The island is even known for its cheese - so why not go on a goats cheese making experience?
When its time to decompress, the island's golden beaches are often compared to the Caribbean, with the clear waters stretching out for miles.
One of the most famous is the Popcorn Beach - called Playa del Bajo de la Burra - where the sand looks like, you guessed it, pieces of popcorn (just make sure to leave it behind).
If you want something more peaceful, don't miss out on a day trip to Costa de Antigua, a quiet town with museums, nature trails and white-washed buildings.
The three-star Elba Lucia Sport and Suite Hotel has all you could want for some activity too, with facilities for tennis, squash, basketball, and the trendy new padel.
STAY: easyJet holidays offers seven nights' half-board at the 3* Elba Lucia Sport and Suite Hotel in Fuerteventura from £288pp including Birmingham flights on November 21, 2024, 23kg of luggage and transfers.

Tunisia
Tunisia is seeing a boom in holidaymakers seeking winter sun without the hefty price tag.
The city of Sousse's main beach is a gorgeous 10km stretch of golden sands lined with palm trees.
But a venture into the city is worth it for a history lesson - there is the 15th century Medina of Hammamet as well as as the huge Sousse Archaeological Museum with an extensive collection of Roman artifacts.
But the smaller travellers may well prefer the thrills and splashing chills at Carthageland, North Africa's first theme park, with enough water rides to keep little ones cool.
Everyone will be happy with a stay at the Occidental Sousse Marhaba too.
