Hi looking to take the family to Spain in the summer holidays so looking for hotel recommendations please, it will be 2 adults and 2 children aged 14 and 11, something nice and not full of chavs lol. Thanks
Where in Spain?
something nice and not full of chavs lol
I can recommend "France"
Not to bothered where by the coast though.
Budget? North Spain is fairly chav-free, but less guarantee of good weather. I spent a week just to the north of Platja d'Aro on the Costa Brava, no chavs there either.
No budget really I suppose it's gonna cost between 2 and 3K
Valencia is pretty nice.
Big sandy beach, pretty cool city. Not sure of hotels though
Get yourself a villa/house/apartment on airBnB in somewhere nice.
Valencia is a good call, Barcelona and Alicante worth a look at.
I tend to stay at the Paradors when I'm traveling around there which are pretty much chav free but tbh where I go is very Spanish Lorca/Aguilas ๐
For a full-on Spanish experience somewhere like Denia or Torrevieja would be an idea, they're very much Spanish costal towns with lots of Spanish families. We go to Torrevieja on a semi-regular basis - my wife's family has a place there - and while it's certainly not the most glamorous of locations it has a beach, a fun fair, decent and reasonably priced restaurants, a bit of nightlife, and even a couple of museums and things to do apart from lounging on the beach and eating too much. And no chavs to be seen ๐
Does it have to be a hotel? Some nice villas to rented, like this one...

Owned & run by a very nice fella off here, not me though.
+1 for the Paradores
Some of them are fantastic, some less so. Well worth researching them.
Can I also recommend the 'Glamping' option.

I can personally recommend http://www.awanatura.com too. Eve is a great host and produces some excellent food.
