EXCEPTIONAL FAMILY HOLIDAYS

a taste of our

medholidays

If I had to imagine the perfect summer family holiday,

it would include lazy days relaxing by the pool, al fresco

dinners, children’s laughter, beautiful sunsets, the

chance to spend time with my family and

to really relax and unwind.

We have taken all these ingredients and added our

exceptional staff of hosts, chefs and childcare

specialists, to create the perfect Mediterranean

holiday for you and your family.

Andrew Dunn

All of our Mediterranean holidays offer the perfect escape for you, your family and friends but most of all, your children.

05

Our Mediterranean holidays are designed with you in mind... we have some great options including eight private villas and two resorts to choose from.

VillasOur villa guests in Mallorca and Portugal will find handpicked luxurious properties, from sprawling country houses close to the beach, to rustic farmhouses nestled amongst rolling hills. All are beautifully furnished and extremely comfortable, with stunning private pools. Your Scott Dunn villa comes complete with a chef, fully qualified nanny/activity specialist and at larger villas, a host.

Resorts If you prefer the options a resort has to offer, Pine Cliffs or Moliets is the perfect choice.

Pine Cliffs offers excellent family accommodation. This first class hotel in Portugal has great sporting activities along with a fantastic beach and exclusive Scott Dunn children’s club. Our Moliets private villas, feature Scott Dunn staff on top of all the facilities the resort has to offer.

Scott Dunn childcareAll our childcare staff are fully qualified and then trained again by Scott Dunn, so whichever type of holiday you choose, you can be sure your children will be cared for and happy…

Our villas in Mallorca and Portugal have everything you could need on your holiday, from toys and games to baby bouncers and all the essential baby equipment. Our ‘super-nannies’ will make sure your children have a fantastic time and will entertain them with everything from swimming races in your villa’s pool, perfecting their football skills or exploring the surroundings for wildlife.

At Moliets, we have nannies and activity specialists available to flexibly fit in with your needs and requirements. With so many activities on offer from surfing, horse riding or cycling, they’ll make sure both you and your children get the most out of your holiday.

We understand that different ages thrive off different activities, that’s why at Pine Cliffs we offer a range of childcare options. Our youngest guests, from as young as 4 months will be in the expert care of our private nannies. From 8 months to 13 years, our Scott Dunn children’s club has 4 different groups covering a whole range of activities to maximise fun. These include kite flying, sandcastle building, ball games and water park trips. The club is the perfect place for your children to make new friends, learn new skills but ultimately to have a fantastic holiday.

07

Attention to detailAll our staff are handpicked by Scott Dunn and trained to provide high levels of service with the utmost attention to detail. Our mantra is ‘nothing is too much trouble’.

All our villa holidays include staff. Your chef will provide you and your family with delicious breakfasts, healthy lunches and gourmet dinners under the stars. All are prepared using the best, locally sourced ingredients creating meals that will tantalise your taste buds.

Most villas also have a host who will work effortlessly behind the scenes to make sure that you have exactly what you want, when you want.

09

Outstanding valueWe understand that this year more than ever, value for money is a really important component of your holiday. Whatever holiday option you choose, you can be sure that you will be receiving excellent value but not compromising on a wonderful holiday for every member of your family.

Moliets is brilliant for those who love an outdoor, healthy holiday taking advantage of all the activities available in a resort environment, but who do not require 5★ accommodation. The beach and surfing are always a popular attraction to this part of France and children especially love getting about the resort on some of the numerous bike trails through the pine forest. For golfers, there is a Robert Trent Jones designed course, used by the PGA qualifying tour.
