Teen-friendly villas
We know what it’s like. Just a minute ago it was songs in the bath and bedtime stories and suddenly they’re looking to the future with a whole new set of priorities – not all of which include parents! A successful holiday with teenagers requires a few key ingredients: plenty of opportunity for shared experiences, a reasonably central location and the space to allow some privacy for all.
Our teen-friendly villas have been especially chosen for their locations; places that make it easy for everyone to spread their wings and let off steam a little, without the need for constant adult supervision or transportation. So if your teenagers want to walk to the beach club, padel courts or a teen-friendly bar they can, leaving you to do your thing, knowing they'll be back when food is required. Our local concierge teams are a mine of info too, so they'll be able to help guide your teens to age-appropriate venues and activities.
Kalkan is a top choice for holidays with teenagers, with its trendy beach clubs and Instagram-worthy rooftop restaurants. Skopelos Town offers a similar atmosphere on a smaller scale. If you're taking sporty teenagers on holiday, the cool surf vibe along the Aquitaine coast in France is a real draw, with a great range of vegan restaurants for the health and planet-conscious too. For truly top-of-the-range sports facilities, consider Carvoeiro or Vale do Lobo in the Algarve's Golden Triangle, which also has brilliant Uber cover in case they do want to head out further than they can walk home.
Holidays with teenagers can feel like a minefield, but with a little planning and help from the experts, you can all have the best time together. Take a look at our teen-friendly property list below for more inspiration.
