Hi Pippa, welcome to the forum, nothing is guaranteed as regards holidays, different people fall in love with different places, i found Calis about 10 years ago, i haven't been anywhere else since, and now i live here i still love it, don't know what it is about the place, but from the first visit i have felt so at home here, i've never brought young children with me so someone else will have to tell you that side of it, but for me it is the perfect chill out holiday spot.
