How to read this. Star-tier prices are live Agoda rates for 2 adults, per night over a 7-night stay, captured 24 October 2026 — before local taxes, so checkout will be a little higher. The all-inclusive lists are a curated, conservative pick of well-known family resorts (Agoda's feed doesn't expose board type); always confirm board basis and dates on Agoda before booking.

🇪🇸 Majorca

The default UK family island: shallow Alcúdia beaches, a wall of all-inclusive resorts and the shortest flight of the big hitters.
