Small Families Holidays - Quality Holidays for Single Parents

Small Families Holidays is a holiday company with a difference. We specialise in providing overseas holidays only for single parent families. All our holidays are escorted by our own Small Families full time host and we use only 4 and 5 star hotels in high quality family resorts. Established in 2002, we have a tried and tested format that has proven very popular with our single parents. Under the traditional mass market tour operators, single parent families have often 'drawn the short straw' when it comes to family holidays - Insensitive tour operators and hotels, lack of understanding about single parent needs, single supplements and other hidden 'extras'. Travelling alone with young children, especially overseas, can often be a daunting prospect and the most common comment we hear from our customers is their feeling of loneliness and lack of other single adult company (especially in the evenings), this is never an issue with Small Families Holidays.

How does a Small Families holiday work?

We meet our families at the departure airport and fly out together,* (by which time, new friendships are usually already in the making), we have a private transfer coach to our hotel. There is no regimentation of our groups, it's your holiday and you are obviously free to do your own thing, although we do find many of our group spend time together during the day simply because they've made friends, both adults and children. We generally meet up for a pre-dinner drink before dining together at our reserved restaurant tables; dinner is a great social time for the group. Your Small Families host is always on hand to ensure your holiday runs smoothly and any problems are dealt with. *NOTE: This is not always possible if you are flying from a regional airport or when your host may already be in the resort, however, in each case, you will still be greeted on arrival at your destination airport by a Small Families Holidays representative and transported to your hotel where you will meet your host and fellow Small Families guests.

Flights - Scheduled v Charters

To make the travel experience as comfortable and stress free as possible, we almost always use scheduled flights. Charters suffer a higher risk of delays and cancellations and many of the flight timings operate at unsocial hours. Scheduled flight timings are generally more social (always important where children are involved), have more legroom and always take priority over charters. That said, we may offer a charter flight sometimes when our clients have asked for destinations that are only served by charters....for further details, please look at our website, or call now on 0845 9000 895 or 01767 650312
