When you’re on your jollies, you want to relax, let loose, explore and have the best time ever. It’s as simple as that. But if you’ve got teenagers in tow, who aren’t quite old enough to branch out on their own yet, you’ve got to do your research into the sort of family holidays that will work for everyone. That’s where we come in, as teen-friendly breaks are a doddle for us. Though you don’t have to just take our word for it...

So, if you’re on the brink of booking but you aren’t sure how to get your brood to play ball, take a look below.

Jet2holidays’ top tips for travelling with teenagers

• The golden rule whenever you travel with us is to look out for our friendly Red Team, because they’re always happy to help, give recommendations and even just say hi to you.
• From buffet dining to multiple pools, dedicated games rooms to sports academies, our hotels really lay on the lot for teenagers. Think waterparks by day, entertainment by night. So it’s well worth having a good browse of our collection!
• If you make it about them, you can’t go too far wrong. We’re talking enticing them to some of the most popular landmarks and hidden gems, all with the promise of them getting Insta-worthy snaps.
• Likewise, even letting them have a say in the itinerary is worthwhile. To teens, they’re still going abroad with their parents, so they’ll need to feel as though their agenda’s in mind too.
• If there aren’t any Wi-Fi issues, there aren’t any nightmares in store. In this day and age, staying connected means being synced to the internet. We’ll list on our website if your hotel or villa has free Wi-Fi, and our properties usually do! That’s one tick in the box.
• Their eyes bigger than their stomachs? This goes back to our hotels offering loads of choices, but the board option you pick could really sway them. Food is even more glorious to you both when you’re on budget-guarding All Inclusive.
• Some of our properties also have large, interconnecting rooms to make that family togetherness possible but without being on top of each other or cramping anyone’s style. Privacy and a little space literally goes a long way!
