Describing itself as offering affordably family holidays, and able to accommodate special needs (one of the directors is the mother of a special needs child).
The EHS Selection is a predominantly Spanish and Portuguese range of five-star, self-catering centres, as well as some hotels, chosen for standards of service, location or the building itself.
Will ask clients for their criteria and then advise on the best property to suit.

Modern resort developments, generally five-star with multiple central facilities. Reports that most are not available from the bigger name tour operators.

The Four Seasons Country Club on the Algarve offers a creche; the Altona Golf and Country Club as it offers babysitting; and the Four Seasons Vilamoura a summer children's club programme, as does the Four Seasons Fairways.
