Phokaia Beach Resort (Mark Warner)

Foça, İzmir Province, Turkey

Not the most opulent resort on this list, but few places do the childcare half of the holiday as well. A long-established British operator runs separate clubs from toddlers to older teens, adds evening care so parents can have dinner on the waterfront, and fills the day with tennis, sailing and paddleboarding. Foça itself is a gentle fishing town rather than a resort strip.
