My general advice for holidaying with kids:

We have found the secret to enjoyable holidays is doing activities that are kid friendly and age appropriate most of the time. Holidays where we go places and have to keep them in the pram most of the time don't work for us. They get cross and cranky about being made to sit still all day, they don't burn off the energy they want and they don't get to explore. They get frustrated and in turn chuck tantrums and make the whole experience pretty unpleasant. If we do things that we know meet their needs, we find we all have a much better holiday.

The other advice is - research and plan before you go. I know it kills some of the holiday sponteneity, but knowing where you are going to eat dinner each night and having a booking can make such a big difference between eating at 6pm - 6.30pm when the kids are still reasonable or eating at 8pm when they will scream the restaurant down and make a miserable experience for everyone.

If there is a buffet breakfast available as part of the package - go for it! It makes getting up in the mornings so much quicker and easier. You get up when your kids do, go down for b'fast already dressed and you can head out from there. There is usually fruit available which is great since we always seem to have lots of trouble fitting fresh fruit into our holidays (we tend to eat out the whole time because I am on holidays and think I shouldn't have to cook). We love our buffet breakfasts on holidays.

Your DD is still quite little and I guess it depends whether she sleeps in the pram for you depending on what you can do. She is also still at the stage where she is probably happy to be with you and not so concerned about where you are. So much depends on her temperament though. If she is likely to be making a bee line for the pool the whole time and won't sleep anywhere but her bed, it might end up being a lot of work and more stressful, but if she happily sits and plays and will sleep in her pram, then you might get away with it and have a great time. You know your own baby best so you have the best idea of what she can cope with.

All else failiing, go and see. You may need to be prepared to do things a bit differently, but you can make it work and still have a great holiday.

I don't know if that made much sense but I hope it did.

We are heading off to Sydney for 8 days in September and are so excited. We are staying in the CBD and have planned very busy days but very quiet nights (room service has been a life saver on many of our holidays in the last couple of years ) It is not how we would have done Sydney kid-free, but there are a whole heap of different kinds of adventures we can have with kids. The theatre and night life will be there when our kids have grown up, we only have them on holidays now for a little while when they are young. Having said that, my parents are planning on flying down for a night so they can babysit for us and we can go out to dinner

Hope you have a great holiday
