A MUM has sparked a debate online after revealing that she plans to go back to the same hotel on holiday as the year before.
Finding the perfect summer holiday spot can be difficult – especially when you're a family-of-four on a budget.
One mum thinks she may have found the solution, but it would mean venturing to the same hotel two years on the trot – and she wasn't convinced.
The forward-thinking holiday planner took to Mumsnet for some advice.
She wrote: "Last year we found somewhere that ticked all the boxes, it was affordable, near to a beautiful big beach, good food, clean hotel with several pools, splash bit for the younger one, lane pool for me, decent low-key entertainment andsports bar for the teenager.
"I was surprised how nice it was because I'd never been on anall-inclusive holiday before.

"The trouble is that now I just can't seem to find anywhere that looks as good, certainly not for the money, so I'm torn between booking the same place or taking a chance on somewhere else."
The mum's dilemma divided users in the comments because some were in favour of "repeat" holidays, while others weren't.
One wrote: "We go to Crete and have booked the same hotel for the 4th time.
"While we have been to other places, we don't like them as much and feel it's a bit of a waste."

Another added: "We've been to the same hotel in Turkey twice in a row and I'd happily go next year too."
But other users offered different advice including those who wouldn't go back to the same hotel.
One person wrote: "We have a visit twice only rule, the same 'country', but different accommodation."
Someone else added: "Never, there is a whole world out there, every visit to the same place is a new place not discovered."
A third wrote: "It has to be a new place each time."
Meanwhile another mum also divided opinions after claiming that a screaming child ruined her holiday.
