· In Goa I recommend Laguna Anjuna which is hip, stylish and has a small children's pool as well as a beautiful large freeform pool. They have some two-bedroom cottages which are ideal for families. If you are looking for a more budget child-friendly beach option, Bakti Kutir in Palolem (one of Goa's best beaches), has simple two-bedroom huts from £10 a night. You can read our detailed reviews and pictures of both properties at i-escape.com/indiagoaaccommodation.php.
