Family holidays in Italy offer so much more than a fortnight of pizza and pasta, though the extra carbs will definitely come in handy for all of the inclusive activities you’ll be taking part in. Our Airone Beachclub is tucked away in the beautiful region of Calabria. A laid back haven with a dramatic coastline that almost looks like it could have been crafted by one of Italy’s greatest artists.

For water sports fans, this will be your backdrop to long, warm days on the water. Kayaking along the long stretch of coastline will really test your paddle skills! Breezes tend to pick up through the day, making ideal conditions for sailing and windsurfing.

Away from the beachclub, Calabria’s three national parks will keep nature lovers of all ages happy. Home to wild animals and rare plants - the parks are a must see on a family holiday in Italy. Getting out and about is easy with our fleet of mountain bikes. Go it alone and explore or join us on a guided ride.

Enjoying family holidays in Italy

Get your kicks in the arch of the boot with a family holiday in Italy. Our Airone Beachclub may have a relaxed and laid back vibe, but there’s plenty of high octane activities for adrenaline junkies of all ages and abilities to enjoy. Take advantage of the breezes that build up in the afternoon to advance your windsurfing and sailing skills. Taking to the water for the first time? Early morning starts will let you build confidence before you tackle the stronger winds. The local cycling is superb - with eye-watering scenery to whizz through. Still got some energy to burn? The fitness deck has Zumba, circuits, HIIT or Pilates classes to keep you limber and lithe throughout your stay.

Our four tennis courts are the place to fine-tune your game and are just the spot for a family doubles match. With inclusive coaching for all abilities, along with private coaching (available for a little extra), you’ll be mastering your serve in no time. For active kids of all ages, our multi-sports court plays host to a variety of sports, including basketball.

Dining at Airone Beachclub is club board with more than a hint of Italian influence. Yes, there will be pasta - always a hit with the little ones. But there will be plenty of fresh fish and local dishes too. There are weekly barbecues for non-inclusive evenings and a few local restaurants to try the region’s best dishes.

Where to stay on a family holiday to Italy

Join us in Calabria for a family holiday in Italy to remember. Italian summers are lovely and warm, with temperatures regularly reaching the mid to high 30s. When the thermometer starts to soar, you’ll want to be close to the water. Fortunately, at our Airone Beachclub, the beach is a short stroll away through the shady pine trees. Great for children, the long, sandy beach with its shallow waters is a prime spot for sandcastle building and toe-cooling paddles. There’s also a separate kids’ splash pool back at the beachclub for the smallest swimmers in the family.

Spacious and easy to navigate with pushchairs, our beachclub in Calabria is perfect for families with children of all ages. Babies and toddlers can enjoy the Neilson crèche and there are kids’ clubs for everyone aged from 4 months to 17 years. Specially tailored activities will keep little ones on the go all summer long.
