thanks, I was thinking of -
Nisi Beach in Cyprus
Gumbet in Turkey
Hisaronu in Turkey
Tsilivi in Zante
has anyone to any of those resorts?

Cant help with Turkey as im one of those who cant stand the place..

so, Nissi Beach is a suburb of Agia Napa, up to a couple of years ago it was sold as Agia Napa, some nice hotels and beaches most of the night life takes place in Napa, [getting popular with the Eastern Europeans]

Tsilivi on Zakynthos is a smallish resort compared to what your use to, some smashing tavernas and a few late night bars reasonable beach [if it were my choice from your list this would be mine ..but then i am probably the oldest swinger in town and a Grekophile ]

what about
Sharm El Sheikh
Puerto Rico - Gran Canaria

Have been to Hisaronu in Turkey, it's not an overly large resort no waterparks that I know of, but it has a buzzing nightlife. You'd need to get the dolmus down to Olu Deniz for the beach but it's not far at all. Lots of trips available within the resort.

Have been to Puerto Rico too. Again it's got good nightlife, plenty of bars & restaurants. It has a waterpark, here are some images:- http://www.puertoricograncanaria.com/gallery/puerto-rico-waterpark/

thanks,

I have now narrowed it down between
Albufeira
Back to Marmaris or Tenerife
Puerto Rico
Gumbet
Sharm El Sheikh

I'm not sure there are many places that you can dance till 2 or 3 am in Sharm

It depends on if you want to do this every night or once or twice in the holiday.I think they have Pasha and one other nightclub.

The Strip part of Naama Bay has loads of places to go and get a drink and endless bars with the cushions on the floor and the pipes, where you can also get a drink.

Naama Bay is a place for the nighttime in Sharm, but wherever you stay you can just cab in and out of Naama or get your hotels shuttle bus if they have one and get a cab back to keep costs down.

You can definitely dance and party the night away in Gumbet. I think it would be perfect for you,loads of bars and restaurants,buzzing beach front and only 10 minutes from Bodrum if you want a change of scene..
