Our package was quite expensive as it covered the xmas and new year period - not sure would travel at this time again but rather early January. Our package had guarenteed interconnecting rooms and breakfasts and was about $6k for 12 nights. Our boys are 10/8/4.
Your situation is difficult given the age gap of the kids as the 14yo may want his own privacy. You could try a kids suite which has a partitioned room with double bunks and playstation for you and the 2 littles - could fit older boy on additional bed or in separate room. Another option is a family suite - these are located at front of hotel well away from pool - these have a partitioned room for 2 and room for another bed - good size but not well located. We just had very stringent rules that the second room door remained bolted and it was not opened for any reason - its hard but maybe 14yo needs to take some responsibility if he wants family holiday.
