we went in april this year for 1 month with 4 month old and 2 year old... best holiday ever! Easiest age to travel with baby at that age. 2 year old was the biggest hand full :)
I was breast feeding but took some formula for some evenings when i decided to have a few cocktails .... As we were there so long ran out of oz formula and had to buy from local supermarket which was no problem with our bub. Nappies can be bought over there as well but not anywhere near the quality of the huggies from home, but no where near the price either.
Mosquito net as recommended by someone else is a must! As repellant is not recommended on babies recommend taking some citronella to dab around the pram to deter.
Also don't forget sunscreen, sunprotection clothing etc.
We got a nanny over there who was absolutely fantastic and especially at night when you put bub to bed inside the room and you can eat and drink at outside restaurant and know bub is safe. Let me know if you would like her details.
And don't forget the baby panadol from home just in case! Also my doc recommended gastrolyte just incase! :)
Have a great trip and highly recommend holiday inn at Tuban great for families! we are back in november and can't wait!! x
