Extended Vacation Ideas, Please

fishwife · 05-11-2009, 00:55

One of my crew is in hospital having had some pretty serious surgery two days ago. She's likely to be in for another two weeks and then need an extended period of convalescence, three month or more. The boat is her home but it's not exactly an ideal place when your feeling fragile and possibly need further medical intervention. We could get a flat in London but it's a dreary place to spend the winter.

We are all EU citizens and we're looking for somewhere that has

No problems with obtaining a visa for at least 3 months and probably 6 months.
Good medical care, cost is not an issue.
A warm but not hot climate.
Relatively flat in the resort area, she's not going to be up to climbing any hills for a while.

Suggestions based on personal experience would be very welcome.

Thank you

Paige
