Friend of mine was there last 2 summers and really enjoyed. From i heard, the food is very generous and good.

Thanks. Looks like I'll be there this year IY"H.

Any ideas for a family vacation somewhere in Europe - with either very nice kosher hotel or kosher restaurants around - that won't be crazy expensive in the summer? willing to spend as want to go somewhere very nice but not too crazy
Rome. May not be as budget conscious as you're looking for.
Get an AirBNB near the ghetto. There's lots of choices of great food. 
The activities can be done with taped walking tours instead of the Jewish guide services.
A great experience for everyone.

It's the Azores again! I will be going in a few weeks! I will be documenting my trip in a WhatsApp group as well as writing a trip report for a large Jewish weekly. If you would like to join the WhatsApp group, please WhatsApp me at 248-508-0871.

for cheaper, go upstate and find a last minute open bungalow (check ads in upstate papers/circulars) or a vrbo/airbnb etc.
for more expensive, we loved the perfect Vancouver weather in august and they still have some good kosher food though maple grill is gone :(

There are some around that in the Poconos. The various fees will certainly bring it much higher.

-1. IME, most in the Poconos just have community pool. Even those that have a private pool, it's mostly very small above-ground pools. Those that actually have real, private, full size pools are way more than $200/night before fees.

Might be in London for a day in late December with a friend, where else to go in Europe for 2 days?
