I want a relaxing holiday (next May) where I can just lay on the beach or by a pool and read loads of chick-lit.

I would plump for lanzarote - it will be hot but there is usually a nice cooling breeze and the sea will be a bit warmer than the Algarve at that time of year.

I like the Algarve, but it can still be quite cold in May. You will rpobably be okay lying on the beach, but too cold to actually swim. Portuguese food is great too. Eat where the locals eat (go inland in necessary). It's much cheaper and twice as nice.

Formentera is the place for you, if you can find a package.
