I agree with most of the answers. If you want guaranteed sun, the Dubai or Abu Dhabi are great places to go. Yes I know they are seven hours away, but there is little difference between 4 and 7 hours. I am sure if you look at the time of the flights and how much time you will have 'on resort' they would probably be the same.
PS Taking my family there in Oct and been there 9 years running! I just love the UAE.

Feurtoventura in the Canary islands is good. It is always nice and warm. If you stay in the North of the island at the Riu Oliva Beach Hotel, you are next to a lovely beach. This hotel is 3Km from Coraleco which is a good shopping town. It is also only about half an hour from the airport.

Specifically -Puerto del Carmen - Lanzarote.
It's the only one of the Canary Islands that we have been to - but it was fantastic.
Nice beach (not black sand but I think that it may have been imported). Loads of restaurants with all the varieties of cuisine that you could wish for.
Mind you, I have to admit that we did have a tropical storm while we were there - still when we went to the Sunshine Coast in Australia we had over half a metre of rain in one month, it's probably us - so just make sure that you don't go when we do!

The Maldives are the one and only beach holiday.
On a small island [they have 1100 islands]
with just a few people. No TV or news.
No shoes, just sand and sun with fantastic water and beautiful marine life outside you door.

Malta, of course 2-3 hours from the UK, and the water is warm until mid-November. Rain is sporadic and the food is delicious

Much more that 4 hours away but try the Seychelle Islands!
