Where should we go?

[UTH]

In a very rare turn of events, me and my best mate have been "given permission" to abandon our wives and children for a weekend. We have Friday lunch time-ish to Sunday to do pretty much whatever we like.

A quick trip to Ibiza is always one of the options, but we're wondering what alternatives are out there? I remember seeing people on various TV shows talking about amazing beaches etc in places you'd never heard of/thought about that cost a lot less but are just as much fun.

We don't really have too many requirements, generally relaxing with drinks flowing, a pool/beach, maybe a bit of clubbing (although not really a deal breaker). Realistically would need to be 2.5 hours flight time to make it worth while.

Suggestions welcome

San Sebastian.

Budva Montenegro, or Tallin Estonia. Both well worth a visit and ideally for a slightly-alternative weekend away.

Bucharest, the Romanian capital is very lively for nightlife and underrated for a city break. We had an absolute blast and being cheap helps.

There is also a huge tropical water park with a beach etc.

As above - San Sebastian

Or Logrono or Bilbao. Logrono might be a bit challenging to get to though. Bilbao will be very easy.

Or Budapest - no beach, but a fantastic city with far better food than Prague / Vienna / anywhere else in that neck of the woods.
