We usually go for that two weeks, and will be doing again next year (and hopefully 2014 with a wedding on the beach!). It was hotter this year than previously at that time, over 30 every day, pushing 37/38 towards the end of the fortnight, then they had that really hot spell the following week so it was a little out of the norm. For me it's the best time, everything new and fresh, and not too hot you can't sit in it, so it's a good tanning time! Only downside is the pollen level as all the flowers are out - they look very pretty though. You don't really need aircon as it does get cooler on an evening. I had to buy a wrap for the first few evenings as it was breezy as it often is, but a little cool, but by week 2 the evenings were warmer. The pools are always refreshingly cool in May too as they've not warmed up yet!
