Where is the best place to travel in Europe with a baby?

My sister-in-law is looking for a place to vacation in Europe this spring that would be OK with her 5 month old. My brother will be serving in Afghanistan and she wants to meet up with him on his leave.

I suggest Greece. It is very safe, the paeople are friendly, gracious and warm. It is fun, great beaches, food, wine, history. Not expensive either. Great islands as well close and easily accessible.
Germany or Holland, it’s clean and almost everybody speaks English
Depends upon what month. Spain and Italy are both good in April/May. Your brother will likely enjoy a stroll at the beach after having been to Afghanistan.
I can recommend the Costa Brava around Barcelona. Look into a package holiday with flights leaving from the UK. The water will still be a bit cool, but the weather should be nice enough for a baby to play in the sand.
Other nice places in spring with a baby are Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt (Red Sea Coast), but I don’t know whether your brother will want to go on holiday in a muslim country. (Might change his perspective, though.)
