Hmmm ...none of those, really.
We use 'spend' for concrete information about holidays, for example:
I spent my holiday in the countryside.
I spent my holiday with my cousins.
I spent my holiday learning to sail.
If you want to say how good or bad the holiday was, you wouldn't use 'spent'. You'd use another expression, such as 'I enjoyed my holidays' or 'I had a good holiday' or 'My holiday was fun' etc

You could use an adverb, but to sound natural it would have to be followed by something more that explains how you spent your holiday.
I spent my holiday happily floating in the pool.
I spent my holiday quietly recovering from the stress of my job.
I spent my holiday frantically studying for my upcoming exams.
