Hi

We travel out on thursday and i for one wont be worried about the bombings. Who in the right mind is going to bomb a tiny village in the middle of nowhere.

Looking forward it now just got to think about ironing and packing.

Have a great time when you all go

Luv Clare

Does any on know weather you have to pay for th mini bar in the room and also do you get free bottles of water with all inclusive? what are the shops on th complex like what do they sell? Also what is the beach like from pics looks quite bare? Also do you get any icecreams with A/I .
Can you use sterling in the hotel and to pay for trips,also can you use sterling at the airport?

Sorry loads of questions x

We were at palace early this month. When we arrived there was a bottle of water per eprson in the mini fridge. There are a lot of water dispensers around the complex from which you could refill water bottles.

If you want fresh bottles you do have to buy them from bars or shop.

Restaurants have bottles of water on table at meal times as well.

We used sterling a few times in shop but don't think exchange rate was very good.

Some ice creams available at bar near the beach on palace side, but you have to pay for stuff like magnum's.

Hope this helps. Sure you'll enjoy the complex - we did.

Hi Sweetiepie

Like keitha said there are free ice creams at the beach bar and they are very nice quite a few flavours and they put on as many scoops as you like it is about a 2min walk from snack bar at PP....we never bought an ice cream in 2 weeks as these are very nices (walls ice cream)

I only took £50 lira and used sterling for everything else including swim kids, paying for trip with Mustafa in sarigerme tours (use him not FC....in my opinion anyway) you can use sterling in shops they sell things like snacks bottled drinks inflatables (expensive take your own) sun creams etc also jewellry shop, clothes shoes etc etc.........you can pay sterling or lira for everything both in hotel and sarigerme the market people etc all quote in sterling.

The place looks 100 times better than those photos its fab you will have a great time.

We didnt use the beach as im not keen on beaches went to look at it once a bit messy but they have to leave it as it is a turtle area the sea is too dangerous for kids.
My friends went to beach quite a lot as they liked to swim in sea and said it was nice a quiet down there.....free sunbeds aswell.

Hi All

Just got back this evening from Pegasos Tropical and had an absolutely fabulous time :lol: . I have a 6 year old and 21 month old and they loved it.

If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask and I will reply asap. Probably tomorrow as I am off to bed, it's been a long day!!

There are all the usual watersports on the beach....parasailing banana boats etc etc

Entertainment is run by the e3 team who work very hard there isnt enough kids entertainment of a night in my opinion 45mins crowsfeet island which is dancing etc for kids then the dreaded bingo then a show by the e3 team such as grease etc thats in amphitheatre.
In pool bar its usually a singer most are really good then aaaarrrgggghhhhh Bingo then a quiz then singer again it is fairly good but our kids ages 5 and 6 were a bit bored the nights they didnt go to kids club. Although they did enjoy some of the shows we just hated the amphitheatre but do what we did and carry table and chairs onto the balcony and it is much nicer.

Hi Catherine

Sorry its just not my bag but i know some people like it.....yes i can see why if you won it would just have been better if they only did it in one venue each night instead of both....you cant get away from it :lol:

See you down gala next week!!!!!
Only joking it was only about 15mins so not too bad the thing that i really hated was one of the entertainers who did it was so serious and told us off one night for talking during it which just made us worse!

You can enjoy it all again in september is it you are going back?

Vicky :)

Yeah, the 25th, can't wait :hyper
Some bingoers take their bingo really seriously you know! lol. Its normally that kind of stuff you get off the serious "mecca crew" lol not the entertainers. I know where I'd have told him to go.

Unfortunately it seems that all "family resorts" do Bingo now and as you say its only 15 mins.

Hi the Bonds,

We are off to the Tropical on 16/9, just wanted to ask if you used the creche, we have a daughter who will be 3 in December, just wondering what the facilities were like.
Also, how did you find the sunbed situation at the tropical, did you have to get up early to reserve beds?
Thanks

Glad you had a good time,

Emma
