Hi all
This is my second post. My other post had loads of replies, so THANK YOU to everyone who commented. In fact, I received that much help I am now more confused, lol.
So, I went to Travel Agents yesterday and they quoted me the following:
22nd Aug Dep Man 21.00 arr Bjv 03.05 next day
5th Sep Dep Bjv 17.40 arr Man 20.00
4* Hotel Crystal located nr Gumusluk on the Bodrum Peninsula
All Inclusive / 2 Twin 3 rooms
Total cost excluding travel insurance £3152.00
If I may, I would like to ask some questions of you peeps?
1. Has anyone been here? If so, what's it like for kids? We have 2 kids and a teenager. It is VITAL that the kids are happy at night and well catered for.
2. Is this a good/fair/bad price, and would it work out cheaper if I booked it seperately (Flight & Hotel) or does anybody know how I could get this cheaper (Promotions, reductions, vouchers etc).
Some people may ask me how I arrived at the decision to choose this resort. Well, I went to the Travel Agents and told them "My family & I want to go to Turkey in Mid/End August. We are flexible on dates. However, the place MUST, MUST, MUST be good for kids & teenagers, especially at night". Today they emailled me with the details. So, I checked out the Thomas Cook brochure, which states that there is a kids club and lots of activities. Can anybody shed any light on this package and price?
Our budget is probably about £3,000 for 2 Adults, 3 Kids (8, 9 & 14) for 14 nights in Turkey.
Thanks again in advance everybody. Here's hoping I get as much feedback as my first post.
PS, Just to stick this on the end, I do have loads of airmiles. Are these any good for such a holiday???
There are reviews and photos on Trip Advisor.
It was also one of the hotels featured on Save My Holiday on BBC1 earlier this year.
I think there are far better hotels than this one considering the price they have quoted you.
Check the Thomas Cook and Thomson websites for prices then ask the travel agents to match it.
Will have to start another thread now based on another complex/resort etc.
Hope the Mods don't mond ??
Thank You again for your valued advice.
