Hi Glynis

Danny and I did wear our wristbands with pride until Danny lost his and I had to give him my last one. He will be wearing his again in August. We didn't see a single person wearing one. We had a great time with Danny and Karen and her family and hope to all meet up again as they were all good company.

I forgot about my wristband until we met Sanji!

We are going to the F.O. on May 3rd., not stayed here before. Taking everything into account, e.g. views, lifts etc., is it any advantage requesting a high or low floor room or doesn't it make any difference.

Regards,

Degs.

Hi there Ive stayed on floors 3, and 23 before and they were both as nice as each other. very big rooms with nice veiw's of swimming pool and Benidorm.

Its still quite a hike up to floor 3! it was 7 flights of steps so dosent really make a difference with regards to lifts.

Have a great time

Gotta add my bit too. One of the best holidays I have have, thanks to the great company of Danny, Jean, Eddie, Carol and Richard. We all got on so well and it was really lovely to meet up and put faces to names. A bit thankyou must also go to Jean for keeping us seats every night in the entertainment area. We got all the requests that we asked the hotel for and everything was as good as last year, A huge improvement on the weather this year helped a lot too. We will return to this hotel as often as possible. It is worth every penny paid and hope again to meet up with the great friends I have made. Greetings from cold wintry Preston. Karen, Richard and Claire.

Left to right is: Karen (mrnkar) Claire (Daisyboo) Jean (northantsj) and Danny (DannyH). Now you all know what we look like.

Claire and Danny are in their normal clothes as they were about to return to Cold wintry England. As you can see Jean and I are in our Benidorm clothes, with the sun blazing behind us.

Thanks, I would really love to meet up with you but November is a no no. Darn work. We are not allowed to take any holidays between September and Christmas. Might be able to arrange something over Christmas, New Year as I would love to meet up with Sanji, as well. Just have to wait to see my hubbys work pattern. Karen

Well we are going back to Benidorm again on 27 December, but not to the FO. If there are enough HT members there at that time then it might be worth arranging a meet, but that would be a separate topic nearer the time.

Going to FO for a few days early May and was wondering which would be the Quietest area for sunbathing here, both round the main pool area, and also the roof top terrace. Also in both of these areas are there plenty of parasols for shade? Thanks.

Best Regards - Taggy

PS...Is there a dash for sunbeds on the roof top terrace as well as the main pool area?
Reply
When we were in the Flamingo Oasis at Easter the rooftop pool didn't open until 11 o'clock and they were queueing at 10.15. It got quite full and some days it was difficult to get a sunbed after midday.

Crikey!!...I can see us heading for the beach as usual!!

Best Regards - Taggy

PS....Do you know what they charge at the FO to keep the room on for a late checkout? We wont be being picked up till about 7.30 at night so will try to keep the room on till 6ish if possible.
Reply
Hi yes they do charge, however there is a very safe room for your cases and you can book for a shower in one of the rooms if you dont want to pay to stay in your room. Hope you enjoy yourself you will love it there.
