hiya 51 weeks till we go to csr, and cant wait, im sure it must be covered here somewhere, but is it worth taking any towels with you as i heard that beach towels are included with use of a card, just thinking it may be something less to pack. there will be 3 adults and 2 children in hte party.
Reply
towels are provided free of charge both on the beach and by the pool. you use a towel card for them but do not lose the card or you will be charged, think it is about 15 pounds per card lost.

hiya i am trying to find out what the rooms are like at csr, does anyone have any pics (tell me how to look at them please) or is there a web site for the hotel so i can look. thanks

can anyone tell me what the a/i drinks are like (specifically red & white wine & beer-sakara?)and what time it goes on to? also on your last day does the a/i end at midday even if you have a late departure?
thanks

there are pictures of the rooms on the previous page which i posted the other day.
the all inclusive stopped at midnight while i was there. we had to vacate room by midday but you can pay the hotel to keep it longer if your flight is later. cheaper to do it over there with the hotel direct than with first choice. see the reception the day before you depart. white wine was like vinegar in my opinion. did not try red. vodka was fine though, had an odd beer and it was o.k. but i probably wouldn't know a good beer from a bad really!

We stayed at Coral Sea last August and drinks were fine i stuck to the cocktails hubby didnt like the wine but he said beer was not that bad.

No need to take towels you get them fresh every day in room and around the pool.

Also your A/I wrist bands stay on your wrist untill you leave they do not ask for it. :cheers

Have a brilliant time :sun2

Unfortunately Eclipse are not going to be around much longer. We received a letter from First Choice explaining that FC and Thomson are merging. Though Eclipse will continue taking bookings until December this year and our CSR holiday in July won't be affected by these changes.
Shame as we usually get a good deal through Eclipse :(

something else will take its place it always does ,i usually get my quote from eclipse then take it to the first choice shop and get them to do a price match ,but the market place is getting tighter and there will be less good deals around in the future due to less choice

Hi going to csr next April. Can anyone tell me what nationalities besides english go there? Is it just english as it is exclusive to 1stchoice?
Reply
Depending on what time of year you go there may be a few Russians, which there are more of in Winter months. There will be mainly British at this hotel so I wouldn't worry too much. We stayed there last June and I didn't notice any foreigners. There will be less Russians than alot of the hotels in Sharm

The entertainment is British based and the food is too.
