Could anyone tell me what the laundry facilities are please. Stayed at Kiroseiz last September and they washed and pressed a large bag for around £10. Thanks

Maybe you wont feel so bad about the stupid mistake FC made with your tickets, when you learn about the incompetence of FC and our tickets!! Ours arrived today, and even though I clearly have an obviously female name (natacha), my ticket lists me as a "Mr" and not a "Mrs"!!! Hubby phoned FC and they "apologise profusely" and will re-issue a new ticket for me with the correct name on it.. oh and our flight times have changed too... If i didnt, so desperately, want to go to the HV, i would never use FC again..completely clueless! Apologies for my rant and the fact i'm :offtop

You nearly packed yet??
:cheers :) :cheers

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me how much more it is to upgrade from a standard room to a swim up room? I went here in May and have rebooked to go back next May.

Hi running caz

My friend came back 2 weeks ago (they loved it too :) ). She spoke to someone who had upgraded to a swimup room (done through the hotel) and paid £112 per week. Hope this helps.

Wish we were going back in May :( .

My sister has booked to go in July next year but there is no way we can afford it. We paid £1500 this year for the 3 of us for 2 weeks. To go with them it would be £3500 (Bethan will be 13 so classed as an adult) :cry .

Very jealous of anyone about to go or booked to go.

Themcs: Thanks for that. It seems a lot cheaper to re book over there,as we have got 2 adults and 2 kids for £1900.We have got standard rooms booked but just thought how nice it must be just to walk out of your room and get a sun lounger straight away.
I presume if you wait till you get to hotel you can only upgrade to a swim up if they have any free?

Thats a good price. We probably would have rebooked while there but we had just booked for Steve and I to go away in March for his 40th so couldn't afford 2. It will be the first time we have left Beth for more than a weekend! She is not bothered in the slightest but the closer it gets the more I am :( . She's just looking forward to being spoilt rotten by nan and grandad. She did ask my sister if she could go with them and be their tour guide but didn't have much luck.

Hi everyone

33 sleeps to go, no sign of tickets but not worried YET.
Cases down from the loft, swimmers dusted off and trial pack done and am off to buy another case as well over weight in 2 cases and as the little one gets allowance too then am using it.
Is it only me or do the kids have more clothes and stuff than the adults?

Anyone else travelling around about 29 September?

Runing caz if you want to book a swim up room I would book it now via FC or ring the hotel and price it direct with them.
I presume if you wait till you get to hotel you can only upgrade to a swim up if they have any free

They cannot offer you something they havent got can they :think .
Not usre either if they can accommodate 4 people in swim up rooms again check with the hotel via email and clarify.

Good luck
11 sleeps to go cant wait ;)

Hi all, just a mention about the swim up rooms, I'm sure they are very nice but after speaking to a couple who had older children with them and who were in a swim up room ----- There is no shade, you have no sun umbrella to hide under , also to get your drinks etc, you would have to get up and walk and get drinks and take them back. The couple we spoke to said they just couldnt be bothered and apart from meal times, just made do with drinks they had bought and put in their fridge. Just a thought for those with young children who will need shade.

hi nixon 4444,
yes really, really getting excited lol, 96 fahrenheit is 35 celcius here is how you convert
To convert Fahrenheit temperatures into Celsius:

* Begin by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit number.
* Divide the answer by 9.
* Then multiply that answer by 5.

Here's an example: Change 95 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius: 95 minus 32 is 63. Then, 63 divided by 9 is 7. Finally, 7 times 5 is 35 degrees Celsius.
To convert Celsius temperatures into Fahrenheit:

* Begin by multiplying the Celsius temperature by 9.
* Divide the answer by 5.
* Now add 32.

Nixon 11 sleeps for us, we were out there last Sept and it was 35 + degrees with a wonderful sea breeze.
With regards to visa you dont need one if your not leaving the resort.

See you there
