I need to book our hotel for our friends wedding, tomorrow. She has booked Grecian Park departing Belfast 19th Sept 2007 for 2 weeks.

As many of you know Im having a hard time deciding which hotel for us. Im drawn towards Constantinos The great. £1472 B&B with Libra. Good or bad?

I did price Sunrise and Capo but they are coming out at £1800 approx, unless someone can help with that?

So a few Q's -

Sunloungers, easily got at any time or is it the normal morning dash?

Breakfast, can you go in shorts (sill Q I know) or does that have to be trousers too (for men)

Is it on Fig Tree beach? if not which hotels are?

Does anyone know if the fridge and safe are expensive?

Any other comments appreciated. I really really appreciate any help on this as I am going a tad insane

Also does anyone know if there is parking at the hotel for a hire car? How much roughly is it for a small car for a fortnight?

thanks again

Jamie,
I think the price you have got for the Constantinos is good because istn' it AI,the hotel is right on the beach as for getting sunbeds I don't know how easy it would be,the Capo Bay and Sunrise both do allocated beds which is fantasic,to be honest I wouldn't like to go to a hotel who didn't offer this.I know it might not seem to important to some but the thought of having to get up early to bag a bed makes my blood boil.........
If Costantinos is the same star as the Capo Bay you can go down to Breakfast in shorts but not for dinner.

Thanks Keels71 for the reply.

Its that price for B&B. Im getting quote for £1800 approc for Sunrise and Capo as they only have SSV or SV rooms left. TBH I would prefer these but its the extra money. We want to hire a car and also go to Egypt. So lots to fund :oops:

I'm just waiting on a travel agent callign me back with some quotes.

Thanks again

Oh I thought the Constantinoas was AI now,after reading many reveiws on her about the hotel its does seem really nice,but my choice would definatley be the Capo Bay but hey I'm just biased! feel in love with the place in 95 and have been going back every year since 97.

Keels71, you are making me jealous now. :oops:

Fingers crossed maybe this travel agent can get me a cheaper price for Capo then

It is my no1 choice but I need to win the lottery

Jamie, which tour operator are they looking at for you? we have used First Choice and Argo and I know Olympic go to the Capo,or maybe try and book direct with the hotel,should be a bit quieter as its not in the school holidays.Honestly if you can get the Capo I would just go for it.Every year we think right lets try somewhere different,we get all the brochures,put all suggestions together but we will always go back to the Capo Bay because we compare everything to the Capo.All my friends laugh at us going back to the same place every but as I am sure I have said before you pay so much money for a holiday why not go back to where you know will be fantastic!!!!!.... :hyper

I have priced it on the net with First Choice, Libra and Olympic.

Check booking direct and its working out at £1842 including flights. typical!

Just my luck!

Ach well, will wait until the travel agent calls back, she is checking different brouchures/tour operators for me. It one of the co-op travelcare branches.

Thanks again

For car hire I always use Petsas. Excellent! Email for a quote, ignore their website prices.

Hi
We used Terra Travel (Based in Craigavon Shopping Centre) for our recent holiday to ayia napa. When pricing it last year we found them to be significantly cheaper than most other travel agents.

We have just returned from ayia napa (unfortunately!) but we were very impressed by the service we received. We paid our initial deposit and then just paid the balance off over a period of time by our debit card over the phone which was so convenient for us as we lived quite a distance away. Out tickets arrived one month before our departure date which was nice and i would not hesitate to use them again.

Hi Demy!

Yes I have called Terra Travel earlier, still waiting on them calling me back.

We have used them before and they are very reasonable.

Thanks for that

Personally, if I could stay at any I would go for Capo Bay. Overlooks Fig Tree Bay and the grounds are fantastic. The various ponds with Koi Carp are something else! Didn't stay there but had a good look round. It's on my 'to do' list.
