Hi Blackfox

We are going in a large party too, 4 adults, 4 kids aged 7,7,2 & 3.

We are there for 10 nights flying from Manchester the same time I think, although I thought it was 1.30pm (probably wrong) will have to see when tickets arrive. Will pm you nearer the time.

Well you probably won't miss us either especially the way my 2 behave at the airport!!! A few drinks down the hatch should soon ease the stress heehee

In the select rooms are the ones with balconies better than ground floor ones?? I know this subject can have lots of pros & cons but i would be interested to hear some of them !!!

don't know what rooms they are but we noticed that as you went up the rooms from the outside appeared smaller, you could tell this by looking at a block on its end, the higher they went the more set back they were. hope this helps a little.

Select Rooms

Would you prefer that to a balcony Sheeba? Where are they with regard to pool etc ? :thanks

Ours was right by the pool and near to the beach but we had a garden and grass between us so not too close to the pool!! It felt as though we had our own garden which was lovely in that heat. I am sure we would have been equally happy with a balcony though as you get different views, I am not sure if any of the select rooms are upstairs or not though, sorry.

If you go on the photos we put some on last April and there is one from our room to the pool and to the beach, in the Coral Sea album, I think we called them CSR April..have a look, might give you more idea! :lol:

Hi Sheba,

Have just looked at your photos. It certainly is right by the pool and the beach does'nt look very far away either. Were they two select rooms side by side? Did you have your own sun loungers on your terrace? Looks really good !!!

Hi we just had the one room, but it was huge! The girls were 13 and 15 and they had beds in ours, loads of room. If there were just two of you in it it would be like an appartment.

We had table and chairs on our terrace, there are loads of loungers by the pool and on the beach, didn't feel that we needed them by the room to be honest. Just wandered down to the beach.....

Anything you want to know just ask... :lol:

sheba is it correct that we need not bother to bring towels with us ,does the hotel supply both beach and bath towels ,need to know to save some weight allowance

no you dont need your own towels when you get there you given a card for each person take them to the huts round the pool or on the beach and they will give you your towels there and lay them out where ever you want to watch the world go by

..and you can take them with you on trips, just take them back when you return. they also provide all the towels you need for inside..its really nice to have a whole holiday without grubby sandy towels!! :lol:
