    If you can get that all inclusive deal to Majorca for £214pp on the dates you want i would get it booked asap as i doubt you would find it that cheap again.

    DONT GO TO BELLEVUE!

    I went there in Sepember last year and it is VERY VERY poor - read trip advisor before you book - Wish I did :o

    I always find travelrepublic quite a decent site. Cheap and has some decent places.

    Not luxury but for students and groups of lads I use them

    Was it really bad alot of the reviews are good...but you get mixed reviews everywhere so were not to sure. Also was it far out from clubs etc?

    I'd be very wary of booking cheap All Inclusive.

    I've heard and read lots of reports of the food being so inedible that people have had no choice but to eat outside the hotel and that so-called cheap holiday has turned into an expensive one.

    You really need to read reviews carefully.
    Some people book, say a 2 * hotel and don't pay a lot but expect 5* luxury and service and then rate the hotel on their expectations.

    Don't just look at how many stars the review has, READ about the accommodation, food and location.

    However, you may (or may not) be one of those students who consider that a pot noodle is haut cuisine and would be happy with whatever food is on offer. :rolleyes:

    Although asand when says that the Bellevue is 'VERY VERY POOR' but he doesn't explain any further.

    Good luck with finding your holiday.
