    Happy New year! Good start I see.
  • 'The p*** you drivel'. Certainly not fair & the language people do not want to see on this board. Myself & savapenny get on. Why have you & budgetflyer got a problem. It's not YOUR thread or anyones. If the previous post is not removed by 12-30am I'll e-mail the moderators. This a a public board-people can post when they want. If I'm not here, other people can help.

    To any new posters reading this I have helped a lot of people (look at my previous posts) & the 'updated' post contains a lot of info. Frankly to put ' Anyone who listens to the p*** you drivel deserves the holiday they get' is bordering on slander.

  • Hi!

    I'd be inclined to look at https://www.medhotels.com, the prices are fairly keen & the choce is good + we've dealt with them for years now & they are pretty reliable & cheap & financially secure.

    Hope this helps!

  • Hi guys,

    Happy new year! Ok...Sandals. Not a great expert on this (some of the other bods on here may have other ideas/tactics?)-try going DIRECT for the room rates & sourcing flights separately. If you go down this route then myself, budgetflyer, sloppy chops, savapenny, etc can help with flight only prices. If this does not work try the method i gave earlier-quote from high street then go to the tour op web-site. Let me know how it goes!

    Ladyone23, tough one I think! Best bet is https://www.medhotels.com. Let me konw how it goes!

    OK post edited.Opinion stands :-)
  • Thanks! I'm sure people do not want to see swear words on here & venemous personal attacks.

    For those who read this board who are not as experienced as you, sloppy, etc...there is some good moneysaving advice. What do other people think-has it been of use?There have already been sone 'thankyou' posts.

    Also... kindly explain (quote) 'Anyone who listens to the p+++ you drivel deserves the holiday they get'. Not a very rounded argument-do please clarify exactly what you mean. Sometimes I am away from my computer for periods of time, sometimes I do not have the time i want but this board has so many knowledgeable people on here to help that if I'm not here others can help.

    Judging by the time of the original post (about 5-30am) had you had the odd tipple budgetflyer??!

    Anyway-in the spirit of new year I say happy new year to all!

    Trevor ...Have a look at the Matias beach hotel http://www.matiasbeach.com/ it can only be book with Thomsons but you can now book it on hotel only I have saved my mom a fortune doing it this way, she goes about 10-15 times a year its probably not the cheapest hotel on the island but it is good.
    And I have to add medhotels is not one of the cheapest places to book hotels use https://www.hotelscomparison.com or https://www.wintersunshineholidays.co.uk
    and this time of year https://www.riu.com have some very good promotions on and the hotels are brilliant

    Sorry as for MedHotel being reliable check holidaytruths to see the compliants about the company
    If you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel

    "Myself & savapenny get on"
    I wouldnt call asking for a cheaper price on one holiday is us "getting on"...lol
    I completely agree with Sloppy and Budget.
    And when SloppySavings (or SaveaSloppy we aint decided yet) Travel is up and running your history!!
    I have to say why start a new thread and clutter up the board? This could have been added on...OH but then it wouldnt have got noticed so much would it?
    Got a big target to make for January? I know Cheryl as

    PS Happy New Year to you too
