    Santorini used to be terrible but its been extended from when I first started going 10 years ago. You still wait forever for baggage though! Think it's just Greece on a whole they take their time lol

    I loved Warsaw, enjoyed every second of my time there and would love to go back. Strange how people differ so much really.

    Best- West Cork, Ireland, esp Gouganne Barra (stunning scenery)
    Lake Bled-so peaceful calm and romantic.
    Tenerife-away from the touristy areas.

    Worst-Nowhere really, but having stayed at Butlins Minehead, would avoid any holidays with that sort of theme .
  • Best - Port Stephens New South Wales - about 1.5 - 2 hrs from Sydney, have been twice, an absolutely beautiful place, would love to go again!

    Worst - It's a tie between Butlins at Bognor Regis and a holiday park in Dawlish Warren (not the Wellcome Park) can't remember the name, it was so bad I must have tried to put it out of my mind completely!
  • Best - New Zealand: Spent 6 weeks on the outskirts of Auckland, and did virtually everything. We were staying in a housing estate called Mairangi Bay, but it was breathtaking - not dissimilar to 'Home & Away'. Hired a knackered old datsun, and spent 7th and 8th week driving down to Wellington...possibly the most breathtaking city i've ever been;

    Worst - Las Americas, Tenerife - A stinking pit, which was full of drunk chavs and con-men!
    Profit=sanity
    Turnover=vanity
    Greed=inhumanity:dance:

    Best- Clearwater beach, FL (first and last time I have felt truly free and without any worries- but the delicious stone crabs helped too)


    Worst- Not been anywhere really bad but I suppose Lands End. Rained and there wasn't much to do.

    I agree with you about Clearwater Beach, we went there and loved it, it was a hard choice between there and Port Stephens for our best holiday destination. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Resort, it was the most relaxing place, we went there after International Drive and had the best week.

    I agree, we stayed at the Arion Bay on Kamari Beach, it really made the holiday. Not too expensive either.
