We want a fortnight at this hotel in July 2009 (saw it last time we were at this resort). I can get flights for 4 aberdeen - reus on sky scanner for £568.84 but the hotels own website comes up with £3096.06 for 4 of us in one room b&b. I've looked at lots of hotel and holiday websites and it always seems to be around the same price individualy or as a package. Can anyone advise or find it cheaper?

    What dates are you looking at?
    Is it for 2 adults and 2 kids? If so what are kids ages.

    You say you have found flights on Skyscanner for you all at £568, what dates were these for as i cant find anything near that price (unless Skyscanner is playing up).

    On most sites it looks like the hotel is only available with rooms for 2ad and 1 child, there are lot's of other hotels available for 4 that seem to be much cheaper. Have a look at Thomson, they have apartments comming up for those dates for £442. (seems like a bargain, and leaves plenty spending money, I've no idea what the apartments are like though)

    I would be vary about booking those indirect flights, what would happen it one of the flights was cancelled/delayed would you we able to change/amend the conecting flight (they also look like 2 different airlines). I know it's a long drive (3.5 hours) but would you consider Prestwick, as they have direct flights 02/07 - 16/07 - £338
    or 04/07 - 18/04 - £438.
