    Hi saveapenny
    just wondering if there are any which you would recommend for the holidays for Cuba and Mexico? Going to get the husband to make a decision tomorrow on it tomorrow.
    Would also like to thank you and sloppychops for the info on accessible travel - they went that little bit further and got me the hotel i wanted for my parents.

    If it was me going it would be the Club Hotel Riu Jalisco but understand its out of your dates (1st Sep) or I would go to Brisas Guardalavaca not only is the best price but it get good reviews and for £610pp its a bargain and that end of Cuba is less likely to be troubled with hurricans (not impossible to be hit that time of year but less likely) The atlantic side (Cancun) is more likely to have tropical storms or hurricans than the Pacific side

    These are only my opinions you would have to make up your own mind based on what you really want but those 2 would be my favourites.
    Did you parents go to the Son Matias? or are they still thinking of going? because there is a very good deal on at the minute for the 24th April for 7 nights
    If you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel
  • not sure if its too early to look but looking at going skiing in january 07.

    The date doesnt matter that much just after the 7th jan 07
    Location: Ski resorts of italy such as Cervinia, Courmayeur, La Thuile, Livigno. The other possibility is USA/Canada, ive been to New England and Quebec but pretty open to anywhere.
    Accom: Prefer ski-in ski-out but any good deals at 3*-5*, could have a apartment aswell near slope
    Board: Doesnt matter the cheaper the better because food is cheap enough.
    Budget £1000 per person

    How many people will be in your party?
    How long do you want to go for?
    Which airport do you want to fly from?
