    Hi there.

    Just wondered if anyone here could do a price beat.

    Jolie Ville Luxor Island Resort
    7 Nights B & B
    LGW on 11 September with Monarch
    Transfers, fuel surcharge and flight meals included
    £592 (less quidco) for 2 through Direct Holidays.

    Would consider any other London airport and travelling up to a week earlier, if that makes a difference.
  • Hi All, I am after some advice about booking a holiday at the end of August.
    1. Looking to Fly from Bristol on either 25th or 26th August for a 1 Week Holiday.
    2. This will be the first time abroad for our 8 year old boy, therefore I'm looking for a destination where the flight is only a couple of hours maximum.
    3. As we have a child we are looking for accomadation that is centrally situated for amenities/ beach etc. Also looking for accomadation that provides evening entertainment for families/kids.
    4. Ideally looking for an 'All Inclusive' deal to save costs (please let me know if you would disagree?)
    5. Budget means that we are looking to pay arround £375-£400 maximum.

    Any advice/suggestions greatly appreciated

    Thanks

    We really want to go away over x-mas as my partner is self employed and has to have this time off work anyway. We really want to go back to the Dominican republic as we loved it there last year, but don't mind considering any of the Caribbean islands (although preferably not Jamaica).

    We have no idea if we would be better off booking now or waiting to see if ther are changes in prices so any advice would also be great :) Thanks

    We can fly from Bristol, Cardiff or birmingham airports(Would consider others for the right deal).

    Thanks for you help
