thanks saveapenny,

Just found this myself... also to close to get visa in time... Think we're going for riu tequila in mexico (carribean coast)...

We've never had a bad Riu.... yet!

Thanks again

Simon

The Riu Tequila is set back from the beach if that makes a difference to you.
My sister went a couple of years back and said the rooms were a bit shabby but ok for the amount of time spent in them and the only other problem she had was booking the restraunts. You have to be at receptions EARLY each morning if you want to eat anywhere other than the buffet.
She said the Palace (riu) next door was the best one and if she went back she would book that but your looking at about 1200 (min) each

Some notes from the "bookers" out there:

If you are looking for a straightforward 'price-beat' for a package holiday, we need to know the Tour Operator (ie Thomson, Thomas Cook, etc) & if all extras such as flight meals, transfers, credit card charges, booking fees, airport security are included. DO REMEMBER IN MOST CASES WE CAN 'TAILOR-MAKE' an equivalent deal (or possibly SAME Accommodation) in a similar area often at a cheaper price too!

If any MSE 'posters' require quotes/help from me can you please include the following information to allow us to find you the best 'moneysaving' deal!

PLEASE ASK FOR PRICES FROM THE REGULAR 'BODS' ON HERE ONLY IF YOU ARE IN A POSITION TO BOOK STRAIGHT AWAY OR WITHIN A DAY-THOSE OF US THAT SEARCH FOR DEALS KNOW THAT IF YOU ASK US FOR A PRICE IT WILL HAVE CHANGED 3/4 DAYS LATER-so help us to help you avoid dissapointment & ask for help WHEN YOU KNOW YOU CAN BOOK quickly-otherwise any quotes you want to take my come as a dissapointment if you go to book them 3/4 days later & they're more expensive!

PLEASE DO NOT POST FOR A QUOTE ULNESS YOU ARE IN A POSITION TO BOOK BY, THE LATEST, THE FOLLOWING DAY AS ANY QUOTES/SEARCHES GIVEN WILL BE OUT OF DATE WITHIN 48 HOURS.
1-All airports you can fly from
2-Duration
3-1st & last dates to leave the UK
4-Are night flights acceptable ? (Big point as night flights usually cheaper!)
5-Party size & kids ages
6-Board basis you require (ie self-catering, all-inclusive, h/b, bb...etc)
7-Type of resort, ie quiet, lively
8-Any resorts/countries you WOULD NOT go to
9-Any other neccesary factors, ie must have kids
10-Prices required by what day/time?
club, pool, be within 'x' metres from sea...etc
11-Max. budget FOR THE WHOLE PARTY!!! Now I know there is a preconceived idea that if you say maximum £1000 we'll quote £999-99-NOT the case! It just saves us all time, for example if you were looking at peak Season or Whitsun for £125 pp it's a non-starter. Just 'as cheap as posssible' is not a help I'm afraid.

My area of expertise is the main Med resorts, Canaries, Turkey, Egypt, Florida deals including accom (we get good villa rates), Dominican republic, Cuba + mexico. Other posters on here have much better knowledge on other destinations-so if I don't answer in person it just means its either not my area or one of the other 'bods' on here is better qualified.

Do remember as fellow moneysavers no extras to pay-such as card charges, booking fees, Airport security, transfers (in 90% of cases we include a PRIVATE TAXI-nice start to the holiday!). If flight meals are not available we'll let you know!

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR 'LATE BOOKINGS' FROM 24/7-28/8. PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR HELP ULNESS YOU ARE WILLING TO BOOK STRAIGHT AWAY/OR AT LEAST WITHIN THE HOUR. HOLIDAYS WILL GO/CHANGE PRICE/FLIGHTS WILL GO UP/SELL! THERE HAVE BEEN MANY CASES RECENTLY FOR BOTH MYSELF & OTHER 'HELPERS' WHERE PEOPLE HAVE PHONED BACK/'HUMMED & HA'D' THE NEXT DAY & THE HOLIDAY IS GONE. TO FIND SOMEONE THE BEST PRICE TAKES A GOOD 30/40 MINS TO LOOK AT ALL OPTIONS-HEARTBREAKING FOR THE MSE'R CALLING TO CONFIRM & A WASTE OF MY/OTHER HELPERS TIME DURING THIS BUSY PERIOD. PLEASE BE SERIOUS THAT YOU WANT TO BOOK & GIVE ALL INFORMATION NEEDED.

Can ANYONE help me with an early booking for May 2007 details below:
24 or 25th may
All London airports-direct flights only
10/11 nights
any beach resort
All inclusive hotel
3 adults either 1 room sharing or 2 rooms
Max £700 each=£2100 total

Really appreciate any help-in a position to book straight away as need to confirm asap as it falls on the 'horror' half term!(Down side of being a Nanny-have to take holidays when Monkeys off!)
