    In Grenada we stayed at the Rex for £1,150 each AI for a fortnight. The Rex was a 3 1/2*. We used BA for our only stay there.

    I can only post what I know to be true.

    The OP requires 2 weeks (possibly AI) over Christmas and New Year, I will say again that should the OP wish to stay at that hotel for 2 weeks AI over this coming Christmas and New Year then they will be looking at much nearer £2k+ each!

    Of course Cuba and the Dominican Republic produce even better bargains AFAIK and it comes down to the same thing again - same sun, same sand, same sea. Even the drink is the same; Bank's Beer and Mount Gay rum.

    Oh and I have been to Cuba three times and have never been offered Bank's Beer or Mount Gay rum.

    I can only post what I know to be true :D

    What about something like this LINK abit over budget but all inclusive so not much spends needed. I havent checked the reviews though, so you would need to look on Trip advisor first
    £100 - £10,000

    I'm obviously not up to your standards and as I don't want any more sniping to occur on the OP's genuine request for information I shall leave the thread.

    ...and I followed the link and got a lovely looking hotel in Taba! Worth further investigation I should think!
