    Wow so many responses....thanks everyone we had a fabulous time.

    Nicola00007 - I think i did a good review lol i got over excited and got carried away haha the honeymoon cost us £1990 was originally about £2300 but we got some money knocked off so we thought it was an excellent price. Spending money - depends on what you want to do activity wise whilst your there and if your taking your children with you (if you have any that is?!) Like i said in my review on trip advisor we went quad biking for 4 hours and it was 130 euros per quad, but you def get your monies worth out of it. Its exspensive in the hotel shops aswel so its up to you how much you take. We took 200 euros with us as we got paid whilst we were there. all in all we spent around 400 euros

    CherryJ - I hope you have a fabulous time. We could not fault it in any way. You will have to let me know what you think when you get back. Read my review on trip advisor as without sounding big headed i have given some great tips which maybe of help to you. Mine is with the title "“SUPURB!!! We went for our honeymoon - gutted to be home - Plenty of tips in our review for you all”"
