Not sure you will get anything that doesn't have some bad reviews for that kind of money TBH.0

I can easily do a week away for £200 during that period but there is no hope of getting an all inclusive for that money, plus the kinmd of place you might get at close to that kind of budget you probably wouldnt want to stay at!
If you can only afford £200 each to include food and drinks you may be better off going for a shorter period such as 5 days to somewhere a bit better.Cover me in honey and fling me to the hermaphrodites!0 -
Is there anyway you can make it £300? I was looking to holiday to Italy at the weekend and some were popping up on Expedia for just under £300.0

I went to Kos last October - it cost £169 per person & was a fantastic holiday. Its best to look on Teletext holidays or Holiday Hypermarket as they had similar deals when we booked. Not sure if it was so cheap because it was last minute however. Oh and it wasnt all inclusive - you wont get all inclusive for £200 each anywhere.0

Close to that price is leaving tomorrow to Tunisia £245pp 5* AI for a week. Quiet place, decent reviews from Tripadvisor.
You might not get £200pp but for under £500 all told if you go last minute, off peak. If you can delay to end Nov/Dec you often get even better deals then. Worth looking at First Choice as they only do AI from this summer and so all their last minute deals will be AI.
Do hope you get something - when money is tight a break is even more important to keep you both going.0 -
hi all,i have found a few around £239 and some under but im unsure on the companys or the areas.one which is sunmaster.co.uk had some extremely low prices but after googling the company and checking on trip advisor i found some really awful reviews.I understand by paying such a low price i am not going to be staying at palace lol but i dont want to be ripped off by a dodgy company or end up being moved to a total hell hole.i just want a nice relaxing holiday where i can eat and drink and sun bathe to my hearts content..dont want loud nightlife places.Majorca seems to be the cheapest.I have looked on a few places and there are a few really cheap deals in the next couple of months but i would really like later in the year anytime from august,but as that month is pretty expensive i thought september would probably be cheaper.The cheapest places i found so far are: Bellevue Belsana(porto colom,majorca),club hotel tonga(Ca'n Picafort, Majorca)
Africamar Apartments(Ca'n Picafort, Majorca) has anyone any knowledge of these places?
thanks for all your advice0 -
okay i have found what i want now...its bellevue belsana. total cost of 2 people,flights,hotel all inclusive is £429.73
BUT....oh yes theres a but lol..i would like to pay it off bit by bit i know theres a few places that do it this way could anyone recomend any?0 -
thats a brilliant price who is it with?0

You should be able to fly to Spain for around £50-£60 each, you can also fly to Canary Islands if you want warm weather (around 20-25 degrees). I'm going to Fuerteventura next week, an apartment is £25 a day, (we don't mind cooking ourselves and go out a couple of days to nice restaurants), but they offer all inclusive if you prefer.
Much much less than your budget and a lovely holiday!!!0
