Got my invoice for Chateau des Ormes today after booking online as soon as it opened. Have been really lucky and got 3 bed 2 bath + deck for the week:T

Wow, that was quick.:) who are you staying with? Looking forward to getting mine to see which company i get to stay with. CDO looks like a great park- very popular.

We have done this crossing numerous times and never had any problems. We only hear the engine if located on one of the lower decks but have never had any problems sleeping.
Usually board early to eat in the restaurant, then head down to the bar for the magic show!

Sounds great :j, I'm liking the sound of the magic show, is it aimed at adults or kids. Hope they have something like that when we go. Wonder if we could request a cabin on the upper deck, my little girl is a light sleeper and she'll be misserable as sin for days if she can't sleep on the ferry... hummm

Thanks Ceo, we're going just before the main school holidays start so hopefully they will have the disco and magic show..... Roll on the summer, planning all this has got me through the horrible journeys to work this week in the cold and snow.

Staying with Keycamp, not been to CDO before but reveiws seem good. Got invoice for Chateau de Drancourt this morning as we've book 3 nights there on the way down. Eurocamp are providing that accommodation.

Has anybody that booked via the postal system noticed there cheques going out of the bank or had anything through the post yet?

I've chosen May half term and Oct half term on two seperate forms. Reading posts on this site I don't hold out much hope at all. I even sent it last monday when the last token was printed and sent it special delivery so as it would be there quick, I've never done it before so had no code to book online.:(

I have got an e mail saying i didnt get a holiday last week. It gave me a code so i could go on and look for a holiday myself.

hello all, this was my first time applying for a sun holiday. i collected all the tokens and sent off my postal application on the monday token 10 was printed. Havent heard anything or received an email so have literally given up on getting a break.
i have today decided to book a short trip somewhere else, having checked my bank account i can see the money for the sun holiday has just been debited from the account.

does this mean that ive actually got a holiday as i havent received an email?

any ideas??? do u think i should contact them or wait a few days??

thnx for ur help.

Email confirmations are only sent to priority code bookers. (Edit - didn't know they sent out 'unsuccessful' email codes, I have had a similar letter sent.) But as your money has been cashed I think it's fairly safe to say you have been allocated a holiday...not sure if you contacted them whether they'd be able to tell you which but seems possible.
