Marmaris Quote

Please could anyone find their cheapest quote for me based on the following details, im assuming this is what i do now after just reading the sticky?:confused: I don't know. Either way, i've received a lot of help from this board in the past and that's why i'm here again! :)

Dates - 25th/26th/27th May
Duration - 1 week
Travelling - 2 adults
From - Manchester, Leeds/Bradford, Doncaster/Sheffield
Destination - Marmaris, Turkey
Board - Any, SC is usually cheapest so that will do
Hotel - 3 star or above and would be nice if it's close to the beach/centre/etc
Budget - I'm hoping for under £300 per person if that's possible but i know that being specific about the hotel being 3 star, etc would probably push the price up

Night flight is fine, don't need in-flight meals, and transfers included would be good.

Now the catch is, i want it as a package please, i don't want to make seperate bookings. Again i know this won't find me the cheapest deal but that's fine.

If this is far from possible then i'm willing to compromise on the destination. Choices are; Torremolinos in Costa Del Sol, Benidorm and Salou << that one would be nice actually :D

Thankyou in advance

    Thankyou all for your help, you're great!

    I'm afraid them 3 dates are specific and 1 week is a must due to work.

    All of them deals look great but if only i could.

    saveapenny, i don't like the idea of 'allocation on arrival' i'm sorry, i know this sounds picky but i'd hate to go into a hotel that i couldn't check out on here 1st.

    I got a similar feeling with Turkey flights/dates therefore i'm moving towards the Spain side of things. Going to keep looking but thankyou for your help, much appreciated :)

    One thing to remember about Teletext,the prices you see will not be final prices as there are taxes,supplements to also add on.
