Hi, wondering if anyone can beat my quote OR send me in another direction that might be able to do our honeymoon cheaper.

---

Quote is from Virgin Holidays for £4,257.59

14 nights total

Flying from London Heathrow on Sat 5th Nov to Mexico
6 nights at Hotel Occidental Grand Xcaret (All Inclusive)
(Note: I prefer the look of Dreams Riviera Resort & Spa but the V rep was unable to include this in our quote as there may be a 7 night minimum on that particular hotel)

Then flying from Mexico to New Orleans on Fri 11th Nov
4 nights at Hotel Monteleone

Then flying from New Orleans to New York on Tuesday 15th Nov
4 nights at Skyline Hotel

Then flying back to London Heathrow

---

Further notes:
The above is precisely what Virgin have quoted and also includes all airport transfers.

We are flexible on dates and not overly concerned with particular hotels as long as they are similar of quality and location. However the New Orleans leg must be Saturday - Tuesday as my OH is a big New Orleans Saints NFL fan and we're hoping to be able to catch a game while there (although fixtures aren't released until around April 2016 so we may well be leaving this to chance!).

Also flights can be to/from any London or South coast airport.

We would also prefer to be able to do a gift lift service so that we pay the deposit and then our wedding guests can (if they choose to) contribute to paying off the balance of the honeymoon.

Hi Gally

I can match this price like for like but I can also get you an extra day, upgrade you to a Sea View Suite, and do a much lower deposit than OnTheBeach are asking for exactly the same price so Im gonna say YES - I can beat that Quote
