I am a Travel Agent
My company’s ABTA/ATOL numbers are G9172/6053. MSE doesn't check my status as a Travel Agent, so you need to take my word for it. You can check my ATOL with the CAA. This signature is here as I follow MSE's Travel Agent Code of Conduct.
Also, I am on the TUI website and it keeps trying to put us in 2 x rooms, even through the rooms advertise up to 4 occupancy. Everytime i remove a room, it says it does not have the rooms required - bah! We are hoping to all be in room room/suite.
Anyway,

I think the issue is the room will take 2 adults and 2 kids max and your kids are over the child age
There are other hotels with TUI available - 6 when i looked - that will take you all in one oom
As stated before I cant beat TUI on late deals so book direct
