    Hi - Im guessing this is 2 adults for 14 nts - if  you are taking a suitcase each and add Transfers the total with Love Holidays is £4016 in a Standard Junior Suite - see below
    If we do the TUI package you'll actually get a great room upgrade included to a Deluxe Junior Suite - 2 suitcases and Transfers included and a rep if any problems - And I can do that cheaper than direct with TUI for a total cost of £3958
    If you are travelling with just hand luggage then stick with Love Holidays :) 

    Love Holidays
    Price Breakdown
    Bags 2 x 20kg bag £146
    Transfer Shuttle transfer £56.36
    Per person £2,008.18
    Total price £4,016.36

    My Total with better room £3958

    Other 4 star hotels that come up cheaper are - Riu Republica, Punta Cana Princess, Ocean El Faro, Serenade Punta Cana Beach & Spa -  if you want a price on any of those message me

    Can get it slightly cheaper by booking Hotel through Travel Republic and flights direct with Easy jet, but possibility of cashback through Easyjet.

    I have been looking for ages and should have booked in January when it was around £9500, but have been hoping they will come down again.  Expensive lesson learnt!

    If anyone can improve on this I'd be grateful

    Hi - I can beat the Easyjet Holidays direct price but it wont be a huge amount - maybe £100-£150 so it will depend what cashback you can get as to whether its worth it

    One person is flying from Manchester, three from Birmingham. Could you find those different flights but a better price than below. Hotel the same or better.
