  • Can you clarify if that price is per person or total. Have a look on expedia for those dates as the price (if per person is way too high for a hotel like that that isnt even on the strip). Also, for vegas it generally does work out cheaper to book flights and hotels separately. If you can confirm your budget ill take another look for you.

    Thats total price not per person Thanks
  • Palm Beach Club, Playa D'en Bossa
    Manchester 4th to 11th June 6.45 out, 19.05 return
    Half board
    2 adults, 2 kids (4 and 2)
    Thomson quote £1262
  • I would be really grateful if this could be found any cheaper. In the Thomson brochure they have this as a Platinum hotel and throw in lots of extras, eg seats together, free drink on the plane, priority check in and first or second coach drop off. Portland although cheaper don't do this although they are part of the Thomson group. Would it be possible to get this thrown in??
