Beat My Quote! Travel Agents Thread

I've been quoted £924 per person (all in) for two weeks all inclusive at the Melia Cayo Coco in cuba departing on 10th Sept and returning 24/25th Sept from London Gatwick.
Can anyone beat this or offer a better deal at a similar standard of hotel?
Not a travel agent but search holidays for myself, friends and family. On holidayhypermarket.com there are 4* from £785 from London AI for the dates you quote.
Went to Cayo Coco about 5 years ago and its really picturesque but compared to the rest of the caribbean (we've been to Dominican Republic, Mexico, Jamaicia and Barbados as well) the standards are lower and the food pretty basic. That said we had a great holiday and I would go back.GC Jan £318/£350, Feb £221.84/£300, Mar £200.00/£250 Apr £201.05/£200 May £199.61/£200 June £17.25/£200

Hamco - it would help if you said where you were flying from and how many people are travelling.

Sorry, I thought this was a 'beat my quote' thread, not a 'find me a holiday as I can't be bothered to do it myself' thread0

Mushy,
I think you should read the first post on this thread for info of how to use it. Basically you need a quote FIRST for someone to beat.
Happy holiday hunting!
