    Wow, thanks Del, it did seem too good to believe, especially as departure the week before and after are far more (even though one week of this is inside the Easter holidays, whereas the week before isn't :think: ) It is on the First Choice website though, so surely it must be legit???? Don't suppose you have any wisdom to impart on Parque Satiago 1-5 or First Choice do you?


    Thank you

  • Hi all, hopefully someone can assist here, I've managed to use the quote template at the bottom:

    Looking to go away to the Alykanas Village this June, or second choice being Tsilivi, Zante (anywhere good for kids). Dates are between 12 - 25 June and staying for 7 nights. 10 would be great but prices are far too costly!! Saying that, if 14 nights came in favourably then could do that too! Our budget is around the £1500.

    There will be 2 adults and two nippers ( 8 and 6) so ideally would like an apartment. Is this the only accomm that will cater for 4 as we would prefer two bedrooms...(sorry, haven't been away for a lonnng time!)

    I've looked on the Thomson, Portland, and done the review sites and the Alykanas Village seems to come out tops...but at a price. Cheapest was with Portland but started to get confused with room allocation/ no. of studios etc. That was around £1700 for the four of us. Have considered DIY but would this disqualify us from the Rep Ents for the kiddies???

    Travelling a must from Manchester or at a push East Mids.

    B and B preferable and if anyone else has got reviews on where else to take the family, as was looking at Feurteventura then all will be muchly appreciated!

    Thanks in advance and appreciate the time people may spend searching.

    Template info is as follows:
    • The Quote itself:£1700
    • Who the quote is from:Portland
    • Is there a booking fee: No
    • The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Alykanas Village
    • The departure Airport/Post: Manchester
    • The Holiday Dates: 12 June for 7 nights
    • The number of people travelling (inc kids ages):4. 6/8
    • The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival):Alykanas Village
    • The Board (self catering/half board etc):B and B
    • Any specific requirements: Two bedrooms
    • Is an in-flight meal included:?
