    Hi there... erm... where are you going?
    I assume its Florida but it would be great if folks could post their destination not just the hotel name.

    That is an amazing price - if its correct!

    Looking at whats available and the prices, I am fairly certain they have quoted you on Room Only at thei hotel rather than All Inclusive. The room only prices are coming up at pretty much exactly your quote, yet the All Inclusive are nearly £2000pp.

    Double check with them and if they insist it's right snap their hand off and get it booked!

    Thanks for that, I have just double checked my email from the travel agents and yes they were quoting for All Inclusive. Virgin wanted 3.5k for the two of us over £700 more !
