We would really like 10 or 11 days for similar price or 14 if really poss for around £1600 ish. We were horrified 2 years ago when we went there ,when we met 2 couples on the complex who had not booked with First Choice directly and had paid a fraction of what we paid. I can also remember last year looking on another site and found all the First Choice Holiday Villages cheaper , can't remember where though. Left it late so need to book soon.
Many Thanks.0 -

hi all,
First time poster here. Here's the best deal I have been able to find so far for Tenerife in March 2010. Not to bothered about the hotel as long as it is a similar level to this one (ideally Barcelo Santiago for a similar price would be nice) and am somewhat flexible on on dates (within a few days or so).
