    US-based brother-in-law getting married in Mexico in July - inconsiderate dolt - and thus have been getting quotes. He's at the Adventuras Cove, however this is a bit expensive so we're looking for something more affordable within sensible/affordable taxi distance.

    Best quote so far:

    The Quote itself: £3,709
    Who the quote is from: Thomas Cook
    Is there a booking fee: 2.25 % with cc, none with debit card
    The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Thomas Cook
    The departure Airport/Post: Manchester
    The Holiday Dates: 13th - 27th July
    The number of people travelling (inc kids ages): 2 adults, 2 children aged 8 and 6 at time of travel.
    The Hotel (or * if it’s allocate on arrival): Grand Bahia Principe, Riviera Maya
    The Board (self catering/half board etc): All Inclusive
    Any specific requirements: Can be flexible with dates as long as in the area for the wedding on the 23rd (and no early departure on 24th!). Relatively flexible about hotel however needs to be within sensible striking range of Puerto Adventuras for the wedding; not interested in Sirenis Riviera due to duff reviews.
    Is an in-flight meal included: Yes
    Aircraft Seating: Includes for sitting together
    Health Warning: I am happy to occasionally comment on building matters on the forum. However it is simply not possible to give comprehensive professional technical advice on an internet forum. Any comments made are therefore only of a general nature to point you in what is hopefully the right direction.
