The OP stated that the £890 was for the hotel only and did not include flights etc. I think they were looking for a price for the package rather than just the accomm. I don't have the WOW Bodrum available but as you say the flights to Bodrum from Newcastle are very expensive.

Can you tell me the name of the hotel that quoted £890? thanks. Flights are too expensive. £500+ Per person. Consider Maldives or Dubai. Better value for price. The agents on this board could take you to Maldives for £995 or Dubai for £1095. Not quoting. Just giving assistance so you can consider alternative destination.

We only want to go to Turkey this year. Quote was obtained from Expedia.co.uk

Consider flying to Antalya. Far cheaper. Experience shows that getting a coach transfer from Antalya to Alanya, which is 2 hours away, might give you a better quality hotel at a cheaper price. Other agents on here might correct me.

If you would like a quote on Antalya/Alanya please let me know.

£600-£660 not likely for 1/2 June. If you raise your budget to £750 for 2nd June and are really lucky you might get something.

Change your dates to 3rd, 5th, or 7th and you might grab something at £700.
