Hi, my daughter set me a challenge of finding her and myself an all inclusive package to anywhere for 1 week on 1st July 2013 (can be flexible by only 1 day either side). We have a budget of £300 each and have noticed that our price range has flights that are late in the day on the first day and really early on the last meaning that we lose the first and last day of the holiday.
Best quote is above, can anyone help us? We don't mind where we go as long as its warm, has a pool and we can get to shops/beach etc.
Thank you.0
