    Hi we are looking to go to Tenerife for a week over new year but the prices we are being quoted seem very high, I wondered if anyone can help bring the price down a bit. We are looking for:

    7nights All inc at the Bahia Principe Costa Adeje, leaving from either Manchester, East Mids or Doncaster. Traveling are two adults one child (5yrs). On or around the 27/28th Dec.

    We have got a couple of prices the best being £3200.

    This does seem high to us as we have done the same hotel at new year on more than one occasion in the past and never paid more than 2k although I do suspect we did get a child free place.

    It doesn't have to be that hotel but we would like a a similar standard one 4/5* although we do like this hotel so it would be nice.

    Thank you,

    Pete.
