    Just looked at Belle Mare on TA and it has 100% positive reviews and looks FAB! Which part of the UK are you flying from and how long is your flight?

    Flying from Glasgow to Dubai, approx 7 hrs. 3 hr layover then just under 7 to Mauritius. Afternoon flight from Glasgow and arrive at 10.45 am. Perfect :)

    Just got back from Morocco, had four nights in Marrakech and seven nights in Essaouira. Been before three years ago.....sorry to be home. Got a week in Kosice booked for end of April, may try and fit a visit to Greece in June. In October going to Abu Dhabi for 11 nights. Next year it's the whole of January back to Morocco......

    :rotfl: I thought it was a different language to begin with :o
  • I think it's just too popular.
    We paid £5000 for 2 business class flights but I wouldn't do it again.
    Much better places to go IMO

    I have family in SA so I WANT to/HAVE to go. Plus my kids have never experienced a HOT Christmas! The search continues.

    You obviously love Morocco as you keep going back. 36 Days until my birthday celebrations in Morocco, very excited! I'm sorting out pre-flight hotel/parking for Gatwick and need to now start drawing up our itinerary! :T We will be there for 4 nights. Any recommendations?

    55 Days until Miami and cruise. Will need to fire up my spreadsheet to sort out excursions. Still undecided which hotel to stay at for our 5 nights in Miami pre and post cruise?!?!? A friend recommended 1 Hotel South Beach but the customer care reviews on TA are awful and it has put me off, but I know my 21 year old would love the atmosphere. :eek:

    Wander too far into the medina in Marrakesh, and it might take you 4 days to find your way out.

    There's a few ideas in Wikitravel...

    We had a couple of weeks. Topped-and-tailed in Marrakesh, and then by train to Casablanca [sh*t hole], Fes [wow], and the lovely relaxing seaside capital Rabat.

    We are going to Miami and the Florida Keys in April.
    Staying at the Intercontinental in Miami, as I don't do beaches anymore. Hoping for an upgrade, as I am platinum!

    I've stayed there before in 1996 and was so very excited to see Gene Wilder in the lobby but he was an absolute !!!!! and declined my request for an autograph! :rotfl::eek:

    I will check them out.

    Off to the mountains tomorrow for the slidey stuff :j

    Will be an early start (7am flight but at least LCY is only 15 minutes down the road) followed by a looong train journey from Zurich. Absolutely knackered as it is (watched the Daytona 24h at the weekend) and not really looking forward to the stupid o'clock alarm. On the plus side, I should be in St. Moritz by 2pm so can watch the afternoon bobsleigh training(hotel about 25m from the top of the track :p )

    I guess I'd better get packing :rotfl:
