Hi Lorraine, well it certainly hasnt put me off or worried me. We are not fussy and picky so we should be ok. We all eat most foods so there should be something that we like.Snacks dont sound too good, but we will see.As long as its sunny and kids are happy and well that will do me.still really looking forward to it. As i said, sorry to go on about it so much, but its the wasps and mosquitos that worry me. Mainly because our little daughter is terrified of anything that flies or crawls for that matter. I can imagine her having a hysterical screaming fit every time she sees one.where are you flying from? I think our flight is at 0730, which means we will have to leave about 0430. I have also got one of those things that you plug in for the mozzies. In fact i would say my repellents have cost me nearly as much as the holiday!!!!!!!!. Counting the days, cant wait I am worse than the children.

Hi Dianne,
Totally agree,Just bring on those lazy sunny days,but know what you mean about wasps+mossies,my little girl is the same.The repellents are not cheap,but a reasurance!!!
we fly from gatwick.3 WEEKS 2 DAYS TO GO!!

Sorry about that last message i dont know what i done wrong,put it down to tiredness!

The Avin skin so soft range is brilliant for repelling mozzies. They do a dry oil spray which is great and really cheap.
I am off tomorrow!! Can't wait!!

have a fab time, lyn and gang!!!!!!!

Ooooh I bet your so excited,well Lyn at long last its here!
Have a lovely time.
Lorraine.

Thankyou.
Still sorting stuff out!!
I know I'm a bit late asking but can you drink the water or do you have to get bottled?

it depends mostly bottled,you can find fresh in some places but rare

Hiya Lyn,
To be on the safe side i would stick to bottled,then you cant go wrong.
Happy packing!!
Lorraine

Hi Got back yesterday and here`s a report.

Hotel complex is great and rooms although basic are comfortable.

The all inclusive package includes all your meals as expected but the food does become a little boring after just the one week and the choice rarely changes.

The drinks are free for local beer and wine but if you fancy a Barcadi Breezer or a Bottle of Stella they`re 2.50 Euros each.

The pool is fantastic and the Kids Club is fantastic and Loopy Lea and Super Sam are great with the kids.

I don`t want to say too much more as it will spoil your elimant of surprise. If you want to know more let me know.

Just a word of warning the Wasps are a nightmare and are set to get worse from what I was told. Do not leave Coke/Lemonade about as they swarm round these like mad.

FAO Lorraine and Dianne

Will look out for you on our second week, hope any of the recent ratings havent put a downer on either of u.

ps i will be the mad one in the pool at @#$%& of dawn working off all the calories from the cocktails the day before!,

Have either of u booked a taxi transfer, i have just been on the phone to taxi firm at the airport, didnt realise until looking in brochure that its a long transfer? god i hate coaches.

My email is fiona.gamble@gmail.com should u wish to contact me (tis ok we aint one of them stalking holidayers that turn up at every bar and meal haha)

We fly on 22nd June from Birmingham

Right time to get in the garden and get rid of these pasty legs before i hit the beach

xx

will certainly look out for you second week. dont drink the place dry before we get there will you. we havent booked a taxi transfer. will get us all prepared for the holiday. A two and a half hour coach trip in the midday heat with tired kids will make chrousso look so inviting.I dont think we will bother with taxi transfer, just take plenty of drinks and make sure we get the back seat. I am really looking forward to this holiday so much.Especially as i have chatted to people on here. yes I am also trying to get myself a bit of a tan before we go. Also nil by mouth diet from now to then. I have a size six supermodel lookalike daughter of 15, to sit next to at the pool. Which doesent help my case, but I do try. 20 sleeps to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YIPEEEE

hiya dianne,

Normally i wouldnt bother with a transfer via taxi either, but last 2 years we have had horrible transfers by coach, so im still contemplating the taxi option atm. Like u i always like the little speech they do welcoming u to island or area etc, so i will see, will probably depend on prices, ( i definately aint paying first choices £185.00 for taxi)

Looking at the reviews, think i better go get some extra strength mozzie repellants thou, dont normally bother with them in june, but best be safe than sorry i guess

definately going in garden now talk soon

Thanks John, Would love to know more anything you can tell us. You sound like you enjoyed it.Are the wasps everywhere, are they really that bad. Thats the only thing I am worried about. Did you go into the town? Did you go on the pirate cruise or to the water park? Are there cash point machines? Was the journey from the airport really bad? Tell us anything, it all helps.
