Is the cheapest place to book this still online with first choice?
Last time i went in 06 eclipse were cheaper but they dont seem to have a seperate site now.

Also has anyone ever had any joy getting a reply to an email from the hotel? Ive tried 2x now at the joy hotels address, i want to see if there is anyway of gteeing the palace side as i really want that half.

Anyone just back ????

Eclipse was part of First Choice but offered the holidays cheaper, now it is all one brand so you are likely to pay more. Infact I had quotes for silly prices to the Holiday Village when I last looked, we paid £179 for the equivalent of next week in 2007 with Eclipse and they wanted £600+ each when i last checked with First Choice.

Trouble is 2007 prices have gone up alot since the merger of a few travel companies.We looked at prices of a few places we went before for this year and instead of paying say £2200 they were asking over 3 grand

took the plunge and booked for begining of Aug, hope we have as good a time as we did in 2006!!!!!!

FC are requesting me the palace side so fingers crossed.........has anyone req a particular side before and been sucessful?
Reply
Never requested a side before always been given palace side (been 3 times now) although on our last visit the palace side was very 'noisy' in the hotel itself with lots of kids running about but I do like the pools on the palace side better. I still think this forum is way too quiet for this time of year considering how big it is, just cant help thinking something amiss this year!!! Anyone had anything from FC? Apparently people not been sent tickets, my final payment is due in a couple of days never heard anything from FC since I booked it in July 08 usually get reminder, nothing!!!

I was also expecting some news from this hotel by now, me and my family have been there 3 years in a row and are going again on the 1st june, cant wait just would feel better knowing someone had already been and everything was just as great as the last 3 years.

There are a few new reviews on trip advisor all good and my dad is staying there at the minute and hes on the tropical side(orange) so both sides must be open now although he texted and said its quiet but it is very early season and itll be quiet everywhere. Weather brilliant. We go on monday can,t wait!!

Hello!

My first post!

Going the holiday village on June 18th and very excited. Went to the spanish HV last year and loved it - anyone else done both? How do they compare?

Looking forward to hearing the reports back from holidaymakers this year - some of last years were a bit worrying!
