Am going to Petramare on 21/6/05 for 2 weeks and after reading previous posts have heard that sunbed hire could be 2.5euros a day, can someone please confirm or deny this :?:

Will post when we get back and let you all know how much of a great time we all had. 2 adults and 2 children aged 6 & 8. :D

Hi Graeme we are going for a fortnight a month after yourselves so would be interested to read how you get on.

You can actually e-mail the petra-mare direct so you could as the question about the use of the sun-beds. http://www.petramare.com/en/index.html

Hope you have a lovely holiday :D

Cheers Shell many thanks for that. We will let you know what it is like and also the airport travelling time (I suspect will only be about 1 1/2 - 2 hrs).
Cheers again and we hope you enjoy your hol

We certainly didn't have to pay anything for sunbed hire by the pools when we went last year

Thanks Graeme :D I'm pretty positive that the airport transfer will be 11/2 hours as they now run a seperate coach from the airport direct to the petramare so there's no drop off's along the way :D

Not that far away now I can't wait :fly

Shell :wave

Yes is about 11/2 hour, but we found the views very nice, the coach was comfortable and clean which made it quite bearable as we had 6 children in our party, but even they enjoyed the ride.
They also had a great time there, so did the adults, the food was nice and the children liked the childrens pool and the lazy river, they were happy bobbing around on rubber rings.
We also found the walk into town enjoyable, there are plenty of shops. The rooms were nice ours was quite large and very clean.

Booked to go 19 Aug for 2 weeks with husband and daughter aged 11, have read lots of good information about the hotel and surrounding area, thanks to everyone for this info. Am a bit concerned about the food and entertainment which seems to vary from really bad to ok, it would be great if someone will give more up to date info over the next couple of months about any changes First Choice have made.

Hiya, taking my niece who is 10 and my son is 5 but it will be his 6th birthday whilst we are there. Hoping that I will be able to get him a cake from somewhere. Hopefully the hotel might be able to do something for us!!!

Hi JOJO, it's the same for me, my Daughter is 10 but will be 11 on the 4th August whilst we are out there, I was hoping to have a word with one of the reps to see if they could organise a cake :D I'm sure they'll sort something.
