Thomson is committed to providing great holidays now and in the future. So we’re working<br />

hard to protect the environment and support local communities in the places you love to visit.<br />

You can help us by supporting our World Care Fund. Donate a pound each, or 50p for a child,<br />

and we’ll match it. Together we can do our bit for the planet.<br />

Every penny you give goes straight to the projects we support, like the Jungle Jams project<br />

in Mexico, where 50 Mayan women from the Chumpon community will make a living selling<br />

home-made jam to tourists.<br />

All you need to do is say ‘yes’ to your World Care Fund donation when you book your holiday<br />

– we’ll take care of the rest.<br />

Whatever sort of holiday you’re looking for, we’ll help you fi nd it.


To us, your fl ight is just as<br />

important as the rest of<br />

your holiday<br />

So if you’re travelling with Thomson Airways,<br />

we’ll help get your holiday off to a fl ying start.<br />

Here’s what’s in store…<br />

In it for the long haul?<br />

Fly long haul with us and you’ll get more legroom in economy<br />

than you would with BA, Virgin Atlantic, bmi and Monarch † ,<br />

seatback TVs you control and a tasty three-course meal.<br />

Plus, on all our long haul fl ights we give you the chance<br />

to upgrade, too. That means even more space, bigger TVs,<br />

and drinks included throughout*.<br />

Great Service<br />

Professional and smart, our crew provide service with<br />

a smile - exactly what you’d expect from the UK’s<br />

biggest holiday airline.<br />

Pre-allocated Seats<br />

A boarding-time scrum at the airport is no way to<br />

start your holiday. That’s why we give everyone a seat<br />

number when they check in. And on most Thomson<br />

Airways fl ights, you can even choose your own seat<br />

number up front. Plus you can get yourself some extra<br />

space if you like.<br />

In-fl ight Meals<br />

Pre-order one of our tasty hot meals – it’s cuisine to<br />

fl y for. Or if you just fancy a light bite, you can buy a<br />

snack and a drink onboard.<br />

Entertainment<br />

Comedy, music and drama are all on the bill on our<br />

TV and radio channels. And if your fl ight is over four<br />

hours, you can look forward to a Hollywood<br />

blockbuster, too.<br />

Shopping<br />

Our onboard range features fragrances, cosmetics and<br />

gifts at prices that knock the high street into touch.<br />

Direct From Your Doorstep<br />

No-one likes a trek to the airport – so good news is,<br />

we fl y from 21 UK hubs.<br />

Check-in Early<br />

Jetting off at the crack of dawn? <strong>The</strong>n make life<br />

easier by checking in your bags the day before. It’s free<br />

at Gatwick and Manchester, and you can just turn up.<br />

At Birmingham there’s a small charge and you need to<br />

book ahead. See our A-Z Guide for details.<br />

<strong>Travel</strong> Light With Little Ones<br />

Babies don’t travel light - fact. That’s why we’re giving<br />

under-twos a free 10kg baggage allowance – on top of<br />

a pushchair or a car seat.<br />

Effi cient Flying<br />

We’re improving our environmental credentials all<br />

the time. For instance, we’re reducing our carbon<br />

emissions by bringing in all sorts of fuel-effi ciency<br />

measures for our planes. We’ve also introduced coffee<br />

certifi ed by the Rainforest Alliance on our fl ights.<br />

Welcome to<br />

Thomson <strong>Platinum</strong><br />

Prime locations, manicured grounds and service that’s second to none –<br />

they’re the hallmarks of a <strong>Platinum</strong> property.<br />

Each one is rated either 4 or 5 star and<br />

they’ve all been hailed ‘good’ or ‘excellent’ by<br />

at least 90 per cent of our customers. You’ll<br />

fi nd them in all four corners of the globe –<br />

places like Jamaica, Kenya and the Greek<br />

Islands. And our <strong>Platinum</strong> properties go all<br />

out to impress on the style front, too.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y come with pool scenes that range<br />

from large lagoon stretches to glossy infi nity<br />

pools that melt into the horizon. In fact,<br />

with this range the only thing that isn’t at<br />

the top end of the scale is the price tag.<br />

Magical. Unforgettable. Perfect. That’s how you see<br />

your wedding day, right? Of course, planning such a<br />

precious event isn’t easy. And even if it all goes without<br />

a hitch, there’s one thing you defi nitely can’t control -<br />

the weather. So consider this. Here at Thomson we can<br />

whisk you off to sun-blushed shores where you can tie<br />

the knot in style…<br />

Dream Destinations<br />

We’re talking tropical settings like Jamaica and Mexico. Not<br />

to mention European Romeos like Cyprus and Malta.<br />

Perfect Planning<br />

We can take away the headache of planning your special<br />

day. Just leave all the hard work to us. Our wedding<br />

co-ordinators will make sure your big day is fl awless from<br />

start to fi nish.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Big Day Package<br />

All our wedding packages include the ceremony, marriage<br />

Cyprus £535<br />

Dominican Republic £575<br />

Jamaica £645<br />

Mexico £979<br />

Rhodes £599<br />

Wedding Experts<br />

When it comes to swapping vows on foreign soil, it’s fair<br />

to say we’re the fairy godmother of weddings abroad.<br />

We were one of the fi rst companies to offer these romantic,<br />

sun-soaked ceremonies. And with more than 15 years’<br />

experience, you can trust us to make sure everything<br />

runs smoothly.<br />

Honeymoons Made in Heaven<br />

It’s the most important holiday of your life, which is why<br />

we pull out all the stops. On the hotel front we’ve got<br />

everything from intimate and traditional to downright sleek<br />

and sexy. And keep an eye out for those special touches for<br />

honeymoon couples, which lots of our properties offer.<br />

Saying ‘I Do’ All Over Again<br />

Once upon a time you promised to have and to hold.<br />

And however many anniversaries you’ve managed to<br />

squeeze in since then, it’s always a good time to pledge<br />

your commitment again. And what better way to do it than<br />

with a Thomson Renewal of Vows ceremony?<br />

<strong>The</strong> Icing on the Cake<br />

We’ve got a whole host of extras to choose from, too.<br />

Live it up like a VIP at the airport with our Executive<br />

Check-in Service. Crack open a bottle of bubbly as you jet<br />

off. And make sure your party sits together on the plane<br />

with our reserved seating option.<br />

For Pampering...<br />

A hotel spa is hallowed ground. It’s the ultimate<br />

escape. Somewhere to kick-back with a guarantee<br />

you won’t be disturbed. <strong>The</strong>y come in all shapes and<br />

sizes, from Zen-like hideaways with tinkling water<br />

features to state-of-the-art cocoons where modern<br />

science mingles with herbal therapies. Some even<br />

offer special touches like open-air jungle treatment<br />

rooms or hot stone massages. And each and every<br />

one serves up serenity in spades.<br />

Most of our <strong>Platinum</strong> hotels come with a spa to sigh-for,<br />

Sensatori world-class spa<br />

Sensatori luxurious suite<br />

Welcome to<br />

A new generation of stylish<br />

hotels exclusively from Thomson<br />

<strong>The</strong> Sensatori Experience<br />

With over 40 years’ travel experience, we know what separates a good hotel from a great one. And it’s<br />

this insider knowledge we turned to when designing Sensatori. We combined the best bits from our<br />

huge range of properties to create a range of luxury hotels that offer the full spectrum of experiences.<br />

That could mean an early-morning yoga session. Tennis after lunch. And an aroma stone massage late<br />

afternoon. Or it could just mean lazy days by the pool, interspersed with al fresco meals. <strong>The</strong> beauty of<br />

Sensatori is you can have your holiday exactly how you want it. It’s all there waiting – all you have to do<br />

is pick and mix the bits you like best.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Sensatori Hotels<br />

Your options don’t start and fi nish with the activity menus, though. <strong>The</strong> hotels themselves offer plenty of<br />

choice. Take Sensatori Crete for instance. Stylish rooms come in all shapes and sizes, from family rooms<br />

to swim-up suites. At meal times, there’s a choice of six restaurants, each offering a different culinary<br />

experience. Evenings, meanwhile, bring an entertainment programme spanning Cirque de Soleil-style<br />

shows and adult-only comedy nights - not to mention plenty for younger guests. Because that’s another<br />

thing about Sensatori Crete – it’s not exclusively for adults. State-of-the-art children’s facilities run by<br />

childcare experts have made it a hit with families, too.<br />

Sensatori Crete was the fi rst hotel in the collection. It was followed by Sensatori Mexico where the<br />

emphasis is on cutting-edge chic. Contemporary suites come as standard, featuring whirlpools, fl atscreen<br />

TVs and DVD players. <strong>The</strong>re’s a world class spa and a smart collection of bars and restaurants serving<br />

gourmet bites around the clock. Younger guests, meanwhile, get a children’s club, high-end tech toys like<br />

Nintendo Wiis and Playstations, and a dedicated teen hangout. Now we’re making another addition to the<br />

collection, Sensatori Tenerife, a high-design hotel with more than one claim to fame. As well as playing<br />

host to a Michelin-starred chef, it’s home to the biggest pool in Europe. Style-wise, it’s all about Fendi<br />

furniture, Bellagio-esque fountains and mood-lighting. <strong>The</strong> spa is state of the art, the food ranges from<br />

paella by the pool to experimental Iberian creations, and, when it comes to kids, this place goes all out<br />

to impress.<br />

Premier Collection<br />

Sensatori is part of Thomson’s Premier Collection, which means you’re entitled to exclusive extras like<br />

increased luggage allowance and seats together on the plane.

Plaza Atlantica<br />

<strong>The</strong> Play <strong>House</strong><br />

<strong>The</strong> Location<br />

You’ll fi nd the hotel in Guia de Isora on Tenerife’s southwest coast. This tranquil banana plantation area happens to be one<br />

of the sunniest spots on the island, making it a year-round cert. What’s more, the hotel is pulled right up by the sea so<br />

expect plenty in the way of ocean views. Plus, you can see across to the island of La Gomera, and Mount Teide forms the<br />

backdrop. <strong>The</strong> resort of Los Gigantes is about a 10-minute drive away, while fi ve minutes on foot is Alcala – a traditional<br />

Canarian village that’s home to a handful of shops, bars and restaurants.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Hotel and Rooms<br />

Designed by world-renowned architect Álvaro Sans, this is<br />

one stylish hotel. With its grand Moorish fl ourishes and arched<br />

cloisters, it’s reminiscent of the Alhambra Palace. And inside,<br />

it looks like it’s been lifted from the pages of a lifestyle magazine.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are silver leaf ceilings, furniture by Fendi and modern<br />

art light fi ttings, to name a few of the high-fashion features.<br />

<strong>The</strong> boutique touch comes from scattered daybeds and<br />

neon-lit fountains. And in the garden you’ll fi nd a decked<br />

fi re-pit with cosy pod seating, it’s perfect sunset viewing<br />

territory. Plus the hotel has been divided into sections,<br />

with pools tailor-made for families, relaxation and activities.<br />

<strong>The</strong> bedrooms, meanwhile, are dressed in sophisticated<br />

neutrals and come with 32” fl at-screen TVs, spa jet-showers<br />

and super-king beds. What’s more they all come with a balcony<br />

or terrace as standard. And, as they’re all Junior Suites that sleep<br />

up to three adults or two adults and two children, there’s a living<br />

area with a sofa bed, too.<br />

If you’d like to make the most of the setting, book a room with<br />

an ocean view, or one with a private garden – complete with a<br />

daybed. To really take things up a notch, book a Master Suite.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se elegant spaces comprise a seriously chic living room and<br />

a separate bedroom with an en suite whirlpool bath.<br />

For the ultimate indulgence, book a room in the ‘Red Level’ zone.<br />

This boutique, adults-only wing has an exclusive lounge and pool<br />

all of its own. Think of it as a hotel within the hotel. All the Junior<br />

Suites here come with ocean views, and offer up extras like a<br />

pillow and aromatherapy menu and a personal butler.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Pools<br />

<strong>The</strong> main pool has grabbed a front-row seat to the sea.<br />

As such the Balinese day-beds, plump-cushioned loungers and<br />

hammocks that freckle the terrace come with views of Tenerife’s<br />

little sister island, La Gomera. <strong>The</strong> pool itself is something of a<br />

record breaker. Measuring up at 260-metres long it’s the biggest<br />

in Europe. Accessorised with 70 in-water sunbeds, whirlpools<br />

and jets, it merges into a glossy infi nity pool. <strong>The</strong>re are three<br />

other heated pools dotted around the grounds, all of which have<br />

their own atmosphere. <strong>The</strong>re’s a quiet area, and an active zone,<br />

not to mention a fun pool for kids, complete with pirate ship,<br />

water jets and slides.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Dining<br />

As well as six bars, a wine cellar and a snack bar, there are six<br />

restaurants to choose from in the evenings. Four of these are<br />

included as part of your Full Board Plus package…<br />

First up is the main dining venue, Pangea, a market-style<br />

buffet where food from around the world is served in a<br />

white-linen-and-fi ne-china setting. <strong>The</strong> breakfasts here come<br />

highly-recommended and are best eaten out on the terrace.<br />

On the à la carte front, there’s the Oasis Pool Grill where<br />

chocolate-coloured booths are the stage for Med favourites<br />

like paella. <strong>The</strong>n there’s the Club Ocean Restaurant that serves<br />

Spanish, French and Italian fare against a backdrop of white<br />

banquettes, glass-topped tables and giant fl ower lights. Last<br />

but not least, there’s a brand new Asian-inspired restaurant.<br />

For something extra special, there are two restaurants that go<br />

all out to impress and are worth paying a little bit extra for.<br />

Nami combines the cutting edge with a taste of old-world Japan.<br />

Stepping through the stone tunnel you’ll fi nd a sushi bar,<br />

teppanyaki tables and an army of terracotta warriors. It’s Calima<br />

that really steals the show though. This is where Michelin-starred<br />

chef Dani García whips up dry-ice cocktails and Iberian-with-atwist<br />

meals. In both restaurants, guests get 10 per cent off the<br />

fi nal bill. <strong>The</strong>re’s a smart/casual dress code in each – which<br />

means no swimwear or cut-off shorts.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Entertainment<br />

When it comes to entertainment, we know one size doesn’t fi t<br />

all. Some people want to take in a show come sundown. Others<br />

just want a quiet corner where they can enjoy a glass of wine.<br />

With that in mind, we’ve selected the very best showmen and<br />

singers, and tucked them away around the resort. You’ll fi nd live<br />

music at the fi re-pit, West End-style acts, and a mood-lit water<br />

show in Plaza Atlantica.


<strong>The</strong> Experience<br />

• Relaxation Minimalist. Zen. Futuristic. Yhi Spa is a<br />

state-of-the-art cocoon where Space Age meets New Age.<br />

Ancient herbal wisdom is combined with modern science in a<br />

setting that’s all recessed lighting, stainless steel and iridescent<br />

mosaics. Featuring all the usual suspects – like an indoor pool,<br />

sauna and steam room – as well as out-of-the-ordinary touches<br />

like a meditation garden and a relax area where Yhi Flavours’<br />

juices and teas are served, it’s the ultimate multi-sensory<br />

experience. <strong>The</strong> treatment cabins, meanwhile, have Oriental décor<br />

and come in indoor and outdoor varieties. And with a menu of<br />

treatments that ranges from traditional Indian pressure point<br />

facials to aroma and gemstone therapy massages, this place really<br />

raises the bar on relaxation.<br />

* All Spa treatments and facilities are payable locally<br />

• Sports & Adventure You won’t be short of things to do<br />

while you’re here. Inside the Yhi Spa, you’ll fi nd a health club<br />

with all the trimmings – a fully-equipped gym, personal trainer,<br />

spinning and dance classes. <strong>The</strong>re are two tennis courts and a<br />

couple of ping pong tables. Plus, if you phone the ‘Red Glove’<br />

concierge line, they can book you a round on any one of the<br />

island’s fi ve golf courses.<br />

• Play <strong>The</strong> same high standards have been applied to the<br />

children’s facilities. <strong>The</strong>re’s the Play <strong>House</strong> where children aged<br />

4 to 12 can enjoy the Kids’ Kitchen, the Silly Science Lab and the<br />

Arts and Crafts Zone. <strong>The</strong>re are supervised parties and movies in<br />

the evenings, plus sleepovers for a charge, too. <strong>The</strong> Play <strong>House</strong> is<br />

free and open six days a week for an hour or two at a time.<br />

Even after our staff have gone home for the day, you can still use<br />

the Play <strong>House</strong> with ‘stay and play’ sessions. And come July and<br />

August, we split our Play <strong>House</strong> into two groups – ages 4 to 8,<br />

and ages 9 to 15 - so that your children can hangout with kids<br />

around the same age during the school holidays.<br />

For tiny tots, there’s a multi-sensory nursery open seven days<br />

a week. Kitted out with toys and equipment specially selected<br />

for little ones between new-born and 4-years-old, it’s run by<br />

UK-accredited childcare staff – and parents can even borrow<br />

a mobile phone to keep in touch for complete peace of mind.<br />

Nursery sessions cost extra and need to be pre-booked as<br />

there’s a strict child-to-staff ratio.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Location<br />

Sensatori Crete is just over a quiet road from Lyttos beach, which comes accessorised with thatched parasols and comfy<br />

sunbeds. Away from the shoreline, the hotel borders the village of Analipsi. It has a handful of café bars and beach shops,<br />

but scratch the surface and you’ll fi nd a more authentic picture of Greece with bougainvillea-clad houses and tavernas.<br />

When you fancy something more lively, Hersonissos is about a ten-minute drive away.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Hotel and Rooms<br />

Design-wise, the chandeliered lobby is a grand marble space of<br />

classic Greek design. <strong>The</strong>re’s a similar feel to the bedrooms. Gilt<br />

mirrors and oversized vases add a touch of Hellenic grace, while<br />

design-led feature walls, sleek wooden or ceramic fl oors and<br />

fl atscreen TVs give a nod to 21st-century style. <strong>The</strong> beds are<br />

exceptional, too. Big and incredibly comfortable, they deliver a<br />

good night’s sleep.<br />

In terms of the types of room available, there are spacious twin<br />

and double bedrooms, with most doubles sleeping three. <strong>The</strong>re<br />

are also larger family rooms sleeping four, with a double bed,<br />

sofa beds and sliding partition doors. Plus there are a variety of<br />

suites that can sleep between two and fi ve people. <strong>The</strong>se feature<br />

a separate bedroom with a luxurious double bed, and a living<br />

area with extra beds in the form of sofa or folding beds.<br />

Most types of room are available as swim-up or private pool<br />

rooms, so you can be footsteps away from the water. Sea views<br />

are available with most room types, too. Whichever you choose,<br />

they’re all fully air-conditioned and have jet showers, jet baths<br />

and hairdryers. <strong>The</strong>y also have fridges, which you can pay for to<br />

be stocked as a minibar.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Pools<br />

Arranged in a tier-like formation, pools come in all shapes and<br />

sizes. We listened to recommendations from previous guests and<br />

divided them into categories. So, at the top there’s a special<br />

family zone featuring a children’s splash pool, another pool ideal<br />

for activities and a brightly coloured sprayground with tipping<br />

buckets and water jets. It’s near the Tropical Treehouse, which<br />

features climbing walls and monkey bars, so everything’s really<br />

close at hand for the little ones. Meanwhile, the lower levels have<br />

a more relaxed vibe, with two pools exclusively for adults and<br />

also a giant outdoor hot tub. Whichever one you go for, they’re<br />

all framed by terraces with cream linen parasols and plenty of<br />

cushion-plumped sunloungers.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Dining<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are six restaurants, four of which you can eat in for free.<br />

<strong>The</strong> main restaurant comes with buffet stations, show cooking<br />

and children’s buffets. <strong>The</strong> Red Saffron, meanwhile, is a<br />

contemporary Greek taverna, where everything from fi sh to<br />

steak is prepared outdoors on a stone barbecue when the<br />

weather’s nice. Elsewhere, the Tex-Mex serves tacos, fajitas, ribs<br />

and burgers out by the pool. Another option is the Five Flavours<br />

Thai, which serves Oriental dishes like Thai green curry. Plus<br />

there are two restaurants that cost a little extra but are well<br />

worth splashing out on. Right by the beach, the thatch-roofed<br />

Aroma Stone Grill has a Caribbean-esque feel. Food is served on<br />

a sizzling stone slab, with rib-eye steaks and salmon fi llets<br />

among the temptations. Over in Al Dente, Sensatori Crete’s à la<br />

carte restaurant, the focus is on haute cuisine. All but the main<br />

restaurant require reservations. In the evenings, gentlemen are<br />

asked to wear long trousers in all restaurants.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Entertainment<br />

Entertainment at Sensatori Crete is the best you’ll fi nd at any<br />

Thomson hotel. Testament to this are last year’s customer scores<br />

– Sensatori swept the board, achieving the best results for<br />

entertainment across our entire programme. <strong>The</strong>re are two main<br />

venues, the Boardwalk and the Show Lounge, staging everything<br />

from exclusive shows to classical musicians. To give you a fl avour<br />

of what’s on offer, there’s Stars of the West End, with performers<br />

from London’s theatreland jetting out to perform intimate,<br />

unplugged-style concerts. <strong>The</strong>re are top tributes featuring<br />

everyone from an Amy Winehouse wannabe to a Sinatra<br />

sound-alike. Plus there’s a great adults-only comedy night. If it’s<br />

just a quiet drink you fancy, there are plenty of mellow spots<br />

where you can relax with a cocktail. Little ones get cutting-edge<br />

children’s entertainment in the form of ‘Play <strong>House</strong> Live’. It<br />

features specially designed live shows featuring world-saving<br />

superheroes and ‘Bull’, a fun, Sesame Street-style puppet<br />

musical starring farmyard animals. Magic shows and pop<br />

concerts complete the line-up.


<strong>The</strong> Experience<br />

• Relaxation <strong>The</strong> star turn on this front has to be the spa.<br />

Picture a contemporary canvas of dark wood and cream marble<br />

complete with chunky candles and tinkling water features. Factor<br />

in soothing music and mellow lighting and it’s a designer space<br />

exuding calm. Size-wise, it’s vast – there are 24 cabins, plus two<br />

saunas, a steam room, an indoor pool and a beauty salon.<br />

Last but not least, it’s open to everyone. While you’re being<br />

pampered, your younger ones can be part of the experience<br />

with their own mini treatment.<br />

* All treatments and facilities are payable locally.<br />

• Sports & Adventure You’ll fi nd familiar favourites like<br />

tennis and volleyball. <strong>The</strong>re’s football, too, and in July and August<br />

you can pre-book expert tuition from Reebok for a small charge.<br />

Elsewhere, you can try archery, join a scuba-diving trial session or<br />

hit the gym. On the wellness front, there’s yoga, pilates or t’ai chi.<br />

During July and August there’s a special programme for 8 to<br />

15-year-olds featuring sea scooters, raft racing and Diablo circus<br />

training.<br />

• Play At the Play <strong>House</strong>, daytime activities are anything but<br />

average thanks to the Kids’ Kitchen, the Silly Science Lab and the<br />

Arts and Crafts Zone. Evenings, meanwhile, bring parties, movies<br />

and sleepovers so you’re free to enjoy a meal or one of the<br />

late-night shows. Designed for 3 to 12s, the Play <strong>House</strong> is open<br />

six days a week with free supervised sessions running for an hour<br />

or two. Plus you can enjoy the facilities as a family thanks to our<br />

special ‘stay and play’ sessions. <strong>The</strong> Play <strong>House</strong> aside, we’re<br />

teaming up with top UK theatre school, Razzamatazz. Budding<br />

starlets aged 5 to 16 can sign up for singing, dancing and acting<br />

lessons during July and August. Sessions, which run over three<br />

days, cost extra and need to be pre-booked. Babies, meanwhile,<br />

get their own nursery a multi-sensory space with fl ashing lights<br />

and tactile panels, not to mention a huge range of toys. It’s open<br />

seven days a week for tots aged 0-4 years. And it goes without<br />

saying all nursery staff hold UK-accredited childcare qualifi cations.<br />

Nursery sessions cost extra and need to be pre-booked because<br />

of the strict child to staff ratio.<br />

Weddings<br />

You can even tie the knot at Sensatori Crete. <strong>The</strong> hotel offers a<br />

choice of settings and Big Day trimmings available include spa<br />

treatments for the bride and a romantic champagne breakfast.<br />

Hotels that lead the way in environmental<br />

resources while caring for employees<br />

and the community.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Hotel<br />

Sensatori Mexico is being brought to you by Azul. It’s one of the biggest hotel names in Mexico, so you know you’re<br />

in for something special. In terms of layout, it’s been divided into sections – for example there’s an adults-only quarter<br />

complete with rooms, pool and restaurant. <strong>The</strong>re’s a family zone, too, with rooms close to the kids’ and teen clubs.<br />

Plus, there’s a Premium section where exclusive extras include pillow menus and a pool-side butler service. So although<br />

it’s a big hotel, it’s still got a bespoke feel to it depending on where you base yourself.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Suites<br />

Whichever section you stay in, smart, super-sized suites come as standard. <strong>The</strong>y all feature in-room trimmings, like fl atscreen TVs, DVD players<br />

and iPod stations. <strong>The</strong>y’ve even got hot tubs. <strong>The</strong> bathrooms are great, too, with giant rainforest showerheads among the standout points.<br />

But some rooms deserve a special mention. Like the swim-up suites that let you step straight into the water from your room. A number of<br />

Premium suites even have hot tubs in the water itself. <strong>The</strong>n there are family suites that come with sliding partitions and two plasma TVs, so you<br />

can watch what you like while the children enjoy their cartoons. <strong>The</strong>re are all sorts of variations so you can choose a room that suits you…<br />

<strong>The</strong> Experience<br />

You can join in as much or as little as you like. Learn to scuba dive in the morning. Join a game of beach volleyball after lunch. <strong>The</strong>n head to<br />

the spa for an early evening massage. Or you could just laze away the day by the pool.<br />

• Relaxation <strong>The</strong> spa* here is a great space in which to get<br />

your equilibrium back on track. Some rooms come with an ocean<br />

view, one is especially for couples and there’s even a special bridal<br />

suite. Children don’t miss out either, with their very own<br />

pampering treatments.<br />

• Sports & Activities As well as favourites like tennis, beach<br />

volleyball and football, you can take to the water for kayaking.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s a gym that stays open round the clock, plus yoga sessions<br />

out in the fresh air.<br />

* Some treatments and facilities are payable locally.<br />

Weddings & Honeymoons<br />

Luxury suites with hot tubs. Spa treatments for two. Candlelit dinners on the shore. Weddings and Sensatori Mexico are a natural marriage.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s a hotel wedding co-ordinator to make sure your big day is fl awless. Swap vows on the beach or up on the rooftop and make the<br />

most of extras like a hair and make-up appointment for the bride, a wedding banquet and photographs to mark the occasion.<br />

For something really special there’s a special bridal suite in the spa where you can prepare for your big day. And we can even arrange a<br />

beach picnic or midnight massages a deux. <strong>The</strong>re’s a range of wedding packages to choose from – for details simply just get in touch with<br />

our weddings team. Sensatori Mexico is a great choice for honeymoons and renewal of vows ceremonies, too. Couples can take their pick<br />

from special honeymoon rooms and jumbo suites with hot tubs, all of which have king-size beds. Call 0871 971 0545 † for more details.<br />

† Charges apply – see page 163<br />

Wedding packages at Sensatori start from £1,565<br />

• Play Special mention has to go to the children’s facilities.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’ve got the 21st-century touch. Think Nintendo Wiis,<br />

Playstations and X-boxes*, plus plasma TVs and internet<br />

stations*. Highlights at the Azul-run children’s club include a<br />

Fisher Price room kitted out with all the latest toys, and My Gym*<br />

- a soft play area for children to climb, swing and bounce their<br />

way around. Teens, meanwhile, get their very own hangout<br />

featuring a DJ booth, a cinema screen and a pool table. At night<br />

it transforms into a nightclub with mocktails, a dancefl oor and<br />

chill-out sofas. If you’re coming away with a baby, you can<br />

pre-order free kit including pushchairs, cots, sterilisers and<br />

baby food.


<strong>The</strong> Dining<br />

<strong>The</strong> set-up is 24-hour Gourmet Inclusive, which means all your food and drink is included – and the quality is exceptional.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s a choice of six restaurants. <strong>The</strong> feather in its culinary cap is Le Chique. Here, you’ll be served an eight-course meal<br />

combining fl avours and textures we guarantee you won’t have tried before. All we’ll say is expect the unexpected – it’s a<br />

meal you’ll be talking about for years.<br />

• Le Chique Dressed in magenta, black and silver, this<br />

adults-only restaurant looks more like a Parisian boudoir.<br />

Think haute cuisine with textures and fl avours fashioned to<br />

surprise even the most discerning diner.<br />

• Tapaz Dishes, like shrimp kebabs and crispy calamari, are<br />

placed on a spinning plate in the middle of the table. It sparks a<br />

tearing, dipping, dunking frenzy that stretches into the night.<br />

• Zavaz This Caribbean kitchen serves everything from jerk<br />

chicken to mahi mahi. <strong>The</strong> snacks are good, too, with 5oz grilled<br />

Angus burgers and hot dog paninis.<br />

• Zocalo A cactus here, a Mariachi band there – no prizes for<br />

guessing this is where you can try Mexican favourites.<br />

• Sienna Your fi rst port of call at this Tuscan-inspired trattoria<br />

should be the central table loaded with loaves and speciality oils.<br />

Just save room for all the extra courses the Italians like to<br />

squeeze in.<br />

• Spoon This spacious central venue is where you can go<br />

down the help-yourself route. Hot bacon and eggs, a choice<br />

of fresh fruit and pastries, omelettes cooked to order.<br />

You can have breakfast, lunch and dinner in Spoon or Zavaz. Zocalo is open for brunch through to late lunch. Dinner is served in all<br />

restaurants, and room service is available 24-hours a day.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Entertainment<br />

At Sensatori Mexico, entertainment takes a backseat, allowing dining to take centre-stage. That said, there are some nice touches to look<br />

out for. Saxophonists often play by the adults’ pool. A Mariachi band will sometimes strike up in the Mexican. Talking of restaurants, three<br />

of them have bars where you can enjoy a drink but special mention has to go to the Mojito Lounge. With 30 different types of mojito<br />

on the list, this is the place to wind down come the cocktail hour. Another great venue is the Roof Garden Lounge, the place to head for<br />

nightly shows.<br />

Calls cost up to 10p/min from a BT landline. Mobile and other providers’ charges may vary.<br />

Hotel Florida ttttp<br />

“Set just metres from the beach, Hotel Florida has a setting that’s hard to beat.”<br />

It’s the location that scores top marks here. You’ll find it right in the<br />

heart of Fuengirola, overlooking the harbour. <strong>The</strong> beach is a short<br />

hop from the doorstep. And there are several golf courses in the<br />

area, too. <strong>The</strong> city of Malaga is about a 30-minute drive away, or<br />

you can catch the train from the centre of town.<br />

Setting aside, the pool area is impressive, too. <strong>The</strong> rectangular<br />

swimming pool is quite small but more than adequate for the<br />

number of guests, and - as it’s sheltered by the hotel buildings - the<br />

terrace is a real sun trap. <strong>The</strong>re’s a poolside bar on hand, too, where<br />

snacks are served right through the day.<br />

As for the property itself, it’s simply-styled, glass-trimmed and 12<br />

floors high. Willy Wonka-style glass elevators offer up amazing sea<br />

views. And the lobby and restaurants are spotlit spaces dressed<br />

with marble floors and potted plants. <strong>The</strong> bedrooms, meanwhile,<br />

are modern with pale green walls, chunky wood furniture and floral<br />

linens. In-room extras include satellite TVs and small fridges, not to<br />

mention a slate and marble bathroom.<br />

Last but not least, is the spa - which is said to be one of the best in<br />

Andalucia. Access to the spa circuit comes as standard so you can<br />

really make the most of the sauna, steam bath, the ‘relax’ pool with<br />

its in-water loungers, and the hydrotherapy pool where massages<br />

come courtesy of fountains, jets and waterfalls. That said, signature<br />

treatments such as the chocolate body wrap are well worth paying a<br />

little extra for.<br />

Hotel Riu Ferrara tttt<br />

Looks-wise, the Riu Ferrara might have you thinking you’ve landed<br />

in Italy, not Spain. Instead though, it’s acquired a prime chunk of<br />

real estate on the seafront at Torrox. All it takes to reach the sands<br />

is a stroll through the gateway at the end of the grounds. Once<br />

there, you’ll find Torrox’s cafes, shops and restaurants along the<br />

promenade. Inside, the hotel’s dressed with hanging lanterns, palms<br />

and black-and-white marble floors. <strong>The</strong> rooms employ a mix of<br />

blues and yellows with dark-wood furnishings. Outside, the pool<br />

takes centre-stage. It’s a grand affair, just steps away from a drinks<br />

terrace and pool bar. <strong>The</strong>re’s a spa waiting in the wings as well.<br />

Location • On promenade • 50m to large beach • 50m to cafés<br />

& bars • 100m to restaurant & supermarket • Torrox village nearby<br />

• Bus stop outside hotel for regular service to Nerja & Malaga<br />

Pool area • Swimming pool • Heated indoor pool open in winter<br />

• Terrace • Pool bar serving snacks • Sunbeds • Pool towels<br />

Meals • Non-smoking restaurant • Buffet breakfast, incl. English<br />

Hotel Golden Bahia de Tossa & Spa tttt<br />

“This much-loved hotel has all the ingredients for a laid-back holiday, with, fabulous food and a<br />

sandy beach within strolling distance.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Golden Bahia has a loyal fan base. It draws guests back<br />

year after year for two simple reasons - it’s really well run<br />

and in terms of facilities, it’s got the lot.<br />

Tucked on the outskirts of Tossa de Mar, it’s a short walk<br />

from the castle and some great cliffside pathways. And it’s<br />

also a ten-minute stroll from the sandy beach and cobbled<br />

centre with its tapas bars.<br />

As for the hotel itself, the foyer is rather impressive.<br />

It’s all glossy white marble with mezzanine levels draped<br />

with hanging plants. <strong>The</strong> heart of the hotel is its expansive<br />

main terrace. Speckled with palms, it runs down to<br />

the sports area, where there’s a football pitch and dinky<br />

minigolf course. Set in to the terrace is a lagoon pool,<br />

together with matching whirlpools and a children’s pool.<br />

And behind the parasols is a bistro-style restaurant terrace<br />

for lunchtime snacks. On top of all this - quite literally<br />

- there’s a roof garden with a nudist section and solarium.<br />

<strong>The</strong> food deserves a special mention as well. <strong>The</strong> buffets<br />

are fresh and varied, with breakfast omelettes and other hot<br />

dishes cooked on the spot. And at dinner, expect the full<br />

works - tasty paellas and home-from-home dishes<br />

accompanied by plentiful fresh fruit, salads and desserts.<br />

Hotel Riu Atlantico tttt<br />

“Sugar-soft sands, glistening waters and lashings of sizzling sun - this luxury hotel has got sparkle<br />

by the bucket-load.”<br />

This is the kind of modern hotel your holiday dreams are<br />

made of. It’s all marble pillars, polished floors and silky soft<br />

furnishings at Hotel Riu Atlantico.<br />

It’s the last word in luxury but the atmosphere is so<br />

laidback, you’ll be relaxed and stress-free from the moment<br />

you cross the threshold. And the accommodating staff will<br />

go out of their way to put you at ease. So with all your<br />

holiday needs taken care of, you’re free to make the most<br />

of your time in the sun.<br />

Slip into your swimming costume and head out to the pool.<br />

Pick a spot under a shady parasol and spend a few hours<br />

doing nothing more strenuous that reapplying your<br />

sun cream. <strong>The</strong> Spanish sun gets hot - but don’t worry<br />

with the impressive pool there’s always room for a couple of<br />

laps to cool off.<br />

If you’re bursting with energy there’s plenty of ways to burn<br />

off your bounce. Work off your fantastic buffet breakfast in<br />

the gym. Practise your drop shot on the tennis court. Or, for<br />

a new challenge, try your hand at rifle shooting.<br />

All this and you’re just footsteps from a swathe of soft,<br />

shimmering sand too. So when you’ve tired of all the fun<br />

and games, lie back on the beach and listen to the waves<br />

washing the sand as you drift off - this is the life. In fact,<br />

the only downside to your stay at Hotel Riu Atlantic is<br />

having to go home again.<br />

Fiesta Palladium Palace ttttp<br />

“Hugging a dreamy beach, this hotel has plenty of contemporary swagger.”<br />

This hotel is in a plum spot - Playa d’en Bossa’s sugar-soft<br />

beach is on the doorstep. Plus, it’s just a kilometre or so<br />

from the centre and the nearest shops and restaurants are<br />

a mere five minutes away.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel’s looks deserve a double take, too. It striking<br />

exterior gives way to a lobby that’s as cool as they come.<br />

Think voile drapes, crisp white walls and wicker sofas<br />

perched on funky rugs. On the bedroom front, the hotel<br />

has continued down the contemporary-chic route.<br />

You’ve got warm red-and-cream colour schemes and<br />

oversized beds. All on top of satellite TVs, balconies and<br />

an extra touch of luxury - whirlpool baths.<br />

Outdoors, things are equally impressive. <strong>The</strong>re are two<br />

pools to choose from, each encircled by smart wooden<br />

sunloungers, white canvas parasols and palms. One’s got a<br />

children’s pool so the little ones can have their fun, too.<br />

It’s a similar story on the beach. <strong>The</strong> All Inclusive<br />

programme here includes kayaks and windsurfing boards.<br />

And rounding things off in the sports department is a<br />

well-equipped gym and sandy volleyball court.<br />

Restaurant-wise, there’s the bright and breezy La Sal<br />

serving generous buffet meals. Dinners are particularly good<br />

with chefs ready to cook your meat and fish to order.<br />

And if you want to go gourmet, Portofino’s the place. A<br />

beach bar by day, it’s a candlelit à la carte by night and sits<br />

right beside the sands.<br />

Protur Sa Coma Playa tttt<br />

“Stylish bedrooms, a luxurious spa and great facilities, all close to Sa Coma beach.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel’s Seventies-look exterior is a bit of a red herring.<br />

Inside, it’s undergone a minimalist makeover. <strong>The</strong> revamp<br />

comes to the fore in the bedrooms. Accessorised with<br />

jewel-hued cushions, trendy headboards and flatscreen TVs,<br />

they’re funky in a low-key way. <strong>The</strong> lobby is an eye-opener,<br />

too. It’s a symphony of glass and marble graced with<br />

hanging plants and sofas.<br />

But of course, the décor is only part of the picture.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are the facilities to consider as well. <strong>The</strong> hotel is part<br />

of the bigger Club Protur Sa Coma Resort, so as a guest,<br />

you’ve got the pick of quite a range. <strong>The</strong> biggest draw has to<br />

be the Biomar spa. This haven of tranquillity and treatments<br />

revolves around saunas, Turkish baths and a pool with<br />

water fountains. <strong>The</strong>re’s even an invigorating ice-cave.<br />

Down on the terrace, nodding palms and white parasols<br />

ring the lagoon-style pool. And just a few steps away, you’ll<br />

find La Luna restaurant. Its canopied terrace is set with<br />

wicker armchairs where you can enjoy Mediterraneanthemed<br />

meals. And on the subject of food, the hotel’s<br />

breakfasts will get you in sparkling form - they come with<br />

complimentary glasses of Cava. As if that wasn’t enough,<br />

there’s also a wood-beamed tapas restaurant tucked into<br />

the hotel’s lower floor.<br />

Last but not least is the location. Set along a tree-lined<br />

road, the Protur’s a five-minute walk from Sa Coma beach.<br />

<strong>The</strong> town centre is just a little further - 10 minutes or so.<br />

Grupotel Gran Vista & Spa tttt<br />

“With its spa, gardens and a beach close by, this modern retreat pulls out the stops when it comes to relaxation.”<br />

Top marks have to go to the spa and wellness centre.<br />

With its earthy mosaic tiles and graceful Roman statuettes,<br />

it’s something of a pampering palace. Cue tingling essential<br />

oils showers, Turkish baths and an ice cave. For more by way<br />

of luxury, there’s an indoor pool, too, complete with skylights<br />

and half-submerged loungers.<br />

In fact, everywhere you go here there’s a real emphasis<br />

on relaxation. Step outside and you’re greeted by a lagoon<br />

pool where you can swim around palm-planted islands and<br />

ornamental waterfalls.<br />

Inside, meanwhile, the hotel is bright and fresh and uses<br />

pale-wood furnishings to good effect. <strong>The</strong> simple bedrooms<br />

have been treated to a recent facelift, and emerged in<br />

magnolia and russet shades. <strong>The</strong>y feature all the usual<br />

in-room extras such as satellite TVs, air-conditioning and<br />

good-sized balconies.<br />

On the food front, the buffet restaurant serves up a huge<br />

selection of dishes at every meal, including a healthy<br />

option menu. <strong>The</strong>re’s also a rooftop bar where you can gaze<br />

out over Ca’n Picafort’s pan-tiled houses to the mountains<br />

and sea beyond.<br />

Talking of the Med, it’s more or less on your doorstep.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sandy beach is just across a main road. <strong>The</strong> same<br />

pretty much goes for C’an Picafort itself. <strong>The</strong> hotel’s central<br />

position means you’re only 200 metres or so from its shops,<br />

bars and restaurants, so you can walk into town as and when.<br />

Aparthotel Blanc Palace tttt<br />

“Bright apartments and a cove close by - this aparthotel gets everything right for a chilled-out<br />

family break.”<br />

Swish hotels are all well and good. But if you’ve got the kids<br />

in tow, you need somewhere that will keep them smiling.<br />

And this aparthotel ticks the boxes.<br />

It’s built in low-rise style, so it looks and feels friendly from<br />

the outset. Paved paths and lawns wend their way to the<br />

poolside, where you’ll find sunloungers and parasols flanked<br />

by palms. <strong>The</strong>re are two pools side by side - one large<br />

rectangular one and a smaller number for little ones.<br />

Close by, a pool bar decked with wooden tables and<br />

chairs provides a place to sit with drinks while you watch<br />

over the pool.<br />

Likewise, the interiors strike a good balance between<br />

functionality and style. Take the lobby. It’s got more<br />

than a hint of Ikea about it. Think chunky sofas, lots of<br />

natural light and a vaulted, aircraft-hangar-style ceiling. <strong>The</strong><br />

apartments, meanwhile, mostly draw praise for being<br />

spacious and well equipped. <strong>The</strong>y’re bright and comfortable<br />

with large balconies.<br />

Finally, there’s the location. It’s very quiet, first<br />

and foremost. If you want the beach, there’s a picturesque<br />

cove a five-minute walk down the road and a smattering of<br />

other beaches within easy reach as well.<br />

Grupotel Macarella Suites and Spa tttt<br />

<strong>The</strong> Grupotel Macarella Suites is a typical Spanish retreat.<br />

Think Moorish-arched windows and wrought-iron balconies<br />

curling from terracotta walls. But on closer inspection you’ll see<br />

this hotel combines its Menorcan side with plenty of<br />

contemporary style. <strong>The</strong> lobby, for instance, features authentic<br />

tiled floors and galleried landings with Gothic-style chandeliers<br />

and grand staircases. But the décor is as a modern as they come<br />

with chic wicker sofas and stylish furnishings.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s more of the same in the suites. Spacious, bright and airy,<br />

with soft cream walls and tiled floors, they certainly remind you<br />

you’re in Spain.<br />

<strong>The</strong> pool area is just as much of a sanctuary. <strong>The</strong> freestyle pool<br />

is set into a spacious sun terrace and is bordered by parasols<br />

and sunbeds. <strong>The</strong>re’s also a poolside bar serving cocktails<br />

and snacks. For more in the way of chill out time, head to the<br />

brand new spa. Not only does it boast pampering treatments, a<br />

sauna and a Jacuzzi-style tub, there’s also an inviting pool area<br />

with an aqua circuit. Factor in a gym, a buffet restaurant and the<br />

fact the hotel is just a short walk from the beach and you’ve got a<br />

holiday haven you won’t want to leave.<br />

Location • 300m to resort centre • 150m to beach<br />

• 20m to supermarket • 300m to bars and restaurants<br />

• Bus service to Ciudadela every 30 minutes • Lighthouse and<br />

Clubhotel Riu Guarana<br />

All Inclusive Code KIP<br />

Standard / 2 Adults<br />

ClubHotel Riu Guarana ttttt<br />

and relaxed.”<br />

Everything about this hotel seems double-sized. It’s got 500 rooms<br />

to start with, shared between the eight-storey main building and<br />

two-storey annexe.<br />

<strong>The</strong>n there are the two pools. <strong>The</strong> first is a gigantic expanse<br />

and the second, a kidney bean-shaped number. And they’re<br />

both set into huge, palm-decked terraces laden with sunloungers<br />

and parasols. More than that, there’s a children’s splash pool and a<br />

cube-shaped swim-up bar in the main pool.<br />

It’s a similar story inside. While the exterior is all coral pink, the<br />

lobby-lounge takes its cue from the hip boutique look.<br />

Picture chunky armchairs, square pillars and suede banquettes<br />

set against a monochrome backdrop. As to the rooms, think<br />

toned-down versions of the lobby. Pale green and creams takes<br />

over, with light wood furniture, hooped lampshades and bold<br />

eco-inspired artworks.<br />

<strong>The</strong> food scene revolves around choice. <strong>The</strong> All Inclusive buffets<br />

come courtesy of the main restaurant, where you’ll find a big<br />

selection of international dishes, complete with a carvery. Or reserve<br />

a table at the Yasumi, which serves up Asian cuisine in another cool<br />

minimalist space.<br />

Lastly, the Riu’s in a great spot. Sitting back from a cliff edge it’s got<br />

a sandy cove just below, accessed by nearby steps. A 15-minute<br />

walk also brings you to Praia da Falesia - a sliver of golden sands<br />

that’s the Algarve all over.<br />

Riu Palace Algarve ttttt<br />

“With to-die-for views and beaches steps away, the Riu Palace has peaceful escapes written all over it.”<br />

Spread over pine-sprinkled shores, it’s as if this hotel has<br />

taken all the best bits of the Algarve. Cue rugged, sandy-red<br />

cliffs, tall umbrella pines and a long sandy beach - reached<br />

by long flights of stairs cut into the cliffs.<br />

<strong>The</strong> setting is tranquil, too. You’re just a kilometre from<br />

Olhos d’Agua and a 15-minute cab ride from Albufeira, but<br />

with the hotel gardens and sea views, you could be miles<br />

from anywhere.<br />

Talking of peace and quiet, there’s a sense of hushed<br />

elegance. <strong>The</strong> lobby is a case in point. All miniature chaises<br />

longues and gleaming marble floors, it’s calming and<br />

impressive at the same time. Outside, the soothing<br />

atmosphere continues unabated. <strong>The</strong>re’s a flower-shaped<br />

pool and children’s pool, both set in large tiled terraces<br />

fringed with sunloungers and pretty white parasols.<br />

Looking out over it all is a grand, pillared terrace where you<br />

can sip drinks in the shade. And the final piece in the jigsaw<br />

is the lawns dotted with pines and olive trees.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel does a nice line in luxury as well. <strong>The</strong>re’s a<br />

columned indoor pool and Zen-styled spa with candlelit<br />

massage and beauty rooms. And the main buffet restaurant<br />

is all wall-to-wall marble, spotlights and starched<br />

white linen.<br />

As to the rooms, they’re a mix of dark-wood furnishings and<br />

muted blues and creams, with colonial-style armchairs and<br />

mood lighting. <strong>The</strong>y’ve been given satellite TVs, minibars<br />

and balconies, too - many with front-row views over the sea.<br />

Hotel Riu Palace Madeira ttttp<br />

“Storybook looks. Peace and quiet. To-die-for sea views. <strong>The</strong> Riu Palace lives up to its regal title.”<br />

Terraced into a hillside above Canico waterfront, this hotel<br />

is all slender turrets, glassed archways and<br />

wedding-cake stairways.<br />

Looks aside, it’s in a fantastic spot. <strong>The</strong> hotel is slightly<br />

elevated so it looks straight over the ocean. What’s more,<br />

it’s a couple of kilometres away from Canico proper - perfect<br />

if you’ve set your mind on some peace and quiet. <strong>The</strong>re’s<br />

also a small pebble beach just across the promenade.<br />

Not surprisingly, the two pools are positioned to spotlight<br />

the views. Side by side, they’re framed by terraces. For more<br />

by way of relaxation, there’s a spa and fitness centre, too.<br />

You can call by for a sauna or workout, or head for the<br />

indoor pool. This blue-tiled haven has giant arched windows<br />

so you can swim while soaking up the ocean vistas.<br />

Inside, the lobby has an air of regal Victoriana. It’s a whirl of<br />

wood-pedestalled pillars, velvet red banquettes and<br />

parlour palms. <strong>The</strong> same theme is evident in the rooms.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’re elegant, with dark-wood furnishings and rich blues<br />

and yellows dominating.<br />

Food-wise, there’s more of the same flair. Crisp white linen<br />

and Louis VX-style chairs are used to good effect in the<br />

main restaurant. Overlooking the sea meanwhile, you’ve got<br />

a pretty lounge terrace set with stripey-cushioned chairs<br />

and dinky tables - just the place to survey the views over a<br />

cocktail or pot of tea.<br />

ELEGANT ESCAPES<br />

from Thomson &<br />

<strong>The</strong> Essence of Porto Bay<br />

Peace & Tranquility<br />

Elegant Escapes are luxury hotels and<br />

resorts that shy away from the tourist trail.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’re chosen for their unspoilt scenery<br />

and give you a chance to sample the local<br />

way of life. Combine that with a relaxed<br />

atmosphere, and you’ve got something<br />

really special.<br />

Personal Service<br />

Sophisticated, luxurious and cosy, the hotels<br />

in this collection have paid real attention to<br />

the little details. Things like the quality of<br />

their service and the level of comfort in the<br />

bedrooms. Features that make them all<br />

4T or 5T calibre.<br />

Fine Dining<br />

Good food and world-class chefs are worth<br />

forking out for – and all our hotels have à la<br />

carte restaurants on site should you really<br />

want to splash out. Of course you can<br />

always step outside the gates for a real<br />

flavour of the place at a local eatery. So<br />

whether you go for half board, self catering<br />

or bed and breakfast, fine dining’s a cinch at<br />

an Elegant Escape.<br />

Pampering & Activity<br />

Each resort has a spa – a haven of tranquillity<br />

to escape to the real world. A place where hot<br />

stone massages and aromatherapy go hand<br />

in hand with well-known spa brands like<br />

Decléor. On the flip side, there are more<br />

energetic ways to unwind, like golf and<br />

countryside walks.<br />

A Romantic Retreat<br />

<strong>The</strong> Essence of<br />

Hotel Porto Santa Maria<br />

This hotel knows a thing or two about ‘location, location, location’.<br />

Tucked in the heart of Funchal’s historical quarter, it’s in a great spot for<br />

getting out and about and sea views come courtesy of the harbour.<br />

Cliff Bay Hotel<br />

Voted 2008’s best Top 100 Luxury Hotels in TripAdvisor’s <strong>Travel</strong>lers’<br />

Choice awards, the Cliff Bay Hotel delivers à la carte cuisine, a melt-away<br />

spa and sensational views.<br />

Vila Porto Mare Resort<br />

With seriously good views, beautiful grounds and stacks of<br />

Mediterranean chic, the Vila Porto Mare Resort brings together the<br />

best of two hotels - Suite Hotel Eden Mar and the Hotel Porto Mare.<br />

We Say...<br />

<strong>The</strong> Sao Tiago Fortress is right<br />

next door to the hotel – check<br />

out the modern art gallery, then<br />

head to the restaurant for a<br />

lovely dinner.<br />

Hotel Porto Santa Maria ttttp<br />

This hotel has bagged itself Funchal’s front-row seat. It’s<br />

right in the middle of the old town and looks out across<br />

the yacht-filled port. <strong>The</strong> rooms come with kitchenettes<br />

and verandas, and facilities include a health club, a<br />

lagoon-style swimming pool and a restaurants with an<br />

à la carte option.<br />

Location • As the only hotel right on the<br />

promenade of Funchal’s old town, this place has hit the<br />

location jackpot. <strong>The</strong>re are plenty of shops and<br />

restaurants nearby, and the town’s trademark<br />

17th-century architecture is on tap. What’s more, the<br />

hotel sits right on the water’s edge, so it comes with a<br />

side-order of harbour views. Pebbly Sao Tiago beach and<br />

the Sao Tiago Fortress are on the doorstep, too. Plus<br />

the cable car that runs up to the picturesque village<br />

of Monte is nearby.<br />

Rooms • Not only are all the rooms here modern<br />

and stylish, but they come with the added extra of a<br />

kitchenette so you can rustle up your own meals. On top<br />

of that, they all have balconies. For a view of the Atlantic,<br />

plump for a Sea View Studio. Alternatively, wake up to<br />

the smell of sub-tropical blooms in a Garden View<br />

Studio. If you want to go all out, book a Junior Suite<br />

– they come complete with double beds, and some have<br />

separate living areas. In-room safes are also available<br />

for a little extra.<br />

Dining • <strong>The</strong> hotel offers up huge buffets in the<br />

Arsenal Restaurant, with themed à la carte menus on<br />

hand if you really want to indulge. After-dinner drinks<br />

come courtesy of the Captain’s Bar, where you can gaze<br />

lapping waves, meanwhile, pull up a pew at the<br />

Promenade Bar.<br />

Relaxation • Landscaped gardens, sun terraces<br />

and a large lagoon pool – the Porto Santa Maria has got<br />

the lot. Add an indoor heated pool and a whirlpool bath<br />

– plus a sauna that’s payable locally – and you’ve got<br />

everything you need for a relaxing break, too. If you like<br />

to unwind with a round of golf, there are two courses on<br />

We Say...<br />

<strong>The</strong> self-service laundrette here is<br />

really good value, great if you like<br />

to travel light.<br />

Suite Hotel Eden Mar tttt and<br />

Hotel Porto Mare ttttp<br />

A glamorous couple of hotels, the Suite Hotel Eden Mar<br />

and the Hotel Porto Mare are part of the Vila Porto Mare<br />

Resort. <strong>The</strong> properties are interconnected, and share<br />

their facilities, bringing together restaurants, bars,<br />

swimming pools and a spa.<br />

Location • <strong>The</strong> Vila Porto Mare Resort has really<br />

struck gold with its setting. Peaceful and pretty top the<br />

list, but that’s only half the picture. <strong>The</strong> big show-stealer<br />

is the fact it sits right on Funchal’s Lido promenade.<br />

Something of a local hotspot, it’s lined with cafés and<br />

restaurants. Plus you’re within walking distance of the<br />

pebble beach at Praia Formosa.<br />

Rooms • We could wax lyrical about the bedrooms<br />

at the Vila Porto Mare Resort all day. <strong>The</strong>y’re spacious<br />

and stylish, with cream décor, wood furnishings and<br />

mood lighting. Plus snug beds, plump armchairs and<br />

inviting sofas put them in comfort zone. Each one comes<br />

with satellite TVs, air-conditioning and marble bathrooms,<br />

too, as well as in-room safes which are payable locally.<br />

<strong>The</strong> views steal the show, though. Whether you’re looking<br />

out over the sea, the pool, or the gardens, they’re all<br />

worth writing home about.<br />

Dining • Staying at a hotel that’s part of a resort<br />

means there are more than enough restaurants to work<br />

your way around. For a taste of tradition, the Alfama<br />

serves up a set menu of cuisine the old-fashioned<br />

Portuguese way. Restaurant Med does exactly what it<br />

Video tour & customer reviews<br />

thomson.co.uk<br />

says on the tin, with tasty Mediterranean dishes gracing<br />

the menu. For irresistible Italian fare, meanwhile, pull up<br />

a chair at the à la carte Il Basilico. Or sample the everchanging<br />

buffets at the Atlantida.<br />

Relaxation • Everything here is geared towards<br />

relaxation. Take the sub-tropical gardens – grinding to a<br />

halt here is easy. Dotted with tall palms and manicured<br />

lawns, they frame the resort’s lagoon-like swimming<br />

pools. <strong>The</strong>re are also a couple of indoor pools complete<br />

with saunas and whirlpool baths.<br />

That’s not all<br />

• Gym • Tennis court payable locally • Squash court<br />

payable locally • Aerobics studio •Playroom and<br />

playground • 24 hour room service •Entertainment<br />

programme • Hotel-owned ice cream parlour on the<br />

promenade • Golf practice net • Children’s pool<br />

<strong>The</strong> Cliff Bay Hotel ttttt<br />

As the name suggests, this luxurious hotel is perched on<br />

a cliff overlooking the sea, so the views are the real<br />

talking point. And everything else is just as impressive<br />

– so much so, in fact, TripAdvisor singled it out for its<br />

2009 <strong>Travel</strong>lers’ Choice Award.<br />

Location • If there was an Oscar for best location,<br />

Cliff Bay would be preparing its acceptance speech. Set<br />

on a corner of rocky headland on the edge of Funchal<br />

harbour, it offers up grandstand views of the cruise ships<br />

coming and going. Plus it’s just a five-minute walk to the<br />

Lido’s shops, restaurants and cafés. <strong>The</strong> hotel runs a<br />

courtesy bus to Funchal centre, too.<br />

Rooms • Dressed in sophisticated neutrals, the<br />

rooms here come with satellite TVs, DVD players and tea<br />

and coffee-making equipment as standard. Plus each<br />

one has a marble bathroom and a private balcony or<br />

garden terrace. If you’d like to make the most of the<br />

stellar setting, book a sea-view room.<br />

Dining • Eating in is the new eating out at the Cliff<br />

Bay. Every night there’s something new at the Rose<br />

Garden Restaurant’s themed buffet. At Il Gallo d’Oro<br />

it’s à la carte all the way, with a first-class fusion of Italian<br />

and Mediterranean. <strong>The</strong> restaurant is the proud owner<br />

of the first Michelin star to be awarded on the island,<br />

so remember to dress for the occasion, which means a<br />

jacket and tie for the gents. During the summer, the<br />

hotel might close the Rose garden and set up the Blue<br />

Lagoon Restaurant instead – it means you can enjoy<br />

your dinner al fresco. As for drinks, the Cliff Bar & Bistro<br />

does a mean line in shaken and stirred cocktails.<br />

Relaxation • <strong>The</strong> hotel’s grounds step down the<br />

hillside, so the little extras are tucked-away. Firstly, there’s<br />

a heated indoor-come-outdoor pool set on the top tier<br />

of the sun terrace. From here, you can take the lift right<br />

down to a salt-water lagoon pool at the bottom. <strong>The</strong>re’s<br />

a scuba centre there, too. But the real talking point is<br />

the famous Cliff Bay Spa. Designed by British architect,<br />

James Ward, it combines treatment rooms, garden<br />

gazebos and ESPA products to raise the bar on<br />

relaxation.<br />

That’s not all<br />

• A choice of lounges with sea views<br />

ClubHotel Riu Tikida Palmeraie ttttp<br />

“A new addition to our <strong>Platinum</strong> portfolio, this hotel is a peaceful oasis just a short way<br />

from old Marrakech.”<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’ve recently snipped the opening ribbon on this All Inclusive<br />

hotel. It’s brand new and more than a little bit special. Take its<br />

design, for instance. It looks like a traditional desert village, with<br />

earthy pink annexes sprinkled around oasis-like gardens. <strong>The</strong>re<br />

are 16 acres in total, laid with lawns, palms and hibiscus trees,<br />

and linked by stone-flagged footpaths. <strong>The</strong> size and openness of<br />

the place also makes it feel really peaceful, too.<br />

<strong>The</strong> real showstopper though has to be the pool. It’s super-sized<br />

to say the least - a seemingly endless slab of turquoise.<br />

Marooned in the centre is a pink-domed swim-up bar. And<br />

framing the pool are more stone terraces, lined with sunloungers<br />

and white parasols.<br />

Pool aside, there’s a wellness centre with skin-tingling massages<br />

when you need a perk-me-up. If you want to step things up a<br />

gear, there are tennis courts and a gym. <strong>The</strong>n come the<br />

restaurants. Along with the smart buffet dining room, you’ll find<br />

a fine Moroccan restaurant and a poolside theme restaurant<br />

where you can enjoy light lunches and Italian cuisine for dinner.<br />

<strong>The</strong> rooms, meanwhile, fuse modern style with authentic<br />

Moroccan touches. Think a canvas of dusty pinks iced with satiny<br />

bedcovers, inlaid wooden tables and coffee-hued cushions.<br />

One last thing. <strong>The</strong> hotel’s got itself a place in the smart<br />

Palmeraie district of Marrakech, around a 15-minute cab ride<br />

from its souks and squares. It’s a plus point if you want to do<br />

your sightseeing and then relax in peace and quiet.<br />

Hotel Royal Atlas ttttp<br />

“Nudging a gorgeous sandy beach, this All Inclusive hotel takes modern-Moroccan<br />

chic to a new level.”<br />

Looks-wise, this hotel has taken a leaf straight from the<br />

contemporary interiors bible. Take the reception. It’s a<br />

montage of glowing latticed lanterns, inlaid tables and<br />

low-slung sofas. It’s all set in to a mood-lit space backed by<br />

views over a terrace.<br />

<strong>The</strong> buffet restaurant is a something of a talking point, too.<br />

Here, the designers have combined boldly striped walls, red<br />

leatherette chairs and chandeliers to eye-popping effect.<br />

<strong>The</strong> food is rather good, too - with plenty of hot and cold<br />

choices at breakfast and dinner. On top of that, there’s a<br />

gourmet Moroccan eatery where the meze and mains come<br />

in delicate, mosaic-tiled bowls. Or make a reservation at the<br />

à la carte Italian. Offering views out over the pool, its food<br />

draws rave reviews from guests.<br />

As to the bedrooms, they’re a bit more toned down from a<br />

design perspective. Statement headboards, claret drapes<br />

and plump armchairs add little dashes of luxury. And you’ve<br />

got all those in-room extras like satellite TVs, minibars and<br />

balconies or terraces on hand as well.<br />

Down by the pool, meanwhile, everything is set out to make<br />

the most of the beachfront setting. <strong>The</strong>re’s a lagoon pool<br />

gazing straight out over Agadir’s sands. It’s decorated with<br />

palm-topped islands and has a central, cube-shaped bar.<br />

Location-wise, you’re in a fairly good spot, too. As well as<br />

being plum on the sands, the hotel is on the edge of Agadir,<br />

with the town centre just a ten to fifteen-minute walk away.<br />

Hotel Riu Park El Kebir tttt<br />

“Pulled right up close to the beach, this hotel is the perfect combination of laid-back and lively.”<br />

Rising from the shoreline a couple of kilometres from<br />

Hammamet, this hotel does ‘beachside’ with aplomb. A skip<br />

past the pool, a hop across the palm-planted lawns and<br />

you’re on the sands.<br />

<strong>The</strong> pool has a grandstand spot as well. Surrounded by<br />

terraces dotted with sunloungers and tent-shaped parasols,<br />

it seems to almost dissolve into the sea itself. And rustling<br />

eucalyptus trees complete the picture.<br />

Inside, the Riu Park goes all for out for a modern take on<br />

Tunisian design. <strong>The</strong> lobby is lined with floor-to-ceiling<br />

windows, so one of the first things you see is the sea.<br />

Otherwise, it’s all low Moorish archways, wall lanterns and<br />

gleaming marble centred round an extravagant gold<br />

sculpture of palms.<br />

In terms of food, there’s plenty of choice. <strong>The</strong> buffets<br />

feature everything from local flavours to international<br />

favourites, with many dishes cooked for you on-the-spot.<br />

Or reserve a table at the à la carte Granada, where the<br />

spotlight falls entirely on Tunisian cooking.<br />

Rounding off everything, you’ve got an indoor pool and<br />

thalassotherapy-themed spa. This blue-tiled oasis has<br />

massage and body treatments and even a saltwater pool for<br />

when you want some preening and pampering.<br />

ClubHotel Riu Bellevue Park tttt<br />

Step inside the Bellevue Park and you’ll be forgiven for thinking<br />

you’ve walked into a Bedouin tent. Swathes of muslin cascade down<br />

from the ceiling and bright cushions are scattered on wicker sofas.<br />

<strong>The</strong> bedrooms, meanwhile, are contemporary spaces decked out in<br />

sunshine-yellow. Extras come in the form of satellite TVs and<br />

air-conditioning, while spacious balconies add the finishing touches.<br />

Head outside, and the first thing you’ll notice is the huge swimming<br />

pool. It’s just footsteps from the beach and surrounded by palms<br />

and straw umbrellas. Elsewhere, there’s plenty to keep sporty-types<br />

busy, from tennis courts to a bowling green.<br />

As for mealtimes here, they’re all about big buffets. You’ll also<br />

find on-the-spot cooking stations, so you can have your food<br />

cooked to order. What’s more, themed nights are put on twice a<br />

week so you can sample dishes from other parts of the world.<br />

Lastly, a word on location. <strong>The</strong> hotel is about three kilometres from<br />

the centre of Port El Kantaoui, so it’s pretty quiet. That said, there’s<br />

a bus stop just a couple of minutes’ walk from the lobby, so getting<br />

to the town’s shops and restaurants is easy.<br />

Location • On the beach • 200m to the nearest bus-stop<br />

• 3km to Port El Kantaoui<br />

Skanes Tunisia<br />

Radisson Blue Resort & Thalassa Monastir ttttp<br />

“A fabulous beach and a good line-up of sports makes this hotel a great choice.”<br />

This hotel has a fantastic spot, looking out over Monastir<br />

beach. What’s more, it’s set a little on its own, five kilometres<br />

from the centre, so you’ve got peace and quiet as well.<br />

That said, it’s still easy to get out and about - regular local<br />

buses run into Monastir and Sousse. <strong>The</strong> other thing to<br />

consider is that you’re quite close to the airport, although the<br />

noise causes little disturbance. <strong>The</strong> upside is that your transfer<br />

is short and sweet. In terms of attractions, the pool comes in a<br />

close second to the beach. It’s set in to terraces with palms,<br />

sunbeds and parasols. Between here and the beach, there’s a<br />

lawned garden with a restaurant serving up drinks and à la<br />

carte lunches. <strong>The</strong>re’s plenty going on sports-wise, too,<br />

including tennis and a side-order of watersports on the sands.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel has recently had a makeover so it looks and feels<br />

fresh. <strong>The</strong> refurbished rooms are worth highlighting. <strong>The</strong>y’ve<br />

been touched with the minimalist brush, with satiny cushions,<br />

sleek headboards and a pale colour palette.<br />

One last thing - as well as the main buffet restaurant, there’s a<br />

little Moorish café. With low-slung sofas and hanging lanterns,<br />

it’s a perfect hideaway for quiet drinks or snacks.<br />

Location • On the beach • 6km to marina • 5km to centre of<br />

Your Itinerary<br />

Day 1 - UK - Luxor<br />

Fly direct to Luxor and join the Crown Prince, moored on the<br />

banks of the Nile.<br />

Day 2 - Luxor - West Bank - Edfu<br />

Visit the famous Valley of the Kings, the Colossi of Memnon<br />

and the Temple of Queen Hatchepsut.<br />

Built on the remains of the ancient city of <strong>The</strong>bes, Luxor is<br />

renowned for its overwhelming profusion of archaeological<br />

relics. Nearby lies the world famous Valley of the Kings where<br />

over 700 royal sepulchres pepper the arid hillsides. Like an<br />

intrepid explorer, uncover the myriad of vaults and chambers<br />

that make up this vast Pharaonic resting ground. You’ll also get<br />

to visit the Colossi of Memnon, an enormous pair of enthroned<br />

statues that once guarded the entrance to a long lost temple.<br />

Round off your day with one of the most impressive sights on<br />

Luxor’s West Bank, the Temple of Queen Hatchepsut. Built in<br />

honour of the only woman to ever reign over Egypt as pharaoh,<br />

it’s built into a cliff-face and rises up in a series of monumental<br />

terraces. Gaze in amazement at elegant columns stretching into<br />

cloudless blue skies and wonder in awe at the hieroglyphics.<br />

Day 3 - Edfu - Kom Ombo - Aswan<br />

Visit one of the Nile’s “must-see” sites - the Temple of Horus.<br />

Dedicated to the falcon-headed sky god, the huge edifice of the<br />

Temple of Horus is perhaps the best preserved of Egypt’s<br />

ancient shrines and provides an excellent insight into how<br />

temples once looked. Two giant granite falcons greet you as you<br />

pass through the gateway, beyond which lies an extensive<br />

network of splendid colonnades, courtyards and sanctuaries<br />

adorned with detailed wall carvings. Sailing on to Kom Ombo,<br />

visit the fascinating Temple of Sobek. Set on the banks of the<br />

Nile, the Temple is unique in that it was dedicated to two<br />

divinities, falcon-headed Haroeris and the crocodile god, Sobek.<br />

<strong>The</strong> dual nature of the Temple is reflected in the twin entrances,<br />

chapels and halls that make up this site.<br />

58 thomson.co.uk<br />

A treasure trove of ancient sights…<br />

Step aboard and prepare to be thrown back in time to a magical land of myth and wonder.<br />

Explore archaeological sites where the names of once great pharaohs and jackal-headed gods<br />

echo upon the winds. Offset these ancient splendours with Egypt’s modern achievements<br />

including the mighty Aswan High Dam. Join us on this cruise of discovery as you wend your way<br />

along the sparkling waters of the River Nile to some of Egypt’s most impressive treasures.<br />

Day 4 - Aswan<br />

Be awed by the massive Aswan dam and later enjoy a relaxed<br />

boat trip out to Elephantine Island.<br />

Visit a modern-day example of monumental construction as<br />

you sail to the spectacular Aswan High Dam. <strong>The</strong> sheer size of<br />

the barrage is sure to overwhelm you. Nearby lies one of<br />

Egypt’s most enchanting sites. Philae Temple was very nearly<br />

lost forever. However, thanks to the efforts of UNESCO, the<br />

temple was removed and reassembled stone by stone on<br />

Agilkia Island. <strong>The</strong> shrine was dedicated to the cult Isis, the<br />

goddess of nature, and boasts an impressive colonnade and<br />

two enormous stone pylons with carved reliefs. Later, enjoy a<br />

boat ride to view Elephantine Island. Among its lush palms are a<br />

number of bright blue, pink and yellow Nubian houses.<br />

Day 5 - Aswan - Esna<br />

A day to relax or to take the opportunity to visit Abu Simbel.<br />

Enjoy a morning at leisure in Aswan or join the optional<br />

excursion out to Abu Simbel to see the towering figures of gods<br />

and pharaohs on the facade of the Temple of Ramses II.<br />

Day 6 - Esna - Luxor: East Bank excursion<br />

Your chance to visit Karnak & Luxor Temples.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Temple of Karnak never fails to evoke wonder<br />

and amazement. This expansive site incorporates no fewer than<br />

three shrines as well as a myriad of obelisks and monuments.<br />

Make sure you take a look at the enormous Hypostyle Hall,<br />

boasting over 130 soaring papyrus-shaped columns. Returning<br />

to Luxor, visit the architectural masterpiece that is Luxor Temple.<br />

Follow an avenue of sphinxes down to the shrine itself and<br />

discover its elegant array of courtyards and chapels overlooking<br />

the sparkling waters of the Nile.<br />

Day 7 - Luxor - Qena - Luxor<br />

Explore the remains of the Temple of Denderah.<br />

Built in honour of the cow-headed Egyptian goddess of love,<br />

Hathor, the great Temple of Denderah is actually a Roman<br />

creation. Built during the Roman occupation, it emulates<br />

traditional Egyptian architectural styles but with a Latin twist.<br />

Make sure you take a look at the famous astronomical ceiling in<br />

the Hypostyle Hall. Its symbolic representation of heavenly<br />

bodies and signs of the zodiac offers a unique insight into<br />

ancient Egypt’s solar rituals and cults.<br />

Day 8 - Luxor - UK<br />

Your cruise along the Nile comes to an end in Luxor where<br />

you’ll be transferred to the airport for your return flight to the<br />

UK. Alternatively, choose to extend your holiday in Egypt.<br />

From the outside, this place looks a bit like an Egyptian village.<br />

Its grounds are terraced with simple-looking whitewashed villas<br />

connected with little pathways, rivers and stone-flagged steps.<br />

But inside, it’s a different story. <strong>The</strong> interiors are palatial,<br />

especially the lobby. Set around a marbled tier, it’s topped by a vast<br />

ceiling dome. A grand staircase sweeps down to the lower level,<br />

serving up flashes of the Red Sea.<br />

Beyond lie the pools. Set in to split-level terraces are four lagoon<br />

affairs, fringed by palms and parasols. Lawns and flower-draped<br />

steps lead to poolside bars and beyond is the hotel’s private beach.<br />

At the end of a jetty is another trump card - the house reef.<br />

Because the Renaissance overlooks the Ras Mohammed National<br />

Park, it’s got fish-filled coral gardens on its doorstep.<br />

As to the accommodation, think elegant rooms fusing<br />

swag-and-tailed drapes with mood lighting and rich wood furniture.<br />

Restaurant-wise, it’s all about choice. <strong>The</strong> buffet breakfasts are<br />

include chefs who’ll cook your eggs to order. Elsewhere, there’s Il<br />

Palio, where elaborate Tuscan dishes are presented in ultra-chic<br />

surroundings. Or head for Acapulco Joe’s - for Mexican cuisine.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel lies a little away from Naama Bay - eight kilometres to be<br />

exact - and runs a shuttle bus to and fro.<br />

Location • Private beach - sea accessed via a jetty • Naama Bay<br />

8km - shuttle bus service for shops, nightlife and restaurants<br />

• 1km to Old Sharm where traditional styles of architecture are<br />

still prominent • Lie back on the man-made sandy beach nearby<br />

Jaz Mirabel Beach ttttt<br />

“This hotel has something for everyone. It has an amazing seafront location and a fantastic range<br />

of activities and spa treatments.”<br />

It goes without saying, there’s more to a holiday than simply<br />

sunbathing and you’ll find loads to do at Mirabel Beach.<br />

Practise your serve on the tennis court. Or hit the hotel’s<br />

private beach for an energetic game of volleyball.<br />

<strong>The</strong> fitness room’s really something, too, filled with<br />

state-of-the-art equipment that’ll make sure you get a<br />

good workout. And afterwards you can reward yourself with<br />

a trip to the health club. Melt away the day in the whirlpool,<br />

enjoy a little ‘me’ time in the sauna, or take advantage of<br />

the nine sumptuous treatment rooms.<br />

When you do decide you’re ready for a little tanning time,<br />

you’ll be spoilt for choice. <strong>The</strong> pool area is impressive to say<br />

the least, with four large swimming pools beckoning you in<br />

for a dip. A spacious sun terrace frames the pool complex,<br />

with plenty of sunloungers for you to top up your tan.<br />

Pool life aside, venture through a swaying curtain of palms<br />

and you’ll come to the beach. Here, sink your toes into the<br />

sun-kissed sands or make a beeline for one of the thatched<br />

parasols and relax in the shade with a good book. If you do<br />

find yourself getting too hot, then grab your mask and<br />

snorkel and go check out the sealife that Sharm El Sheikh’s<br />

famous for.<br />

Besides the main restaurant, there’s a choice of à la carte<br />

eateries, if you pay a supplement, not to mention two pool<br />

bars and another one on the beach so you’ll never have far<br />

to go for a bite to eat or a refreshing drink.<br />

In the evening, there’s an amphitheatre where you can catch<br />

a show. Stylish and comfortable bedrooms put the final seal<br />

on this impressive property, the perfect base for your<br />

Egyptian escape.<br />

Iberotel Palace ttttp<br />

they come.”<br />

Sharm El Sheikh is renowned for its all-singing, all-dancing hotels.<br />

But this one is cut from a different cloth. Because it’s smaller and<br />

cosier it sits right at the more intimate end of the Sharm spectrum.<br />

Take the main terrace. With one end opening to the sandy beach, it<br />

doesn’t spread its wares far and wide. Instead, it keeps things<br />

simple, with two split-level lagoon pools ringed by bougainvilleadraped<br />

terraces, sunloungers and parasols.<br />

As for facilities, you’ve got a Roman-style indoor pool, tennis and<br />

great evening entertainment - cue a pub-themed bar that hosts live<br />

music most nights. Regular Egyptian folklore shows add spice.<br />

In terms of location, the hotel is a two-minute walk from Old<br />

Sharm - and Naama Bay is a short bus or taxi ride away.<br />

What’s more, the hotel runs free boats to and from an offshore<br />

coral reef when you’re up for some snorkelling.<br />

Like the rest of the interiors, the bedrooms are comfortably done<br />

out without being OTT. <strong>The</strong>y’re finished in soft creams with<br />

pale-wood furnishings and marble floors. Plus, they all come with<br />

balconies or terraces furnished with wicker patio sets.<br />

Location • Set on its own exclusive beach • 100m to Old Sharm<br />

• 100m to nearest café • 200m to supermarket • Bus to Naama<br />

Bay, 8km away, 3 times a day<br />

Pool area • 2 swimming pools • Sun terraces • Sunbeds<br />

Hotel Intercontinental ttttt<br />

In the luxury stakes, this hotel takes some beating. Even its setting<br />

falls into the spoil-yourself bracket. You’ve got close-up views over<br />

the Sinai mountains on one side and golden sands and the Red<br />

Sea on the other. You’re a full 17 kilometres from Taba proper, so if<br />

peace and quiet is on your wish list, you’re in the right spot.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel struts its stuff in grand fashion. <strong>The</strong> lobby has a palatial<br />

atrium echoing a Spanish-Arabic fortress. It’s all thin arched<br />

windows, blue glass lanterns and potted yukka palms. <strong>The</strong> theme<br />

continues throughout the hotel. Take the Arches bar. In the evening,<br />

it’s filled with pink and lime beanbags and copper-trayed tables -<br />

quintessential Arabia with a funky contemporary twist.<br />

Talking of bars, you’ve got three others to choose from. Not to<br />

mention four restaurants serving up everything from Egyptian meze<br />

to Italian and fresh seafood.<br />

<strong>The</strong> piece de resistance has to be the man-made lagoon.<br />

Its blue-green shallows run right up to the beach and are perfect<br />

for swimming. Floating at one end is the Lagoon restaurant.<br />

Kitted out with canvas chairs and bareboarded decks, it serves up a<br />

fusion of Spanish and Arabic cuisine inches above the water.<br />

Added to that, you’ve got more pools and a mini-aqua park. And for<br />

more in the way of relaxation, there’s a spa and 18-hole golf course.<br />

Location • Set on its own private 250m long white sandy beach<br />

• Next to Taba Heights 18-hole golf course • 17km from Taba<br />

• 35km from Taba International Airport<br />

Iberotel Lamaya Resort ttttt<br />

“Rated highly by our guests, this family-friendly hotel delivers a lounge-around holiday.”<br />

This hotel notches up excellent reviews from guests. But not<br />

because it’s extravagantly luxurious. Instead, its ratings come down<br />

to three other things - its setting, cuisine and service. <strong>The</strong> hotel<br />

snuggles up to a half-moon cove. <strong>The</strong>re’s a jetty from where you<br />

can snorkel. And on the beach itself, you’ve got thatched parasols<br />

teamed with wicker sunbreaks. Peace and quiet isn’t in short<br />

supply, either. <strong>The</strong>re’s little else nearby apart from neighbouring<br />

hotels, with the nearest town, El Quseir, 67 kilometres away.<br />

<strong>The</strong> pools, meanwhile, are set in to huge sun terraces that look out<br />

towards the bay. While the main lagoon number is set a little back,<br />

the children’s pool sits at the front alongside palm-peppered lawns.<br />

And talking of little ones, there’s a children’s club, a playroom and a<br />

dinky baby pool, too. <strong>The</strong> cuisine is worth a mention as well. Guests<br />

reserve particular praise for the variety of buffet dishes. Head into<br />

the Al Diwan restaurant at breakfast and you’ll find a huge array of<br />

dishes to choose from, plus chefs to cook your eggs to order. It’s the<br />

same at dinner, with gargantuan displays of international favourites<br />

along with a carvery and BBQ. Lastly, there’s the service to consider.<br />

<strong>The</strong> staff are ready to go the extra mile, whether that means<br />

opening up your parasols and fetching your towels.<br />

Location • Peaceful location on one side of Coraya Bay<br />

• Stretch of beach equipped with sunbeds, umbrellas and a bar<br />

serving snacks • 5km from Marsa Alam airport<br />

Pool area • 3 swimming pools with views across the bay • 2 pools<br />

Jaz Oriental Resort ttttt<br />

<strong>The</strong> real talking point is the location. Set on a long stretch of<br />

private beach, the low-level terracotta hotel is just footsteps<br />

from ivory sands and clear blue waters.<br />

Just metres from the beach is a large rectangular pool lined<br />

with tall palms and plush loungers. Manicured lawns provide<br />

additional chill-out spots, while a relaxed poolside bar<br />

completes the tranquil set-up.<br />

When it comes to dining, the hotel’s main restaurant offers<br />

larger-than-life buffets, with a different theme each night of<br />

the week. If you really want to indulge though, book a table at<br />

the Lebanese à la carte. And for those al fresco lunches, the<br />

beach bar serves up cocktails and light dishes just metres from<br />

the sea.<br />

Another great thing about this place is the lengthy list of<br />

activities on offer. Sports fans can pass the hours at the tennis<br />

and multi-purpose courts, or head to the archery club to test<br />

out their bow-and-arrow skills. <strong>The</strong>re’s also a gym here, as well<br />

as a spa which offers on-the-beach massages.<br />

Rounding off the five-star facilities are the bedrooms.<br />

Comfortable and well-dressed, they’re really luxurious spaces.<br />

Think smart cream walls, plush beds and traditional touches<br />

in the form of North African detailed mirrors and dark<br />

wooden furniture. Plus each one comes with a satellite TV<br />

and air-conditioning.<br />

set the stage for chilling out. On the food front, you’ve got<br />

several à la carte options on top of the All Inclusive buffets. .<br />

Amara Beach Resort ttttt<br />

“With its impressive facilities and beachside setting, this resort pushes the right buttons for a<br />

chilled-out or fun-filled break.”<br />

This hotel does nothing by halves - especially when it comes to<br />

facilities. Among others, you’ve got a thalasso-themed beauty<br />

centre, an aquapark and a bowling alley. And they’re all right by<br />

a coarse sandy beach with loungers and sunshades.<br />

<strong>The</strong> main pool is a rectangular number that drops away to a<br />

smaller one on the terrace below. Around it there are large<br />

terraces, a pair of poolbars and an al fresco bistro. Talking of<br />

restaurants, the main buffet restaurant is laid out with huge<br />

selections at every meal. You’ve also got three à la carte<br />

eateries. And as part of the All Inclusive package, you’ve got<br />

carte blanche to eat in all three once during your stay.<br />

Lastly, you’ve got Side relatively close by - dolmus services and<br />

taxis will run you there in around twenty to thirty minutes.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s also a sprinkling of shops, bars and restaurants<br />

practically on the doorstep.<br />

Susesi Deluxe Resort & Spa ttttt<br />

“Fabulous gardens, amazing pools, and a great beach - all brought together in one seriously<br />

striking hotel.”<br />

All sleek lines this modern hotel sits at the contemporary<br />

end of the design spectrum. It’s a similar story inside.<br />

<strong>The</strong> lobby, with its fusion of browns and creams, has got<br />

21st-century coffee table book written all over it. Likewise,<br />

the bedrooms. Decorated in modish blues and beiges, they<br />

come with flatscreen TVs, plump beds and sleek wooden<br />

furniture. <strong>The</strong>y’re spacious, too, with balconies or terraces.<br />

<strong>The</strong> same interior flair characterises the nine restaurants.<br />

Far from running out of ideas, the hotel’s designers have<br />

turned each one into a set piece. <strong>The</strong> buffet restaurant has<br />

a Japanese feel, with lacquered black chairs. <strong>The</strong>re’s also an<br />

Italian, filled with pillars and Roman-torch wall lights. <strong>The</strong><br />

star turn though is the steakhouse. It’s got a dining island<br />

set in to a pool and is topped with a funky, spired roof.<br />

On the pool front, there are four in total, scattered<br />

throughout landscaped grounds. On top of that, there’s<br />

an aqua park on-site.<br />

As for location, it’s arguably one of the best in Belek. You’ve<br />

got your own sandy beach, accessed through the grounds,<br />

and furnished with sunloungers and billowing blue canopies.<br />

And Belek itself is a 25-minute walk away. If you don’t fancy<br />

the legwork, the hotel has a bus to run you there and back.<br />

Amara Wing Resort ttttt<br />

With the pine-covered Toros Mountains on one side and the<br />

sparkling blue Med on the other, this hotel is in an<br />

unbeatable location. Fantastic views can be seen from practically<br />

anywhere in the grounds, and the surrounding forest gives the<br />

whole complex a secluded, hideaway feel. What’s more, there’s a<br />

private Blue Flag beach on the doorstep.<br />

Setting aside, the facilities really set this place. Take the pool scene,<br />

for instance. <strong>The</strong> main pool spans more than 1,000 square metres,<br />

and comes complete with a whirlpool bath. You’ll also find an<br />

activity pool, as well as an aqua park with three slides and a splash<br />

pool for little ones.<br />

On the sports front, there’s everything from tennis to yoga.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel has a gym, too, featuring all the latest equipment.<br />

And when it comes to soothing those tired muscles, the spa is on<br />

hand with a sauna, a Turkish bath and a lengthy massage menu.<br />

<strong>The</strong> whole complex really looks the part, too. From the outside, the<br />

tall main building stands proud among the pools and gardens. <strong>The</strong><br />

interiors, meanwhile, are seriously smart. In the lobby, that means<br />

spot-lit walls and high ceilings. In the bedrooms, expect comfy<br />

beds and sofas, dressed in a coffee-and-cream colour scheme.<br />

Lastly, the hotel’s dining scene is just as impressive as the rest of<br />

the hotel. As well as a huge buffet restaurant, you’ve got five à la<br />

cartes to choose from, with Italian, French and Turkish cuisines<br />

among the options.<br />

Montana Pine Resort ttttp<br />

rather special.”<br />

Tucked in to pine-cloaked mountains a kilometre from Hisaronu,<br />

this property looks out over hills to the Med in the distance.<br />

Its location is secluded, so it’s perfect if you’re looking for peace and<br />

quiet. That said, there’s a courtesy bus and cabs to take you to<br />

Olu Deniz. It’s the views that steal the spotlight here. For the best,<br />

settle around the Dolphin pool - its terrace seems to dissolve into<br />

the green backdrop. As far as looks go, the annexes are tiered into<br />

the hillside, and they’re built using lots of pine in a nod to<br />

traditional Turkish mountain architecture. On the food front, there’s<br />

the main Pinewood restaurant, lined by an elevated terrace so you<br />

can eat outdoors at breakfast and dinner. By the Marmara pool,<br />

there’s La Turquoise, which specialises in rustic Turkish cuisine.<br />

For pre-dinner drinks, the place to be is the Sunset Bar. It’s a great<br />

spot for watching the sun set over the mountains.<br />

Hotel Belcekiz Beach tttt<br />

“A beachfront setting, extensive gardens and lots in the way of entertainment. No wonder the Belcekiz<br />

is a hit with guests.”<br />

This hotel deserves a few prizes for its location. Hemming the<br />

waterfront in Olu Deniz, it’s just footsteps from the beach,<br />

where you’ll find soft sands and pebbles washed by azureblue<br />

waters. <strong>The</strong>re are also bars, shops and restaurants right<br />

on your doorstep. What’s more, the hotel is in a ringside seat<br />

for watching one of Olu Deniz’ favourite pastimes. Paragliding<br />

is a big favourite here, and paragliders often swoop right<br />

down the sands to the cheers of onlookers.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel also stands in lovely gardens. Arranged in candypainted<br />

annexes spread around the grounds, it’s got a<br />

definite Mediterranean- village quality. Bright bougainvillea<br />

trails over wooden trellises, pine trees tickle pan-tiled roofs<br />

and wrought-iron balconies peep over footpaths.<br />

Tucked into the gardens is a lagoon-like pool. Overlooking it<br />

is the main buffet restaurant, whose chairs and tables spill<br />

out to the poolside on summer nights. <strong>The</strong>re’s also a gourmet<br />

Indian eatery where you can dine just inches from the sands.<br />

One last thing. <strong>The</strong> Belcekiz has made quite a name for itself<br />

on the evening entertainment front. It’s even got its own<br />

outdoor arena that arcs over the lagoon pool. During high<br />

season, it’s the setting for a whole variety of acts, from belly<br />

dancing shows to cabarets and mini-musicals.<br />

Le Méridien St Julians Hotel & Spa ttttt<br />

If a bit of pampering is order, this place is just the ticket. Offering<br />

up 1600 square metres of luxury spa facilities, it goes all out to<br />

impress. Take a dip in the tropical indoor pool, relax in the saunas<br />

and hot tubs, or try out the machines in the state-of-the-art gym.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are plenty of treatments to choose from, too, with everything<br />

from body scrubs to Oriental head massages on the menu.<br />

Another great thing about this place is the rooftop pool. It’s framed<br />

by a spacious terrace, and comes with fantastic views. <strong>The</strong>re’s an<br />

open-air brasserie up here, too, where you can enjoy Mediterranean<br />

dishes while looking out over Balluta Bay.<br />

Elsewhere, the hotel’s main restaurant serves up huge buffets for<br />

breakfast and dinner. For lighter bites, the lounge bar and coffee<br />

house have a great selection of salads, sandwiches and pastries.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel really looks the part, too. In the lobby, comfy sofas<br />

are set between large pillars, while high ceilings cover polished<br />

marble floors. In the bedrooms, things are really funky, with<br />

brightly-coloured walls and patterned soft furnishings. In-room<br />

extras come in the form of flatscreen TVs and air-conditioning,<br />

while spacious balconies complete the set-up.<br />

Last but not least, a word on location. <strong>The</strong> coast is less than a<br />

ten-minute walk away, while the cafés, restaurants and shops of<br />

St Julians are even closer.<br />

Location • 700m to rocky coastline • 4km to sandy beach<br />

Hotel Athena Royal Beach ttttp<br />

Locations don’t get much better than this. With nothing but a<br />

pool terrace and a narrow strip of garden to separate it from<br />

the beach, Athena Royal impresses from the start. <strong>The</strong> beach is<br />

a golden strip of sand and shingle, which runs the full length of<br />

the hotel, so all the outdoor spaces come with sea views.<br />

Taking centre-stage on the beachfront are three large pools.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’re set into huge terraces dotted with wooden sunbeds.<br />

And as the hotel is strictly adults-only territory the atmosphere<br />

is as tranquil as it gets. Away from the beach, you’ll find a spa<br />

offering body wraps and massages, and activities that range<br />

from tennis and lawn bowls to minigolf and a golf academy. Plus<br />

you can hire a bike and set out for an exploration of Paphos.<br />

Indoors, meanwhile, the bedrooms have been decorated in<br />

warm peach and blue hues and feature big beds and comfy<br />

chairs. Extras like mini-fridges, TVs and radios all come as<br />

standard. As for food, with three eateries, as well as the Olive<br />

Grill Bar for snacks, there’s no shortage of choice. You’ve got<br />

everything from the Oasis Restaurant for buffet breakfasts and<br />

light lunches, to the Aphrodite à la carte where white linen and<br />

candlelight create the perfect mood for dinners à deux.<br />

Location • Right by the beach • 100m to bars, restaurants<br />

• Bus-stop in front of the hotel<br />

Hotel St George ttttt<br />

“<strong>The</strong> newly renovated St George is wowing returning guests all over again.”<br />

Entering the vast atrium at the entrance to this hotel makes you<br />

feel rather small - in the nicest possible way. It’s because it’s so<br />

cavernous - shining marble floors and tall white columns stretch<br />

way above the open staircases. Almost like pillars on a giant<br />

wedding cake.<br />

It’s an impressive introduction. And closer acquaintance<br />

doesn’t disappoint. <strong>The</strong> recent renovations have added a<br />

contemporary zip to this beachside hotel. <strong>The</strong> lobby is a case in<br />

point, dotted with wicker-backed chairs and glass-topped<br />

coffee tables.<strong>The</strong> bedrooms, meanwhile, are fairly simple, with<br />

bright splashes of colour coming from the funky bedspreads.<br />

Outside, a big spacious swimming pool takes centre-stage.<br />

Facing out to sea, it’s got waterfalls and a pool bar you can swim<br />

up to. Extensive terraces and lawns provide lots of space for<br />

loungers and parasols. You’ve also got the option of an<br />

indoor pool. Elsewhere, tennis, squash courts, watersports and a<br />

gym ensure there’s always plenty to do. And where relaxation is<br />

concerned, the spa here is particularly impressive. <strong>The</strong> slender<br />

columns and mosaic tiles give it an almost Roman feel.<br />

If the hotel has a final trump card, it’s the staff. Ever attentive<br />

and friendly, they go out of their way to meet your every need.<br />

Not surprising that people keep coming back to the St George.<br />

Atlantica Miramare Beach ttttt<br />

“<strong>The</strong> Atlantica Miramare is a contemporary hotel in a plum beachfront spot.”<br />

It’s the outdoor scene that sets this hotel apart.<br />

Not only is it pulled right up against its own private beach,<br />

its twin pools are bordered by lush palms and white<br />

canvas parasols. Plus there’s a swim-up bar. Away from the<br />

poolside, sleek decked terraces dotted with cushioned<br />

wicker chairs and oversized umbrellas make a quiet spot<br />

to relax.<br />

Inside, the lobby and cocktail bar is all sink-into-me<br />

sofas in shades of coffee and cream, and black leather<br />

chaises longues. Bedrooms, meanwhile, are air-conditioned<br />

and spacious with large beds. Many of the balconies are big<br />

enough to dine out on.<br />

Talking of food, there’s the main Thalassa restaurant, that’s<br />

all warm honey-coloured walls and linens. It opens out on<br />

to a panoramic terrace with views across the pools and sea.<br />

For an à la carte lunch or dinner, the Mermaid open-air<br />

restaurant by the main pool fits the bill. Lavish buffets and<br />

themed nights keep things interesting.<br />

Last but not least, this hotel knows how to pamper<br />

its guests. <strong>The</strong> spa offers up a sauna and steam<br />

room, not to mention muscle-melting massages and<br />

beauty treatments.<br />

Atlantica Aeneas Resort & Spa ttttt<br />

“So much to do, so much to enjoy at the Atlantica Aeneas - all wrapped up in 5 star luxury.”<br />

It’s hard to know where to begin at the Atlantica Aeneas. Take<br />

the huge swimming pool snaking round the complex, for<br />

instance. It’s one of the largest in the world and comes<br />

complete with water jets, whirlpool baths and fountains. Plus<br />

it’s got three bars, including a swim-up variety. Terraces and<br />

gardens dotted with sun-loungers and parasols add the<br />

finishing touches to pool perfection.<br />

<strong>The</strong>n there’s the food. Expect everything from piled-high<br />

buffets to poolside snacks and gourmet dinners. Lots of<br />

special themed nights up the ante even further - Greek,<br />

Mexican, Italian and Chinese cuisine is all on the menu. Love<br />

seafood? <strong>The</strong>n don’t miss fish night with net-fresh spoils laid<br />

out in traditional fishing boats.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Atlantica Aeneas doesn’t disappoint when it comes to<br />

activities either. <strong>The</strong>re are courts for tennis and squash,<br />

pitches for football and things like aqua aerobics and water<br />

polo in the pool. It’s more of the same when it comes to<br />

evening entertainment. At the flamboyant end of the<br />

spectrum, there’s everything from illusionists to cabaret acts<br />

and folk dancing. Mellow tones from the cocktail bar pianist<br />

provide a more low-key contrast.<br />

Factor in that the hotel is set in 14 acres of quiet landscaped<br />

gardens - a stone’s throw from beautiful Nissi Beach - and<br />

there’s little need to ever venture out. But if you should feel<br />

the tug of the bright lights and brash fun of Ayia Napa, it’s<br />

two and a half kilometres away.<br />

stylish getaway.”<br />

With an interior worthy of a top London address, six acres of<br />

landscaped gardens and a set of pools straight out of a magazine<br />

It’s a chic-looking complex that wraps around pools, gardens and<br />

sundecks. Dotted with parasols and sunloungers, the four pools<br />

are woven together with little walkways and arched bridges. Plus<br />

there are two outdoor mosaic whirlpool tubs. Add a beach just a<br />

couple of minutes’ walk away and the scene is set.<br />

And the picture-perfect theme doesn’t stop there. Cue a huge<br />

marble lobby with an Art Deco-style stained glass roof. As for the<br />

rooms, they’re on the chic-side, too. Contemporary and spacious,<br />

they all come with marble bathrooms, a seated area and a<br />

balcony or terrace.<br />

Last but not least, there’s the range of restaurants and bars.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are four eateries to choose from, serving buffet and à la<br />

carte meals in stylish surroundings. Cue crisp, white table linen,<br />

and a menu of Cretan, Greek and Italian dishes, plus themed<br />

buffets, too. As for the bars, there are three in all. <strong>The</strong> showstealer<br />

is the Thalos pool bar that comes complete with waterfalls.<br />

Hotel Cretan Park ttttt<br />

takes for a peaceful break.”<br />

If a quiet, relaxing break is what you’re after, the Cretan Park’s<br />

location takes some beating. It’s perfectly positioned on its own<br />

private sandy beach, backed by acres of countryside. <strong>The</strong> hotel<br />

complex itself has plenty of natural beauty. And sitting pretty in<br />

the grounds are attractive pools and a lazy river bordered by<br />

decked terraces with comfortable wooden loungers. Heading<br />

inside, it’s clear to see that style is important to the owners.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s an eye-catching mixture of traditional and modern styles,<br />

evident in the glamorous reception area. But don’t think this place<br />

is all style and no substance. <strong>The</strong>re’s plenty to keep you amused.<br />

As well as the swimming pools there’s tennis, watersports,<br />

aerobics - you can even try making your own T-shirts. <strong>The</strong> Cretan<br />

Park’s secluded position outside Malia is what attracts many of its<br />

guests. But at a distance of just one kilometre it’s an easy trip for<br />

anyone who wants to party. And those guests who stay around in<br />

the evening can enjoy a show, or a live band by the pool.<br />

Location • Set on the north coast • 1km to Malia town centre<br />

• 30km to Aghios Nikolaos • 35km to Heraklion • Regular bus<br />

services stop outside the hotel between May and September<br />

Pool area • 2 swimming pools - main pool with terraces & pool<br />

Grecotel El Greco ttttt<br />

“A tiered pool and organic salads on the menu - just two of the things that set this hotel apart.”<br />

Truly family-friendly, this hotel pampers its pint-sized guests<br />

every bit as much as the grown-ups. <strong>The</strong>ir brightly coloured<br />

Grecoland Club is a miniature version of a Venetian harbour,<br />

and Tasty Corner serves them up snacks. <strong>The</strong>re’s even a<br />

club for teens. Factor in a great pool scene that steps down<br />

to the shore and it’s easy to see why families love this hotel<br />

so much.<br />

Couples, meanwhile, are enticed by the setting.<br />

Surrounded by wheat and poppy fields, the El Greco fronts<br />

its own Blue Flag beach. Between the beach and the sun<br />

terraces, there’s plenty of room to spread out and enjoy<br />

views of the Med and the snow-capped Lefka Ori<br />

mountains - views that regularly turn into vibrant reds and<br />

golds at sundown. In fact, the hotel reckons it enjoys the<br />

best sunsets on the island.<br />

Inside, the hotel has brought the outside in - a huge circular<br />

fresco of the sky adorns the ceiling in the marble lobby.<br />

In the bedrooms, marble bathrooms, tiled floors and<br />

sunshine yellows create a welcoming space.<br />

On the dining front you can expect a choice of restaurants<br />

featuring show-cooking and organic salads fresh from<br />

Grecotel’s own farms.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Essence of Sani<br />

Dining<br />

With 16 restaurants to choose from, good<br />

food and Sani Resort go hand in hand.<br />

Ranging from authentic Greek tavernas to<br />

Italian trattorias, the eateries here are a<br />

big hit with the food critics – some have<br />

even made it onto the Financial Times’<br />

Top 25 Restaurants in Europe list.<br />

Location<br />

With the pine-stitched fields behind and<br />

the sea in front, Sani Resort’s peninsula<br />

setting is certainly easy on the eye.<br />

Cue crystal seas, golden sands and acres<br />

of untouched countryside. Plus, it even<br />

has its own private yacht marina.<br />

Luxury<br />

Design-led interiors and first-class<br />

service come as standard at Sani Resort.<br />

It’s a family complex that doesn’t<br />

compromise on style. Cue UK Ofstedinspected<br />

miniclubs, two state-of-the-art<br />

spas and a marina packed with shops,<br />

cafes and galleries. What’s more, it has<br />

a summer programme of music and<br />

gourmet food festivals.<br />

Sani Beach Hotel Spa<br />

Sani Beach Resort<br />

It might be a cliché but Sani Resort is the kind of place that appeals to<br />

everyone. It’s stylish but not so exclusive that it feels unfriendly. It’s romantic<br />

without being over the top. And it’s geared towards grown-ups but doesn’t<br />

skimp on family fun. <strong>The</strong>ir motto is ‘Happy children, happy parents, happy<br />

holidays.’ So it’s safe to say they aim to please. <strong>The</strong> resort nestles in a<br />

thousand-acre nature reserve on the western shores of Kassandra Peninsula.<br />

And inside the grounds, you’ll find a medley of Blue Flag beaches,<br />

restaurants and shops, and a marina to rival Marbella’s. Not to mention four<br />

stylish hotels.<br />

Bringing together the freshest local products and top-notch ingredients from<br />

around the globe, Sani Resort does fine dining with style. While the hotels<br />

specialise in authentic Greek cuisine, they’ve got plenty in the way of à la<br />

cartes, too. Plus there are even more restaurants down at the marina.<br />

Cue Italian trattorias and traditional tavernas. And the fact they’ve won<br />

Greek gourmet awards and the seal of approval from the Financial Times is<br />

testament to the fact they go all out to impress. To help half board guests<br />

make the most of these prize-winning restaurants, Sani even offers a<br />

Dine Around Plan. It means you can eat from set menus at specially<br />

chosen à la cartes. Or you can choose from the restaurants’ full menus,<br />

and they’ll give you an allowance to put towards it.<br />

Awarded to the Sani Beach Club<br />

Hotels that lead the way in environmental<br />

and social responsibility, conserving<br />

resources while caring for employees<br />

and the community.<br />

Grecotel Kos Imperial Thalasso ttttt<br />

“Style and substance create a luxurious partnership in this water wonderland.”<br />

Water plays an important role at this hotel. It’s the first<br />

thing that hits you. Not only is it right on the sea front, but<br />

the hotel’s star-shaped main building and bungalows are<br />

linked by pools, and waterways. Three big lagoon pools<br />

spread out among the sun terraces, and a lazy river,<br />

waterfalls and some imaginative water features complete<br />

the scene.<br />

But there’s lots more to catch your attention. Take the lobby<br />

and lounge, for instance. All gleaming marble and ornate<br />

armchairs, it’s the epitome of luxury. <strong>The</strong> attention to detail<br />

continues in the bedrooms - their biscuit and blue scheme<br />

has something vaguely Victoriana about them.<br />

As the name of the hotel suggests, the spa is all-important<br />

here - expect a Thalasso-therapy pool, sauna and steam<br />

bath, not to mention a host of soothing treatments.<br />

“On the beach. Thirteen swimming pools. Bags of activities. And with even more besides, the Atlantica<br />

Portobello Royal Hotel ticks all the boxes on your holiday wishlist.”<br />

If you’re seeking somewhere that screams stylish, swanky and<br />

chic, it has to be the Atlantica Portobello Royal. This<br />

cosmopolitan hotel is in a class of its own. We’re talking grand<br />

archways. To-die-for décor. And a service that’s second<br />

Mediterranean-design hotel sits in a beautiful spot. It’s just a<br />

stone’s throw from the private beach - a gorgeous gold-dust<br />

slice of sands that melts into sapphire-blue seas.<br />

Once you clap eyes on the pools though, you’ll probably want<br />

to stay put. And when we say pools, we mean pools. <strong>The</strong>re are<br />

twelve stunners to choose from - thirteen if you count the<br />

elegant indoor one. Sprinkled around the hotel’s grounds,<br />

most of the luxurious rooms open out onto one of the pools.<br />

Step inside your room and it’s just as swish. Decorated in<br />

warm terracotta colours with touches of vanilla and peach,<br />

these spacious, sexy doubles wouldn’t look out of place in an<br />

interior design magazine.<br />

Hotel Corfu Chandris tttt<br />

“A beachside retreat backed by sweeping hills, the Corfu Chandris enjoys a picture-perfect setting.”<br />

Sitting pretty in Dassia Bay, surrounded by olive-covered<br />

slopes, the Corfu Chandris couldn’t be better placed.<br />

<strong>The</strong> views are stunning. Factor in landscaped gardens, a<br />

stretch of private beach and two pools and you’ve got a<br />

hotel that’s geared up for relaxation.<br />

It’s all equally handsome when you step inside.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s almost a luxury liner feel to the plush lobby with<br />

its potted palms, wrought-iron lanterns and smart club<br />

armchairs. <strong>The</strong> long curved bar adds to the nautical feel.<br />

<strong>The</strong>n there’s the food to consider. Overlooking the lagoon is<br />

the main Alkinoos restaurant. Satisfying buffets filled with<br />

tasty international and Mediterranean fare are the order of<br />

the day here. And in the evenings, there’s also a smart à la<br />

carte restaurant. But for something typically Greek, it’s hard<br />

to beat the open-sided beachside taverna, with its checked<br />

tablecloths and striped awnings. It’s an airy but shaded<br />

setting for delicious local specialities.<br />

Finally, families will feel very much at home at the<br />

Corfu Chandris. <strong>The</strong>re’s a club for 4 to 12-year-olds and the<br />

hotel lays on a buffet specially geared to smaller appetites.<br />

Grecotel Eva Palace ttttt<br />

“With timeless looks, understated luxury and a beachside spot, the Eva Palace is in a class of its own.”<br />

If romance is on the cards, there’s no better place to whisk your<br />

loved one than the Eva Palace. Sitting on the Kommeno<br />

Peninsula, it looks like a royal’s summer palace. Painted in soft<br />

creams with grand arches and touches of Moorish architecture,<br />

it could easily have fallen from pages of a fairytale book.<br />

Albeit a very chic one. It’s the same story throughout this<br />

sumptuous hotel. Cue sleek floors, elegant sofas and<br />

Moroccan-style lighting. Nothing is overdone, though. <strong>The</strong> cream<br />

décor, wood furnishings and neutral muted tones keep<br />

everything classy. And it’s like this wherever you go. Take the<br />

two restaurants. Enjoy Mediterranean-inspired cuisine at the<br />

gourmet Il Melograno restaurant, which sits on a terrace at the<br />

far end of the pool. It’s dressed up dining at its best. Or sink<br />

into one of the plump wicker chairs at the Terrazo Garden.<br />

With a wrap around al fresco terrace and views to die for, buffet<br />

restaurants don’t come any more elegant than this.<br />

We’ve not even got to the best bit yet, the setting. Not only<br />

does it sit in one of the most romantic spots along the Ionian<br />

coast, it’s right by the beach. Just follow one of the paths<br />

through the gardens and you’ll wind up on a pretty sand and<br />

shingle cove, backed by olive groves. Of course, you could just<br />

stay by the lake-sized pool complete with a swim-up bar<br />

designed like a Greek temple. Sunk into a roomy sun terrace, it’s<br />

flanked by sun loungers, landscaped lawns and a restaurant.<br />

Or maybe you’ll go for some of the all-inclusive sports like<br />

tennis and watersports. <strong>The</strong>re’s an Elixir rooftop fitness gallery<br />

with a gym and sauna, too. And you’ll find plenty of low-key<br />

activities on offer like dance lessons, cocktail courses and wine<br />

tasting. However you spend your time at this intimate five star<br />

retreat, one thing’s guaranteed. Even if you don’t come here to<br />

fall in love, you’ll certainly fall in love with the Eva Palace itself.<br />

Splendid Spa Resort ttttt<br />

<strong>The</strong> name of this hotel says it all - the spa is indeed splendid,<br />

in fact, it’s one of the biggest in Europe. It comes with a<br />

staggering 45 different types of massages, 3 types of sauna,<br />

experience showers - even a steam temple.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hotel itself rises up from landscaped gardens and a chic<br />

palm-dotted pool area. What’s more, it’s right on its own<br />

private beach. And although it’s just a stone’s throw from the<br />

resort of Becici, you’re more likely to hear the gentle purr of a<br />

passing boat than the sounds of a busy town.<br />

Up in the bedrooms plush is most certainly the watchword -<br />

they’re all gold-coloured décor, luxurious linens, and spacious<br />

marble bathrooms. Plus you’ve got power showers and huge<br />

flatscreen TVs with high-speed internet access.<br />

edge of Becici • 200m to bus-stop on main road for regular<br />

services to Budva, 18km away • Promenade between hotel and<br />

Bed & Breakfast Code DUR<br />

Standard, Sea View / 2 Adults<br />

Hotel Dubrovnik Palace ttttt<br />

“This ultra-contemporary hotel offers a luxurious experience not to be missed.”<br />

Sleek, modern and minimalist, this hotel can hold its head up high<br />

in any 5 star company. Carved into the rocks right on the water’s<br />

edge on Lapad peninsula, it offers up fantastic views of the Adriatic.<br />

<strong>The</strong> bedrooms are quiet, stylish havens decked out in chocolate and<br />

cream tones. And they come with complementary bathrobes and<br />

slippers, power showers, and televisions with internet access.<br />

Dining here is quite an experience. Alongside the Elafiti buffet<br />

restaurant and the very upmarket Luna restaurant, you’ve got the<br />

incredibly chic Sushi eatery. High up on the tenth floor, it comes<br />

with a side-order of jaw-dropping views.<br />

Talking of which, swimming is a must at the Dubrovnik Palace.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are three outdoor pools, with a swim-up bar at the main one,<br />

and a smart indoor pool up on the top floor. Although there’s no<br />

sandy beach, there’s swimming to be had from the stone terraces<br />

down at the water’s edge.<br />

Evenings take on a magic of their own at this hotel. Live jazz in the<br />

nightclub, tinkling ivories in the piano bar, or maybe a cocktail while<br />

you watch the sun set - the choice is yours.<br />

Helena Sands<br />

Half Board Code HES<br />

Standard / 2 Adults<br />

Helena Sands ttttt<br />

Built to mirror traditional Bulgarian architecture, this hotel is all<br />

red-tiled roofs cascading down to Sunny Beach’s sands.<br />

More by way of striking design lies within. Take the lobby.<br />

Awash with gleaming marble and espresso-leather armchairs, it’s<br />

finished with oyster-pink drapes and a grandfather clock.<br />

Even grander is the staircase that sweeps to the upper floors<br />

under elaborate chandeliers. <strong>The</strong> bedrooms, meanwhile, show a<br />

lighter touch. All peaches-and-cream elegance, they’re dressed with<br />

dainty off-white furniture and sofas.<br />

<strong>The</strong> pool, meanwhile, is set in to wide sun terraces. It’s home to a<br />

fancy metal pergola that morphs into an illuminated water feature<br />

by night.<br />

<strong>The</strong> facilities here are impressive too. <strong>The</strong>re’s a wellness centre,<br />

tennis and beach volleyball on offer. And you’re welcome to use<br />

selected facilities at the Helena’s sister hotel, the Helena Park - just<br />

cross over the creek that trickles between them.<br />

<strong>The</strong> last word though has to go to the location. <strong>The</strong> Helena has<br />

grabbed what is probably one of the best spots in Sunny Beach.<br />

It’s at the quieter end of the resort, facing the beach. And on a<br />

more practical note, the town centre is also within easy striking<br />

distance - just a 15-minute or so stroll away.<br />

Location • On the beach • At the quieter end of the resort<br />

• 1.5 km to resort centre • Nearest town is Nessebar,<br />

Pool area • Swimming pool • Sunbeds, towels and parasols along<br />

the sun terrace • Large, well-tended gardens • Sunbeds on the<br />

You know you’re in for something special the moment you arrive.<br />

<strong>The</strong> cutting-edge lobby is all glass and marble, with indoor palm<br />

trees stretching up to the tall ceiling. Glass-fronted elevators glide<br />

effortlessly between floors, and big airy lounges offer space to relax.<br />

Step outside, though, and the vibe suddenly switches from<br />

cosmopolitan cool to the Caribbean. An oasis of palms surrounds a<br />

spectacular swimming pool complex that weaves its way around<br />

islands and under little bridges. Taking centre-stage is a thatchedroof<br />

pool bar, almost completely surrounded by water.<br />

<strong>The</strong> real show-stopper is a 100-metre long beach that merges into<br />

the pool. Man-made, granted, but what a finishing touch. For the<br />

real McCoy, Maspalomas’ famous sand dunes are a15 minute walk<br />

away. Back inside, the bedrooms are bright and welcoming, with<br />

yellow washed walls and drapes contrasting prettily with the warm<br />

wicker furniture. Dining in the immense restaurant is another treat.<br />

Taking pride of place is the show-cooking stand, where chefs sizzle<br />

up steaks to perfection. Although these are big hotels, the complex<br />

has been ingeniously designed within a virtual forest of palms and<br />

tropical gardens to offer more secluded nooks. Explore and you’ll<br />

find a giant chess set, a crazy golf course, and an adventure<br />

playground for the kids.<br />

This hotel is currently called Hotel Maspalomas/Tabaiba Princess.<br />

From Summer 2010 it will be called the Hotel Maspalomas Princess.<br />

Location • 700m to shops and amenities • 1.5km to Maspalomas<br />

sand dunes • 3km to the busy centre of Playa del Inglés, with<br />

plenty of shops, bars, restaurants and nightlife<br />

Hotel Natura Palace ttttp<br />

Perched in a quiet spot on the sea front, this hotel is far enough<br />

away to give you that feeling of escape - but close enough to be<br />

able to re-acquaint yourself with the rest of the world whenever<br />

you fancy. It’s right beside the wide seafront promenade that leads<br />

to the centre of Playa Blanca, passing beach and harbour along<br />

the way. It’s a 30 to 45-minute walk but you can always get a bus or<br />

taxi back.<br />

Inside, the lobby - with its shining marble floor, indoor palms and<br />

floor-to-ceiling glass walls - sets a scene of contemporary chic.<br />

From there, it’s straight ahead to the yawning sun terrace and<br />

swimming pools which serve up grandstand ocean views wherever<br />

you sit. A whirlpool adds a touch of glamour, and there’s a bar to<br />

keep you topped up with drinks.<br />

<strong>The</strong> bedrooms, meanwhile, are modern and minimalist with extras<br />

like minibars, satellite TVs and bathrobes. If you’re in need of a little<br />

extra pampering, the spa deserves a special mention.<br />

Mud treatments, muscle-melting massages and a sauna are some<br />

of the indulgences on offer.<br />

<strong>The</strong>n there’s the food to consider. <strong>The</strong> hotel’s restaurant serves up<br />

buffets with show-cooking on the side so you can have your<br />

morning eggs made to order. In the evenings, the freshly caught fish<br />

is a real talking point.<br />

Hotel La Palma Princess & Spa ttttt<br />

“11 swimming pools. To-die-for sea views. And stylish bedrooms. La Palma Princess really is<br />

a little bit special.”<br />

At La Palma Princess it’s all about the pool. And it’s not just<br />

one pool either. We’re talking eleven pools in all their glittering<br />

turquoise glory. Two of which are heated. Interlinked and<br />

criss-crossed with bridges, they wind their way across the sun<br />

terrace and past the pool bar. What’s more, they’re poised on<br />

the seafront and, from some angles, look as though they’re<br />

floating on the ocean - which means, no matter where you<br />

choose to sit, you get fantastic views out to sea. If you can bear<br />

to drag yourself away from the poolside, there are plenty of<br />

other ways to fill your time here. Work out in the gym.<br />

Practise your serve on the tennis court. Or make like Robin<br />

Hood and try your hand at archery. One thing’s for sure, with all<br />

the activities and entertainment at this modern hotel, you<br />

won’t have time to be bored. But if your idea of holiday heaven<br />

is hour after blissful hour of relaxation, head for the spa<br />

instead. Unwind with a full body massage. Bubble away your<br />

troubles in the whirlpool bath. When you’re pampered, preened<br />

and ready to face the world again, make a beeline for the bar.<br />

Order yourself a fruity cocktail, sit back and indulge in a spot of<br />

people watching. This is most definitely the life.<br />

Hotel Fuerteventura Princess ttttt<br />

“Deserving of its regal title, this beachfront senorita combines a peaceful setting with a great pool<br />

scene - and lashings of style for good measure.”<br />

Sun, sea and sand are in no short supply here. Set in a<br />

peaceful spot, right on the edge of Esquinzo de Jandia<br />

beach, this Princess holds court over a giant stretch of soft<br />

white sand, edged by turquoise waters. <strong>The</strong> complex has<br />

classic Spanish good looks - whitewashed balconies, cutesy<br />

chimney stacks and terracotta rooftops. And it’s all laid out<br />

like a village, with rooms spread out among tropical gardens.<br />

Four good-sized pools, surrounded by palms, give the beach<br />

a run for its money. Tempting you away from your sunbed<br />

for a cocktail is the Coco Loco bar, set on an island in the<br />

main pool. <strong>The</strong>re’s even a separate secluded pool with its<br />

own sunbathing area specially for those who like to tan<br />

all over. Step through the huge sliding glass doors,<br />

meanwhile, and you’ll find yourself in a cavernous - almost<br />

church-like - lobby. <strong>The</strong>re’s a distinctly regal feel to the<br />

bedrooms, too. <strong>The</strong>y’re spacious and decked out in elegant<br />

in shades of pale gold and deep pink and come with sofas.<br />

When it comes to dining, the buffet restaurant serves up<br />

everything from pasta and salads to Canarian specialities.<br />

Plus there’s a show cooking station where you can have<br />

your steak sizzled just the way you like it.<br />

Last but not least, the remoteness of the Fuerteventura<br />

Princess is one of its key attractions - it’s got the real<br />

escape factor. Having said that, just eight kilometres away is<br />

the little town of Jandia , with its shops, bars and<br />

restaurants and lively Thursday market.<br />

Hotel Riu Palace Tenerife ttttt<br />

“With its plum sea-and-mountain setting, this hotel showcases Tenerife at its best.”<br />

Views don’t come much better than this. To the rear, the hotel<br />

is backed by brooding volcanic slopes. To the front, grandstand<br />

views of the Atlantic Ocean stretch as far as the eye can see.<br />

Sitting pretty between the two are lush gardens, dotted with<br />

bright sub-tropical plants. Here, you’ll also find sun terraces<br />

surrounding two swimming pools. And a bar and restaurant<br />

with waiter service ensure chilled drinks and snacks are never<br />

far away. It’s just a step further to an exclusive little sand<br />

terrace down by the waters edge, complete with its own sun<br />

beds and a bar. For sand on a grander scale, Playa del Duque<br />

beach is just 350 metres away.<br />

<strong>The</strong> pleasure trip continues when it comes to dining.<br />

Buffet and waiter service are both available in the main<br />

restaurant at dinner with roasts and salads, steaks and fish the<br />

order of the day.<br />

As to the hotel itself, its curved design means lots of the rooms<br />

look out to sea. <strong>The</strong> interiors are reminiscent of a luxury liner -<br />

all palatial sweeps, polished wood and gleaming marble. <strong>The</strong><br />

bedrooms have got a classic feel with carved wooden<br />

headboards and tie-back drapes.<br />

As for location, a 20-minute stroll takes you to chic little Adeje,<br />

with its smart boutiques and bars. <strong>The</strong> promenade runs right in<br />

front of the hotel, so it couldn’t be handier.<br />

Location • 300m to beach • 3km to resort centre • 200m to<br />

nearest shop & bar<br />

Hotel Guayarmina Princess tttt<br />

“Looking for an all-singing, all-dancing hotel in a sunshine hotspot? <strong>The</strong>n call off the search. With a<br />

lagoon-like pool, a great seaside location and bags of style, this place takes some beating.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> design. <strong>The</strong> décor. <strong>The</strong> setting. <strong>The</strong> service. Everything<br />

about this place is spot on. Take the location, for instance.<br />

Set on the coast in upmarket Costa Adeje, the hotel overlooks<br />

the sea and offers up some pretty breathtaking views of the<br />

ocean. Plus it’s just a couple of minutes’ stroll from a soft<br />

sandy beach, making it a sun worshipper’s dream. But it’s not<br />

just the setting that makes it stand out from the crowd - the<br />

hotel itself is an absolute knockout. All pillars and porticoes,<br />

the atrium resembles a majestic Roman temple. Surrounded<br />

by gently swaying palms, this eye-popping centrepiece<br />

overlooks an enormous swimming pool criss-crossed with little<br />

bridges. Inside, it’s just as spectacular. We’re talking marble<br />

floors, indoor palm trees and cathedral-like ceilings. Likewise,<br />

the bedrooms are decked out in bright and airy colours which<br />

put you firmly in the holiday mood. As to facilities, you<br />

couldn’t ask for more. <strong>The</strong>re’s tennis. <strong>The</strong>re’s squash. <strong>The</strong>re’s<br />

even rifle shooting. <strong>The</strong> Guayarmina Princess pulls out all the<br />

stops when it comes to mealtimes. From show cooking to<br />

sumptuous buffets there are plenty of tasty dishes to choose<br />

from. And there’s a fortnightly Canarian or South American<br />

dinner, too. It’s fair to say that when it comes to glam holidays<br />

in Tenerife, the Guayarmina Princess takes some beating.<br />

Hotel Bahia Princess ttttt<br />

“If you’re seeking place where relaxation and luxury go hand-in-hand, the Bahia Princess is a holiday<br />

treat and a half.”<br />

A holiday hideaway, yet close to all the action of lively Playa de<br />

las Americas, the Bahia Princess is a real beauty spot.<br />

Standing like a palace with its grand staircase entrance and<br />

elegant pillars, this gorgeous hotel is cool, contemporary and<br />

oh-so chic. Yet for all its star-quality good looks, you’ll find a<br />

refreshing carefree atmosphere with no airs and graces - so<br />

you can simply kick back and relax. Owned by the wellrespected<br />

Princess Hotel Group, the staff here certainly know<br />

what good holidays are made of whether they’re welcoming<br />

you, entertaining you or serving you a slap-up meal. So sit<br />

back, slow the pace right down, and enjoy. For starters, there’s<br />

oodles of space at this restful retreat. <strong>The</strong> pretty grounds here<br />

are split over three levels with 3 adult pools situated on 2<br />

of the levels, one pool acclimatised in winter. All flanked by<br />

sprawling terraces with sky-blue sunbeds and parasols, it really<br />

is a decisions, decisions dilemma here when it comes to<br />

sunbathing and swimming. If all that lying about isn’t your<br />

style though, there’s table tennis, billiards and table football,<br />

and you can also enjoy all the facilities at the nearby<br />

Guayarmina Princess with tennis, squash and a sauna.<br />

However if you work up an appetite, the delicious cuisine here<br />

is certainly food for thought. A mouth-watering range of<br />

tempting cuisine is served in the stunning restaurant, with<br />

speciality show cooking, and a choice of two main courses<br />

at dinner. And after a leisurely evening meal, settle back and<br />

be wowed by a professional show or live music, or chill out on<br />

the piano bar terrace as the ivories tinkle. However you enjoy<br />

your break here, the Bahia Princess knows what makes for a<br />

great holiday.<br />

ClubHotel Riu Karamboa tttt<br />

All Inclusive<br />

“Rising up from the beach like a sand sculpture, this hotel offers the ultimate away-from-it-all holiday.”<br />

This hotel looks like a desert oasis. As such, it’s completely at<br />

one with its surroundings. It sits right on the sandy beach of<br />

Praia de Salines, fringed by dunes and the Atlantic. Whichever<br />

way you look, all you see are sands stretching to the far horizon.<br />

<strong>The</strong> architecture is pitched somewhere between Moorish,<br />

African and Portuguese. But the intricate turrets, archways and<br />

parapets actually belie the hotel’s size. It’s huge - seriously<br />

huge - and set in enormous sandy grounds to match. For all its<br />

grandeur though, it’s the pool that gets top billing. This vast<br />

lagoon is sunk into sweeping terraces topped with sunbeds,<br />

thatched parasols and palms. Not to mention part-submerged<br />

sunloungers and a swim-up bar. Pulled up alongside is La<br />

Dunas restaurant where African cuisine is the order of the day.<br />

<strong>The</strong> à la carte portfolio also takes in Cape Verdian and Asian<br />

eateries, too. Should you want to up the tempo a bit, you’ve got<br />

the usual layercake of activities - tennis, beach volleyball, an<br />

independent scuba school - they’re all here. <strong>The</strong> spa is worth a<br />

mention, too. It’s a desert-camp affair offering massages and<br />

body wraps. As for the bedrooms, they come from the African<br />

design school, with lacquered cabinets, wicker armchairs and<br />

colonial-style ceiling fans.<br />

ClubHotel Riu Garopa tttt<br />

All Inclusive<br />

“All turrets and towers, the stylish Garopa has a great location, right by a powder-soft beach.”<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s something a bit Star Wars about this hotel. With its<br />

sandstone colourings, it’s reminiscent of Luke Skywalker’s<br />

rock home. Step inside though, and the desert-rock look<br />

switches to full-on North African. Take the lobby. <strong>The</strong>re are giant<br />

wooden columns on grand pedestals. Enormous tusk-shaped<br />

sculptures. And dark-wicker sofas and clay urns as finishing<br />

touches. It’s a similar story in the buffet restaurant where bold<br />

mosaics adorn the walls and kasbah-style lanterns hang above.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s a distinct African note to the rooms, too. Add in airconditioning<br />

and balconies or terraces, and they hit the mark.<br />

Everything is rather smart outside, too. <strong>The</strong> hotel opens on to a<br />

terrace dotted with palms, sunloungers and parasols. Nestled in<br />

the middle is the huge lagoon pool, crowned by a swim-up bar<br />

under a dramatic Sydney Opera <strong>House</strong>-esque roof. It doubles<br />

as the Mambana restaurant - you can try exotic African curries<br />

here in the evening. Beyond all this, you’ve got the beach.<br />

A sweep of powdery sands, it features a bar and sunloungers.<br />

You can walk along the sands to Santa Maria - it’s just over one<br />

kilometre away. One last thing. <strong>The</strong> hotel sits right by its sister,<br />

the Riu Funana, which means you can use many of its facilities.<br />

Location • On the beach • 1.5km from Santa Maria centre<br />

Hotel Riu Palace Aruba ttttt<br />

All Inclusive<br />

“Palace by name, palace by nature. This recent addition to the RIU range certainly lives up to<br />

its regal title.”<br />

All domes, pinnacles and grand architectural flourishes, there’s<br />

something almost British Raj about this hotel - you half expect<br />

a maharaja to hold court here. In fact, everything about it errs<br />

towards elegance. Take the wood-panelled piano bar.<br />

Reminiscent of a private gentlemen’s club, you can imagine Noel<br />

Coward tinkling the ivories in here. Likewise, the bedrooms are<br />

the epitome of good taste. Think dark wood furnishings and a<br />

neutral palette that’s easy on the eye. <strong>The</strong>y’re spacious, too, and<br />

the junior suites come with integrated lounge areas.<br />

<strong>The</strong> pool scene’s rather impressive, as well. Stand out features<br />

include sunbeds part-submerged in the water and a pagoda-like<br />

swim-up bar. Not to mention fountains and an extensive sun<br />

terrace dotted with sleek linen parasols.<br />

On the food front, you’re spoilt for choice. All Inclusive buffets<br />

come courtesy of the main restaurant - a Titanic-looking dining<br />

room replete with chandeliers. For a taste of the Far East, make<br />

a reservation at Sayuri. With black latticed chairs, this Japanese<br />

eatery certainly looks the part. Likewise Krystal. With its striking<br />

Picasso-esque wall space, it’s the perfect setting for the latest in<br />

fusion cuisine. Rounding off the à la carte line-up you’ve got a<br />

steakhouse and an Italian trattoria.<br />

As for relaxation and entertainment, treat yourself to a massage<br />

in the Vita Novus Spa, sign up for a game of beach volleyball or<br />

enjoy a beer or two in the American-style sports bar. <strong>The</strong>re’s<br />

even a casino here.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Riu Palace’s pièce de résistance, however, has to be its<br />

location. Pulled right up against Palm Beach, it gazes out across<br />

the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. And the wide sweep<br />

of soft white sand virtually at its front door means the beach is<br />

yours for the taking.<br />

ClubHotel Riu Negril ttttp<br />

All Inclusive<br />

“Surrounded by sea and jungle - this smart All Inclusive has arguably one of the most impressive<br />

locations in the <strong>Platinum</strong> Collection”.<br />

Curving its way around a strip of white sand, the ClubHotel Riu<br />

Negril peeps out from a lush, jungle-like forest. Set on its own<br />

peninsula overlooking Bloody Bay, it feels like a castaway<br />

paradise. And the turquoise lagoon-like sea is perfect for the<br />

wide range of watersports available here.<br />

Cast your eye over the hotel’s wide, white buildings, and the<br />

Caribbean fantasy continues. Grabbing centre-stage are two<br />

sparkling swimming pools, one with a swim-up bar beneath the<br />

shade of a sun terrace.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s more than a touch of Colonial elegance about this place.<br />

A huge, airy reception lobby and bar - filled with comfortable<br />

cushioned wicker armchairs - makes a tranquil space to take in<br />

the plush surroundings. Rich, dark-wood furniture and deep<br />

apricot covers create a warm backdrop in bedrooms that come<br />

with extras like RIU’s renowned minibar - not that there’s<br />

anything ‘mini’ about it - and liquor dispenser.<br />

When it comes to activities, you’ve got lots to choose from.<br />

As well as a fitness centre and tennis courts, you can get in to<br />

water polo, sailing and windsurfing. Or sign up for a scuba diving<br />

trial in the pool. If you’ve brought the kids along, there’s a<br />

hotel-run club and a playground, as well as their own pool to<br />

splash about in.<br />

Factor in a soothing spa and dining choices on a grand scale -<br />

from Mexican nights to sizzling steaks cooked before your eyes -<br />

and the Riu Negril has got luxury all sewn up.<br />

Paradisus Rio de Oro Resort ttttt<br />

some beating.”<br />

TripAdvisor seriously rates the Paradisus Rio de Oro. Not only did it<br />

win the ‘Best for Romance’ award in their 2008 <strong>Travel</strong>lers’ Choice<br />

Awards but it’s been voted the best hotel in Guardalavaca, too.<br />

And when you cast your eye over this 5-star, adults-only hotel,<br />

you’ll see why. For a start, it’s spread out next to the white sands of<br />

Playa Esmeralda beach, and overlooks a beautiful coral reef. <strong>The</strong>n<br />

there’s its impressive list of facilities. Two huge pools wrap around<br />

terraces and curve up to a big swim-up bar. Add plenty of sunbeds<br />

and pergolas and you’ll find it hard to tear yourself away. Next,<br />

you’ve got six restaurants and five bars vying for your attention.<br />

Four of the restaurants are à la carte and serve everything from<br />

Japanese to Creole cuisine. And as for the bars, they come in all<br />

guises - but it’s the karaoke-come-disco bar that’s the liveliest. This<br />

place doesn’t fall short on looks, either. Statues, water features and<br />

bold artwork adorn the lobby areas, while the bedrooms are a<br />

touch calmer - roomy, light spaces with big windows and doors that<br />

lead to a balcony or terrace.<br />

Gran Bahia Principe Cayo Levantado<br />

Nights<br />

All Inclusive<br />

Standard / 2 Adults<br />

Code BCL 7<br />

You may well do a double-take when you arrive on Cayo Levantado.<br />

Dubbed Bacardi Island, this tiny green isle once starred in one of<br />

the drink’s adverts. And it’s no wonder. With its coconut-white<br />

sands, turquoise-blue seas and nodding palm trees, it’s paradise.<br />

<strong>The</strong> setting is romantic beyond belief, and you can only get here<br />

by boat. Don’t worry, you’re not totally cut off, there are free<br />

shuttles a day back to the mainland, subject to availability. Though<br />

once you set eyes on the place it’s likely you’ll want to stay put.<br />

When you’re not sinking your toes into the sand, you’ve got two<br />

luxurious pools to pick from, flanked by comfy wicker sun loungers.<br />

And there’s also an external whirlpool bath and pool bar on hand.<br />

It’s not all about lounging here, though. <strong>The</strong>re’s an impressive list of<br />

activities and a state-of-the-art gym, too. You’ll also find plenty to<br />

keep you occupied in the water with windsurfing, sailing and<br />

kayaking just some of the offerings. And for romantic walks à deux,<br />

simply follow the sands and do a circular tour of the beaches.<br />

As for the actual hotel… from the sophisticated lobby to the<br />

sumptuous Moorish-style spa, it’s more like a roomy mansion.<br />

It’s the same story throughout the rest of the hotel. <strong>The</strong> bedrooms<br />

are big and stylish with a lounge area and gadgets like a whirlpool<br />

bath or shower. And the four restaurants, one of which has gourmet<br />

specialities on the menu, make the most of the island scenery.<br />

If you’re looking for somewhere you can get starry-eyed and spoilt,<br />

let us whisk you away to this paradise isle. We couldn’t think of a<br />

better place to get marooned.<br />

Riu Palace Macao ttttt<br />

“Palm gardens and a beachfront setting make this hotel a customer favourite.”<br />

Palace by name and palatial by nature, the Riu Palace Macao<br />

brings a touch of colonial grandeur to the <strong>Platinum</strong> collection by<br />

way of elegant white turrets and balustrades. On the inside,<br />

meanwhile, dark-wood panelling, chandeliers and marble add a<br />

gracenote of Victoriana.<br />

Room-wise, expect more of the same. Decorated in a timeless<br />

combination of cream and gold, they’re a taste of old England.<br />

Think carved dark-wood furniture, chintzy curtains and elegant<br />

wing chairs. And bringing things into the 21st century are<br />

mod-cons like satellite TVs and RIU’s spirit dispensers.<br />

Outside, the cruciform pool takes centre-stage in the<br />

hotel gardens. Dotted with fountains and statues of mermaids,<br />

it’s framed by a spacious sun terrace. Palm trees, white canvas<br />

parasols and sun loungers complete the picture. And it all sits<br />

on the edge of Bavaro’s long white sandy beach.<br />

As for restaurants, the hotel’s got a great selection. <strong>The</strong>re’s an<br />

international buffet, a Japanese, a steakhouse, an Italian and a<br />

fusion food restaurant. What’s more, there are as many bars as<br />

there are restaurants, plus entertainment on tap at the casino<br />

and Copacabana amphitheatre.<br />

Dreams Punta Cana Resort & Spa ttttp<br />

wrapped around a winding, lagoon-style swimming pool with<br />

own pool and club, while at night, the sports bar turns into a teen<br />

disco. In terms of things to do, there’s plenty of choice. <strong>The</strong>re’s a<br />

state-of-the-art fitness centre, sports and watersports. And they’ve<br />

got Spanish and dancing lessons, too. Add spacious rooms dressed<br />

Majestic Colonial Punta Cana ttttt<br />

<strong>The</strong> Majestic Colonial is grand. Take the lobby for example. It’s split<br />

over two gleaming marble floors, with a sweeping staircase linking<br />

the levels. Vaulted ceiling and chandeliers give a nod to the Spanish<br />

colonial era. <strong>The</strong>n consider the bedrooms. Marble floors, a whirlpool<br />

bath and a large walk-in shower are the first things you’ll notice. Inroom<br />

extras include satellite TVs, bathrobes and slippers. Plus they<br />

all have nice touches like a presence sensor that tells your maid<br />

whether or not you’re in, so there’s no need for a ‘do not disturb’<br />

sign. Plus a special room-service closet means dinner can be served<br />

without you seeing a soul. <strong>The</strong> pool scene is equally impressive.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re’s only one pool here, but it’s so big it feels like there are<br />

more. Snaking through the grounds right down to the beach, each<br />

section has a different atmosphere. <strong>The</strong>re’s an area for activities, a<br />

swim-up bar and two integrated whirlpools for relaxation. On the<br />

food front, you’re spoilt for choice, with seven restaurants tucked<br />

around the grounds, ranging from an open-air steakhouse to an<br />

Oriental eatery. <strong>The</strong> Supreme is the main dining venue, where you’ll<br />

find a bumper buffet menu with on-the-spot cooking stations.<br />

Location • Ocean front resort • About 4 hours’ drive to the<br />

historic city of Santo Domingo • Golf 5 minutes away<br />

Riu Palace Riviera Maya ttttt<br />

“Palatial inside and out, this hotel certainly lives up to its regal name.”<br />

Reminiscent of an Indian Maharajah’s palace, this hotel stops<br />

you in your tracks. It’s all whitewashed domes, grand pinnacles<br />

and elegant porticoes. <strong>The</strong> piece de resistance, however, has to<br />

be the gorgeous beachfront setting. And the wide sun terraces<br />

are worth a mention, too. Fringed by shady palm trees, they<br />

circle the big cruciform pool. And not only is there an adjoining<br />

whirlpool and a swim-up bar, but there are partially submerged<br />

sunbeds in the water. All our guests here stay in plush junior<br />

suites where dark polished wood and pale décor is worked to<br />

great effect. And they come with hydro-massage bath tubs and<br />

living areas with TVs and sofas. Better still, free room service is<br />

included, too. Food-wise, it’s 5-star service all the way. A glass of<br />

sparkling Cava at breakfast to accompany a made-to-order<br />

omelette from the cooking station is a good way to start the<br />

day. Come dinner time there are five speciality restaurants to<br />

choose from. And as with all RIU hotels, the entertainment is<br />

first class, with nightly shows, cabaret and live music.<br />

ClubHotel Riu Tequila tttt<br />

Surrounded by tropical greenery, this hotel has a secluded setting and a great pool scene.<br />

Location, food and décor - the Riu Tequila’s got a lot going for it.<br />

And a recent refurbishment has raised the bar even higher.<br />

Outside, two swimming pools are framed by sun terraces. <strong>The</strong> piece<br />

de resistance is the enormous thatched swim-up bar. If it’s the<br />

beach you’re after, step out through the lush tropical gardens and in<br />

five minutes you’ll be on powdery white sands. But if you want to<br />

skip the stroll and get there even faster, a shuttle service is on hand<br />

to whisk you down. On the food front, big buffet breakfasts get the<br />

day off to a satisfying start. After that, you’re spoilt for choice with<br />

a steakhouse and an Asian restaurant, plus a beach club for<br />

Mexican specials. If all that’s not enough, the Riu Tequila is part of<br />

the Riu Playacar Resort which means you can hop across to the<br />

neighbouring Riu Yucatan and Riu Playacar, too.<br />

• 800m to the beach • Free shuttle available; beach also accessible<br />

Riu Palace Las Americas ttttt<br />

“Set on ice-white sands, this palatial hotel has got it all - looks, luxury and location.”<br />

From the moment you step into the lobby of this gleaming white<br />

hotel you’ll notice plenty in the way of glamour. Outside two broad<br />

swimming pools are designed so that from certain angles they seem<br />

to be floating on the sea. Graceful statues, whirlpool baths and<br />

submerged sun beds add to the air of sophisticated luxury.<br />

Just steps away is a stretch of gently shelving white sands.<br />

You won’t get bowled over by any breakers here - the beach is<br />

protected from waves by a coral reef. It’s a great spot for snorkelling.<br />

Accommodation is in elegant, spacious suites, with dark-wood<br />

furnishings offset by neutral walls and regal red and gold covers<br />

and drapes. And when it comes to dining, the hotel pulls out all<br />

the stops. Five à la carte restaurants, as well as the main buffet<br />

restaurant, ensure plenty of variety.<br />

Riu Cancun tttt<br />

This All-Inclusive resort is in a prime location with Bounty-like beaches on the doorstep.<br />

Big and bold, this pagoda-topped headturner doesn’t do things by<br />

halves. Take its setting. <strong>The</strong> hotel is surrounded by soft sands and<br />

sapphire waters, so you’re only ever seconds from the beach. Plus it<br />

means every room comes with a sea view. Location-wise, you’re in<br />

the centre of all the action - just footsteps from two shopping<br />

centres and a 15-minute walk from Cancun’s buzzing nightlife.<br />

Back at the hotel, the swimming pools steal the show. <strong>The</strong>re are<br />

three in total, snaking their way around the complex. <strong>The</strong>y each<br />

find plenty of sun terraces, with loungers and umbrellas, as well as<br />

tables and chairs for al fresco lunches. Inside, the standards are just<br />

as high. An elegant marble lobby leads to the bedrooms, decked<br />

out in a palette of blues and creams. All the rooms have satellite<br />

TVs, air-conditioning and balconies as standard, not to mention<br />

fully-stocked liquor dispensers. When it comes to dining, you’ve got<br />

plenty of choice thanks to the All Inclusive set-up. <strong>The</strong>re are four<br />

restaurants in total - two buffets and two à la cartes - which serve<br />

up a great range of local and international cuisine.<br />

Grand Riviera Princess Hotel ttttt<br />

<strong>The</strong> Grand Riviera Princess looks more like an exclusive village than<br />

a hotel. Whitewashed buildings topped with thatched roofs are<br />

dotted around pools and gardens - all just footsteps from a<br />

sandy beach. Step inside and you’ll find a nest of junior, junior<br />

deluxe and platinum suites with indulgent extras in the form of<br />

plasma TVs, minibars and air-conditioning. Move outside, and you’ll<br />

find the heart of this place is the main swimming pool. It weaves<br />

through the centre of the village, passing curvy sun terraces with<br />

thatched pergolas and sunbeds. Factor in two more pools with<br />

whirlpool baths right by the beach, and three swim-up bars, and<br />

you’ve got a first-class pool scene. Elsewhere, there’s plenty more<br />

to see and do. For starters, there’s the spa that comes complete<br />

with a sauna and a beauty salon, along with specialist massages<br />

and treatments. And then there’s the entertainment. Live shows are<br />

the order of the day in the evening, while kids and teenagers both<br />

get their own clubs.<br />

Finally, when it comes to deciding where to head for that pre-dinner<br />

cocktail - never mind where to eat - the choice of stylish bars and<br />

restaurants is enormous.<br />

Olhuveli Beach & Spa Resort ttttp<br />

“A beautiful island retreat with superb spa facilities and fabulous food.”<br />

‘Paradise’ is the word you keep hearing from new arrivals to<br />

the Maldives. And as your speedboat pulls up at the jetty and you<br />

clap eyes on this hotel you’ll understand why. Set in a shallow<br />

turquoise lagoon, and fringed with powder white sand, this beautiful<br />

island retreat certainly looks the part. It’s a great way to arrive - a<br />

50-minutes’ ride across turquoise seas from the airport. Even when<br />

it’s full, the Olhuveli Beach & Spa Resort feels uncrowded. <strong>The</strong>re’s a<br />

tranquil, relaxed ambience about the place. Everything is<br />

uncluttered. And it’s helped along by friendly staff whose efficiency<br />

comes with a calm, relaxed courtesy. <strong>The</strong> public areas are modern,<br />

spacious and stylish.<br />

And when it comes to accommodation, there’s a choice of elegantlyfurnished<br />

places to choose from. Deluxe rooms with four-poster<br />

beds are in two-storey blocks hidden among tall palms in the<br />

gardens. Plus you’ve got beach villas and exotic water villas on stilts<br />

to consider as well. Not surprisingly, most of the superb activities<br />

served up here have a watery theme. With an abundance of<br />

multi-hued tropical fish, the snorkelling and diving opportunities are<br />

to-die-for. If you can drag yourself away from the beach, there are<br />

two infinity pools which seem to stretch right out into the lagoon.<br />

It’s the perfect spot to lie back and take in those matchless views of<br />

paradise, Maldives-style. And, if after all that you need any further<br />

pampering, pad along to the spa for an ultimate wind-down<br />

massage. Lastly, there’s the food - quite simply it’s sensational.<br />

Last year, for example, it scored 100% with our customers.<br />

Baobab Beach Resort ttttp<br />

Sitting proudly on the shore of Diani Beach, the Baobab is<br />

surrounded by forest, nodding palms and baobab trees - hence the<br />

name. Decorated in an exotic African-style, the hotel has traditional<br />

touches all over the place, like the Lamu beds in the lobby and<br />

authentic art pieces. When it comes to entertainment, you get<br />

something a little bit different here. Take a walk along the sundappled<br />

paths of Baobab Nature Park, keeping your eyes peeled for<br />

exotic birds and monkeys. Or try your hand at archery, shooting or<br />

windsurfing. <strong>The</strong> evening entertainment is dubbed as the best to be<br />

had in the Mombasa area. <strong>The</strong> jewel in the hotel’s crown, however,<br />

is the Afya Bora Wellness Centre & Spa, with plenty in the way of<br />

massages, beauty therapy, and all manner of wraps and peels.<br />

And there’s a fully-equipped gym, too. Last, but by no means least,<br />

is the food. <strong>The</strong> à la carte Marhaba has a seafood menu to die for,<br />

while the buffet Karibu offers dishes from around the world.<br />

Our Agreement with You, and Yours with Us<br />

OUR AGREEMENT WITH YOU<br />

We are a trading division of TUI UK Limited, Company Number 02830117, having its Registered Office address at TUI <strong>Travel</strong><br />

<strong>House</strong>, Crawley Business Quarter, Fleming Way, Crawley, West Sussex RH10 9QL and Our Agreement with you sets out what you<br />

are legally entitled to expect from us when you buy our travel services. Those travel services are as advertised by us but may also<br />

have restrictions set out in our A-Z Guide which should also be read carefully. Because we sell a wide variety of travel products,<br />

you should read our A-Z Guide & these terms & conditions carefully, before you book, to see how they affect your specific travel<br />

arrangements made by us.<br />

1. Your <strong>Travel</strong> Booking<br />

Whether you book alone or as a group, we will only deal with the lead booking name in all subsequent correspondence, including<br />

changes, amendments & cancellations. You must be 18 years old at the time of booking & possess the legal capacity & authority<br />

to book as the lead name & travel on holidays with us & take up the offers advertised by us if they are still available. You are<br />

responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the personal details or any other information supplied in respect of yourself & any other<br />

person travelling on the booking & for passing on any information regarding the booking or any changes made in relation<br />

thereto, to all persons travelling on such booking, including but not limited to information on schedule changes or copies of<br />

booking confirmations.<br />

In addition, if your holiday includes a flight, you are also responsible for (a) notifying us prior to the time of booking of any<br />

personal circumstances & needs pertaining to a person included in the booking including, without limitation, whether any such<br />

person is not self reliant or is a person with mobility - for example if you, or a member of your party, have difficulty in walking<br />

500 metres; & (b) notifying us at any time from the time of booking until 48 hours prior to the flight’s departure by calling our<br />

call centre if any person travelling on the booking has ceased to be self reliant or a person with reduced mobility or if a person<br />

previously reported to be with reduced mobility or as not being self reliant does no longer fall into either category.<br />

It is a condition of your booking with us that you & all other members of your party, including infants & children, are adequately<br />

insured on holiday. Any person who is under 18 years old must be accompanied by an adult on his or her journey. <strong>The</strong>re may be<br />

other restrictions & conditions on some offers, but these are explained in the details of those offers. When you or (if you are<br />

booking through a travel agent) your travel agent ask for your booking to be confirmed, we will confirm the booking there &<br />

then, & set aside your chosen accommodation, holiday or transport for you. Next, we will send you or your travel agent a<br />

Confirmation Invoice within 14 days. We may not be able to confirm some of our ground arrangements straight away (e.g.<br />

bespoke accommodation, tours etc). In these instances we may issue a Confirmation Invoice. However, a contract for<br />

arrangements that have not been confirmed on that invoice will only be made when we have sent you written confirmation that<br />

those additional arrangements have been completed. If there is any change to any of the details discussed at the time of<br />

booking, before the Confirmation Invoice is issued, we will notify you promptly of any new or changed details, including a change<br />

to the total price (if any). If any detail on the Confirmation Invoice is not correct tell us or your travel agent immediately. If there is<br />

an obvious error on the Confirmation Invoice we reserve the right to correct it as soon as we become aware of it, but we will do<br />

this within 7 days of issuing the Confirmation Invoice or, if your departure is within 7 days, no later than 24 hours before you go.<br />

If any of these changes are not acceptable then you will be entitled to a full refund.<br />

<strong>The</strong> contractual terms of Our Agreement apply between you & us because you have chosen a Package Holiday with us<br />

(hereafter, a “holiday”) which is a ‘package’ within the meaning of <strong>The</strong> Package <strong>Travel</strong>, Package Holidays & Package Tours<br />

Regulations 1992 & will enjoy the benefits conferred by it. Excursions or other tours that you may choose to book or pay for<br />

whilst you are on holiday, whether or not booked through one of our official representatives, are not part of your package holiday<br />

provided by us. We may transfer your booking to another company within our group, but this will have no effect on your holiday<br />

arrangements.<br />

When you buy an ATOL protected air package or flight from us you will receive a confirmation invoice from us (via our authorised<br />

agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements & your protection under our Air <strong>Travel</strong> Organiser's Licence<br />

number 2524. In the unlikely event of our insolvency, the CAA will ensure that you are not stranded abroad & will arrannge to<br />

refund any money you have paid to us for an advance booking. For further information visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk.<br />

<strong>The</strong> price of your holiday includes the amount of £1 per person as part of the ATOL Protection Contribution (APC) we pay to the<br />

CAA. This charge is included in our advertised prices & will be shown separately on your confirmation invoice.<br />

<strong>The</strong> UK government have announced their intention to replace Air Passenger Duty, which is payable by all passengers on flights<br />

departing from UK airports, with a new Emissions Tax, known as Aviation Duty, with effect from 1st November 2009.<br />

At the time of producing this brochure, we are not aware of the final details of the new Duty, & prices have therefore been<br />

calculated as if Air Passenger Duty continues to be in effect. In the event that our costs increase as a result of the change,<br />

we reserve the right to adjust the prices shown in this brochure to reflect those changes in costs.<br />

2. <strong>The</strong> Price You Pay<br />

All prices we advertise are accurate at the date published, but we reserve the right to change any of those prices from time to<br />

time. Prices include a cost for fuel that was estimated at the date of this publication. We reserve the right to add a fuel<br />

supplement to holiday prices should this increase after the date of this publication. Prices can go up or down. We will be able to<br />

tell you or your travel agent the up-to-date price of your chosen travel arrangements & of any other services advertised by us<br />

before confirming your booking.<br />

We reserve the right to increase the price of your holiday after you have booked but no later than 30 days before the departure<br />

date stipulated & will forward an Amendment Invoice reflecting any changes made. After a Confirmation Invoice has been sent to<br />

you, any increase to your holiday price will be as the result of changes in our costs of supplying your holiday resulting from<br />

transportation charges, (fuel, airport charges, scheduled air fares & other transport charges which form part of our contract with<br />

the transport provider), currency fluctuations & government action. An administration charge & any relevant travel agent’s<br />

commission is included within these amounts.<br />

If the increase would be 2% or less of the holiday price shown on your Confirmation Invoice (excluding insurance premiums &<br />

any amendment charges), we will absorb the changes in our costs described above & will only pass on any increase above that<br />

level. If any change in our costs would cause a reduction in your holiday price, we will not make refunds of amounts less than 2%<br />

of your holiday price (calculated as above), but we will refund in full amounts exceeding such 2%, after deducting an<br />

administration charge of £1.<br />

If the increase is more than 10% of the holiday price (calculated as above), then: –<br />

1. You may cancel your holiday booking within 14 days of the Amendment Invoice date & receive a refund of all monies paid to<br />

us except any amendment charges; we will only consider an appropriate refund of insurance premium paid if you can show us<br />

that you are unable to transfer or re-use your policy; &<br />

2. the increase will be considered a Major Change as described in section 4 below &, unless you choose to cancel under<br />

paragraph 1 above, you will be entitled to the alternatives set out in section 4 for those circumstances, but in either case you will<br />

receive compensation in accordance with section 4.<br />

<strong>The</strong> price quoted on the last Amendment Invoice issued is guaranteed, unless you change your holiday booking. Any increases in<br />

our costs which occur after the last Amendment Invoice has been sent will be borne by us. Should you instruct your credit/debit<br />

card company to “charge back” any payment(s) properly due from you in respect of your booking, we will charge you an<br />

administrative fee of £10 per incident & associated costs. We further reserve the right to cancel your booking &/or take legal<br />

action against you for all outstanding payment(s).<br />

3. If we cancel your booking<br />

We aim to provide your holiday as booked. But if, for example, there are not enough people booked on your holiday or you do<br />

not pay the balance of the holiday price on time, we may cancel it. We reserve the right to cancel your holiday in any<br />

circumstances but if we cancel your holiday you can either have a refund or accept a replacement holiday from us of equivalent<br />

or closely similar standard & price (if one is available). This can include the choice of a replacement holiday from another TUI<br />

<strong>Travel</strong> Group company. Should you choose this option the terms & conditions of your holiday will not change & these conditions<br />

will still apply to your booking. In either case, we will pay you compensation, using the scale shown (unless we cancel your holiday<br />

because you do not pay us the balance of the holiday price or because of one of the events listed in the ‘Important note –<br />

events beyond our control’) & we will always refund the difference in price if the replacement holiday is of a lower standard &<br />

price. We will not cancel your holiday less than 8 weeks before you go, unless this is the result of one of the events in the<br />

‘Important note – events beyond our control’.<br />

4. If we change your booking details<br />

We hope that we will not have to make any change to your holiday but, because our holidays are planned many months in<br />

advance, we sometimes do need to make changes. We reserve the right to do this at any time. We will let you or your travel<br />

agent know about any important changes when you book. If you have already booked, we will let you know as soon as we can,<br />

if there is time before your departure. Flight timings shown by us are for guidance only & may change. Your Confirmation Invoice<br />

will show the latest planned timings. Your actual flight timings will be shown on your ticket (including any e ticket itinerary), which<br />

you should check carefully as soon as you receive it.<br />

Major changes to your holiday<br />

Occasionally, we have to make major changes to the flight or accommodation making up your holiday with us. If we tell you<br />

about any of these changes after we have confirmed your holiday booking, you may either:<br />

- accept the new arrangements offered by us; or<br />

- accept a replacement holiday from us of equivalent or closely similar standard & price, if one is available; this can include the<br />

choice of a replacement holiday from another TUI <strong>Travel</strong> Group company. Should you choose this option the terms<br />

& conditions of your holiday will not change & these conditions will still apply to your booking; or<br />

- cancel your holiday with us & receive a full refund of all monies paid.<br />

Either way, we will pay you compensation, using the Compensation table shown, unless the change is for reasons beyond our<br />

control (see the ‘Important note – events beyond our control’) & we will always refund the difference in price if the replacement<br />

holiday is of a lower standard & price.<br />

Compensation<br />

<strong>The</strong>se scales are based on how many days before your booked holiday departure we tell you of a major change. See also<br />

the ‘Important note – events beyond our control’.<br />

Period before departure when a major change is notified Compensation payable per person<br />

More than 56 days 0<br />

55-29 days £10<br />

28-15 days £20<br />

14-8 days £30<br />

7-0 days £40<br />

Major changes to your holiday for which we will always pay compensation, using the scale shown, may include the following<br />

changes: a significant change of destination; a change in accommodation to that of a lower category, a change in the time of your<br />

departure or return flight by more than 12 hours, a change of UK departure airport (excluding changes between London<br />

airports, London, Ebbsfleet & Ashford stations & between Dover/Folkestone ports) but see also ‘Important note – events<br />

156<br />

beyond our control’. <strong>The</strong>se changes are only examples & there may be other significant changes which constitute major changes.<br />

This standard payment will not affect your statutory or other legal rights. We will only make one payment for each<br />

full-fare-paying adult in the holiday booking. Any children not paying the full adult fare will receive 50% of these amounts.<br />

Children using a free child place will not receive any standard payment.<br />

If the change is not acceptable to you<br />

If any major change indicated above is not acceptable to you, you can cancel your holiday booking. In this case, we will refund all<br />

the money you have paid us & will pay you compensation, as shown above, depending on how many days before your holiday<br />

we tell you about this change. This standard payment will not affect your statutory or other legal rights.<br />

Important note – events beyond our control<br />

Events beyond our control include: war, threat of war, riots, civil disturbances, terrorist activity, industrial disputes, natural &<br />

nuclear disasters, fire, epidemics, health risks, technical problems with transport including changes due to rescheduling or<br />

cancellation of flights by an airline or alteration of the airline or aircraft type for reasons beyond our control or that of our<br />

suppliers; closed or congested airports or ports, hurricanes & other actual or potential severe weather conditions, & any other<br />

similar events.<br />

In February 2005 a new Europe-wide law relating to denied boarding, delays & cancellation of flights came into force.<br />

This law granted rights to passengers including in certain circumstances the right to cancel their flight & receive reimbursement<br />

of the cost of the flight from their airline. Full details of these rights is publicised at EU airports & is also available from affected<br />

airlines. You should note that reimbursement of the cost of a flight that forms part of your holiday is the responsibility of your<br />

airline & will not automatically entitle you to reimbursement of the cost of your holiday from us.<br />

5. What happens to holiday complaints<br />

We can usually sort out any complaints you may have. But if we cannot agree, you can take the matter to an arbitrator appointed<br />

by <strong>The</strong> Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. Details & application forms are available from ABTA, 30 Park Street, London, SE1 9EQ.<br />

<strong>The</strong> arbitrator will only deal with your complaint if it relates to a holiday &:<br />

• you are claiming up to £5,000 for each person or £25,000 for each booking;<br />

• you contact them within 9 months of the end of your holiday; &<br />

• your complaint does not involve major physical injury or illness in excess of £1,000.<br />

This is a cheap & simple way of sorting out complaints & there are limits on the costs you may have to pay. You do not have to<br />

appear in person, but can send documents to explain your complaint. If you would like more details, please ask our Customer<br />

Service Department. If you prefer, you can take your complaint to the County Court or another suitable court.<br />

YOUR FINANCIAL PROTECTION<br />

<strong>The</strong> Package <strong>Travel</strong>, Package Holidays & Package Tours Regulations 1992 require us to provide security for the monies that you<br />

pay for the package holidays booked from us & for your repatriation in the event of our insolvency. We provide this security by<br />

way of an ATOL (number 2524) administered by the Civil Aviation Authority & a bond held by ABTA for packages that do not<br />

include flights. If you book arrangements other than a package holiday from us, the financial protection referred to above does<br />

not apply.<br />

6. Our responsibility for your holiday<br />

We will arrange for you to receive the services that make up the holiday that you choose & that we confirm. <strong>The</strong>se services will<br />

be provided either directly by us or through independent suppliers contracted by us. We are responsible for making sure that<br />

each part of the holiday you book with us is provided to a reasonable standard & as was advertised by us (or as changed &<br />

accepted by you). If any part of your holiday is not provided as described & this spoils your holiday, we will pay you appropriate<br />

compensation (see the ‘Important note – events beyond our control’).<br />

We have taken all reasonable care to make sure that all the services which make up the holidays advertised by us are provided<br />

by efficient & reputable businesses. <strong>The</strong>se businesses should follow the local & national laws & regulations of the country where<br />

they are provided. However, overseas safety standards are generally lower than in the UK, for example few hotels yet meet EC<br />

fire safety recommendations even in Europe.<br />

7. Personal Injury 1<br />

This section covers injury, illness or death while you are using the holiday services that we have arranged for you. We have no<br />

direct control over the way our suppliers provide their services but everyone employed or contracted by us or by our suppliers is<br />

expected to carry out their duties in accordance with accepted standards of behaviour. If they do not carry out their duties in<br />

accordance with accepted standards of behaviour (or at all) & that fault results in your injury, illness or death, we may make a<br />

payment to you. We will not make any payment if your injury, illness or death was caused by an event or circumstances which the<br />

person who caused it could not have predicted or avoided even if they had taken all necessary & due care. We will not make any<br />

payment if your illness, injury or death was your own fault. If we do make a payment, it will be similar to one you would receive<br />

under English law in an English court.<br />

Note: We will make such payments for injury, illness or death on the basis that you are expected to accept that:<br />

1. You must tell us & the supplier involved about your injury or illness while you are in the resort (see section 13). You should<br />

also write to our Customer Services at the address given in our A-Z Guide about your claim within 3 months of coming home<br />

from your holiday to allow us to investigate it properly & co-operate with us so as to enable us to carry out such investigation.<br />

Please include a letter about your injury or illness from your doctor if you can.<br />

2. You should transfer to us any rights you have against the supplier or any other person.<br />

3. You should co-operate fully with us if we or our insurers want to enforce those rights.<br />

4. Any payments we make may be limited in accordance with international conventions.<br />

We ask you to transfer your rights to us so that we can claim back from suppliers any payments we make to you, plus any legal<br />

or other costs.<br />

8. Personal Injury 2<br />

This section covers damages, injury, illness or death which is not connected with the arrangements made by us. If you or<br />

someone on your holiday booking is injured, falls ill or dies while taking part in an activity which is not part of the holiday, or you<br />

need to incur unpredictable extra expenses for which we are not liable (see ‘Important note – events beyond our control’) we<br />

will, where appropriate & subject to our discretion, try to help if we can. For example, we can help by: • providing translation<br />

services • communicating with authorities & others in foreign resorts • recommending foreign lawyers (if necessary)<br />

• explaining the procedures you should follow • telling you of any time limits.<br />

We will help everyone on your holiday booking up to a total cost to us of £5,000 provided the following conditions are met:<br />

1. You must ask us for help within three months of coming back from holiday.<br />

2. You must make a claim under your insurance policy’s legal expenses or other appropriate section. You must show us proof that<br />

your insurance company has received your claim &, if you get back the cost of legal or other expenses, you must repay us any<br />

money we have spent in helping you.<br />

YOUR AGREEMENT WITH US<br />

9. Your contract<br />

By asking us or your travel agent to confirm your booking, you are accepting on behalf of all persons travelling on this booking<br />

that the terms of this Agreement, which incorporate the information, restrictions & obligations set out in our A-Z Guide, & the<br />

conditions of any terms & conditions of carriage – see Conditions of Your Ticket – constitute the entire agreement between us<br />

with regard to your booking & your travel arrangements. You also consent to our processing personal information about you &<br />

other members of your party. Where the context permits, reference to “you” & “your” will include you & all persons travelling on<br />

this booking. Your contract with us shall be governed by & construed in accordance with the law of England & Wales. You agree<br />

to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England & Wales over any claim or matter arising under or in connection<br />

with your contract with us. You may however choose to submit to the law & jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you are<br />

resident in either of these jurisdictions but not to any other law &/or jurisdiction.<br />

10. Paying for your travel arrangements<br />

You will be required to pay a deposit to us for each person when you book unless this is within 8 weeks of departure when the<br />

full amount for the booking is payable. <strong>The</strong> deposit amount will be specified by us or your travel agent when your booking is<br />

made. If it is not specified then it will be the amount that we ask you to pay when you book, even if this is 100% of the holiday<br />

price. If you pay less than the deposit under a low deposit booking scheme, then this is only part of the deposit referred to in<br />

this paragraph. <strong>The</strong> remaining deposit will be due on cancellation or date specified at time of booking or on your confirmation<br />

invoice Please note your booking deposit may be increased or there may be a charge payable for some accommodation, holidays<br />

or flight bookings where it is necessary to secure specific facilities with full payment at the time of booking e.g. weddings, coach<br />

touring & specific types of airline tickets. Once confirmed, the booking deposit, additional charges paid & insurance premiums will<br />

not be refunded in the event of cancellation except in the circumstances specified in Sections 2, 3 or 4 or as otherwise required<br />

by law. This is your only commitment until 8 weeks before you go. Within 2 weeks of booking, we will send you a Confirmation<br />

Invoice showing how much you owe us. You must pay the amount on the last Invoice issued by us, at least 8 weeks before you<br />

go on holiday. If you don’t, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled & to charge you a cancellation charge up to<br />

100% of the total on that last Invoice, in accordance with section 12.<br />

If you pay money for your booking to a travel agent appointed by us, they will hold that money as our agent from the time they<br />

receive it until they pay the money to us. Telephone bookings may incur an additional charge, check at time of booking.<br />

If your payment is made by credit card a handling fee will apply, please check fee at time of booking. This may also apply to some<br />

debit cards. We do not accept personal cheques, only building society & bankers' drafts will be accepted.<br />

11. If you change your booking<br />

1. If you want to change any details of your booking (such as changing to a different hotel or cruise or changing a name in your<br />

booking) or to cancel an optional extra you have booked, we will do our best to help but please note that more major changes,<br />

such as those that would lower the basic price of your holiday or that would otherwise result in your holiday ceasing to be a<br />

Package Holiday or a Thomson Cruise, will be treated by us as a different holiday (see 11.4(i)) & changes to the hotel or flight<br />

within 56 days of departure will also be treated by us as a different holiday (see 11.4(ii)). We charge an ‘Amendment Fee’ for each<br />

detail of the booking which we allow you to change without a cancellation.<br />

If you make the allowed change more than 56 days before departure, the fee will be £35 per change per person. If you make the<br />

allowed change within 56 days of departure, the amendment fee will be £50 per change per person.<br />

2. <strong>The</strong> price of your new travel arrangements will be based on the prices that apply on the day you ask for the change.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se prices may not be the same as when you first booked your travel arrangements.<br />

3. Name change, & or departure details such as date & time changes are not always allowed by airlines & other transport<br />

providers whenever they are made. Whilst we will do our best to change the details of the booking, please bear in mind that<br />

most airlines & other transport providers treat name & departure detail changes as a cancellation & charge accordingly. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

charges will be passed on to you. Once tickets have been issued, & sometimes even before they have been issued, any<br />

changes made to the ticket, including names or initials, will result in you having to pay for the cancelled ticket & buy a new<br />

ticket at full cost.<br />

4. If: (i) at any time after you have booked your holiday, you want either to change to a different holiday or change your hotel,<br />

flight or cruise, & as a result your holiday ceases to be a package holiday; or


(ii) within 56 days of departure, you want either to change to a different holiday or change your hotel, flight or cruise;<br />

then you will have to pay cancellation charges (see section 12). If the change means we must send you new tickets, we cannot<br />

give you any refund until we have received all your old travel documents, including tickets.<br />

5. Some types of accommodation (such as apartments, or hotel rooms with reductions for 3 adults) are priced according to the<br />

number of people staying there. If your booking changes because someone in your party cancels, we will recalculate your booking<br />

cost based on the new number of people going. If fewer people share the accommodation, then the cost for them may go up.<br />

This extra cost is not a cancellation charge, & it is not covered by our insurance.<br />

6. Subject always to clause 11.3, if you are prevented from taking the holiday you have booked, you may transfer your booking to<br />

another person, provided you meet the following conditions:<br />

- You must authorise us to make the transfer;<br />

- <strong>The</strong> person to whom you transfer your holiday booking must comply with all the terms of the existing booking;<br />

- That person must accept the transfer & the terms of Our Agreement;<br />

- That person must show us new evidence of their holiday insurance, as your policy cannot be transferred to another person<br />

(and the premium cannot be refunded);<br />

- We will also charge amendment fees in accordance with section 11.1. This will be added to the new Invoice issued;<br />

- You cannot transfer a holiday booking within 14 days of departure; &<br />

- You will remain responsible for the payment of any balance on that new Invoice should that person fail to pay it.<br />

12. If you cancel your booking<br />

If you want to cancel your booking or part of it, you or your travel agent must advise us. Once we receive your notice of<br />

cancellation you should expect to receive a Cancellation Invoice within 14 days. If you do not then please contact us. To cover the<br />

cost of processing your cancellation & to compensate us for the risk that we may not be able to resell your travel arrangements,<br />

we make a cancellation charge on the scale shown below. <strong>The</strong> person who made the booking is responsible for paying this<br />

charge. <strong>The</strong> size of the charge depends on when we receive your notification.<br />

If you are travelling on a scheduled flight, we cannot give you any refund until we have received your old travel documents,<br />

including tickets. Please return them to us or your travel agent immediately.<br />

Please note that for certain travel arrangements e.g. coach tours & many scheduled transport providers the cancellation charge<br />

may be higher than those shown. In certain cases a 100% cancellation fee applies as soon as the booking is made & the ticket is<br />

issued. Please ask for full details of cancellation charges at time of booking. Please check your insurance policy to see if you are<br />

covered for the cancellation charge.<br />

Cancellation charges<br />

<strong>The</strong>se charges are based on how many days before your booked departure we receive your cancellation notice. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

charges are a percentage of the total cost of your booking, not including your insurance premium.<br />

Period before departure when notice of cancellation is received. % of total booking price.<br />

56 days or more Loss of deposit*<br />

55-36 days 50%<br />

35-22 days 70%<br />

21-11 days 90%<br />

10-0 days 100%<br />

* Where the standard deposit is increased to secure specific facilities or an additional payment has been made for<br />

transport tickets (see Section 10 and 11.3) and these are non-refundable in whole or in part, then the scale of charges<br />

shown will be calculated based on a % of the cost of all other arrangements and the non-refundable charges will be<br />

added to that cancellation charge to give the total charge. If a low deposit scheme was used for your booking, the full<br />

deposit as advised at time of booking or as stated on the confirmation invoice will need to be paid in full upon<br />

cancellation, if you have not already paid the full percentage of deposit due (standard deposit £130 per person short<br />

haul and £200 per person long haul).<br />

13. If you have a complaint<br />

If you have a complaint about your arrangements whilst away, you must immediately notify the supplier of the service in<br />

question locally. If they are unable to resolve the problem immediately, & a member of our staff is not available, you should<br />

contact us straight away by telephone/fax & we will endeavour to assist. If you are still not satisfied on your return home, you<br />

must write to our Customer Services at the address given in our A-Z Guide, within 28 days of returning from your holiday to<br />

allow your complaint to be investigated properly. Please write your holiday reference number on your letter, & include your<br />

daytime & evening telephone numbers. If you do not give us the opportunity to resolve any problem locally by reporting it to the<br />

supplier, or calling & informing us, then we may not be able to deal positively with any complaint on your return.<br />

14. Conduct While <strong>Travel</strong>ling<br />

We reserve the right to refuse to accept you as a customer or continue dealing with you if your behaviour is disruptive or affects<br />

other travellers or is threatening or abusive towards our staff or agents in the UK or resort, on the telephone, in writing or in<br />

person. If the Captain of your flight or cruise ship or any of our resort staff believes that you could be disruptive or that you are<br />

suffering from a contagious disease, they can also refuse to let you proceed with your travel arrangements or restrict your<br />

movements on board or disembark you from a ship or aircraft. If you are disruptive & this means you are not allowed to board<br />

the flight outbound from the UK, we will treat your booking as cancelled by you from that moment, & you will have to pay full<br />

cancellation charges (see section 12). If this occurs overseas then you will become responsible for your own return home & any<br />

other members of your group who cannot or will not travel without you. If you are refused carriage because of your disruptive<br />

behaviour, or you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs, your airline may pass on your details & date of the refusal of<br />

carriage to other airlines for their information. This in turn may make it difficult for you to book other airline tickets. In any of<br />

these circumstances no refunds or compensation will be paid to you & we may make a claim against you for any costs &<br />

expenses incurred as a result of your behaviour e.g. the cost of diverting an aircraft or ship to remove you. Criminal proceedings<br />

may also be instigated.<br />

15. Your accommodation<br />

Any accommodation we arrange for you must only be used by those people named on your Confirmation Invoice (or on latest<br />

Amendment Invoice issued). You are not allowed to share the accommodation or let anyone else stay there. You are responsible<br />

for the cost of any damage caused to your accommodation or its contents during your stay,. <strong>The</strong>se charges must be met by you<br />

& may have to be paid locally.<br />

16. <strong>The</strong> conditions of your ticket<br />

When you travel by air or by sea, your journey may be subject to certain international conventions such as the Warsaw<br />

Convention, Montreal Convention or Athens Convention. You agree that the transport company’s own ‘Conditions of Carriage’ will<br />

apply to you on that journey. When arranging this transportation for you, we rely on the terms & conditions contained within<br />

these international conventions & those ‘Conditions of Carriage'. You acknowledge that all of these terms & conditions form part<br />

of your contract with us as well as with the transport company. You can ask us or the travel agent booking your holiday to<br />

provide you with a copy of any of the conditions applicable to your journey. <strong>The</strong> airline’s terms & conditions are available on<br />

request & Thomson Cruises & Louis Cruise Lines conditions of carriage are available at www.thomson.co.uk/cruise. We will tell you<br />

the identity of the air carrier when you book with us & if it is not known at that time or subsequently changes we will inform you<br />

as soon as possible & no later than at check-in.<br />

17. Contacting you<br />

If you book via our website or have opted in other circumstances for us to contact you via e-mail, we will communicate with you<br />

using the e-mail address you have provided. For example, to provide your e-confirmation, e-ticket, e-cancellation, etc. We will<br />

assume that your e-mail address is correct & that you understand the risks associated with using this form of communication.<br />

You may still have to contact us via our call centre or in writing as required in our terms & conditions.<br />

Our Agreement for your Accommodation Booking<br />

We are a trading division of TUI UK Limited, Company Number 02830117, having its Registered Office address at TUI <strong>Travel</strong><br />

<strong>House</strong>, Crawley Business Quarter, Fleming Way, Crawley, West Sussex RH10 9QL, & this section entitled ‘Our Agreement with<br />

You’ sets out what you are legally entitled to expect from us when you book accommodation with us.<br />

1. Your accommodation booking<br />

Whether you book alone or as a group, we will only deal with the lead booking name in all subsequent correspondence, including<br />

changes, amendments & cancellations. You must be 18 yrs old at the time of booking & possess the legal capacity & authority to<br />

book as the lead name & take up the offers advertised by us if they are still available. It is a condition of your booking with us<br />

that you & all other members of your party, including infants & children, are adequately insured & any person who is under 18<br />

yrs old must be accompanied by an adult whilst staying at the accommodation. <strong>The</strong>re may be other restrictions & conditions on<br />

some offers, but these are explained in the details of those offers. When you or (if you are booking through a travel agent) your<br />

travel agent ask for your booking to be confirmed, we will confirm the booking there & then, & set aside your chosen<br />

accommodation for you. Next, we will send you or your travel agent a confirmation invoice. If any detail on the confirmation<br />

invoice is not correct you must tell us or your travel agent immediately. If there is an obvious error on the confirmation invoice we<br />

reserve the right to correct it as soon as we become aware of it, but we will do this within 7 days of issuing the confirmation<br />

invoice or, if your date of arrival in the accommodation is within 7 days, no later than 24 hrs before that date. If any of these<br />

changes are material & not acceptable to you, you will be entitled to a full refund.<br />

2. <strong>The</strong> price you pay<br />

All prices we advertise are accurate at the date published, but we reserve the right to change any of those prices from time to<br />

time. Prices can go up or down. We will be able to tell you or your travel agent the up-to-date price of your chosen<br />

accommodation advertised by us before confirming your booking.<br />

We reserve the right to increase the price of your accommodation after you have booked but no later than 30 days before the<br />

arrival date stipulated & will forward an Amendment Invoice reflecting any changes made. After a Confirmation Invoice has been<br />

sent to you, any increase to your accommodation price will be as the result of changes in our costs of supplying your<br />

accommodation resulting from currency fluctuations & government action. An administration charge & any relevant travel agent’s<br />

commission is included within these amounts.<br />

ATOL protection does not apply to all holiday & travel services shown in this brochure. Please ask us to confirm what protection<br />

may apply to your booking.<br />

3. If we cancel your booking<br />

We aim to provide your accommodation as booked. But if, for example, you do not pay the balance of the accommodation<br />

price on time, we may cancel it. We reserve the right to cancel your booking in any circumstances but if we cancel your<br />

booking you can either have a full refund or accept replacement accommodation from us of equivalent or closely similar<br />

standard & price (if one is available). This can include the choice of a replacement accommodation from another TUI <strong>Travel</strong><br />

Group company. Should you choose this option the terms & conditions of your holiday will not change & these conditions will<br />

Our Agreement with You, and Yours with Us<br />

still apply to your booking & we will always refund the difference in price if the replacement accommodation is of a lower<br />

standard & price. Other than in the case of non-payment, we will not cancel your booking less than 8 weeks before you go,<br />

unless this is the result of an event out of our control, such as war, threat of war, riots, civil disturbances, terrorist activity,<br />

industrial disputes, natural & nuclear disasters, fire, epidemics, health risks, hurricanes & other actual or potential severe<br />

weather conditions, & any other similar events.<br />

4. If we change your booking details<br />

We hope that we will not have to make any change to your booking but, because accommodation is reserved many months in<br />

advance, we sometimes do need to make changes. We reserve the right to do this at any time. This can include the choice of a<br />

replacement accommodation from another TUI <strong>Travel</strong> Group company, however, the terms & conditions of your booking will not<br />

change & these conditions will still apply to your booking. We will let you or your travel agent know about any important changes<br />

when you book. If you have already booked, we will let you know as soon as we can, if there is time before your planned arrival<br />

date at the accommodation.<br />

5. Our responsibility for your accommodation booking<br />

We will arrange for you to receive the facilities that make up the accommodation you choose & that we confirm. We are<br />

responsible for making sure that each element of the accommodation you book with us is provided to a reasonable standard<br />

& as was advertised by us (or as changed & accepted by you). We have taken all reasonable care to make sure that the<br />

accommodation you have booked with us is provided by an efficient & reputable supplier. This supplier should follow the local<br />

& national laws & regulations of the country where the accommodation is situated. However, overseas safety standards are<br />

generally lower than in the UK, for example few hotels meet EC fire safety recommendations even in Europe.<br />

6. Personal injury<br />

This section covers injury, illness or death while you are staying at the accommodation that we have booked for you. We have no<br />

direct control over the way our suppliers maintain & operate their properties but everyone employed or contracted by us or by<br />

our suppliers is expected to carry out their duties in accordance with accepted standards of behaviour. If they do not carry out<br />

their duties in accordance with accepted standards of behaviour (or at all) & that fault results in your injury, illness or death, we<br />

may make a payment to you. We will not make any payment if your injury, illness or death was caused by an event or<br />

circumstances which the person who caused it could not have predicted or avoided even if they had taken all necessary & due<br />

care. We will not make any payment if your illness, injury or death was your own fault. If we do make a payment, it will be similar<br />

to one you would receive under English law in an English court.<br />

We will make such payments for injury, illness or death on the basis that you are expected to accept that:<br />

1. You must tell us & the supplier involved about your injury or illness while you are in the resort (see section 10). You should<br />

also write to our Customer Services Department at TUI <strong>Travel</strong>, Peel Cross Rd, Salford, Manchester, M5 4DN about your claim<br />

within three months in order to allow us to investigate it properly & co-operate with us so as to enable us to carry out such<br />

investigation. Please include a letter about your injury or illness from your doctor if you can.<br />

2. You should transfer to us any rights you have against the supplier or any other person.<br />

3. You should co-operate fully with us if we or our insurers want to enforce those rights.<br />

4. Any payments we make may be limited in accordance with international conventions.<br />

We ask you to transfer your rights to us so that we can claim back from suppliers any payments we make to you, plus any legal<br />

or other costs.<br />

YOUR AGREEMENT WITH US<br />

7. Your contract<br />

By asking us or your travel agent to confirm your booking, you are accepting that the terms of this Agreement constitutes the<br />

entire agreement between us with regard to your booking & your accommodation. You also consent to our processing<br />

personal information about you & other members of your party. Your contract with us shall be governed by & construed in<br />

accordance with the law of England & Wales. You agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England & Wales<br />

over any claim or matter arising under or in connection with your contract with us. You may however choose to submit to the<br />

law & jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you are resident in either of these jurisdictions but not to any other<br />

law &/or jurisdiction. We may transfer your booking to another company within our group; this will have no effect on your<br />

holiday arrangements.<br />

8. Paying for your accommodation booking<br />

You will be required to pay 100% of your accommodation price before we can confirm your booking. Sometimes, you may be<br />

able to complete your booking by paying a deposit only. If this option is available, it will be clearly stated at the point of sale &<br />

you will be required to pay to us for each person in your party when you book unless this is within eight weeks of the date of<br />

arrival at the accommodation when the full amount for the booking is payable. <strong>The</strong> deposit amount will be specified by us or<br />

your travel agent when your booking is made. If it is not specified then it will be the amount that we ask you to pay when you<br />

book, even if this is 100% of the accommodation price. If you pay less than the deposit under a low deposit booking scheme,<br />

then this is only part of the deposit referred to in this paragraph. Once confirmed, the booking deposit, additional charges paid &<br />

insurance premiums (if taken out with our preferred insurers & collected by us) will not be refunded in the event of cancellation<br />

except in the circumstances specified in Sections 3 or 4 or as otherwise required by law.<br />

If a deposit is allowed, the deposit payment will be your only commitment until 8 weeks before your date of arrival. Within 2<br />

weeks of booking, we will send you a Confirmation Invoice showing how much you owe us. You must pay the amount on the last<br />

invoice issued by us, at least 8 weeks before your planned arrival date at the accommodation. If you do not, we reserve the right<br />

to treat your booking as cancelled & to charge you a cancellation charge up to 100% of the total on that last invoice. If you pay<br />

money for your booking to a travel agent appointed by us, they will hold that money as our agent from the time they receive it<br />

until they pay the money to us.<br />

If payment for your booking is made by credit card a handling fee will apply. Please check fee at the time of booking. Telephone<br />

bookings may incur an additional charge, check at time of booking.<br />

Should you instruct your credit/debit card company to “charge back” any payment(s) properly due from you in respect of your<br />

booking, we will charge you an administrative fee of £10 per incident & associated costs. We further reserve the right to cancel<br />

your booking &/or take legal action against you for all outstanding payment(s).<br />

9. If you change or cancel your booking<br />

If you wish to change or cancel your booking you must advise us. If you want to change any details of your booking (such as<br />

changing to different accommodation or changing a name in your party), we will do our best to help. If a change you requested<br />

is made we will charge an ‘amendment fee’ for each detail of the booking which we allow you to change without a cancellation.<br />

If you make the allowed change more than 56 days before the date of arrival at the accommodation, the fee will be £35 per<br />

change per person. If you make the allowed change within 56 days of the date of arrival at the accommodation, the<br />

amendment fee will be £50 per change per person.<br />

If you want to cancel your accommodation booking or part of it the lead name on the booking must advise us. Once we receive<br />

your notice of cancellation you should expect to receive a cancellation invoice within 14 days. If you do not then please contact<br />

us. To cover the cost of processing your cancellation & to compensate us for the risk that we may not be able to resell your<br />

accommodation, we make a cancellation charge on the scale shown below. <strong>The</strong> person who made the booking is responsible<br />

for paying this charge. <strong>The</strong> size of the charge depends on when we receive your notification – the more notice you give, the less<br />

we will charge.<br />

Cancellation charges<br />

<strong>The</strong>se charges are based on how many days before your booked arrival time we receive your cancellation notice. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

charges are a percentage of the total cost of your booked accommodation.<br />

Period before departure within which % of total booking price.<br />

written notice of cancellation is received.<br />

56 days or more Loss of deposit*<br />

55-36 days 50%<br />

35-22 days 70%<br />

21-11 days 90%<br />

10-0 days 100%<br />

* If a low deposit scheme was used for your booking, the full deposit will need to be paid in full upon cancellation, if you<br />

have not already paid it (standard deposit £130 per person short haul and £200 per person long haul).<br />

Some types of accommodation (such as apartments, or hotel rooms with reductions for three adults) are priced according to the<br />

number of people staying there. If your booking changes because someone in your party cancels, we will recalculate your booking<br />

cost based on the new number of people staying. If fewer people share the accommodation, then the cost for them may go up.<br />

This extra cost is not a cancellation charge, & it is not covered by our insurance.<br />

10. If you have a complaint<br />

If you have a complaint about your accommodation whilst away, you must immediately notify the supplier of the service in<br />

question locally. If they are unable to resolve the problem immediately, & a member of our staff is not available, you should<br />

contact us straight away by telephone/fax & we will endeavour to assist. If you are still not satisfied, you must write to our<br />

Customer Services Department at TUI <strong>Travel</strong>, Peel Cross Rd, Salford, Manchester, M5 4DN, within 28 days of your leaving the<br />

accommodation to allow your complaint to be investigated properly. Please write your booking reference on your letter, & include<br />

your daytime & evening telephone numbers. If you do not give us the opportunity to resolve any problem locally by reporting it<br />

to the accommodation supplier, or calling & informing us then we may not be able to deal positively with any complaint that you<br />

make to us in writing.<br />

11. Your Conduct towards staff & other guests<br />

We reserve the right to refuse to accept you as a customer or continue dealing with you if your behaviour is disruptive or affects<br />

other guests or is threatening or abusive towards our staff or agents in the UK or resort, on the telephone, in writing or in<br />

person. In any of these circumstances you may be evicted from the accommodation & no refunds will be paid to you & we may<br />

make a claim against you for any costs & expenses incurred as a result of your behaviour. Criminal proceedings may also be<br />

instigated. Reference to “you” or “your” includes for the purposes of this section the conduct of any other person in your party.<br />

12. Your accommodation<br />

<strong>The</strong> accommodation must only be used by those people named on your Confirmation Invoice (or on any Amendment Invoice).<br />

You are not allowed to share the accommodation or let anyone else stay there. You are responsible for the cost of any damage to<br />

your accommodation or its contents during your stay. <strong>The</strong>se charges must be met by you & may have to be paid locally.<br />

13. Contacting you<br />

If you book via our website or have opted in other circumstances for us to contact you via e-mail, we will communicate with you<br />

using the e-mail address you have provided. For example, to provide your e-confirmation, e-ticket, e-cancellation, etc. We will<br />

assume that your e-mail address is correct & that you understand the risks associated with using this form of communication.<br />

Please note that you may still have to contact us via our call centre or in writing as required in our terms & conditions.<br />

Important Notice - Insurance: It is a condition of booking that you & all other<br />

suitable insurance policy for your travel arrangements as we are unable to<br />

accept responsibility for any costs incurred as a result of your not having<br />

adequate insurance. If you choose not to take our insurance & choose a different<br />

company, you must tell us so we can record the company details & policy<br />

number before we can confirm your booking. Details of our insurance policy are<br />

available upon booking. Please note: some hazardous activities may require<br />

additional coverage; please check with your insurance provider.<br />

In addition to ensuring that you have adequate private travel insurance, for<br />

customers travelling within the European Economic Area, it is recommended that<br />

you also obtain a European Health Insurance Card. For details visit<br />

www.ehic.org.uk. It is important to note that this card is NOT a replacement for<br />

adequate travel insurance and will not, on its own, satisfy the obligation that you<br />

have to secure such insurance.<br />

Accuracy of Information<br />

We inspect properties & facilities regularly to ensure that the information we<br />

provide is accurate. However, circumstances & facilities can change after brochure<br />

publication. Public holidays & religious festivals may also affect the availability of<br />

resort & hotel facilities. <strong>The</strong> tourist office for your chosen destination can provide<br />

details of such events. We will tell you of any changes that we know about when<br />

you book your holiday. Ask your holiday advisor to check the reservations system<br />

for any changes in conditions. If you have already booked, we will tell you of any<br />

change in circumstances that would affect your holiday as soon as we can before<br />

you leave.<br />

■ Flight timings: May change with little notice from those published. Your ticket<br />

will show the final flight details.<br />

vice versa.<br />

■ Sea views: May be partly blocked by trees from both public & guest rooms.<br />

by writing to us at our customer services department.<br />

Your Flight<br />

Please note that this section applies mainly to Thomson Airways bookings.<br />

your carrier, together with the below as some sections may still be relevant to<br />

your booking.<br />

Air travel conditions of carriage: You must comply with the conditions of<br />

carriage applied by land, sea & air carriers. <strong>The</strong> provisions of the Warsaw<br />

Convention 1929 (as amended) concerning the carriage of passengers & their<br />

luggage by air, & the airlines’ conditions of carriage, may apply to you & your<br />

party during your flight, & during boarding & disembarkation. <strong>The</strong>se provisions &<br />

conditions may limit or exclude liability for death or personal injury, or loss of or<br />

damage to luggage, & may make special provisions for valuables. We’ll supply a<br />

copy of the conditions of carriage applicable to your holiday, & of the Warsaw<br />

Convention, on request.<br />

Airline codes: In accordance with EU regulations we’re required to advise you of<br />

boarding gate.<br />

Alcohol & smoking: You may not drink your own alcohol on a flight, whether you<br />

bought it on board, on holiday or in the UK. All charter holiday flights are non-<br />

smoking. For safety reasons, on short haul flights, butane lighters must not be<br />

packed in hand baggage or hold baggage & must only be carried on your person.<br />

Failure to comply with these requirements may result in you & other members<br />

of your party being denied boarding.<br />

Baggage limits<br />

■ Hand baggage: You may take 1 item of hand baggage (max. dimensions:<br />

55x45x25cm). <strong>The</strong> total weight of hand luggage allowance may vary, depending<br />

on your holiday. You should be able to lift this yourself into overhead storage<br />

compartments. Other bags such as handbags, laptop bags or laptop computers<br />

must be carried within the single item of cabin baggage. <strong>The</strong>re are restrictions on<br />

what you may carry in your hand luggage - please read carefully the information<br />

enclosed with your tickets.<br />

■ Hold baggage content: Baggage will only be accepted if packed & secured in<br />

suitcases or similar containers and capable of withstanding reasonable handling.<br />

Any passenger presenting baggage insecurely or insufficiently packed, or already<br />

damaged, must sign a disclaimer waiving their right to any subsequent claim. You<br />

must not include in your checked baggage money, jewellery, precious metals,<br />

computers, personal electronic devices, negotiable papers, securities or other<br />

valuables, business documents, passports & other identification documents or<br />

samples. <strong>The</strong> airline has no liability for loss or damage to valuable or fragile items<br />

packed in hold baggage however caused. Any single piece of baggage weighing<br />

over the 23kg maximum limit will not be accepted by the airline at the check-in<br />

desk. Customers who have pre-paid for an additional check-in allowance which<br />

places them over the 23kg limit must check in an additional bag.<br />

■ Standard luggage allowance: Each customer is entitled to a check-in<br />

allowance of 20kg baggage & a maximum 5kg for hand baggage. No single item<br />

of baggage may exceed 23kg. Baggage allowances are per person & cannot be<br />

pooled across a party (i.e. 25kg for one passenger & 15kg for the other). See<br />

discounted holiday section for exclusions. Luggage allowances may vary and are<br />

subject to change. Please check at time of booking.<br />

■ Premier & Premium Upgrade luggage allowance: Each customer is entitled<br />

to check-in allowance of 23kg & a maximum 7kg for hand baggage. This is only<br />

applicable to Premier & Premium upgrade customers, no single item of baggage<br />

may exceed 23kg.<br />

■ Infants: Infants under the age of 2 now have an individual luggage allowance<br />

of 10kg when flying with Thomson Airways. This allowance for infants is free of<br />

charge and does not need to be pre-booked. Folding pushchairs & wheelchairs<br />

don’t count as part of your baggage allowance, and you won’t be charged to<br />

carry them when travelling with Thomson Airways. Some flights shown are not<br />

operated by Thomson Airways, and on these flights the maximum weight for<br />

checked baggage may be limited to 15kg with no additional allowance for infants.<br />

<strong>The</strong> weight allowed will be shown on your tickets. For customers booking a tour<br />

or twin centre, baggage allowance during the tour or twin centre may be less<br />

than for the international flights. Please ask your holiday advisor for the<br />

latest details.<br />

■ Excess baggage & sports equipment: Carriage of all excess luggage & sports<br />

equipment is subject to a charge & capacity on the day of departure. Customers<br />

can pre-book golf clubs, windsurf boards, diving equipment & other sports<br />

equipment. If you do not pre-book, you may be able to make the necessary<br />

arrangements when checking in at the airport, but charges will apply & carriage<br />

can’t be guaranteed. Bowls may be carried free of charge provided they are<br />

packed in a sturdy one-piece carrying case, & you don’t exceed your baggage<br />

allowance. We can’t guarantee that you’ll be able to take bulky sports equipment<br />

with you on the transfer coach to your holiday accommodation.<br />

■ Lost/damaged baggage: Under the terms of the Montreal Convention, if you<br />

don’t notify us of any loss or damage to your baggage within 7 days of the<br />

discovery of the loss/damage, we will have no liability to you.<br />

Check-in: We recommend you check-in for your flight 2 hours before your<br />

scheduled departure time. If you’re taking a long haul flight, that’s usually a flight<br />

over 5 hours, then we recommend you check-in 3 hours before your flight is due<br />

to leave. <strong>The</strong> desks close promptly, so make sure you’ve completed check-in at<br />

least an hour before take off. Your initials and the spelling of your name must be<br />

identical on your ticket and in your passport.<br />

Day Before Check-in: At London Gatwick, Manchester & Birrmingham Airports,<br />

you can save time by checking in at the airport 12:00-22:00 on the day before<br />

you travel; this means less time spent at the airport on the day of departure. To<br />

comply with the Department for Transport security requirements, ALL members<br />

of your party must present themselves at the airport check-in desk. You will<br />

need to bring everyone’s ticket, passport and all baggage. Our agents will then<br />

explain the arrangements for your departure the next day. Day Before Check-in<br />

is available free of charge for passengers flying with Thomson Airways departing<br />

from London Gatwick and Manchester Airports, and does not need to be pre-<br />

booked. At Birmingham Airport, this service must be pre-booked, and a charge<br />

may apply. Subject to availability. See exclusions below.<br />

■ Exclusions: Customers travelling to destinations requiring additional security<br />

at check-in (currently all USA flights) will not be issued with boarding cards at<br />

the point of Day Before Check-in. Customers may still follow the procedure<br />

above, but will need to return to Check-in the following morning to pick up<br />

boarding cards. This is in line with international security requirements.<br />

Day Before Check-in is not available to customers travelling to certain<br />

cruise destinations.<br />

Disorderly behaviour: <strong>The</strong> captain has authority over the aircraft &<br />

passengers when they are boarding & on board. He/she may prevent you from<br />

travelling if you are considered unfit to do so, or if you pose a danger to the<br />

aircraft or passengers. <strong>The</strong> captain will exercise this right if, for example, you are<br />

found to be drunk before or after boarding, if you smoke on board or use<br />

threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour. In those circumstances, we,<br />

or the airline, at our reasonable discretion, may terminate your holiday. We will<br />

not be responsible for completing your holiday arrangements, nor will we, or the<br />

airline, be liable for any refund, compensation or other costs you may have to<br />

pay. We may also seek compensation from you for any losses caused by your<br />

behaviour (e.g. the cost of diverting an aircraft). Disruption on board an aircraft<br />

is a criminal offence, & you may be prosecuted. If you are refused carriage<br />

because of your disruptive behaviour, or you are under the influence of alcohol<br />

or drugs, your airline may pass on your details and date of the refusal of carriage<br />

to other airlines for their information. This may make it difficult for you to book<br />

other airline tickets.<br />

EU Airline Blacklist: In accordance with EU directive (EC) no. 2111/2005, Article<br />

9, we’re required to bring to your attention the existence of a ‘Community list’<br />

which contains details of air carriers that are subject to an operating ban within<br />

the EU Community. <strong>The</strong> Community list is available at http://air-ban.europa.eu/<br />

Flights & flight times: <strong>The</strong> flights shown are operated by UK, European &<br />

international scheduled & charter airlines, including our own in-house airline.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y use wide & narrow-body jets. We may change airlines or aircraft types at<br />

any time; this does not count as a Major Change. Some flights may need to stop<br />

en route. If we know about this in advance we will tell you. Flight times shown in<br />

the brochure, on the website & on your booking confirmation are not<br />

guaranteed. Actual flight times are shown on your tickets. Flight times are local<br />

times based on the 24hr system.<br />

Flight delays: We believe it’s our responsibility to look after you if your outbound<br />

or return charter flight is delayed for reasons other than Force Majeure. We’ll<br />

keep you informed, & we’ll provide light refreshments for a delay of 2-4hrs,<br />

depending on airport facilities. If the delay is 4-8hrs we’ll provide a meal, or<br />

vouchers for a meal. For a delay of 8-12hrs, we’ll provide overnight<br />

accommodation, if this is necessary & possible. If a flight delay exceeds 5hrs,<br />

you’re entitled to cancel your flight & receive reimbursement of the cost of the<br />

flight element only (this is not a right to reimbursement of the full holiday cost<br />

unless the “If we change or cancel your holiday” paragraph in “Our Agreement”,<br />

in relation to cancellation applies). Arrangements for meals & drinks on All<br />

Inclusive holidays apply only to your hotel.<br />

Flight delay insurance: Our travel insurance policy includes compensation for<br />

major delays. You can buy this insurance when you book your holiday. <strong>The</strong><br />

benefits payable are in addition to the flight delay refreshment &<br />

accommodation policy described above. If you do not take out our insurance,<br />

you should check that your chosen policy offers equivalent cover. You must send<br />

travel delay claims to your insurance company. You can obtain details of the flight<br />

delay from the airline.<br />

Flight supplements: <strong>The</strong> holiday prices in the accommodation price panels are<br />

based on flights that don’t carry a supplement. <strong>The</strong> flight supplements shown on<br />

the Flight pages reflect the additional cost of flying from certain airports, or on<br />

certain days of the week. <strong>The</strong>y should be added to or subtracted from the panel<br />

price for your holiday. Flights not listed in the brochure, but which become<br />

available may also attract extra charges.<br />

General enquiries: For all general enquiries, pre-bookable services, dietary,<br />

medical & assistance requirements, please speak to your holiday advisor or<br />

contact us directly.<br />

Infants: An infant is defined as any child less than 2 yrs of age on the date of<br />

return travel. A charge is made for infants under 2 yrs on the date of their return<br />

flight. This is to cover taxes & charges applied directly to the airline. Infants<br />

under 6 months must sit on an adult’s lap & wear an infant lap strap. Infants<br />

between 6 months & 2yrs must also sit on an adult’s lap secured by an<br />

extension seatbelt provided by the airline for take-off & landing. Infants under 2<br />

yrs will not be entitled to an in-flight meal. If your child celebrates their 2nd<br />

birthday during the holiday, you must book & pay for the appropriate child fare.<br />

All children aged 2 & above must have their own seats on the aircraft. If an<br />

additional seat has been purchased for an infant, a car seat can be used, as long<br />

as it has a proper restraining harness & can be fixed facing forward on the seat<br />

of the aircraft. You must bring your own car seat. It should be in good condition,<br />

must conform to British Safety standards & you should have the instruction<br />

leaflet to show the cabin crew if they need to refer to it. It must not exceed 16<br />

inches or 40cm in width. Carrycots & deluxe child car seats are not suitable, as<br />

they don’t fit. <strong>The</strong> carriage of car seats is at the discretion of the airline. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

regulations may differ when travelling with a non-British registered airline. Call<br />

reservations for information on approved car seats.<br />

Meals on board: A meal can be pre-booked for your journey, if travelling on one<br />

of our long haul routes, an in-flight meal is included as part of your holiday<br />

package. <strong>The</strong>re will be a full range of drinks & snacks for purchase during the<br />

flight. Sandwiches will also be available to purchase on selected flights. Please tell<br />

us when you book if you require a ‘special dietary meal’. <strong>The</strong>se are on a request<br />

basis only & are not guaranteed. For group bookings it won’t be possible for<br />

individual group members to pre-book the meal, all members of the group must<br />

either pre-book or decline the meal. Customers booking the following will receive<br />

a meal as part of their package: Premier properties as listed previously, Premium<br />

Upgrades, customers travelling on long haul routes.<strong>The</strong> Aldo Zilli range of meals<br />

is exclusive to customers travelling on a long haul holiday with our in-house<br />

airlines, & may only be available on selected routes. Please note that on rare<br />

occasions we may find it necessary to substitute the Zilli range of meals with a<br />

similar alternative. Pre-bookable children’s food is available, which are meals that<br />

are especially suitable for children.<br />

Medical Conditions: If you have a medical condition, serious illness, recently<br />

undergone surgery, or have suffered a recent accident, you must be cleared for<br />

travel by the airline and may require a Fitness to Fly Certificate from your GP. All<br />

requests for medical clearance must be submitted to the airline at least 4<br />

working days before the date of departure. Conditions that require medical<br />

clearance include respiratory, coronary or infectious illness.<br />

■ If you need assistance at the airport: please remember that distances at<br />

many airports can be large and may feature steps. If you are a wheelchair user,<br />

are unable to walk more than 500m unaided or require some assistance at the<br />

airport or when boarding the aircraft, then you must contact us and let us know.<br />

It’s really important that you pre-book your airport assistance with us in advance<br />

so that we have the time to make all the necessary arrangements. To help us<br />

lend a hand, assistance should be booked at least 14 days before your departure<br />

date. You can contact us by phone on 0871 664 0143. Calls cost up 10p/min<br />

from a BT landline. Other operator networks may vary.<br />

■ Wheelchair users: Just so you know, if you’re taking a wheelchair with you<br />

when you fly with us, we will transport this plus one other mobility item free of<br />

charge, in addition to your normal baggage allowance. Battery powered<br />

wheelchairs may be carried and further information can be obtained by visiting<br />

the Civil Aviation Authority’s website at www.caa.co.uk and search for ‘Baggage’. It<br />

is important that all wheelchairs can be easily stored in an upright position when<br />

collapsed for carriage. Battery terminals must be protected against short circuit.<br />

You should bring the operating instructions of your wheelchair to the airport and<br />

you must be able to explain to airline/airport staff how to disconnect the<br />

batteries if the power cannot be switched off. We recommend that customers<br />

have insurance cover for the full replacement value of their wheelchair.<br />

■ Deep vein thrombosis: <strong>Travel</strong> involving prolonged immobility can cause<br />

problems for some people with bronchial or circulatory problems, such as deep<br />

vein thrombosis (DVT). This occurs when a blood clot forms, usually in the lower<br />

leg. It is a serious medical condition, and needs treatment with blood thinning<br />

drugs or anticoagulants to prevent clots breaking off from the DVT and travelling<br />

to the lungs, causing significant illness and, on rare occasions, death. <strong>The</strong> risk of<br />

deep vein thrombosis occurring while travelling by air is extremely low. However,<br />

you can take precautions to further reduce the risk. Who is most at risk from<br />

DVT? People with a history of thrombosis, women taking an oral contraceptive<br />

pill or who are pregnant, those recently hospitalised, smokers, the obese, some<br />

patients with congestive heart failure and people with malignant disease.<br />

Dehydration may exacerbate the problem. What can I do to reduce the risk?<br />

Exercise your feet and legs from time to time, or walk around if that is possible.<br />

Elastic stockings may be helpful. Drink plenty of non-alcoholic liquids to prevent<br />

dehydration. See your doctor if you believe you might be particularly prone to<br />

DVT. People with other conditions may need special assistance from the airline. If<br />

you have any concerns about fitness, contact your doctor for advice.<br />

■ Oxygen requests: Please contact the relevant airline at least one month prior<br />

to departure for further details on this service.<br />

■ <strong>Travel</strong>ling while pregnant: If you are pregnant you should check with your<br />

doctor that it is safe for you to travel. Different airlines apply different rules to<br />

women who wish to fly during pregnancy. Most airlines allow travel up to the<br />

28th week. If you are more than 28 weeks pregnant at the time of your return<br />

flight, airlines insist on a medical certificate stating your date of confinement that<br />

pregnancy is uncomplicated and you are fit to fly. If you are more than 34 weeks<br />

pregnant at the time of your return flight, they will refuse to carry you. If you are<br />

expecting twins or more, return travel must be completed by the 32nd week of<br />

pregnancy. Please check your travel insurance policy for any restrictions that<br />

apply to travelling whilst pregnant as many policies cover only up to the 28th<br />

week. You should check with your holiday advisor to ensure that you can travel<br />

on your chosen flight.<br />

Montreal Convention: This is a notice required by European Community<br />

Regulation (EC) No. 889/2002. This notice can’t be used as a basis for a claim for<br />

compensation, nor to interpret the provisions of the Montreal Convention or the<br />

Regulation. It doesn’t form part of the contract between the carrier(s) & you &<br />

no representation is made as to the accuracy of the contents of this notice.<br />

Compensation in the case of death or injury: <strong>The</strong>re are no financial limits to<br />

the liability for passenger injury or death. For damages up to approximately<br />

£80,000, the air carrier can’t contest claims for compensation. Above that<br />

amount, the air carrier can defend itself against a claim by proving that it wasn’t<br />

negligent or otherwise at fault. Advance payments: If a passenger is killed or<br />

injured, the air carrier must make an advance payment, to cover immediate<br />

economic needs, within 15 days from the identification of the person entitled to<br />

compensation. In the event of death, this advance payment shall not be less<br />

than approximately £13,000. Passenger delays: In case of passenger delay, the<br />

air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the<br />

damage or it was impossible to take such measures. <strong>The</strong> liability for passenger<br />

delay is limited to approximately £3,300. Baggage delays: In case of baggage<br />

delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to<br />

avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. <strong>The</strong> liability for<br />

baggage delay is limited to approximately £800. Destruction, loss or damage to<br />

baggage: <strong>The</strong> air carrier is liable for destruction, loss or damage to baggage up to<br />

approximately £800. In the case of checked baggage, it’s liable even if not at<br />

fault, unless the baggage was defective. In the case of unchecked baggage, the<br />

carrier is liable only if at fault. Higher limits for baggage: A passenger can<br />

benefit from a higher liability limit by making a special declaration at the latest at<br />

check-in & by paying a supplementary fee. Complaints on baggage: If the<br />

baggage is damaged, delayed, lost or destroyed, the passenger must write &<br />

complain to the air carrier as soon as possible. In the case of damage to checked<br />

baggage, the passenger must write & complain within 7 days, & in the case of<br />

delay within 21 days, in both cases from the date on which the baggage was<br />

placed at the passenger’s disposal. Liability of contracting & actual carriers: If<br />

the air carrier performing the flight is not the same as the contracting air carrier,<br />

the passenger has the right to address a complaint or to make a claim for<br />

damages against either. If the name or code of an air carrier is indicated on the<br />

ticket, that air carrier is the contracting air carrier. Time limit for action: Any<br />

action in court to claim damages must be brought within 2 yrs from the date of<br />

arrival of the aircraft, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have<br />

arrived. Basis for the information: <strong>The</strong> basis for the rules described above is the<br />

Montreal Convention of 28 May 1999, which is implemented in the Community<br />

by Regulation (EC) No. 2027/97 (as amended by Regulation (EC) No. 889/2002)<br />

and national legislation of the Member States.<br />

Pre-bookable champagne: For a special treat you can now pre-book<br />

champagne to enjoy during the flight.<br />

Reserved Seating (flights with Thomson Airways): To guarantee seats<br />

together, all passengers in your group must travel on the same booking<br />

reference. For Thomson Airways flights, you will have the opportunity to select<br />

your seat number up front. Once the seating charts for your flights are released,<br />

you will be able to choose from a selection of available seats.<br />

Reserved Seating (flights with other airlines): If you choose Reserved Seating<br />

and do not select your seats, or if you’re not flying with Thomson Airways and<br />

choose Reserved Seating, we will accommodate your party together. We will<br />

make every effort to seat your group on one side of the aisle, although we<br />

cannot guarantee this and you may be seated across the aisle. Reserved Seating<br />

may be unavailable on some flights.<br />

Seats with extra space: You can reserve seats with extra space for your journey.<br />

Some of these seats are located close to Emergency Exit doors, and some are<br />

situated behind a ‘bulkhead’ or dividing wall, where there’s extra space from not<br />

having a seat in front of you. For safety reasons, Emergency Exit seats are only<br />

available to passengers who are able bodied and of suitable size. You must have<br />

no medical conditions and, in the opinion of our cabin crew or check-in staff,<br />

have the strength and full mobility to open the Emergency Exit door. It is a Civil<br />

Aviation Authority requirement that only customers aged 14 yrs and over occupy<br />

these seats. Extension seatbelts cannot be provided on Emergency Exit rows.<br />

Only a limited number of seats with additional space are available.<br />

UK airport lounge access: This service can be pre-booked at the time of<br />

confirming your booking. Airport lounges may not be available at all UK airports<br />

airports, please check at the time of booking. This service is available on your<br />

return journey from Florida (SFB) airport, & at a selection of other overseas<br />

subject to availability & operational feasibility, dependent on the location, date &<br />

time of travel. We reserve the right to change or cancel these services without<br />

prior notification.<br />

guaranteed. Please note that the Premium Service Upgrade is in addition to the<br />

standard low, mid or high supplement. See the Flight pages for more details.<br />

Your Accommodation and Resort<br />

Accommodation Brochure Ratings: Ratings are based on our annual appraisals<br />

and customers’ views taken from the end-of-holiday Customer Satisfaction<br />

Questionnaires. Hotels and apartments are rated from ‘2’ for no-frills, good value<br />

accommodation to ‘5’ for more comfort and a wider range of facilities. <strong>The</strong>re may<br />

be some differences between accommodation that shares the same rating. This<br />

is where our plus rating can be a useful extra guide.<br />

Accommodation Options: Accommodation options are non-refundable once in<br />

resort if the option is no longer required.<br />

Adjacent rooms: Some room types are sold as adjacent rooms. <strong>The</strong>y will usually<br />

share some facilities such as an entrance or a bathroom and are available at<br />

A-Z Guide


selected accommodation at a small supplement. <strong>The</strong> facilities can vary so please<br />

check the individual hotel description. When booking, the room description will<br />

contain the word ADJ. By booking 1 of this room type you will receive 2 adjacent<br />

rooms. <strong>The</strong> full adult price is applicable for the minimum occupancies of both<br />

rooms. Child discounts therefore cannot be applied until the combined minimum<br />

occupancy has been reached. For example, the minimum occupancy for a twin<br />

plus an adjacent twin is 4. Where a specific adjacent room type is not available, it<br />

may still be possible to request 2 or more rooms together. However, any such<br />

requests cannot be guaranteed.<br />

Adult Properties: Adults hotels either displaying an adults logo or featured in<br />

the Adults brochure have been chosen because of the adult focus in terms of<br />

facilities and destination. Additionally customers who have stayed at these<br />

properties have a comparatively low ratio of children travelling with them. <strong>The</strong>re<br />

is no guarantee of the properties being childfree and these hotels may have<br />

children’s facilities within the complex. Exclusive for adults hotels have minimum<br />

customer ages of either 16 or 18. With each hotel we have endeavoured to<br />

ensure that the hotelier maintains a child free environment throughout the hotel.<br />

We also offer no incentives for children such as discounted prices or child<br />

friendly hotel facilities. Whilst every effort will be made to ensure an adult only<br />

environment we cannot legislate against children being booked as adults but<br />

you can be certain that every effort has been made to deter customers from<br />

doing so.<br />

Properties displaying a Freestyle logo on the page are part of our Freestyle<br />

programme. Thomson do not recommend Freestyle holidays for those under 18<br />

years of age. No person under 18 years of age will be allowed to travel<br />

independently. If you are 17 years of age at least one accompanying member of<br />

your party must be 18 years or over. <strong>The</strong> lead name in the booking must be 18<br />

years old and you must provide us with a verified letter of consent for you to<br />

travel from your parent or legal guardian. Please note that letter form<br />

accompanying passengers over the age of 18 will not be accepted.<br />

All Inclusive Hotels<br />

■ You may have to wear a wristband or carry ID to qualify for the full range of<br />

benefits. Under-18s should not expect to be served alcohol. In addition, local<br />

laws on the minimum age for alcohol consumption will apply.<br />

■ Times for free drinks, meals and snacks can vary. Your All Inclusive package<br />

may not include bottled mineral water and specific (e.g. imported or branded)<br />

drinks. You’ll need cash for extras such as excursions, telephone calls and safety<br />

deposit boxes.<br />

■ A la carte meals may not be included. Some restaurants require reservations<br />

and are subject to availability.<br />

■ Not all bars and restaurants operate on an All Inclusive basis. Cash bars may<br />

operate once All Inclusive bars close.<br />

■ You are usually charged for motorised sports and there are time limits or<br />

age/experience restrictions on some sporting activities. You may have to pay a<br />

deposit to hire equipment.<br />

■ Sessions per guest for some facilities will be limited.<br />

■ You’ll need to pay extra for items such as excursions, telephone calls and<br />

safety deposit boxes.<br />

■ Hotels can refuse to serve alcohol to guests who, in their judgement, are<br />

intoxicated. We and the hotels may confiscate bracelets/ID’s from guests who<br />

misbehave or abuse the All Inclusive benefits.<br />

■ All Inclusive packages end when you check out of your room, even if your<br />

flight does not leave until later that day. In some cases you can pay a fee to<br />

continue using the All Inclusive facilities.<br />

■ In the unlikely event that a delay to your return flight means you spend extra<br />

time in resort (not necessarily at your original accommodation), any refreshment<br />

supplied will be according to the airline’s instructions and not the board basis of<br />

the hotel you booked. For a full description of what’s included, see the individual<br />

hotel description.<br />

Arriving/Departing Your Accommodation: <strong>The</strong> ‘Holiday Length’ or ‘Number of<br />

Nights’ tells you the number of nights your room (whether in a hotel or<br />

apartment, on a tour or cruise) has been reserved for you. If your holiday flight<br />

departs at night and arrives in resort at night or in the early hours of the<br />

morning, your accommodation will be ready and waiting for you - this counts as<br />

your 1st night in the accommodation. If your flight departs early in the morning<br />

and you arrive at your accommodation before midday, your room may not<br />

be ready.<br />

Bed Sharing: In hotel rooms with just 3 single or 2 double beds, the 1st and<br />

2nd children must share a bed to qualify for the child price. Bed sharing is only<br />

allowed where the children’s combined ages do not exceed 11yrs. Where the<br />

children’s combined ages do exceed 11yrs, only 1 child can be accommodated in<br />

the room. Some hoteliers do not allow bed sharing.<br />

Building Work: From time to time, building work and its associated noise is<br />

unavoidable in a resort. We do not control such work, and we do not always<br />

receive advance notice of when it will begin. We will notify you as soon as<br />

possible if we think that building work will affect your holiday. If we consider the<br />

work will have a significant effect on your holiday, you will be entitled to exercise<br />

the options outlined in the section headed “If we change or cancel your holiday”.<br />

In some resorts the provision of roads, power and water supplies etc, does not<br />

always keep pace with the demands of rapid tourist development, so you may<br />

experience problems with, for example, plumbing or drainage. Roads and<br />

pathways in some countries may not be up to the standard found in the UK,<br />

therefore please be aware that some roads and paths may be uneven.<br />

Check in/out: On the last day of your holiday, you may have to leave your room<br />

by mid-morning or noon so it can be prepared for the next guests. If your flight<br />

departs on or after midnight, you will have to check out of your room by midday<br />

on the previous day. A courtesy room or apartment will usually be available,<br />

where you can change and leave your bags until departure time. At times,<br />

management may allow you to keep your room, but they are entitled to charge<br />

for this. Check-in time is usually 3-4pm. Depending on the arrival and departure<br />

times of your flights, you may miss a meal if you have booked all inclusive, half or<br />

full board and may not be entitled to items in the All Inclusive package or access<br />

to certain facilities.<br />

Deposits: If you’re staying in an apartment, you may be asked to pay a deposit<br />

in local currency on arrival. This is for, or towards, accidental loss of, or damage<br />

to, furnishings and unusual cleaning charges. It will be returned, less any<br />

appropriate charges, on departure.<br />

Excursions: We expressly reserve the right to prevent you from participating in<br />

the excursions we provide, whether pre-booked or purchased in resort, if, in<br />

the opinion of our staff or those of the excursion provider, you are either<br />

unsuited to undertake the excursion, or if you appear to be under the influence<br />

of drugs or alcohol. In these circumstances your sole remedy against us will be to<br />

obtain a refund of the cost of that excursion.<br />

Extra beds arrangements: Some twin rooms can take a 3rd or 4th bed - usually<br />

camp or folding beds - though they may limit space. Twin rooms with 4 beds<br />

may add bunk beds which are only big enough for children. If a 3rd or 4th adult<br />

shares a room they may be entitled to a price reduction, if shown in the<br />

supplements and reductions, even though 1st and 2nd adults still pay the<br />

standard room price. <strong>The</strong> number of beds in a room may equal the number of<br />

people in your party, but may be less than the total indicated on our invoice.<br />

Unoccupied beds are sometimes removed to allow you more space, even though<br />

you may have paid an extra accommodation charge. Rooms with 2 double beds<br />

are often unable to accommodate extra beds and it may be necessary to share<br />

to qualify for a reduction. Local French regulations do not recommend the use of<br />

top bunk beds by children under 6 years.<br />

Extra Local Charges: Some accommodation facilities, unless otherwise stated,<br />

may incur extra local charges. Where facilities such as sports, beauty treatments<br />

and tuition are included in your holiday price, these will carry a limit as to the<br />

number of sessions that can be taken. A la carte meals may not be included in<br />

your holiday price even if you have booked half board, full board or all inclusive.<br />

General Finishing Touches information: All pre-bookable accommodation<br />

Finishing Touches are offered subject to availability and vary by accommodation.<br />

Accommodation Finishing Touches must be booked up to 7 days before<br />

departure and must be paid for in full when you settle your Holiday Invoice (or<br />

Final Invoice, if any). All travel Finishing Touches are offered subject to availability.<br />

Infants: A hotel room or apartment/villa usually has room for 1 cot. If you need a<br />

cot, please order it when you book your holiday. Infants do not qualify for in-<br />

flight catering or meals in hotels.<br />

Interconnecting Rooms: Interconnecting rooms are 2 rooms that have a<br />

lockable connecting interior door. <strong>The</strong>se are available at selected accommodation<br />

at a small supplement - please check the individual hotel pages. When booking,<br />

the room description will contain the word CONNECTING. If you require<br />

interconnecting rooms you will need to book and pay for 2 of these rooms. <strong>The</strong><br />

supplement is still applicable if only 1 room is booked. <strong>The</strong> full adult price is<br />

applicable for the minimum occupancies of both rooms. Child discounts cannot<br />

be applied until the combined minimum occupancy has been reached. For<br />

example, a family of 2 adults and 3 children would pay the adult price for 2<br />

adults and the first 2 children, and then the discounted price for the 3rd child.<br />

Late checkout rooms: Late checkout rooms are normally available up to 6pm on<br />

the evening of departure. <strong>The</strong> coach is scheduled to give you at least 1hr for<br />

check-in at the airport. Only a limited number of rooms are available and they<br />

may not include the room you’ve had during your holiday. Rooms will be for the<br />

sole use of you and your party and will have beds and private bathroom or<br />

shower. Late checkout only covers the use of your room. On the last day in your<br />

accommodation, prior to late checkout, you may not be entitled to meals, items<br />

in the all inclusive package or access to certain facilities. Pre-booking is necessary<br />

to guarantee a room; allocation is on a first-come, first-served basis.<br />

Meal Arrangements: Main meals referred to in hotel descriptions are lunch and<br />

dinner. Meals are usually in the hotel’s main restaurant, the use of other<br />

restaurants (including à la carte) may incur a supplement, may be limited to a<br />

certain number of visits per stay and reservations may be required. Where a<br />

certain number of restaurants are stated, not all will necessarily be open at the<br />

same time. This may be due to maintenance work or because fewer guests are<br />

resident in the hotel at that time.<br />

Full board plus means continental breakfast, lunch and dinner with drinks<br />

included during meal times. Full board means continental breakfast, lunch and<br />

dinner. Half board means continental breakfast and dinner (or lunch, if you wish,<br />

at some hotels). Bed & Breakfast usually means continental breakfast. Infant<br />

meals are usually payable locally.<br />

Flexi-Dine: Subject to availability. Flexi-Dine gives you the opportunity to<br />

combine the pleasures of sampling local cuisine on some evenings, whilst<br />

enjoying the comfort of dining in your hotel in others. You can choose between 3<br />

and 5 days Half Board on a 7-night holiday, and 3, 7, 10 or 11 days Half Board<br />

on a 14-day holiday. Those staying on a self-catering board basis receive<br />

breakfast and an evening meal, the number depending on which option is<br />

selected. When you arrive, you must tell the hotel staff on which days you will<br />

dine in the hotel. In self-catering accommodation breakfasts and evening meals<br />

may have to be taken on the same day. If you arrive at your accommodation<br />

before 9pm, you must take 1 of your evening meals on your arrival day. <strong>The</strong><br />

Flexi-Dine price is calculated by multiplying the Half Board supplement at the<br />

bottom of accommodation price panels by the number of Half Board days on<br />

the Flexi-Dine option.<br />

Gala Meals: Many of our hotels and apartments host a special programme of<br />

entertainment and gala meals over the festive season. You’ll find more details in<br />

the accommodation section for each property. For those hotels based on bed &<br />

breakfast or room only, but where gala meals are included in the price, should a<br />

half or full board option be taken, the relevant supplement will not be charged<br />

for the appropriate nights. In the case of full board, the difference between half<br />

and full board will be deducted. At certain properties, half board may be bed &<br />

breakfast, with lunch on Christmas Day instead of an evening meal. Some public<br />

rooms may be closed to guests during gala celebrations.<br />

Dress Code: <strong>The</strong> formal dining rooms aboard all ships and most hotels and<br />

apartments require gentlemen to wear long trousers and shoes for dinner. At<br />

gala dinners at your hotel and on formal nights aboard ship, gentlemen are<br />

required to wear a shirt, tie and long trousers.<br />

On-site Facilities: On occasions, a number of facilities within a complex may be<br />

under separate management, and may close without notice. Where a complex<br />

features an on-site bar a certain level of noise must be expected. It is unlikely<br />

that these bars will observe licensing hours. Please note that there may be<br />

international school groups or conference delegates in some hotels in<br />

low season.<br />

Representative Service: Visiting times and contact telephone numbers will be<br />

on display at your accommodation. Visits may not be made to villas with pools,<br />

although our representatives can be easily reached by phone if required. Of<br />

course you may never need the services of our resort staff during your stay.<br />

Nonetheless, it’s good to know that should you have a problem or require<br />

assistance, help is at hand. In almost every instance, occasional holiday problems<br />

can be rectified quickly by notifying your representative or, if not immediately<br />

available, the receptionist at your complex. Any problems reported to reception<br />

which are not put right must be followed up with your representative and a<br />

guest comment form completed. You must complain promptly so we can<br />

investigate and put things right.<br />

Rollaway Beds: Rollaway beds are only advised for those aged 16 and under.<br />

Floor space may be reduced due to a rollaway bed being set up in the room. In<br />

rooms where maximum occupancy is reached, the cost of the rollaway is<br />

included in the price of your holiday. However, if a party of less than 5 request<br />

the use of a rollaway upon arrival in resort, this must be paid locally direct to<br />

the hotel.<br />

Single Rooms: Single rooms and twin bedded rooms for sole occupancy are<br />

available in most hotels, although demand for single rooms always exceeds<br />

availability. Single rooms are generally inferior in both size and location. If a single<br />

person occupies a double room they will usually be asked to pay a single<br />

supplement. Hotels price their rooms as doubles or family rooms and they do<br />

not reduce the rates if a single person occupies it. <strong>The</strong> costs to the hotel of<br />

providing the room - heating, lighting, cleaning etc. are the same regardless of<br />

how many people occupy that room. This also applies to self-catering<br />

accommodation where, for example, 3 people may choose to occupy<br />

accommodation priced for 4. Hotel design may mean that single rooms are<br />

smaller and sometimes less well appointed. While there is normally a<br />

supplement for these rooms, the overall cost will usually be less than when a<br />

single person occupies a double room. We do not make additional or excessive<br />

profits from these supplements. <strong>The</strong> prices we charge reflect the costs of under<br />

occupancy of the rooms contracted to us by the hotel.<br />

Taster Excursions: <strong>The</strong> Taster Excursions shown provide information on activities<br />

available in the specified resort. <strong>The</strong> guide is for information purposes only as<br />

these activities are not provided by, endorsed by or in any way connected with<br />

TUI <strong>Travel</strong> PLC.<br />

Transfers (coach, taxi and car rental): Must be booked by all members of the<br />

party. Holidays that have more than a 10% discount or are booked within 50<br />

days of departure may be subject to an additional charge for a coach transfer<br />

between the resort airport and your accommodation. Please ask your holiday<br />

advisor for details. Approximate transfer times do not allow for delays caused by<br />

waiting for incoming flights or local traffic conditions. Private transfer prices are<br />

for transport to and from the resort airport. In most instances, guests booking a<br />

private transfer will be transferred by mini-bus to/from their resort airport. Taxis<br />

will take a maximum of 3 adults or 2 adults and 2 children. Prices featured in our<br />

brochure price panels are per person, per return trip, based on 3 adults sharing a<br />

taxi. Luggage space may be limited and baby seats are not provided.<br />

Welcome Packs: <strong>The</strong> price quoted in the brochure normally provides for 3<br />

people. If there are more people in your party, please ask your holiday advisor for<br />

the relevant price. Contents may vary, but can include items such as coffee, tea,<br />

milk, sugar, crisps, fruit juice, bread, jam, washing up liquid and bottled water.<br />

Bronze, Silver and Gold fridge packs are available for villa holidays in Florida and<br />

will be delivered to your villa prior to arrival. <strong>The</strong> packs are designed to cater for<br />

parties for the beginning of a villa stay only and do not alleviate the need for<br />

further grocery shopping during the stay. Bronze packs are recommend for<br />

groups of 4, Silver for groups of 5-7, and Gold for groups of 8-10. Parties bigger<br />

than 10 are advised to purchase 2 fridge packs.<br />

Your View: Every customer travelling with us is asked to fill in a satisfaction<br />

questionnaire on their return flight, rating various aspects of their holiday<br />

experience as Excellent, Good, Fair or Poor. All questionnaires are analysed by an<br />

independent market research company. <strong>The</strong> results, where available, are<br />

published for each of the properties brochured. <strong>The</strong> scores featured are results<br />

for the last full season and are shown as the percentage of guests who rated<br />

their ‘holiday overall’, Accommodation, Location and Meals as good or excellent.<br />

Where properties do not carry a percentage this is explained by one of the<br />

following reasons:<br />

■ <strong>The</strong> resort or accommodation may be new for that season<br />

■ We may have received an unrepresentative sample of less than 20 responses<br />

■ <strong>The</strong> nature of the hotel has changed (e.g. it has been refurbished, is under<br />

new management or now caters for a different type of client)<br />

■ <strong>The</strong> full season scores may not be available at the time of publication.<br />

<strong>Travel</strong>ling by Sea<br />

Conditions of Carriage - Sea <strong>Travel</strong>: Sea carriers will have their own conditions<br />

of carriage with which you must comply. Your cruise is subject to the terms and<br />

provisions of the Athens Convention Relating to the Carriage of Passengers and<br />

their Luggage by Sea 1974 (“the Athens Convention”) and the London<br />

Convention of Limitation on Liability for Maritime Claims 1976 (“the London<br />

Convention”). A copy of each is available on request. <strong>The</strong> Athens Convention is<br />

expressly incorporated into these Conditions and any liability we may have for<br />

death or personal injury or for loss of or damage to luggage arising out of<br />

carriage by sea shall be determined accordingly. In most cases, the Athens<br />

Convention limits the carrier’s liability for death or personal injury or loss of or<br />

damage to luggage and makes special provision for valuables. It presumes that<br />

luggage has been delivered undamaged to the Passenger unless written notice is<br />

given to us (as carrier) either (i) in the case of obvious damage, before or at the<br />

time of leaving the ship or when the luggage is returned to the passenger, and<br />

(ii) in the case of damage which is not obvious or if the luggage, or part of it, is<br />

lost, within 15 days from the date of leaving the ship or from when the luggage<br />

was (or should have been) returned to the passenger. Any damages payable by<br />

us and/or the shipowner up to the limits provided by the Athens Convention<br />

shall be reduced by the maximum deductible specified in Article 8.4 of that<br />

Convention. In no circumstances shall we, or the shipowner, be liable in respect<br />

of consequential loss and damage, detention, delay or over-carriage, howsoever<br />

caused. Insofar as the cruise may be performed on a ship not owned by us, it is<br />

agreed that we shall at all times nevertheless be deemed a shipowner for the<br />

purposes of the London Convention, whether as amended or otherwise and as<br />

in force in any relevant jurisdiction from time to time, and so entitled to limit<br />

liability thereunder.<br />

Changes to Sailings and Itineraries: <strong>The</strong> sailing times shown in the brochure<br />

are correct at the time of going to print, but may be subject to change. We will<br />

notify you of any changes as soon as we are aware. Circumstances beyond our<br />

control such as bad weather may mean that we may have to change certain<br />

aspects of your cruise itineraries, either before the commencement of your<br />

cruise or during its voyage, and this may also have an impact on your time of<br />

arrival and departure in and from ports. At times the cruise operator may also<br />

need to substitute your cruise ship for another similar vassal. At times local<br />

conditions in certain destinations may mean that you only have a limited time to<br />

spend in that particular port, town or resort, or that we may have to bypass a<br />

port altogether.<br />

the brochure, prices are based on the number of adults sharing the standard<br />

type of apartment shown in the price panel (such as ‘studios for 2’ or<br />

‘apartments for 5’ or ‘villa for 6’). <strong>The</strong> number shown is the maximum number of<br />

adults allowed to share. If fewer adults share the apartment (such as 4 sharing<br />

the ‘apartment for 5’), each adult must pay an extra charge which is shown in<br />

the price panel under occupancy supplements per adult per night. Where your<br />

chosen number of adults does not appear, contact your travel agent for the most<br />

up to date prices. <strong>The</strong> ‘prices from’ are based on departures 1-13 May. If booking<br />

online, any applicable under-occupancy supplements will be calculated and<br />

added to your online holiday costing, dependent on the number of passengers<br />

travelling and the room type you select. Seasonal supplements (Low, Mid or<br />

High) are payable per night of your holiday. If, for example, your holiday departs<br />

in ‘Low’ season, but crosses into ‘Mid’ season, you will be charged a supplement<br />

Flight supplements: <strong>The</strong> basic cost of your holiday is based on departures with<br />

no additional flight costs. <strong>The</strong>se departures are shown as £0 supplement in the<br />

brochure flight tables. If you choose to fly from a different airport, on certain<br />

days or at certain times, you may have to pay a ‘flight supplement’ as shown on<br />

the flight table pages. Flights not listed in the brochure, but which become<br />

available may also attract extra charges, worked out in the same way. Some<br />

holidays are only available on flights with extra charges, either because the<br />

accommodation is available only on certain days of flying, or because onward<br />

travel arrangements are only available at certain times.<br />

may result in the loss or reduction of discounts;<br />

■ Your group can request its own transport to and from the airport at no<br />

additional charge (for groups of 35 or more), and special service from a<br />

representative at your accommodation with a private get together, greeting on<br />

your first day and discounts on resort excursions (for groups of 20 or more).<br />

To book your group’s holiday, either ask your holiday advisor to contact our<br />

Groups Department or, if you wish to book directly, call our Groups booking line<br />

for customers on 0871 971 0560. Calls cost 10p per minute at all times from BT<br />

landlines. Other operator networks may vary.<br />

Meal supplements in hotels: <strong>The</strong> standard meal arrangement for your holiday is<br />

shown in the brochure price panel or online. If you choose to add more meals,<br />

the extra cost for bed and breakfast, half or full board will also be shown. In<br />

some cases, you may be able to choose to take fewer meals, and that reduction<br />

will also be displayed.<br />

Pet Sitting with Animals at Home: Animals at Home provides pet sitting<br />

services, either at your home or at a host family, through its network of<br />

franchises across the UK. Thomson customers are entitled to a 10% discount on<br />

these services. Please quote reference ‘Tuitravel’ and your holiday/flight booking<br />

reference number to qualify for your discount. To discuss your needs and for<br />

more information, visit www.tuiuk.animalsathome.co.uk. Please note that the<br />

provision of pet care services is the sole responsibility of Animals at Home and<br />

that Thomson will not be liable for nor involved in the transaction between its<br />

customers and Animals at Home nor the provision of pet care services. All<br />

queries should be directed to Animals at Home.<br />

Reduced child prices: Reduced prices for 1st and 2nd children only apply to<br />

children sharing a hotel room or apartment with 2 full-fare-paying adults. If 1<br />

child qualifies for a free child place, a 2nd child sharing the same hotel room or<br />

apartment will pay the full 2nd child price. 4 adults sharing an apartment with 2<br />

or more bedrooms can bring 2 children at the 1st child price (1 may be a free<br />

child, if available). Children not sharing with at least 2 adults (except for single<br />

parent offers where applicable), 3rd and subsequent children pay the adult price<br />

and count as adults when the occupancy level is calculated. Deposits, flight,<br />

room, extra facility and board supplements and insurance premium must be paid<br />

in full for all children travelling at a reduced child price.<br />

Room Supplements: Supplements may be applicable for single rooms, double<br />

beds, extra beds and room upgrades. <strong>The</strong> price for these may vary through the<br />

season, depending on whether your booking falls within Low (L), Mid (M) or<br />

High (H) season. <strong>The</strong> dates that apply to low, mid and high season vary by<br />

resort. If a single person occupies a double room they will usually be asked to<br />

pay extra. This is because hotels tend to price all their rooms as doubles or<br />

family rooms and they do not reduce the rates if it is occupied by a single<br />

person. <strong>The</strong> costs to the hotel of providing the room are the same regardless of<br />

how many people occupy that room. Single rooms are limited in availability and<br />

may be smaller than double or family rooms, but are normally priced on the<br />

same basis, irrespective of design or size. This also applies to self-catering units<br />

where, for example, 3 people may choose to occupy accommodation priced for 4.<br />

We do not make additional or excessive profits from these supplements. <strong>The</strong><br />

prices we charge reflect the costs of occupancy of the rooms contracted to us by<br />

the hotel.<br />

Self-teach Language Courses: Linguaphone publishes and produces language<br />

learning material and other associated goods. Thomson customers are entitled to<br />

a 30% discount on the retail value of Linguaphone’s products. A valid discount<br />

code and booking reference number must be provided in order to claim your<br />

discount. Visit www.linguaphone.co.uk/partners/tuitravel for more information<br />

and terms and conditions. This agreement is between the customer and<br />

Linguaphone, Thomson will not be involved in any part of the transaction nor<br />

the provision of goods. All queries should be directed to Linguaphone.<br />

Supplements and Reductions: Prices are based on 2 adults sharing a standard<br />

room or cabin with facilities as listed. For villas and apartments prices are based<br />

on the number of adults sharing the property. Taxi transfer supplements are<br />

based on 3 people sharing a taxi.<br />

Supplement Resulting from Currently Unknown <strong>Travel</strong> Taxes and Costs: We<br />

are aware that the UK government is considering imposing a number of charges<br />

related to aviation which includes a replenishment charge for the Air <strong>Travel</strong> Trust<br />

Fund. Despite our expertise in travel, it is impossible for us to predict which new<br />

taxes governments may impose or which cost increases may arise due to world<br />

events. Naturally, the scale of these taxes or charges, the timing of their<br />

introduction and even the method of collection has not yet been decided and<br />

therefore it is not possible for us to include them in your holiday price at this<br />

time. If you have already booked by the time they are introduced and these<br />

charges create an overall increase in our costs then it may result in an increase in<br />

the price of your holiday by way of a surcharge.<br />

Weddings, Honeymoons Renewals of Vows: We offer weddings, honeymoons<br />

and renewal of vows to a wide range of destinations - see our Weddings,<br />

On Holiday with Children<br />

This section should be read in conjunction with our product information.<br />

Age ranges and restrictions:<br />

■ Age ranges are as follows: 2-12yrs inclusive in hotels unless otherwise stated<br />

in the hotel description; 2-16yrs inclusive in apartments and Florida.<br />

17yrs or under, at least 1 accompanying member of your party must be 18yrs or<br />

over, and this person must be the lead name on the booking.<br />

■ Owing to the nature of tours we regret we are unable to accept bookings for<br />

children under 12yrs.


■ Due to Spanish legislation, guests must be 16yrs or over to use spa facilities<br />

in Spain and the Canary Islands.<br />

Baby Essentials Packs: Available to book for all accommodation (may exclude<br />

some villas or particularly remote properties). How can one little person have so<br />

much luggage? Save 5% (excludes delivery costs) on baby essentials packs with<br />

our selected providers. Delivered direct to your accommodation, they include<br />

www.bebebel.com. TinyTotsAway is based in the UK and delivers to most<br />

www.TinyTotsAway.com/tuitraveluk. Please note that this agreement is between<br />

the customer and the supplier, TUI <strong>Travel</strong> UK & Ireland will not be involved in any<br />

part of the transaction or the provision of the products. All queries should be<br />

directed to the suppliers.<br />

Children’s Clubs Group sizes: Safety is paramount; we therefore work to a strict<br />

staff:child ratio. In the case of unforeseen circumstances such as illness, when 2<br />

staff members are not available, then we reserve the right to cancel or postpone<br />

activities. To meet UK Health & Safety legislation, and at busy times, we may<br />

need to limit the numbers in children’s clubs and attendance may have to be on<br />

a rota basis. This is to ensure the safety and well-being of the children in<br />

the club.<br />

Cots: We recommend that you bring your own travel cot as some hoteliers<br />

cannot guarantee that there will be a cot available on the date you arrive. Please<br />

bear in mind that no extra baggage allowance is given for cots, so you will have<br />

to pay an extra charge if your total luggage weight exceeds your limit. Hoteliers<br />

may charge for infant cots and food.<br />

Kidzone<br />

Age ranges: Our clubs are open to children aged 3-12yrs. Kidzone is split<br />

according to the following ages: 3-5yrs (Tots); 6-8yrs (Team); and 9-12yrs (Tribe).<br />

On some occasions activities may be combined; this will not interfere with either<br />

safety or enjoyment due to the enforced ratio restrictions at all times. Carers are<br />

welcome to attend. Please note that the Kidzone staff cannot accept<br />

responsibility for children who are not toilet trained.<br />

Availability: Only those clubs featuring a Kidzone logo meet the above<br />

specification. As we are constantly updating and reviewing Kidzone, identities<br />

and facilities may differ from those stated. Standards and facilities at hotel-run<br />

kids’ clubs may vary. You should therefore ensure that you are fully satisfied with<br />

the facilities and staff before enrolling your child. We are unable to take<br />

responsibility or guarantee that the standards at hotel-run clubs meet UK<br />

standards.<br />

Availability Limitations: Club activities will not be available until 1st May unless<br />

the club also runs in winter.<br />

Session times: All groups offer up to 2hrs of daytime activities, 5 times a week<br />

and 2hrs of evening activities up to 3 times per week. Some evening activities<br />

may incur a charge.<br />

<strong>Travel</strong> Advice<br />

For the most up to date information go to our website or ask your travel agent<br />

for further information on any travel restrictions, entry & stay requirements, visa<br />

& travel advice to your particular destination.<br />

Customs Information: A customs guide for travelers entering the UK can be<br />

obtained from the Customs and Excise National Advice Service on 0845 010<br />

9000 or at www.hmce.gov.uk.<br />

Inoculations: It is the responsibility of all passengers to ensure that prior to<br />

travel they have taken the necessary health precautions applicable to their<br />

chosen destination. Advice about destinations can change, therefore please<br />

consult with your doctor at least 2 months before your departure, as some<br />

treatments (e.g Malaria) should begin well in advace of travel. For bookings<br />

within 3 weeks of departure, please consult your doctor before booking your<br />

holiday. Other sources of information include the Department of Health’s free<br />

leaflet Health Advice for <strong>Travel</strong>lers (0800 555 777), your doctor, a specialist travel<br />

clinic or MASTA (Medical Advisory Services for <strong>Travel</strong>lers Abroad 0208 994 9874).<br />

Local taxes & visas: Some countries/islands make a charge on every visiting<br />

tourist. This charge has to be paid by each person, sometimes to the hotelier,<br />

sometimes at the local airport on arrival or departure. Because such charges are<br />

continually being introduced and the amount varies by destination, it is not<br />

possible to list here how much you should expect to pay.<br />

Customers travelling with infants may incur an additional bed tax for holidays in<br />

the Maldives. This is to be paid by the customer upon arrival at their destination<br />

(approx. $8 per infant).<br />

For information regarding visas to Egypt, please call the Egyptian Consulate on<br />

0207 235 9777 or visit www.egyptianconsulate.co.uk.<br />

If you are travelling to the USA, the US authorities have introduced a<br />

requirement for passengers travelling under the Visa Waiver Programme to<br />

register for Electronic <strong>Travel</strong> Authority. For additional specifics about the VWP<br />

please consult the VWP information on the U.S. Embassy London website.<br />

Passengers who have not applied for and received travel authorisation via ESTA<br />

prior to travel may be denied boarding, experience delayed processing or be<br />

denied admission at the U.S. port of entry. However, neither possession of a visa,<br />

nor meeting the basic requirements for travelling visa-free on the VWP,<br />

guarantees admission to the United States. As with most countries, the final<br />

determination of admissibility is made by immigration officials at the port of<br />

entry. If you are refused boarding or denied admission at the US port of entry<br />

you will still be subject to our cancellation charges in accordance with the terms<br />

of our contract with you. An ESTA application cannot be submitted using a post<br />

dated passport until the passport is valid. If a post dated passport has been<br />

issued which begins validity less than 72 hours prior to departure, customers are<br />

advised to travel and register for ESTA using their maiden name, as registering<br />

for ESTA less than 72 hours prior departure may mean authorisation to travel<br />

may not be granted.<br />

Local Laws: In some destinations, local laws and religious customs can lead to<br />

the withdrawal of certain facilities. In all Muslim countries visitors are reminded<br />

that during the month of Ramadan, local bars and restaurants (including hotel<br />

restaurants) change their opening hours so that staff can adapt their eating<br />

habits to the restrictions imposed upon them during daylight hours. Visitors may<br />

also be requested to refrain from eating, drinking and smoking in public areas<br />

during daylight hours. You should also be aware drinking and gambling ages vary<br />

by destination. USA drinking & gambling laws are very strict. You need to be 21<br />

years of age in order to be served and don’t be surprised if you get asked for<br />

proof of age (including a photograph) if you look under 30! To gamble, you must<br />

also be 21 years or older. In Sri Lanka, it is common during full moon holidays<br />

(Pooya Days) for hotels not to serve alcohol from hotel bars. In this case, it is<br />

usually permitted to consume alcohol in your rooms, but not to buy alcohol from<br />

any premises. In Aruba, India, Mexico and Venezuela, when elections are being<br />

held, then it is common for all licensed premises to be closed for the sale of<br />

alcohol (including the service of alcohol in all inclusive properties). In the<br />

Maldives, it is forbidden to import alcohol into the country, but alcohol is for sale<br />

in tourist resorts.<br />

Passports and Entry Requirements: For the latest details of any travel<br />

restrictions, entry and stay requirements, visa and travel advice to your particular<br />

destination, visit the Foreign Office website at www.fco.gov.uk/travel or call 0845<br />

850 2829 and visit the Passport Service website at www.ips.gov.uk for passport<br />

information before booking or travelling. Holders of non-UK passports should<br />

always check with their embassy, high commission or consulate before booking.<br />

Passport names and name changes: <strong>The</strong> name on the passport must match<br />

the name on the ticket, otherwise you may not be able to travel and insurances<br />

may be invalid. If someone in your party changes name after the booking is<br />

made, you must tell us immediately so we can issue the ticket in the new name.<br />

If you’ve already received the ticket, simply return it and we’ll reissue one in the<br />

correct name. (An amendment fee may be applicable).<br />

Passports and Minors: <strong>The</strong>re may be specific entry requirements applicable to<br />

minors (children under 18) relevant to the country you are visiting. In certain<br />

circumstances this may incur additional expenses and require separate/additional<br />

legal documentation such as an affidavit, executed by a notary public, where for<br />

example the minor is not accompanied by both parents. As these entry<br />

requirements vary for different countries you should always check with the<br />

relevant consulate/embassy of the country you are intending to travel to prior to<br />

booking. Failure to do so may result in you being refused entry/carriage.<br />

Special rules by destination or airline: Some countries and charter airlines<br />

have special rules about passports and visas. As visa requirements may change<br />

at any time, it is important to double check with the relevant consulate/embassy<br />

of the country you are intending to travel to prior to booking your holiday and<br />

again within 6 weeks of departure. Failure to do so may result in you being<br />

refused entry/carriage. Charter airlines are not permitted to carry certain<br />

nationals to and from their country of origin due to licensing law restrictions in<br />

place with overseas aviation authorities. <strong>The</strong> current licensing laws, as of 3rd July<br />

2006, do not allow airlines of TUI <strong>Travel</strong> to carry nationals of the following<br />

countries on their operating routes; Brazil, Cuba, Kenya, Maldives, Morocco.<br />

Egyptian nationals, with official residence in the UK, can travel on Inclusive<br />

Package Tour arrangements only. Indian and Turkish passport holders can travel<br />

on Inclusive Package Tour arrangements only. Please check with your<br />

embassy/consulate before booking. Failure to do so may result in you being<br />

refused entry/carriage. For travel to Goa, Kerala and Sri Lanka, holders of Indian,<br />

Pakistani, Sri Lankan, Nepalese and Bangladeshi passports are not permitted to<br />

travel on British Charter Flights. This travel restriction does not apply to<br />

Pakistani, Sri Lankan, Nepalese and Bangladeshi passport holders who have a<br />

spouse holding a foreign (non Indian) passport.<br />

Safety First: We take all reasonable care to make sure that the services which<br />

make up the holidays advertised by us are provided by efficient and reputable<br />

businesses. <strong>The</strong>se businesses should follow the local and national laws and<br />

regulations of the country where they are provided. However, overseas safety<br />

standards are generally lower than in the UK, for example, few hotels yet meet<br />

EC fire safety recommendations even in Europe. Usually we cannot make<br />

changes to facilities developed in accordance with these local standards. We will<br />

often be able to highlight specific risks in resort but this section also informs you<br />

of general issues overseas.<br />

Children’s Safety: We take advice from leading UK child safety organisations and<br />

accident prevention agencies to ensure that standards are as high as possible.<br />

Parents should check that they are happy with hotel clubs and children’s facilities,<br />

including playgrounds.<br />

Excursion Safety: We work with our excursion suppliers to ensure that they<br />

operate to appropriate safety standards. Whilst every care is taken with the<br />

activities we recommend, if you choose to use an alternative supplier, this will be<br />

at your own risk.<br />

Health and Hygiene: We promote good hygiene practices within hotels, but the<br />

hygiene standards, particularly in developing destinations, are generally much<br />

lower than in the UK. Extra care should be taken by pregnant women, infants<br />

and the elderly and it may be advisable to consult your GP before booking if you<br />

have any concerns.<br />

Language Assistance: In the event of guests requiring police or hospital<br />

assistance we will do our utmost to assist but we do not provide official<br />

translation/interpretation services.<br />

Mobility: Whilst our hotels are obliged to comply with local health and safety<br />

standards, and many offer ramps and specially adapted rooms, if you have<br />

particular concerns regarding your mobility, you are advised to contact us for<br />

information on the suitability of the accommodation you have in mind prior<br />

to booking.<br />

Scuba Diving: We strongly advise those planning on taking scuba training to<br />

have a full medical examination in resort (which may be at an extra cost) and to<br />

consult your GP before going on holiday. It is dangerous to fly less than 24 hours<br />

after scuba diving due to changes in pressure which may result in ‘the bends’ or<br />

even, in severe cases, paralysis. You must ensure you have adequate cover<br />

through your chosen insurer.<br />

Swimming Pool and Beach Safety: It is extremely unlikely that the pool or<br />

beach in your holiday accommodation will have a lifeguard. Children must always<br />

be accompanied by an adult in the pool, including children’s pools and<br />

surrounding areas including any beach. Familiarise yourself with any flag warning<br />

systems in operation on local beaches, and take into account local conditions.<br />

Always check swimming conditions such as undercurrents and tides.<br />

Special Needs: Let our Special Assistance Team know in advance if you require<br />

any special arrangements. Wheelchair assistance must be pre-booked with your<br />

registered disabled number or a letter from your doctor. If you fail to pre-book<br />

your wheelchair assistance, we reserve the right to refuse travel. If the extent of<br />

your disability is such that you cannot use the coach transfer between your<br />

resort airport and accommodation, then taxi transfers can be prebooked at a<br />

charge. If this option does not appear available at your accommodation, our<br />

Special Assistance Team can find out prices of taxis for you. Facilities for<br />

customers with special needs vary from hotel to hotel.<br />

Special requests: We will always do our best to meet your requirements BUT<br />

NO GUARANTEE IS GIVEN as this does not form part of your holiday contract.<br />

Weather: Florida, the Caribbean and Mexico are occasionally affected by tropical<br />

storms and hurricanes June-November. It is impossible to predict their path or<br />

duration more than 3 to 4 days in advance, often less. South East Asia may be<br />

affected by a monsoon season, typically May-Sep. If a storm is forecast for one<br />

of our holiday destinations we monitor all activity through various websites and<br />

information received from local and international experts. We follow the advice of<br />

the FCO and work with the Federation of Tour Operators in resort to ensure that<br />

customer safety is foremost if there is hurricane activity during your holiday.<br />

Data Protection Policy: To ensure that your holiday runs smoothly, we (and your<br />

travel agent, if you use one) need to use information such as your name and<br />

address, special needs, dietary requirements, etc. We will apply appropriate<br />

security measures to protect this data. However, we must pass it to suppliers of<br />

your travel arrangements, including airlines, hotels and transport companies. We<br />

may also supply it to security or credit checking companies, and to public<br />

authorities such as customs and immigration. If your holiday is outside the<br />

European Economic Area (EEA), controls on data protection in your destination<br />

may not be as strict as in the UK. We will only pass data, including sensitive<br />

information regarding disabilities or dietary and religious requirements, to people<br />

responsible for your travel arrangements. If we cannot pass this information to<br />

the relevant suppliers, in the EEA or elsewhere, we cannot provide your booking.<br />

When you make this booking, you consent to this information being passed to<br />

the relevant people. Information held by your travel agent is subject to that<br />

Sustainable Tourism<br />

Blue Flag: Many of the beaches in the resorts featured in this brochure have<br />

been awarded a Blue Flag. <strong>The</strong> programme, run by the Foundation for<br />

Environmental Education, awards these to beaches and marinas that meet its<br />

high standards of hygiene, cleanliness, safety and environmental management.<br />

For more information, see www.blueflag.org.<br />

Born Free Foundation: Thomson Airways supports Born Free. <strong>The</strong> airline has<br />

raised over £2.5 million for the wildlife charity since 1995, through in-flight coin<br />

collections and staff fundraising. <strong>The</strong> funding has provided vital support for a<br />

wide range of Born Free projects, including orphan polar bear rehabilitation in<br />

Canada, a wildlife ambulance in Scotland, an elephant orphanage in Sri Lanka, a<br />

chimpanzee sanctuary in Uganda, elephant relocation in Kenya, and basking<br />

shark conservation in UK waters. For more information on the work of the Born<br />

Free Foundation, visit www.bornfree.org.uk.<br />

Family Holiday Association: Thomson supports the Family Holiday Association,<br />

a UK charity helping families take a much-needed holiday they would otherwise<br />

be unable to afford. Many Thomson employees run the London Marathon to<br />

raise money for this charity, and you can donate by giving your loose change on<br />

your flight. To find out more, visit www.fhaonline.org.uk.<br />

Sustainable Aviation: We all know flying impacts the environment. We’re busy<br />

changing the way we fly to save fuel and reduce emissions. We’re also part of<br />

Sustainable Aviation, a UK initiative bringing together airlines, airport operators,<br />

aircraft and engine manufacturers and air traffic management providers, which<br />

seeks to minimise the impact of flying on the environment and society. For more<br />

information, visit www.sustainableaviation.co.uk.<br />

Sustainable Hotels: We’re following the <strong>Travel</strong>ife guidelines, an independent<br />

scheme supported by the European Union and the Federation of Tour Operators<br />

to make sure hotels look after the environment, their employees and local<br />

communities. <strong>Travel</strong>ife Bronze businesses have policies in place to reduce their<br />

environmental impacts and treat people fairly. <strong>Travel</strong>ife Silver businesses go<br />

further than the bronze awardees, actively seeking ways to benefit the local<br />

community and environment. <strong>Travel</strong>ife Gold businesses encourage others to get<br />

involved in sustainability, seek continual improvements and communicate their<br />

progress. To find out more about the <strong>Travel</strong>ife system, visit www.its4travel.com.<br />

World Care Fund: Every time you book a holiday with us you can make a<br />

donation to our World Care Fund. Every penny goes to our partners, <strong>The</strong> <strong>Travel</strong><br />

Foundation and ClimateCare, who run projects that support local people in<br />

holiday destinations and tackle climate change. When you book, we’ll ask for a<br />

donation of £1 per passenger (50p for children). We’ll match your donation<br />

pound for pound, so together we’ll make an even bigger difference. Donations to<br />

the World Care Fund are voluntary, and you can opt out if you wish. You’ll find<br />

more information on these projects at www.thomson.co.uk/environment. To find<br />

out more about our partners, visit www.thetravelfoundation.org.uk and<br />

Finishing Touches<br />

Holiday Insurance<br />

It’s essential you and your family have the<br />

protection you need in case the unexpected<br />

happens. As with all insurance policies,<br />

terms, conditions, exclusions and limitations<br />

apply. You need to make sure the policy is<br />

right for you. For more information, ask<br />

about travel insurance when you book<br />

your holiday.<br />

Premium Upgrades<br />

For more legroom, better entertainment<br />

and complimentary drinks, upgrade to<br />

Premium on our long haul fl ights. You get<br />

more space – at least 36 inches to yourself<br />

– plus a 9-inch seatback TV that you can<br />

play, pause and rewind. On the food front,<br />

you’ll be served a 4-course meal. Drinks are<br />

included, too.*<br />

*Excluding Champagne<br />

Excursions<br />

Whether you want a sunset catamaran, a<br />

hot-air balloon ride or just tickets to the<br />

local waterpark, get it sorted before you go.<br />

Foreign Currency<br />

Make life easier by ordering<br />

commission-free currency and travellers<br />

cheques at a Thomson shop. We’re on most<br />

major high streets so you’ll probably fi nd<br />

popping in to see us more convenient than<br />

queuing up at a busy airport before your<br />

fl ight. It’s cheaper, too – we offer better<br />

rates than you get at the airport.<br />

Seats With Extra Space<br />

Next to an exit or by a bulkhead, these are<br />

the seats that everyone wants. <strong>The</strong>re aren’t<br />

many so get in there quick.<br />

in the business so you’re guaranteed top<br />

the best theme parks, shows and<br />

waterparks. Not only will it save you time,<br />

it could actually save you some money, too.<br />

Day-before Check-in<br />

Make life easier still by checking in early - a<br />

whole day early. It’s free at Gatwick and<br />

Manchester and you can just turn up. You’ll<br />

need to pre-book at Birmingham though,<br />

and there’s a small charge.<br />

Room & Board Upgrades<br />

A sea view. A suite. A water villa, maybe.<br />

Splash out on a room that’s a little less<br />

ordinary. Plus, you can let someone else<br />

take care of lunch and dinner for a change<br />

by choosing half or full board. For the full<br />

works, go All Inclusive.<br />
