Spent the week over there got back at midnight last night.
I got what i thought was a great deal on all inclusive.

I have never seen so many scum british in all my life. Hotel i found out was nicknamed the Jungle. No wonder police were never away from the place.

Weather was great though, back bronzed & blonde

Scum

Know what you mean, and I dont consider myself anything special but its anazing the amount of football shirts, tattoos, hoopy earrings, shaven heads etc you see if you go somewhere like that, I take people as I find them and most are alright but it does make me wonder whether the British go all out to look and act as common as possible. My mum and dad went on an all inclusive and were amazed a the general obnoxious British tourist drinking all day, oredering Burger and Chips from which they would eat 2 chips and leave only to return half an hour later for more beer and more chips, luckily though my dad said the salad bar was untouched, the funny thing is that the holiday though it wasnt the Maldives wasnt cheap, so these chavvy families straight off the reservation manage a 3 or 4 grand family holiday ?

The alternative is however whenever you go around any national trust place is families with Berghaus fleeces, women with short hair, baby in a Papoose all wearing sandals that wont say boo to a Goose.

I suggest Fuerteventura, or Corralejo to be exact.

Went there with my girlfriend last week, and had a really nice, relaxing holiday. The beach was empty (literally), but you could get a cab into town for 3 euros, where there were plenty of pubs/bars, but mostly full of couples with the odd non-disruptive group.

I highly recommend it, and will no-doubt be going back if we want another 'budget' holiday.

Why spend money when you dont have too ???

I have two kids, one that drinks juice & water like its going out of fashion. The other just a baby. Drink is included in the package so my oldest boy can run around & drink what ever soft drink takes his fancy. Instead of coming asking for money every ten minutes.

Your comments are unjustified. Yet another ***** that see Chav in everything modern society does. Maybe you should take stock of your own life before disregarding others.

You're the *****, you went all inclusive! What type of people do you think they attract?

You don't have to try and justify it to me

Ok your right. I am wrong. Strange that i am looking to book a holiday in the Maldives for late August & thats all inclusive. I wonder what kind of people that attracts.

expedia.co.uk and get something nice


i could not stand some all in package from the local dawson and sanderson

we used expedia twice last year and had no real problems, apart from walking out of an italian airport and not knowing WTF to do or any italian so we could ask somebody

jump in at the deep end, its the only way, suprising how much you pick up when your sinking

Sandals have a family version called Beaches which I think is still inclusive and you're unlikely to get chavs.

Yep, you do......... usually the Chav 5 star all inclusive ones (they aren't really 5 star, just called that to pull the Chavs in)....
