Got it to do MM. We've tended to just go out 5-10 days at a time this year but managed to get out 4 times, hubby on his way back home tonight, sold one of caravans.
We've got Weds-Sun in Nov and Sat till Fri in Jan. Hubby staying on an extra week.

I've just gut back after 4 days away. Rained (a lot Thu night , Friday morning) then some big showers Friday day and Saturday am but after that its been dry. It was also EXTREMELY windy around Puerto Colon/LC area especially mid/late afternoon but wasn't due to last. Even saw a rainbow yesterday which lasted about an hour. Enjoy your break. We're back December.

I leave at the end of the month for Tenerife and quite frankly am more than a bit concerned as they've said that the UK is now on a severe alert for attacks. You just don't know where they will attack next. We were in Edinburgh yesterday and I must admit we were a bit wary, but what can you do, stay at home? It's just too scary!

Hope you didn't have to get back off like we did and change planes, some technical problem. An hour and a half delayed, an hour late getting into Tenerife.
Delayed coming back too. Bus took first lot of passengers to a Thomas Cook flight instead of Thomsons. Was an hour late getting back and took nearly 5 hours.

I am keeping an eye on them they took a big jump this week last week it was around £125 for dates we checked. We have provisionally booked a hotel in London for May but having second thoughts with everything that's going on will decide at start of year what we are doing.

Hi AJ I take it then that you wont be out from 12th Jan to 28th as we have booked for then . Been quite wary of booking again for Jan. , we were going to wait and see how weather was holding up and then just go but with all the flight companies cancelling Egypt as a destination , its a bit dodgy giving that a lot of folk have already re booked for Tenerife.With the hiked up prices for the hotels already the companies are obviously thinking that too.

We had 2 days of Calima with v strong winds followed by a bit of rain on Sunday morning but since then it has been sunny and v warm. Looks to be settled for the next week at least hopefully. That hotel in San Blas looks lovely. We were originally looking at the resedential properties in San Blas Residencia but then we found Playa de San Juan. We emigrated to PSJ on Nov 2nd after retiring early: the morning rain I mentioned has been the only rain where we are for 2 months. Hope you have a great holiday when you get here.

Surprisingly March from Manchester- Tenerife is very reasonable ( £250 each daytime both ways ) and for September we decided on Villa Cortes has a package when you consider costs of flights at that time of year. 2 weeks cost me £2200 for the two of us B&B which considering is ranked No2 is pretty good. We've done SC and stayed at the Med Palace ( ***** hole sadly ) just though Europe Villa Cortes would be a little special for a change. Yes we could go Long Haul for a similar amount when you take into consideration spending money, but I can't be bothered with Long Haul anymore. Tenerife is my limit now

Is it cheaper booking through a search engine provider, I thought it may cost a little more. I thought it was a very good price for this time of year.

Yes I'll look at Skycanner over the weekend and see for comparison. Incidentally we have just had to move our two week stay at Europe Villa Cortes with Monarch as well due to our daughter announcing she is expecting on or around September when we were due to fly out. So we rang Monarch and managed to change the booking at a cost of just £35 each and with us travelling October to the same place our holiday was reduced by £300. RESULT.

We had a Fortnight there a few Years ago. Really well placed for Us.

As with most Spanish Hotels the entry Hall is impressive. Rooms faced the pool and Safari Centre but noise is well away

We felt the rooms were small but smart enough.

Our only real moan was the time it took to book in, then out.

Staff away from Reception were usually pleasant enough too

The Bitacora on the other side of the road is a Sister Hotel, so = more choices.

Enjoy Your Break. :tiphat:
