...i have just returned 29/7/06 from a weeks holiday in this 4 star hotel in the purpose built resort /holiday village at elenite ,which consists of one other 3 star hotel and some apartments .it is set in its own bay on a beautiful little beach ,with plenty of watersports to do .I went on an all inclusive basis. This really is a lovely setting and is great for the children and families .also has its own water park but this has to be paid for .You can catch a bus to the near by sunny beach resort which is a lively ,busy noisy place very built up like benidorm but great for an evening out ,and like everywhere in bulgaria very cheap i.e 50p for a pint of beer ,and great markets for buying all types of goods .The only downside to this holiday was that the people are not very friendly but for them tourism is a very new thing so I am sure...

...Hyde Park used to be a royal hunting ground, was once a venue for duels, executions and horse racing, and even became a giant potato field during WWII. It is now a place of fresh air, spring colour and lazy sunbathers. With 340 acres of green space, Hyde Park has plenty to offer with a variety of attractions, formal gardens and spacious woodlands.

Despite its heavy use, the Park manages to convey an air of rural tranquillity much valued by both tourists... Read review

...Firstly my general rule of thumb about going on holiday is, when choosing a destination it must be somewhere I have not been before, but Acapulco is somewhere I would return to in a heartbeat. It has to be one of the best holidays I have had in a long time. Why? I hear you ask. We booked about 6 weeks before we went so not exactly last minute, but not ages in advance and paid around £750 each for all inclusive 4 star hotel for two weeks. All the hotels are arranged around the bay along a long road called La Costera, and many are actually on the beach. The hotel was fabulous, on the beach and the staff were great, you didnt even have to get out of your sunlounger to go to the bar, the waiters came down on to the beach and delivered your drinks to you dripping with ice. Well you need to keep cool in 47C heat. Before... Read review
