Rates

Gold/red season (the times available to us) is all year, excluding Christmas, New Year, Easter, Holy Week and Thanksgiving weeks.

High season is mid December to 24th April and July/August, low season is all other times.

I have put the rates on in US dollars so it can work to your advantage because of the flucuating pound.

Your 4 or 5 star luxury accomodation (for the unit, not per person) is only $490 (Sunset Lagoon) or $590 (Royal Sunset) for an Executive Studio per week

You then only pay your 'All Inclusive' supplement per person, (see complex details for what your 'All Inclusive' covers).

All inclusive rates per week:

Sunset Lagoon

Adult (over 12 yrs) = $384.50 (roughly £190) (high season)

Adult (over 12 yrs) = $314.50 (roughly £165) (low season)

Child (5 - 12yrs) = $229.50 (roughly £115)
either season

Royal Sunset

Adult (over 12 yrs) = $429.50 (roughly £230) (high season)

Adult (over 12 yrs) = $349.50 (roughly £195) (low season)

Child (5 - 12yrs) = $229.50 (roughly £115)
either season, either resort

So divide the units price of $490/$590 by how many people are using the accomodation, add the "All Inclusive" cost per person, and that gives you the cost of your holiday each.

This is superb value for money and as the food is excellent and the drinks flow freely you can't fail but have a good time.
