We went in Feb/march 2008. £300 each for return flight with Virgin by way of their after xmas sale, a five bed villa from www.direct-holidayvillas.com £275 a week, with free pool heat which was needed. A hire car from hertz.com, which was cheaper than using hertz.co.uk for some reason. All you will ever need to know is here www.thedibb.co.uk/forums

Try Travel City Direct (now part of the Virgin empire, so they use proper aircraft these days).
