Hello forum members.

Looking for a bit of help with a Thomson holiday destination. The enemy has received £900 worth of Thomson vouchers through work and we're going to try and make it stretch to a last minute 1 week all inclusive holiday. Obviously 900 isn't going to have us sitting atop of the Marina Bay Sands so I'm looking at short haul and cheap.

With that in mind has anyone been on a Thomson Holiday in Europe that ticks the following boxes?

- Minimal / No outlets to buy a full English for 2 Euros.
- As above but replace breakfast with red top papers
- Not overly crowded, I'm 33, I like to enjoy my alcoholism in peace.
- 24 hour bar, I'm 33 not dead.
- Edible food onsite, half decent eateries nearby.
- A pool that smells more of chlorine than urine.

Alot to ask for with 900 notes but I'm sure you call all dig out those gems.

Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

You might find that 450 each is a bit light this time of year, what with schools hols and the inevitable price increases, but out side of these times it should be quite easy.

I've been to Greece a few times in the past few years, Corfu, kos, Crete. My most recent excursion to Crete was with Thomson from Gatwick to Louis Creta hotel, cost us 430 each and this was all inc (and included bags and transfers) but that was mid May. It was fine, good pools on the beach, food good as was beer n wine. I've also been to the Carolina Mare in Crete, even better (nicer beach)

Shop around on Thomson site, you may have to wait till later in the year when schools are back to get the right deal but that part of the world is still pleasant sept/October.
I was in southern Spain, Almeria (roc tropical hotel) end sept last year, still hot, all inc was about 470 each if I recall

Nice one mate some good stuff to go on there, maybe September would be a better bet.

Not completely adverse to chucking a bit of money in if needs be 🤔

Menorca is nice in September. Nicest of the Balearics in my view.
