Self Catering Costs More for Families

Self Catering Costs More for Families

I was reading Darren Cronian’s Travel Rant’s blog  ( http://www.travel-rants.com/2009/01/31/families-pay-more-for-self-catering-package-holidays/ ) the other day and what I was seeing made my eyes bulge.  I couldn’t quite believe it so I had to check for myself.   Yes it was true.

If you are looking for self catering accommodation from most of the big players it can cost MORE to book 2 adults and 2 children than 4 adults only.  This is not always true it has to be said.  In fact I tried a few different booking and the price was comparable or slightly more for 4 adults,  I was about to give up when I found this:

Thomas Cook and Thomson Guilty

On Thomson,  Two weeks in August on Corfu at the Olga Apartment ?1,956 for 4 adults and ?2,197 for 2 adults and 2 children – almost ?250 more.  However to weeks in  the Olympian Village would be the same price for both groups.

On  Thomas Cook, two weeks in August on Corfu  at Kokinos apartments ?1,184 for 4 adults and a whopping ?1470 for 2 adults and 2  children.  A full ?286 more.    I found more case of this in Thomas Cook searches than Thomson.

Going on holiday as a family is expensive enough without adding insult to injury.

Try booking all adults

When I used a price comparison engine like Directline Holidays then it helped to eliminate this problem by finding the cheapest options for your party.  This just goes to show , once you have settled on your resort and accommodation, that you should try both options when you have children, to see which come us the cheapest.  This should take only a couple of moments and you could save quite a bundle.    Even if you are using a travel agent then insist they double check with other combinations.  Alternatively look for operators and accommodation that are offering free child places,  although I usually find that  I am not keen on the accommodation on offer.  Reputable travel agents should be prepared to do this for you.

Why is a party of all Adults Cheaper?

The explanation for this phenomenon lies on the surcharges for under occupancy on accommodation (measured by full fee paying adults).  This varies from operator to operator and accommodation to accommodation.  The tour operators say they aim to return the cheapest price possible.  You can argue that the holiday with children might be no cheaper:  but there can be no ground for it being more expensive. The tour operators should sort out their booking systems.

Note also that hotel rooms are also costed on the basis of occupancy by two adults so if you tried to book two rooms for a family of four, rather than squeezing into one, it could also work out more expensive on packages than going with the four adults options.  It is probably worth checking.

From the Thomas Cook help pages:

“Can I book a child as an adult, if the holiday works out cheaper?

It is usually possible to book a child as an adult, as there may be occasions when the total holiday cost will be lower when booked this way. However, this may mean that any child booked as an adult may not be able to take advantage of some bookable childrens’ facilities / clubs at your accommodation.”

I think this is also a bit disingenuous, as frankly I cannot see the staff who run these facilities at the resorts either checking or turning you away.  In the unlikely event they did then I am sure that escalating the issue would resolve it in the name of customer satisfaction.

What to do to get the cheapest holiday

So to summarise either:  use a holiday supermarket, like Directline Holidays;  check all combinations of adults and children to find the cheapest (or get your travel agent to do it for you); or ensure you are taking advantage of free or reduced childrens’ fares.

The Best Places to Stay in Orlando Florida

The Best Places to Stay in Orlando Florida

Orlando Florida has seven distinct areas that vacationers can use as a home base for visiting the many theme parks and recreational spots in the county. Making a choice of where to stay can be quite a daunting task, so here are some tips that may help you choose the optimum lodging that will suit your vacation needs (and budget) during your stay in the world’s family entertainment capital.
South of Disney World (Kissimmee area – Highway 192)
The historic town of Kissimmee has been a well-known destination for many tourists visiting Orlando. With its numerous restaurants, bed & breakfasts, vacation condos, golf courses, and family attractions, many vacationers consider this area an excellent one for finding lodging. Hotel prices here are less expensive when compared to hotels in the other areas. However, many of the structures are aging as most were built in the late 70’s. Few of the hotels here are connected with national chains.
North of Disney World
Also known as the Lake Buena Vista area, this is the newest location for places to stay in Orlando County and is managed by the Walt Disney Corporation. The hotels here were built starting in the early 1990’s to the present and are mostly associated with the national hotel chains. The Lake Buena Vista area hosts great shopping and dining within a few miles radius.
Disney World’s Resort Properties
For Disney aficionados, the resort itself is would probably be the best option for a good hotel. By definition, it will be closest to Disney World attractions and the free shuttle service to the parks runs at least every half hour. All Disney World hotels are managed to the highest standards, so there is a high probability for an excellent stay. On the downside, these hotel rooms only allow up to four people to a single room and the cost compared to hotels outside Disney World confines can be almost double. There is always a price to be paid for location and convenience.
Universal Studios Area
While there are also some good options for lodging in the Universal Studios area, there are not nearly as many choices as other areas of Orlando County. The lack of competition results in prices that are not really that attractive.
Downtown Orlando
An Orlando vacation means visiting the theme parks and beautiful attractions that this region has to offer. Most likely, you will not enjoy the traffic hassles of long trips from downtown to the theme parks – not to mention the time that you will be wasting traveling thirty minutes or more to and from Disney World each day. There are just too many good alternatives to staying downtown.
Orlando County Convention Center Area
Only a few minutes from SeaWorld, this area can be a good choice for those who will be going primarily to that park. However, the prices here are a little more expensive while the amenities offered by the hotels are mostly geared for business travelers than for families. This area is a natural choice for those combining business with a vacation.
SeaWorld (International Drive) Area
The International Drive area near SeaWorld is our favorite area to stay in when vacationing with young children. The number of quality “villa resorts” in the area is the reason. For the same price as an upscale hotel room, you can be in a two bedroom villa with full kitchen, living room, whirlpool bath and screened-in veranda. These resorts have lakes, pools, activity centers and other amenities that children (and adults) love. You will be especially appreciative of these resorts if you have some non-park days on your itinerary.
The Greater Orlando area offers a large variety of hotel and lodging options. By reviewing the different choices described in this article, you will be well on your way to making the right decision for a great Orlando vacation!
