We went to Iberotel Redsina last year Sharm el Sheikh bloody tempted to go back FANTASTIC 👍

Palm Royale Resort Hurghada and Savoy hotel Sharm el Sheikh. We've stayed at the Palm Royale 17 times so far (twice a year for two weeks, apart from a one week stay)) and another two weeks coming up. Haven't stayed at the Savoy as yet but friends of ours who we know from the Palm Royale have highly recommended it. It's right on Soho Square.

Hoping to do the train across Canada in September. Plus a trip to Vancouver Island to see my old work buddy. Should be out there for the best part of 4 weeks.

Off for a long weekend in Kersey, Suffolk at the end of March to celebrate the completion of my wife’s cancer treatment.

Hi we are off to Dubai 17th February for 7 nights Riu hotel Deira island. Me my other half and our 4 year old son. Supposed to be a good hotel if you have kids . Dubai not really my cup of tea but mrs has always wanted to go . So had a compromise and give it a go for a week not 2 . Although looking forward to seeing the mall aquarium and going up the worlds  tallest building raj kalifa is it? May try and book a fishing trip . Anyone on here fished here before?

I like Bordeaux, would like to get the night ferry to St Malo and have a few nights in hotels in that area. However the thought of travelling no longer appeals much, just as soon have breaks in easy to reach places closer to home. Also can't see much point in just being a tourist

We usually get the night ferry to St Malo, then the whole day to ride down to where we will stay, we then chose different places each day and ride out to them, get to see the lovely scenery, and lots of stops for food , cake and coffees.

don’t bother with UK destinations I need sun 🌞 

 

It  appears that the majority of posters never read that bit.  When do you think that you would like to go away.  We've been to most places. I quite like Costa Adeji Tenerife or Funchal Maderia. Various cruises. But everyone is different in what they like. I worked with a bloke who loved America and he loved to drive.  He wanted to drive at least 3000 miles.   If he hadn't driven the 3000 miles he'd drive round the car park a few times... odd bloke. There was a mate who worked very hard and worked all sorts of shifts. He holidayed to an all inclusive on Lansarote. He never went out of the hotel site.  He just wanted to laze in the sun. He didn't want to talk to anyone, he wasn't interested in hotel entertainment.  Total relaxation.   One holiday we went on there was a couple who had been to the same hotel room for 12 years.  He and his Mrs just sat under a parasol and read books.  I asked him where the bus stop was to go into town. He said that he didn't know because they never been into the local town.!  So what do you want from your holiday.? Is it just for you and the Mrs or do you want to take the kids with you.?

If you mean the "Rocky Mountaineer", I can thoroughly recommend it.

We went from Jasper to Vancouver, Gold Leaf service, and also went to Vancouver Island so that we could visit Butchart Gardens. I'm no gardener (my wife is), but even I was impressed.
