Been on a Mark Warner family hol recently?

[sarahdarcy]

Hello, was thinking of booking a Mark Warner family holiday but a lot of the reviews I have found blast MW for cutting costs so much that the holiday experience is no longer the great package it used to be. By all account they once offered a fantastic holiday experience but cost pressures have changed all that and the package is no longer to such a high standard ((e.g. they are mixing up the 18-30 resorts with family ones in order to save money- net result is that families are being kept awake at night etc). They are still pretty expensive so I wanted to know if anyone has taken a family holiday with them recently? I'm looking at their resort in Kos? Thank you.

Hi

We went in June - to the one on mainland Greece. And had a FAB time.

I read the reviews too and think that MW have perhaps gone about their changes the wrong way, but if you've never been on a MW holiday and want to go somewhere with reliable childcare, things to do if you want it, and 100% child friendly, then go for it. I also think the Kos one sounds fab.

Re: 18-30 mix. How many 18-30 year olds do you know who would pay those prices, to go somewhere with kids around, not Ibiza??? That's not to say there wasn't some noise in the evenings, but it wasn't ALL night, was mainly the 15-16 year olds away with their families so had mum and dad to reign them in eventually.

If you can get a good deal (we booked last-second and got it under half price). Then go for it!

Thanks for getting back to me....and for the last minute tip. The holidays are expensive but at half price I won't even be disappointed if the weather is bad...which it may be mid to late October.
