Badger holiday discussion

Bookings for the villas were done by around March/April last year I think but you don't need to give a definate at that time if the villa holds more people than are confirmed.

DarloJo · Post by **DarloJo** » Sun Jan 22, 2006 10:47 pm

We booked it about April time last year I think. But if we do go for one big villa, we'll probably just book it using the people who are definite, then work out the cost depending on how many people go after that.

The only thing is that the cost of the flights will go up... But there's no reason you couldn't come along if you don't know til then, it shouldn't be a problem

Edit: I didn't see Batesy's post

Thats true, but I'm not going shoe shopping with you again if I'm ill. That day in Torremelinos you took me to about 100 shoe shops

Basic explaination is that they're my friends.
We usually organise a holiday on the internet each year but end up with random unwanteds coming (I've never actually tagged along

).
I decided that this'd be a better place to organise it than a DDR website where people that others actually dislike may show interest.
Here on SG it's hard enough to get somebody you xant to agree to a meetup

Sonsider this an SGUK topic

The villas that I was looking at before in Villamartin are all booked for July and August so we can't get these but she said she has 2 more in the same place for the same price.

These two would only sleep 11 though, which looking at the list so far might be OK. The only other problem is that they are only available for 2 weeks from July 15th which is obviously no use to Adam since his graduations on the 17th.

They do look really nice still though as all the furniture is new in these it's just annoying that thats the only dates that are free

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 2:12 pm

That's a bit crappy. We'll work something out around this anyway.
Thanks for all the work you've put in so far Lisa

If we go after the 15th I should be able to join the fun...

Oh and normally I'm gonna see my friend from Alicante next week-end, will ask her about cheap villas

Cheap villas is good, that was the main attraction about the two I was looking at

spoiler: the amount of people who know about Lubrication and Girl 6 even though they've never posted on SG before is scary

Chi · Post by **Chi** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 11:12 pm

There are small tribes of undiscovered pygmies somewhere lost in South America that know who Lubrication and Girl6 are

Bump!

Anyone found anything else yet?

batesy · Post by **batesy** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 12:42 am

Well I found somewhere else, its a bit more expensive than the last one but it has a private pool. It'd be about £258 for 2 weeks.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 2:21 pm

Then you can all not believe that I can't swim and try to drown me

Private Pool sounds good anyway.
What Bemani do they have though?

Bee · Post by **Bee** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 2:25 pm

I found the Javea houses too, they have extortionate pricing but the properties themselves are pretty damned lush.

This one for instance, costs £255 in June but jesus, so many decent facilities, including a barbecue summer house, massive pool and satellite TV for the lazier non sun-bathing people

http://www.portsidepromotions.com/rentals/2856.html

Or for home page of this villa

http://villa-resy-spain.co.uk

Theres even more bathrooms than bedrooms and a games room with table tennis! The place is pretty much a palace.

batesy · Post by **batesy** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 3:10 pm

Yeah they all seem to be really nice. I wouldn't mind paying a bit extra for somewhere if it was really nice but I'd understand if other people didn't want to.

And yay to private pool so we can try and drown Chris

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 3:23 pm

Haha. Ask if you can get Quiz Mania there too

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 3:25 pm

And I'm up for paying the extra. Why settle with the shit when you can spend a bit of beer money on da' bess?

DarloJo · Post by **DarloJo** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 6:21 pm

Damien wrote:Haha. Ask if you can get Quiz Mania there too

!!!!!!!!

Sold

But yeah, it does look so nice

The only potential problem would be location - places to go out nearby, and being able to get to/from it in the first place. If we can get that sorted, I'd be up for going there!

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 6:24 pm

I've never been on holiday in Europe before so I can't be of any use in all this other than allowing you to use my site to discuss it

).
I'm sure all you people that go at least once a year will know the best way to organise stuff like getting to and from the place though.

batesy · Post by **batesy** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 8:42 pm

I've found a couple of places, don't know if they're any good it was just a quick look. I can't be bothered to look properley anymore so I just did a search for villas for 12 people in Spain and these are some that I found. They could be rubbish but it might give people ideas:

This one is actually an apartment that sleeps 12 I think but it's right near the beach:

Looks nice, and it's Nerja <3 Divided between 12 of us, it comes to £263 as well

batesy · Post by **batesy** » Wed Feb 01, 2006 11:19 pm

I really like the first 2 though I think I like the second one more than the first.

I like the one in Nerja too but not everybody would be as happy about going back to the same place as we are I don't think. Even if it would mean I get to see Senor Carol again.

The price ending in 63 is fate, looks like we have to go to Nerja. Damn

batesy · Post by **batesy** » Thu Feb 02, 2006 5:21 pm

I now want to go to the apartment that I posted a link to. I found out it has some good shops so we now have to go there.

And it's right on the beach so remember that. And remember that you won't have to come shopping with me, I know that would put people off.

And it's only 15 minutes walk from bars and resteraunts, and theres a waterpark near and I think theres a theme park near and yeah, that's all.
