An update already? Yep!

I hadn't quite finalized the booking of the villa, so when I received another quote from a dibber for over £300 less I had to look into it.

The villa is in the same community (Sunset Lakes), similar gorgeous views, includes pool heat, has a hot tub and has great reviews. The only real difference I could see was that the first one has 5 bedrooms and since there will only be 2 of us knocking about in there, that was something we really didn't need.

I felt REALLY bad about having to go back to the original dibber and say I was no longer booking with them, but I couldn't pass up that big of a saving.

So I have this morning paid the deposit for this villa!





It looks just as fab I think!

In other news we booked our second ADR!



Yep! California Grill! Eeeeeep! I have always thought the menu would be too posh for a fussy cow such as myself, but on closer inspection there are a few things I could eat

I know this will cost a fortune paying OOP, but we thought we would make our second and final ADR a special one I have booked a table for 7.30pm, so it will be perfect timing to watch Wishes at 9pm. SO excited for that!

That's all for now, thanks for reading

Ooo exciting news about the new villa... and what a great saving! (I completely agree, to good an offer to pass up on!). It looks gorgeous, those lake views from the pool are just stunning!

And hurrah for California Grill, can't wait to hear your review of it! (definitely on my bucket list!)

Loved having an update so soon! xxx

Yay, I was hoping you would start this pretty quick after seeing it on IG!

So happy you are getting to go again and your plans sound great. The villa looks lovely and CG is amazing and timed with the fireworks, should be excellent.

Great flight prices too.xx

Oh lovely looking villa, cant wait to hear about your ADR at Cali Grill as we have that on our plans for next year too. I was worried about it being suitable for the kids (and a commoner like me ) but Dibbers put my mind at rest so hoping to get a booking xx

Haha. Yes, a dress is recommended if you don't want to feel like a total hillbilly. I mean for you, C might get funnier looks if he wore one.
