Booking Oct 2016?

[Chaz2210]

When is best to book? We have annual passes and I've been quoted £410 for santa fe or £587 for sequoia lodge for 4 of us 20-24 Oct room only, or I can get kyriad for roughly £300. Am I likely to get a better one person package nearer the time? Or does anyone know if any of the other countries have a decent October offer on now? Thanks

the UK site has the Santa Fe one person for £579, thats 30% off and free half board plan for one adult included. The Dutch site has the same deal at 945 euros (so more expensive at around £730).

The UK site deal may work in your favour if you have any kids under 7, as they would be free and get the half board meal plan too.

The French and Spanish sites have no offers yet for end of October (its too early)

At the moment the German site only has 20% off so is more expensive.

If your kids are not aged under 7, I'd go with your AP room only quote price, or the Kyriad .

All French schools are on holiday from 20th October this year, so I don't think theres any point waiting for a good deal for your dates on the French website, its peak holiday booking time for them.

I always have paid full price at the time of booking when using AP discount in the past, but I don't know if paying a deposit is an option.

I took the plunge and booked Santa Fe, just for future info it's fine to just pay the 15% deposit and then the balance 2mths before stay, they also confirmed I can upgrade the hotel before we go if I want to with no fees.

My only other question is do u think it's worth the extra for the other hotels? I was quoted £587 for sequoia lodge and £700 for Newport Bay. We stayed in Newport Bay in 2012 and while it was nice I'm not sure it's worth £300 when u spend such little time in the hotel

for me, definitely not - the most I'd consider paying to upgrade from the Santa Fe is around £25 per night.
