Virgin Holidays, the UK�s largest scheduled tour operator to the Caribbean has once more joined forces with Sandals and Beaches to produce a dedicated brochure for their hotels in the region. With every featured property being ultra all-inclusive it takes the worry out of all those holiday extras.
This year�s brochure is bursting with special offers, especially for couples getting married or honeymooning abroad; book your wedding at a Sandals or Beaches property with a concierge room and receive a free lounge pass at your departure airport, a Wedgwood dinner service set AND a three-piece set of Samsonite luggage if you book into a Concierge room or higher for 12 nights. Or if you book your wedding with butler service, you receive a FREE one-way flight upgrade to Premium Economy on Virgin Atlantic. All honeymooners can celebrate their arrival with a free bottle of sparkling wine.
New for February 2007 is the contemporary wing of the Sandals Grande Antigua called the Mediterranean Village, featuring 180 luxurious ocean facing suites with Jacuzzi tubs, mahogany four-poster beds and flat screen TV�s. Boasting the largest swimming pool in the Eastern Caribbean, this is a breathtaking property.
Customers can save up to �310 per room if they book between 16th July and 31st October for selected dates. A week�s ultra all-inclusive holiday at the Sandals Royal Hicacos in Cuba costs from just �899.
The 2007 brochure places an emphasis on the quality and exclusive services that are on offer at these ultra all-inclusive resorts. There are no �standard� rooms in any of the Sandals or Beaches Hotels, the basic room category is a beautifully furnished Deluxe room. For guests who wish to be treated to the ultimate in personalised attention, the top categories of rooms at selected Sandals resorts have butlers as part of the service to attend to all their needs. They are trained by the Guild of Professional English Butlers ensuring the highest level of personal service.
Beyond the high standards in accommodation, the ultra all-inclusive deal covers unlimited premium branded drinks, all land and water sports including complimentary scuba diving for qualified divers, gourmet dining and sports tuition. The exclusive European Red Lane Spas are available at many of the featured resorts blending the tropical Caribbean traditions into the finest modern spa environment.
The 44 page brochure offers a choice of six exotic islands in the Caribbean; Antigua, St Lucia, Jamaica, Cuba, the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos. There�s something for everyone, with Sandals resorts providing an ideal break for couples seeking romance, and Beaches resorts offering the same level of luxury for families and friends alike.
