An Ideal Children's Animal Park

Advantages: Penguins and Other Animals
Disadvantages: Rude Children and The Price

...On a recent trip to the Isle of Wight, I decided we would visit the many animal attractions as there was no sunshine, it was windy and rainy at some points, so as there was nothing else to do, other than waste my hard earned cash on the amusements I wanted to see the animals (yes I saw other things too - reviews to follow). On our arrival we drove from East Cowes to a pub that had been recommended for lunch, as we drove we passed the Flamingo Park also known as Seaview Wildlife Encounter (I find all these attractions with two names very confusing). What is even more confusing is this is called Seaview due to its location in Seaview not the Wildlife Encounter with Sea animals. Anyway, we went down the drive way and found ourselves in a car park, it was empty (just the way I like to be a tourist - by myself). The cost of getting in...

Haven SeaView Holiday Park in Weymouth

Advantages: Great entertainment and value for money
Disadvantages: none

...Seaview holiday park in Weymouth belongs to the Haven chain of resorts. As a child I spent every year at Butlins ( which coincidently are Havens big brother , owned by the same company ). However as an adult when I've been looking around for somewhere to take my own children ( I have four of them for my sins! ) Joseph who's 14 , Declan who's 12 , Caitlin who's 10 and 6 month old Jessica , I've found Butlins just too pricey. Haven have been a grand alternative. You don't have Red Coats here , you have 'Fun Stars' the staff are overwhelmingly helpful and manage to walk around with a constant smile on their faces. Weymouth is a beautiful seaside town with a fantastic beach and a well equipt town center. Situated in Dorset there is plenty to offer outside of the resort which is walking distance from town. Some of the local attractions...

Get a sea-view !

Advantages: 10-minutes away from Singapore
Disadvantages: Exterior looks run-down

...(approx. £40) for the room including one breakfast. Shower and bath are separated. The bathroom is spacious and mirrors are everywhere. The bedroom and the bathroom are separated by the sliding windows. It's a cool design. I got a sea-view room (this is more expensive commpared to a non-sea-view room) and I could even see Singapore from my room. The view is really breath-taking and I know most people would pay that little extra to get a sea-view room in Hyatt JB. The buffet breakfast is great. lots of choices and you would want to get up early just for breakfast. Most people I met at the cafe are tourists. The downside is that the cafe is : from the lobby you have to take the stairs - no lift - so I would advise you to leave your baggage in your room if you are checking out on the same day. Get your bags after you finish your...

sirenis country club

Advantages: Sun
Disadvantages: food

...Seaview Country Club Location: Seaview country Club is located 30 minutes from Ibiza Airport and about 3 miles from the lights of San Antonio. Puerto De Torrent is a small area of which the main drag is about ¾ of a mile long with plenty of bars and shops on both sides of the main road which takes you to San Antonio. Ibiza is seeing an overall of the main roads at the moment and there are lots of diversions to and from San Antonio and Ibiza Town so take care driving or use the public bus service which is very good and cheap to use. Hotel Seaview Country Club: First impression is always a good sign and on entering the main reception you are greeted with a lovely marble reception area which is very clean and air conditioned. The staff are always greeting and always very helpful. You will find a good seating area with 4 telephone...

Haven Holidy Weymouth Bay and Seaview

Advantages: None I could find
Disadvantages: Few Staff, Dirty. Unsuitable for Disabled, Expensive, Badly laid out, Poor Health and Safety

....30. They offered us a standard class two bed caravan. We refused. They then offered a Gold 3 bed caravan on the next door site (Seaview) until Tuesday. We refused. We suggested they give us a full refund (£969) and we'd find somewhere else, and that we expected whatever happened to be sorted out by midday. We had already lost a day of our holiday. The Supervisor on reception wen tto talk to the maanger...faced with a demanded full cash refund they decided the 3 bed caravan on the Seaview Camp was actually available all week. So off we went, and spent the rest of the week in a caravan as opposed to an apartment, not ideal considering my mobility issues, and the fact my wife doesn't like caravans, especially considering our young children... my kids are not just like a herd of elephants but more of the full safari at 6am, and there is no...

Hotel Ses Savines Ibiza

Advantages: central location
Disadvantages: noisy at night in rooms on promanade side

...Ses Savines Is central located right by the sea ,a walkway runs in front which goes to San Antonio about 10mins walk, the rooms that face the sea can be noisy at night from 2am till 6 am with clubbers going to and fro , also rooms can be booked with seaview at a supplement , some rooms have trees in front so the view is blocked and at the price is a rip off if you end up in them , as the sunsets are ace if you can see them , also hotel is generally disabled friendly with ramps about , some places not accessible are the front pool which has 2 steps up to it and the crazy golf, which is at the rear of the building where the tennis courts. the rear is less noisy at night and gets the sun first thing in the morning...
