[Just smiffy]

Just booked and paid £1105

We booked in July for Portsmouth/ Santander return ( £1047 ) for 18th November. We only get evening meal included on each crossing. Breakfast is no longer included.

I could do a month in Spain on that and that would include getting there….

 

[EuroTrotters]

Food is no longer included on sailings after the 6th November.

Just checked !

Do you get a £10 voucher for onboard spend? This is in lieu of breakfast.

Ian

No we didn’t. We got a discount code from a friend so we’re not part of Club Voyage. When we booked it came up as one meal only. But no voucher. Heyho

I'm going for Christmas and New year too but I'll drive down through France. I was sick as a dog the last time I did Portsmouth to santander and I didn't have the dogs with me then .

When I crossed in 2018 with an 8.5m tag it was £545 one way .


Think for me now it would be extortionate as I'd need dog cabins

The other problem is there are no dog cabins during Dec or January .

Call them, when coming back short notice I ask for any port in UK from (in this case from France) always been lucky with dog friendly cabins. Whilst nothing available on their website.

Have to be quick, I managed to get on their site the day they released next years sailings and got the dates I wanted for next May with outside pet cabin so very happy.
Tried the year before but no luck.

Might be worth ringing as last year I spoke to a lady on the phone and could get a cabin out but not a return for the date I had to be back bye.

We will probably be in Beni for the festive season, however our dates have changed 3 times in the last month alone so not guaranteed, thankfully the Villasol folk have been very helpful in accepting the changes so far.
Access to the Beni Snowbirds group is through the "extras" section on the top line of the page. It usually starts running with posts towards the end of September into October.

4pm Happy Hour on the Villasol Terrace is usually a good place to start to find Funsters if in town but not exclusive as they do frequent other "Venues" throughout Beni.
