Why DON'T we charge ANY high seasonal rates?:
When our children were small we were always irritated by soaring rates for school holidays, Christmas time etc. Along with this, the airline always upped their charges too. We got tired of being 'ripped-off' as we saw it. It made holidays in the sun expensive for people like us who wanted a private apartment.
We swore if we ever had a place in the sun we wouldn't do that! Now we have a beautiful penthouse we have decided that we will charge the same LOW-COST all year round - even in the HIGHEST season.
So those who plan and book well ahead get an amazing deal for school holidays etc and, those that don't still get the best deal around - a PENTHOUSE apartment with private roof sun terrace for the price of an ordinary apartment...
Of course, we are told 'the holiday industry accepts 'tiered' pricing. They tell us we are just giving profit away. Well, it's 'credit-crunch' time so here is your opportunity for a great low-cost luxury holiday - at prices that you can live with..
