So are you saving a lot by booking direct?
Do most hotels in Tenerife let you book stright through them?

We were quoted €1840 for a studio apt including flights from Ireland through a travel agent. We have secured a studio apt for the two weeks and including flights I reckon we will save almost half the quoted price.

I guess most do allow direct online booking - however it is sometimes difficult to get fine the actual web site address of the Hotel owners as there are so many middlemen with good Google ratings.

I use the Bitacora Hotel - the website is Springhoteles.com and can choose board and room myself and get 10 days for the price of 7 with free taxi transfer compared to a travel agent.

I´m surprised there are any travel agents left ... I haven´t used one for over 5 years. Good saving, dd

I've done this myself for the last few years and like you say saved myself a shed load of money in the process by booking direct with the hotel.

HOWEVER

Now we have the scary Euro/pound rate i've actually found it cheaper to book with Winter Sunshine Holidays or Alpha rooms this year than going direct to the Bitacora..I suspect this is because the rates were fixed a year ago and don't take into account the banana republic currency exchange rate which is likely to get even worse I suspect.

We normally travel with either Ryanair or Aer Lingus the reason we got the quote from a travel agent is because we have been telling our friends about how great a place Tenerife is for so long now that they finally decided to take our advice and are planning to visit next summer the group is fairly largr with a total of 30 people of varying ages from 2yrs to 50+ mostly family groups we have had many great holidays with the group and my wife decided that next year we would once again holiday with our friends that is why we got the quote from the travel agent, and we are doing our bit for tourism in Tenerife by promoting Tenerife to everyone we know.

A friend of mine has a 2 bedroom, ground floor apartment there and a studio on PS4.

If either of these are of interest PM me for her phone number.

I can also give details of a 1 bed in Club Atlantis, a studio in Santa Maria and a studio in Borinquen if you want - all are a couple of minutes walk to the beaches

I think booking direct with PSIII can be expensive so do some searching of holiday lets/winter sunshine holidays/packages etc to get a guide price.
