Todays Dilema !
« on: November 04, 2006, 04:54:00 AM »
I'm sorry folks but I need more help  :roll:  
 
 I thought we'd decided on the Playa Pesquero for next year ( I know ..us Brits like to book early )
 But now OH has thrown the Playa Coste Verde into the equation ..I've looked at reviews and they seem much of a muchness ..has anyone been to both ??
 thanks

lizzylobs,
 
 We've only been to the Playa Pesquero, but from what I've heard the PCV is a great resort too.
 
 They both share the beach with the Blau.  It's a little cove.
 
 Several members here have been to both so I'm sure they'll jump in and help you out.
 
 
 The Pesquero is a larger resort but the main amenities are all compact in a central location.  It's just the rooms that are spread out.
 
 
 It's a tough choice to make.
 
 Bellagio is probably the expert on both resorts having been to both several times.  Check out his reviews and posts.
 
 He's at the PCV right now but he'll be back next week.
 
 When are you planning on going?  The reason I ask is that we're planning a 7 Days group trip for April 07 and so far it looks like the majority want to go to the PCV.  Why not join us?     :6:
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Hi Lizzy
 
 I've been to both places, and my personal preference was the PCV.
 
 The rooms are definitely bigger and nicer at the PP, because it is the newer of the two, but the size of the hotel is a little overwhelming.  The PCV is somewhat smaller, but it has the same amenities as the PP.
 
 I found the food comparable in both places, though I know Bellagio will disagree with me, finding the PP more to his taste.
 
 The staff at both places are out of this world, so that's not an advantage either way.
 
 I guess I'm saying you can't really lose, no matter which one you choose!
 
 Best of luck deciding!

OOOOOh Dither ,Dither   :D  
 Thanks for the replys
 
 Thats a lovely invitation Flopnfly but unfortunatley we are planning for October   :eek:   we are hoping for a week in Greece early in the year .
 
 We originally picked P P because of all the good reviews but then the PCV was thrown in and came out cheaper ( always a bonus ) it also appeals because its a bit smaller ....dither, dither

We considered the PP but finally decided on the PCV it appeals more to us because it is smaller than the PP and the price was to good to refuse, also when we visited the BCV most of the people on the flight were on their way to the PP we prefer to meet people from other countries when we are on holiday.
