LINE AND PARTNER DANCERS

Cyprus 2011

Here are just a few photos of the first week of our 2011 Line & Partner Dancing Holidays to Cyprus that departed from the UK on 27th March for 7 and 14 nights of danced-filled days and nights! This annual event is always accompanied by Mathilde Robert, MD at Planet Holidays. It is one of her favourite trips overseas and there's nothing she loves more than meeting up with regular customers who have participated in the Line Dancing holiday for years!
In addition to daily workshops and dancing every night, there's also a weekly fancy-dress evening. This year, the first week had a 'Pirates' theme (Mathilde was there to take photos!) and 'Pyjamas' was the second week's theme. We have not yet seen the pictures but we heard every one had a great laugh!

Our Line & Partner Dancing holidays are held at the lovely 4-Star LOUIS IMPERIAL BEACH HOTEL in Paphos, Cyprus where participants have exclusive use of a fab room with a huge and perfect parquet dance floor. Our customers are given Sea View rooms (at no supplement), Half Board is included and so is Car Hire!

Daily workshops take place for a couple of hours every morning. Then, from 8pm 'til midnight, the dance floor takes on a vibrant party atmosphere, again accompanied by the sounds of Kalvin Finch's great dance music collection! Kalvin (from M.I.B, Men in Black) is a fully qualified dance instructor who has been teaching for over 10 years – you can definitely tell he loves his job! Popular dance music and special requests are included every night, there's often the chance to participate in dancing competitions, win prizes, and have amazing photographs taken.

A personal message from Mathilde Robert, MD, Planet Holidays:

"A huge 'thank you' to all our regular guests who joined us again this year. Your loyal support is greatly appreciated. And, as usual, it was lovely to meet new faces too.
... As I am a strong believer of the 'more the merrier', I hope you'll be spreading the word as much as I do and that you'll be bringing along with you new dancing friends next year!
... I look forward to helping you book your next year's Line Dancing holiday (remember, I've got excellent rates from the hotel!). See you again next March!”

Fully Flexible Tailor Made to Suite You!

Flexible durations

Our co-operation with scheduled airlines such as British Airways, Cyprus Airways and Olympic Airways offers you the option of a flexible duration when a standard 7 or 14 nights holiday is not convenient - perfect for a short-break or to suit any travel plans you have in mind.

Weekend breaks

Nothing beats going away for the weekend! A little shopping in Athens... a few days playing golf... a long weekend at a top-class spa... whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or fancy a break from your normal routine, a weekend away always works a treat! Tell us what you have in mind and we’ll do all we can to put it together.

Flights only

If you’re just looking for good-value and flexible flight arrangements, tell us your requirements and we’ll endeavour to find you the right flights to suit your needs.

Accommodation only

Alternatively, if you have booked your own flights, we’ll be happy to provide you with ‘accommodation only’ (minimum 7 nights in high season). Or, if you particularly want a hotel we do not feature in our programme, talk to us - there’s a good chance we could book it on your behalf.

Accomodation Only

Plus Complimentary Guide Book


Alternatively, if you have booked your own flights, we’ll be happy to provide you with‘accommodation only’ (minimum 7 nights in high season). Or, if you particularly want a hotel we do not feature in our programme, talk to us - there’s a good chance we could book it on your behalf.

To help you plan your holiday, we have teamed up with JPM Guides and will send you a complimentary ‘This Way Guide’ or ‘Mini Guide’ with your travel documents.

The guide you will receive includes a host of information about your chosen resort, a map, as well as concise details about sightseeing opportunities at your holiday destination.

If you require additional copies for your travelling companions or would like to receive information about other resorts, just contact us on 0871 871 2240.

Charges applicable for extra copies are as follows:
This Way Guide (Cyprus, Crete or Rhodes): £3.00* per copy
Mini Guide (all other Greek resorts / islands): £1.50* per copy

Multi-Centres & Island-hopping

Any resort within one destination (be it Cyprus or any Greek island) can be combined to provide you with the twin-centre of your choice and give you the opportunity to totally chill out in a secluded hotel for the first week to recharge your batteries, before living it up in a more bustling resort for the second.

Similarly, your holiday time can be split to allow you a few days sightseeing in Athens followed by some time on one of the islands... or even a multi-centre combining Cyprus and Greece.

And if you’ve always fancied island-hopping in Greece but might have been put off by lengthy boat journeys, check-out the two brilliant options below and enjoy an island-hopping holiday with a difference!

SPA PAMPERING HOLIDAYS OR HONEYMOONS

Feel relaxed and rejuventaed besides you are on holiday! Book one of our luxury spa hotels.

Up until a few years ago, hotels offering a sauna or a jacuzzi distinguished themselves from the norm. With today's strong emphasis on 'health & beauty', such facilities no longer count as luxuries.

Wishing to maximise the benefits a holiday can bring, the chance to explore new horizons and get away from the daily routine has to now has to also combine the best opportunity to totally revitalise mind, body and soul.

Within the range of hotels that we feature, many come complete with 'health & beauty' facilities offering a variety of treatments ranging from basic facials and manicures to the 'crème de la crème' in pampering packages.

You can have a Greek back-drop setting of perfect weather, white-washed hotels and cobalt seas, and indulge in Spa secrets.
