Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Hotel in Athens not really a 5 star, but it was fine. Dreams - too many young kids and not much for teenagers
DialAFlight is fine but BA is not….expensive and has almost sunk to the level of Ryanair. BA needs to up its game and reduce its prices. It is not what it was
British Airways getting worse by the minute but this is not your fault!
Dominic and team were excellent, as always
Curtis was very patient and helpful
Flight home affected by the IT glitch last Friday - not your fault.
Really grateful for all the prompt assistance when needed - thank you Charlie and team!
Brilliant flights, hotel and transfer. Great. All smooth!
You did well but the airline didn't!
Munich airport a nightmare - not enough staff at immigration, fortunately had hand luggage. Terminal Two was torn up and had to go back to One for immigration and security. Very little air conditioning on one of the hottest weekends of the year. Just chaos. This for your info. Otherwise a great trip.
Some muddles but we have both learned from them.
Stevi Bourke found us an incredible family holiday which we will never forget and are so grateful for! We gave her our requirements and she quickly found us the perfect holiday for us and our two little ones. Thank you so so much!
Another well organised trip by Lucy. So easy to book - they listen to your needs and come back with the results, but more importantly are happy for last minute changes and adapt accordingly. We have booked another holiday with them already. Thanks team
DialAFlight agents are the best, Larry Anglin in particular in finding the best deal and options. On this occasion there was global disruption to flights and DialAFlight made sure I was informed of the situation by calling and sending an email. One can rely on DialAFlight for an excellent service.
Great trip, as usual
Cameron Bleasdale provided perfect support, assisting us in creating a fabulous Tuscany travel experience, 10/10. We'll be back for our next adventure
It is so nice to speak to a real person promptly, without holding and selecting multiple options, particularly when the service is also excellent. Many thanks to Abbie Magbagbeola who booked our accommodation and flights. I have recommended her at every opportunity.
The Dubrovnik plan by Christian was excellent and the hotel selected was outstanding. There is the hotel and residence. We were in residence 8 and we would recommend that it is essential to have a sea view as the courtyards are rather unkept. Once again your planning and assistance was superb.
Thank you to Edward Scudder for all his help and advice. We had a great trip.
All good. 5 stars
Always a first-rate service from DialAFlight and we feel as though we're in safe hands. We will continue to recommend you to all our friends. Just answering the phone as you do is most refreshing.
As usual first class service from Matthew.
All staff friendly and very helpful. Whatever your query they have the answer. I love the pre-flight phone call to check everything is fine
Great help and advice from Helen and the team.
Many thanks Tony
Tank you Jordan and Jensen
Top marks again
Thank you for your service, really caring
Wonderful service. Thank you so much
Always good service from you guys. Will use again later this year
This is a luxury five-star enclave sitting on the west coast of sun-soaked Tenerife... a year-round destination for warm weather that attracts a celebrity clientele. Its 72-hole golf course is a key attraction, as is a lovely gold-sand beach.
Star quality: Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem, Bill Clinton, Stephen Hawking.
Vital statistics: A Moorish palace of excellence in Tenerife, set high on the cliffs, the terracotta walls of the Abama shore up the Canary island's most luxurious hotel. Surrounded by extravagant tropical gardens, you'll find nearly 500 suites and rooms amid its shady courtyards.
Its cliff-top setting means that you'll be whisked down to the beach by a cable car, but if you want to stay put there are nine swimming pools, including an infinity pool at the cliff's edge that looks out across to the island of La Gomera.
The Abama's unabashed luxury continues with two Michelin-starred restaurants. MB comes under the supervision of Martin Berasategui, with classic Spanish cuisine.
Kabuki serves Japanese in a sleek red and black interior.
Eight others include Le Mirador, which specialises in seafood and has views of the ocean.
During school holidays, the bankers of Europe descend en masse with their young children.
If you want to escape beautifully dressed euro-tots, head to the Tagor villas. The most exclusive (and expensive) of all the Abama's rooms are reserved for over-18s, with complimentary drinks and snacks.
Another refuge for adults is the Abama's 72-par golf course. Considered to be one of Spain's finest, it brings golf-minded celebrities including Bill Clinton to the resort.
Other sports facilities include seven tennis courts - one a show court with seating for 600 people.
Location report: Tucked away on the west coast, near Playa de San Juan resort, which is a 15-minute walk away along the cliff. The rest of the island requires a hire car.
Key attraction: Privacy and the sort of luxury that you normally find in only a handful of exclusive resorts around the globe. Reliable short-haul winter sun with Ritz-Carlton finesse (Asprey products in the bathrooms).
The hotel's extensive grounds are meticulously kept, and the beach has imported sand because the local stuff was considered to be a bit dark and gritty for the hotel.
In the news: Cruz and husband Bardem were at the Abama recently.
Good enough for the rest of us?: Technically, the Abama's beach is public - but access is almost impossible without going via the hotel.
