After one weekend of sun it looks like our summer is over folks, so if you want a real sun holiday, check out this week’s excellent offers from Thomas Cook with specially reduced rates for JOE readers.
Spain
Cork to Salou, H10 Med Village on Self Catering, 10th May, 7 Nights
Price: €359pp. Price for JOE.ie readers: €299pp
With a string of lovely beaches in a beautiful location only a hop, skip and a jump from Barcelona, Salou is deservedly one of the most popular tourist destinations. With that in mind, wouldn’t you jump at the chance to spend a week there in comfortable lodgings for less than 300 quid? Of course you would.
Lanzarote
Shannon to Lanzarote, Plaza Palmeras on self-catering, 11th May, 7 Nights
Price: €299pp. Price for JOE.ie readers: €219pp
€219 would barely be enough for a few nights in an Irish hotel, so you know that seven nights in Lanzarote in apartments that are centrally located with flights thrown into the bargain is a very sweet deal indeed.

Egypt
Dublin to Cairo, Shores Golden on All Inclusive, 16th May, 7 Nights
Price: €459pp. Price for JOE.ie readers: €379pp
With the pyramids, the sphinx and the chance to dance like an Egyptian alongside actual Egyptians, Egypt is a very popular destination with tourists these days. While you’re there you might as well go all out with an-all inclusive package in a hotel close to where the action is and at a very decent price as well.
Portugal
Shannon to Faro, 3* Sol Flor da Rocha on self-catering, 19th May, 7 Nights
Price: €359pp. Price for JOE.ie readers: €275pp
Great beaches, great nightlife and great accommodation at an affordable price, what more could you ask for from a week-long stay in the Algarve?
Crete
Dublin to Crete, 3* Koni Village on Self Catering, 17th May, 14 Nights
Price: €529pp. Price for JOE.ie readers: €445pp
If a week isn’t enough time away from home – and it rarely is – then why not spend a fortnight in the comfortable Koni Village apartments in Stanis and lap up the sun, the sights and the surroundings in one of the most beautiful parts of Europe.
