Ethan has been enjoying the hotel animation activities this week.
He won joint winner earlier in the week in a football goal scoring competition then today took part in a mini football match and he even scored a goal.
The Animation team work so hard and they are one of the best I've seen in a very long time at a hotel.
There is a daily activities programme so you know what's on and when. What I liked was they don't drag you off your sunbed to take part but everyone seems to do the activities....even I did the Aqua aerobics today.
The mini disco and evening entertainment is really good too.
The hotel only employ people who can actually sing and dance. The Musicals night was brilliant.

Our Travel Counsellors have got your next weekend break covered ๐ From hidden gems to buzzing streets, discover our five favourite city breaks below โจ
Oslo - Highly recommended by some of our team, Norwayโs capital is a brilliant blend of old and new architecture.
Berlin - The German capital is big, bold, and beautifully compelling. Thereโs more here than you can fit into a weekend, even a long one, so take your time and enjoy strolling around.
Budapest - Named one of Conde Nast Travellerโs top places to visit in 2024 after celebrating its 150th anniversary in late 2023.
Venice - Great for couples but also friends, families, and solo travellers, this road-traffic-free city is one of the loveliest in the world for simply ambling around โ perhaps with a gelato in hand.
Palma - The Majorcan capital delivers blissful sunshine less than two and a half hoursโ flight time from London.

Home now from our overnight stay in London and we've loved every minute. I've not shared a bed with my sister for years and I can confirm....she still fidgets!!!
I highly recommend staying at the Melia White House London Hotel and to pay that little bit extra and upgrade to The Level.
Priority reception check in.
Level Lounge access that includes unlimited soft drinks, beers, wines, fizz and a selection of breads, cheeses, olives, posh nuts & crisps and even scones with jam and cream.
Children have their own popcorn and sweetie station.
We also have breakfast in the Level Lounge that offers everything from a continental breakfast, full English or even eggs royale
Ruby loved the raw honey with hot buttered toast.
We headed out into London last night to see the Theatre production of Stranger Things The First Shadow. If you haven't seen it you must go. It's like nothing I've ever seen before.
We realised using taxis to get around makes you late as traffic is horrendous....we jumped out of our taxi enroute and ran to the theatre getting there with 1 minute to spare.
Today we used the underground tube to go to Battersea Power Station. After a very big refurbishment its now a massive shopping centre with loads of shops and restaurants plus outdoor gardens and food stalls. We shopped then chilled in the sunshine.
We've had a lovely time together and I can't wait to do it again.

I enjoyed a lovely brunch this morning courtesy of Palladium hotels at the Cosy Club in Harrogate.
Our morning training session covered the fabulous TRS Ibiza Hotel. In a fantastic location and ideal for couples or groups of friends wanting to experience a true Ibiza style vibe.
Step into the newly refurbished TRS Ibiza Hotel, home to style and luxurious dรฉcor all perfectly suited to adults only.
This amazing All Inclusive Plus hotel is complete with an extensive spa, an idyllic location with direct access to the beach and a range of culinary delights at a choice of three restaurants.
For those looking to relax, check out the bar menu's whilst sitting by one of the three pools or those looking to be more active can take part in the daytime entertainment or even visit the gym.
There's also a range of swish room types to choose from all including complimentary concierge service and some complete with luxuries like hydro-massage baths and Nespresso coffee machines.
I'll be travelling to Ibiza in September so having the best contacts in the business helps to sneak me in here for the day to sample everything it has to offer.

Saturday night Gala dinner did not disappoint.
Hosted by the wonderful Vernon Kaye. He is soon nice.
I was seated on a table with Silversea Cruises and our marketing team and enjoyed a fabulous 3 course dinner.
Our entertainment for the evening was Spandau Ballet legend Tony Hadley followed by the amazing Becky Hill.
It was great dining and dancing with my fellow TC's, I had a lovely hug with our CEO Steve Byrne and just let our hair down.

After spending a full week in the office last week I was honoured to be invited along to a hosted lunch by Langham Hotels.
It was a welcomed break and it was lovely chatting with the sales and marketing team that covered the USA, Far East, Australia and UK team.
I did try my best to use the chopsticks but caved after a few failed attempts.
The Asian sticky toffee pudding was my favourite bit. #natalievarleytravelcounsellor #langhamhotel

Skiathos storm in full swing over the past few days.

You'll be home soon Mum. โค๏ธ๐ฌ๐ท
3 days left of our holiday and we decided to revist Syrtaki Restaurant as we enjoyed it so much and Ethan wanted to plate smash again.
As soon as the music starts you know it's about to happen.
The staff begin to clap, the Restaurant people follow and some get up to dance.
Such a great atmosphere and something we will talk about for a long time to come.
It's all about making memories. We hugged and said our goodbyes again.

What a way to end my Daughters Birthday.
I booked into a restaurant called Syrtaki as it offers the plate smashing and Ruby said she really wanted to do it.
The restaurant pulled out all the stops. They didn't disappoint.
Decorated our table
Plate smashing
Birthday singing with cake,candles and sparklers
Hugs and kisses saying thank you and goodbye.
We couldn't have asked for anything more.
An amazing day for my Daughter Rubys 14th Birthday today.
We hired a boat for the day, just us, no skipper....it was fabulous.
It's something we've never done before but the hire company Sunsation in Argassi were very thorough before we set.
We've taken it the beautiful scenery and anchored up on a beautiful island to swim in the sea.
Highly recommended

We've enjoyed a chilled pool day today.
The nice thing I've noticed since we have been here is you can come to the pool anytime of day and there are always plenty of sunbeds
No sunbed wars here.
It's my Daughter birthday tomorrow I have a few things up my sleeve so early tea and early to bed for a fun packed day tomorrow.
