It will help relievethe pain associated with ears‘popping’. For older babies andtoddlers, beakers of drink during takeoff and landing or cartons with strawsare useful. These can also be a gooddistraction - particularly if your childdoes not normally have them. It is alsoa good idea to take a few cartons offormula, if your child uses them andpre-sterilised bottles in case you haveany delays getting to resort.• Although you will receive a meal onthe plane it is always a good idea totake a few snacks with you. Tried andtested successes include: popcorn,rice cakes, crackers, raw fruit andvegetables. Try to make sure childrendo not eat too much as it might makethem feel sick when sat on a bustravelling to resort.• Small plastic bags are excellent forstoring any soggy left over snacks andfor any wet items.• While you don't want to weighyourself down with any more luggagethan you have to, a few well-chosensmall toys could mean the differencebetween a bored, fractious child and acontented, stimulated little travellingcompanion(s). Anything light, smalland soft is a good idea, including cars,storybooks, crayons/colouring books,stickers, favourite toy and hand heldcomputer games are always goodoptions.• If travelling with a baby or small childit’s worth packing an extra t-shirt inyour hand luggage to cope with anyaccidents during the journey.Top Tips for Families on FlotillaThe following are some proven ideasfrom other families and Neilson staff.• As well as there being lifejackets foreveryone we also have buoyancy aidsthat small children can wear all thetime while on deck for added security.• If with very small children, it can be agood idea to ask them to stay in thecockpit at all times whilst the boat isunder sail. If the boat is leaning overthen it can be a little harder to walkalong the top decks.• If moving around the outside of theyacht then please ask them to walkand not run, as there can be plenty ofthings to catch little toes on.• The forepeak cabin is usually thesmallest so is a good size for thechildren and as you generally anchorstern to each evening, it will befurthest away from the quayside.• When parking the boat for the firstcouple of times it can be a good ideato have your children below deckwhilst you master this under thewatchful eye of your skipper. Give thechildren a job so they feel involved.• We can equip our yachts with netting -this is a mesh net that attaches alongboth sides of the yacht, making it saferfor them to move around the boat.• Your flotilla mate will give your childrenlots of things to do during the day andusually encourages the children tomeet up, with a few parents once youhave parked up for the early evening inyour new port of call.• Once your confidence and that of yourchildren increases then it’s great to getthem involved in sailing the boat andtaking part in the fun.63

Important Holiday Information68Your AccommodationUnder Occupancy SupplementsThe prices in this brochure are usually based on a specificnumber of adults sharing the accommodation as statedon each price panel. If there are fewer adults sharing theaccommodation than the number stated, supplementswill have to be paid. These supplements are called “underoccupancy” supplements and are indicated at the bottomof each price panel where relevant. The under occupancysupplements shown are ‘from’ amounts, per person pernight, and may vary depending on date of travel. Unlessotherwise stated, under occupancy supplements arepayable per person per night. Please note that infants donot count towards occupancy levels. Children do counttowards occupancy unless travelling on a free place. Ouraccommodation prices are based on at least two adultssharing. We do not always have the space to show underoccupancy supplements for the single traveller foraccommodation which is priced on a two adults sharingbut please contact us for further information andsupplements where applicable (see also ‘SingleSupplements’ below).InfantsPlease note that in each accommodation description westate the maximum number of occupants a room canaccommodate; this number can include one infant unlessotherwise stated.

There may be a charge locallyfor infants for use of services or facilities in theaccommodation.Single SupplementsWhy are single travellers asked to pay for their room? If asingle person occupies a double room they will usually beasked to pay extra (a single supplement). Hotels pricetheir rooms as doubles and they do not reduce the rates ifthey are occupied by a single person. The costs to thehotel of providing the room - heating, lighting, cleaningetc. are the same regardless of how many people occupythat room.Why are single rooms sometimes smaller than doubles orfamily rooms? Hotel design may mean that single roomsare smaller and may have different facilities to standardrooms. While there is normally a supplement for theserooms the overall cost will usually be less than when asingle person occupies a double room.The prices we charge reflect the costs of underoccupancy of the rooms.Official RatingsRating systems are an attempt to give a guide to theoverall quality of properties. The official ratings are givenby the authorities in the country, and do tend to give a fairimpression of relative standards within that country.However, different countries have different standards, sodon’t assume that a 3 star hotel in one country isequivalent to a 3 star hotel in another. Official ratings arementioned in the brochure descriptions where applicable.Neilson RatingsWith over 30 years of experience we have compiled arating system specifically for Neilson. This is based on theparticular characteristics of each property, taking intoaccount their facilities, general atmosphere, plus thedistances to resort facilities. Our rating system enables usto give a useful reflection of property types in allcountries. The rates are awarded from • to ••••• with +being awarded to those with a slightly higher standard.The nature of these ratings is subjective. They arecompiled using the opinions of experienced Neilsonemployees in addition to a scoring based system.Air ConditioningSome properties have individual air conditioning located ineither the bedroom or the living area. In somedescriptions we have indicated that there is centrallycontrolled air conditioning. This means it is operated atthe discretion of the management, both in bedrooms andpublic areas. In such cases air conditioning may berestricted to particular times of the day and to the hottestmonths of the summer. There may be a local charge for airconditioning in some rooms.Nights in Your AccommodationYour accommodation is usually reserved for you from 12noon (from 4pm in some areas) on the day of yourdeparture from the UK. In some cases depending on yourflight times you may arrive in the early hours or during thecourse of the morning. Your accommodation should beimmediately available to you and in this case is classed asthe first night of your holiday. Rooms are normally vacatedat 10am on the last day of the holiday, yachts at 9.30am.On some occasions there may be several hours to waitbefore the departure of your flight home. In such cases aroom may be made available for changing and storingluggage. It is possible that you may lose a meal due toyour particular flight times.ViewsIf you would like a specific view, please be aware thatrooms described as having a pool or sea view may nothave a full pool or full sea view because of trees or plantsblocking the view.Mediterranean ToiletsSome Mediterranean toilets cannot digest paper, so itmay go into a little bin, which is emptied daily.Hotel-run Children’s ClubsWe are unable to accept responsibility for or give anyguarantee for the standard of the facilities andqualifications of personnel at hotel children’s clubs.Children’s clubs may not meet standards of similarfacilities in the UK and guests are strongly advised toremember that local standards and requirements inrespect of such clubs may differ overseas and so youmust ensure that you are completely satisfied with thefacilities and staff providing this service before you enrolyour child or children into the club and into the clubs care.Room Cleaning and TowelsBed linen and towels are changed once during the weekand at the end of each week.Other GuestsWe do not have exclusive use of all properties featured inthis brochure. Therefore there may be guests from othercountries and of mixed age groups at youraccommodation. Some of the hotels we feature dooperate corporate conference facilities and there may beoccasions where business meetings are taking placeduring your stay.Your ResortSafety & HygieneYour health and safety is of paramount concern to us,especially if children are involved. In addition tomonitoring the hygiene and safety standards in all thehotel and apartments that we use, it is appropriate thatwe bring to your attention the need for you to be carefuland to take necessary precautions whilst overseas andwe need your help and cooperation with this. We wouldask you to pay close attention to the followinginformation, together with any other information we, ouragents or suppliers, provide to you before you go, duringyour flight and when you arrive in your destination and atyour hotel. It is most important that you familiariseyourself with this information and any other informationyou are given or on display, because not only do we wantyou to have a great holiday but we want you to have asafe holiday.Swimming pools and water features: Some of ourhotels and apartments welcome local people and otherholidaymakers not residing at the property to use theswimming pool and facilities within the accommodation.This can lead to pool areas becoming busy at times, forexample sunbathing space and available sunloungers maybecome limited. Please make use of the pool showerfacilities before swimming - this helps to prevent anypotential infections and helps to keep the pool clean.Every pool is different and most hotels/apartments do notemploy life guards, so you are strongly recommended tofamiliarise yourself with the pool layout, identifying thedeep and shallow ends before using. Do not use the poolafter dark or when the pool is closed, even if the pool hasunderwater lights. You should never swim when you havebeen drinking alcohol. Whilst some of our hotels andapartments have water features, such as slides or flumes,which may appear in our photography, generally we donot recommend these are used. It is possible suchfeatures may have been replaced or removed since thephotography was taken.Overseas Safety Standards: Regrettably the safetystandards and regulations overseas may not be of thesame level that we enjoy in the UK. For instance, thedesign and height of balconies may differ. The setting andenforcement of local regulations is a matter for theAuthorities of the country and the foreign supplier of theservices concerned. We are working with hoteliers toimprove standards wherever possible. You should familiariseyourself with fire procedures, including emergency exits inyour accommodation, the swimming pool(s) area and anyunfamiliar cooking appliances. If in doubt, ask yourrepresentative or an appropriate member of staff.Children: Children must be supervised by you at all times,especially near water, on balconies or in unfamiliar buildingsand surroundings.Stomach Upsets: It is still a relatively common occurrence tosuffer gastric illness when travelling abroad and beingexposed to a different environment. There are many ways youcan reduce the possibility of being affected, such as, noteating undercooked food, avoiding ice in drinks, ensuring youdrink plenty of bottled water and avoid over exposure to thesun.Out and About: Due to rough terrain and uneven surfaces,we recommend that you are extra careful and vigilant whenvisiting temples and other sites of interest and when crossingroads. Crimes against people and property are a fact of lifethroughout the world and you have the same responsibilityfor your own safety as you do at home. In some places thelocal police may not be very cooperative or interested whenyou report a theft or need insurance confirmation so alwaystake care of your property. It is recommended not toapproach cats and dogs and other animals as these may carrythe rabies disease which can be passed on through bites andscratches. Please exercise caution before entering the sea asthe seabed is not even and changes in depth. The sea iscapable of springing surprises and we have not inspected thebeach or seabed for its safety.Airports and TransfersSome resorts are off the beaten track; to reach them youeither fly to airfields with few facilities, or you take long busdrives from better known airports. The places you reach areworth the trouble. Transfer timings are shown on each resortpage. Timings are approximate and do not include droppingoff guests at other accommodation en route.Diving & HealthYour safety and enjoyment is our prime concern.

Compliance with any applicable regulatory requirements (such as, forexample, those of the CAA) will be proper performance of our, and our suppliers', obligations. Conversely, however, reasonable skill andcare does not necessarily mean compliance with each and every local law and regulation particularly where these impose absoluteobligations. You must show that reasonable skill and care has not been used if you wish to make any claim. (ii) For claims which do notinvolve death or personal injury, we accept liability, subject to paragraph (i) above and (v) below, should any part of your Package not beas described in the relevant brochure, on our websites or elsewhere by us (as applicable to your method of booking) before you leavethe UK.

This maximum will only be payablewhen every aspect of your Package has gone wrong and you have not received any benefit from your Package. Any sums received byyou from suppliers will be deducted from any sum paid to you as compensation by us. (iii) Where a flight ticket is downgraded or a flightcancelled, delayed, or boarding is denied by any carrier in circumstances which would entitle you to compensation under the DeniedBoarding Regulations 2004, then you are obliged to claim the appropriate sums pursuant to those Regulations from the carrier. Anysums received by you in this respect constitute the full amount of your entitlement to compensation for all matters flowing from thecarrier's actions and which fall within the scope of the Denied Boarding Regulations. If, for any reason, you do not claim against thecarrier and make a claim for compensation from us, you must, at the time of payment of any compensation to you, make a completeassignment to us of the rights you have against the carrier in relation to the claim that gives rise to that compensation payment.

(vi) If any International Convention applies to or governs any of the services or facilities included in yourPackage arranged or provided by us, or provided by any of our suppliers, and you make a claim against us of any nature arising out ofdeath, injury, loss or damage suffered during or as a result of the provision of those services or facilities, our liability to pay youcompensation and/or the amount (if any) of compensation payable to you by us will be limited in accordance with and/or in an identicalmanner to that provided for by the International Convention concerned (in each case including in respect of the conditions of liability, thetime for bringing any claim and the type and amount of any damages that can be awarded).
