    Folks,
    Maybe you can help here.

    There's a group of 16 of us going away on a trip March 1 - 4 (give or take + - a day or two)

    I've been asked to come up with ideas. The flights and accom can come to no more than €220 all in per person. Ideally we want a Villa - one with 10 beds will suffice (rest can sleep on ground/couch) but any more beds an advantage

    We literally don't give a damn where we go! Just somewhere drier/warmer than Ireland. Ideally we'd like to go somewhere with a bit of life (we're all students) and close to a beach.

    Any suggestions at all? We initially were going to Tenerife, but flights went up. Then Malta, but again yesterday flights went up. We're booking the flights on Monday

    Thanks folks

    -EDIT- No checked in luggage, all hand luggage

    maybe this is a job for a travel agent? You are spending 3500+ euro so you surely have some leeway.

    I randomly looked up one, http://www.cassidytravel.ie and came in with a deal working out at 270 a head on the first place i tried in spain. With some rummaging you'd do better.
    Or simply pick up the phone and let someone who is in the business do all the trudge for you.

    Another advantage of using a professional for such a large group is that they can reserve everything on their system holding it till you have the cash gathered rather than you trying to coordinate the nightmare of 16 people to either all book flights ASAP
    (and remember that a cheap flight price online may only be available for the first 5 or 6 people booking leaving the risk that the others pay more+then back out as its too dear which means that you then need to re-look at accomodation ......)
