I have been looking at the Bahia Principle Cayo Levantado hotel, would fly out from the UK, but the only english travel company picked up on the reviews is First Choice. I have looked on their website and can't seem to pick up this hotel. Whether this means that its continually booked up and not showing up, or its no longer on their website.

Can anyone (UK based) say who they used, what travel company or website etc. Many thanks.

Don't know when you are thinking of going but at the moment First Choice are the only UK company going to BPCL and only until the end of the summer brochure October. For 2009 I think that both Thompsons and First Chice will go there (same company)from April/May onwards Summer Brochure

Hi, as per Rosedene comments for next season you can get there with either Thomson or First choice. The flights are with ThomsonFly fortnightly on a Friday. I think the first flight out is 1st May 2009.

This year the flights are with FC fortnightly on a Thurs with the final flight out 16th October

For 2009 It seems to work out cheaper through FC website than Thomson. Not sure why as they are now the same company. We booked a couple of weeks ago for May 2009 as we had such a great time last year.

I can confirm what everyone else has said, only First Choice and Thomson have this Hotel on offer from May - October, we booked through Thomson this time,as they were the first operators to offer their holidays for May - Oct 09, and as we had been before, we wanted a certain Villa........so we booked early.

Just wanted to add that the flights are now weekly on a Friday from 1st May 2009 but it does look like the secret is out about just how great this place is as a couple of dates in May next year have already sold out according to the FC website.
