Only a week to go until the fun begins and we are very excited here as we make all the final preparations!
As is often the case with holidays and trips, unexpected costs arise that force operators to impose a surcharge. Unfortunately in this instance we are not immune from that aspect of business. Changes in the local taxes levied on accommodation occupancy means that CenterParcs have presented us with a large unexpected bill. The total bill to us is from the local Government - it's a local occupancy tax that was not charged to us in 2007 so we didn't expect it for 2009.
Therefore we will be asking for a 5 Euro per person surcharge payable upon checking in at CenterParcs please. We are very sorry about this. Please can you make sure that you all have the cash (in Euros) to pay this and please inform everyone in your party. The bill is much higher than 5 Euros each but we are of course sharing the burden with you.
We realise this is short notice and we are very sorry for any inconvenience.
We appreciate in advance your support on this matter.
