Forums - Beachclubs Kyacking

sandra posted 03 August 2008 @ 14:07. Why is kyacking always the poor relation we have been on three holidays now and always enjoyed the kyacking but have not yet found any rep who knows how to hold a paddle correctly or the best sitting/leg posistion.I have never found any left handed paddles and last two years they have only had right handed ones with no neutral ones nor varying sizes ( Yes there are such things as left handed paddles!!) you can get kyacking qualifications but this is never on offer, but i would settle for seeing some proper equipment and decent basic tips it would make it so much easier particularly for the yougsters when battling the waves. flight booking

posted 06 August 2008 @ 08:18. What an interesting question. I can honestly say I had no idea about the technicalities and just enjoy paddling about a bit. My son, on the other hand, was totally besotted with kayaking and would have chosen to do that all the time instead of sailing and windsurfing if he could, and I d be more than happy for him to learn how to do it properly. travel agent

Windsurfing - The Next Generation!

We were delighted recently to be given an update from our chums at the RYA about their recent RYA Team15 (T15) SW Regional Youth Windsurfing Championships held at Wimbleball Lake. The T15 involves a network of over 80 T15 windsurfing clubs, which meet on a weekly basis to practice and learn more about windsurfing. Youngsters are taught and coached on how to windsurf both competitively and for fun. Up to 15 of the best windsurfers from each club represent their club at four inter-club regional heat events over the summer, followed by the Team15 Champions Cup, the national final in October. orlando hotel

This third round event saw some fierce competition, but also, as you can see from the photograph, a lot of fun was to be had as well! There were some impressive performances from the youngsters and the really great thing about Team15 is that equipment is provided for children who don t have their own kit yet, so there s nothing to stop the talent shining through. booking agency

Neilson are proud to be one of the supporters of T15, along with our friends at Tushingham/ Starboard who supply the kit at our Beachclubs. Fancy finding out more about T15 Have a look here.......these kids did! Previous: Summer in the French Alps (04/08/2008) Next: Biking in Vass....it rocks!

Forums - Beachclubs Why no Willing-to-share at Dahab

P ete posted 20 February 2008 @ 13:20. I ve been trying since August last year to book a 2-week holiday at Dahab, commencing 24/04/08, on a Willing-to-share basis. But Sales seem unable or unwilling to add this option to the system. I wonder why ... Doesn t Neilson want single people at Dahab. online hotel booking

posted 20 February 2008 @ 17:01. Hi Pete, If we have enough rooms available there is no reason why we cannot add the willing to share option. Please get in touch with our reservations team again and they should be able to get this added. Thanks Wendy posted 21 February 2008 @ 13:39. travel insurance

Hi Wendy, I tried yesterday but Reservations said it couldn t be done, and I would have to pay the 182 singles-supplement. Which is a lot extra, especially as I would prefer to share than have a room to myself ! paris hotel

posted 21 February 2008 @ 18:10. That s crazy. There s some very stiff competition in Dahab and if Neilson aren t careful they ll lose a lot of business. Pete, if they don t relent take a look at the ClubVass website: http://www.clubvass.com/club_dahab/ posted 22 February 2008 @ 09:24. Hi Pete, First of all many apologies again for the problems you have been having with trying to book your wiling to share room. I can confirm that willing to share is available and that we have reminded our reservations team of this today. Please do call us back and one of the team will be available to assist you. Alternatively you could email sales@neilson.com and somebody will get back to you. Many Thanks Wendy. airline booking

posted 24 February 2008 @ 11:36. Jas, thanks for ClubVass suggestion. I ve taken a look at their website, and may well go further if I get this much trouble booking with Neilson again. This will be the third year that I ve been to Dahab with Neilson, and each time I ve had a lot of hassle getting them to make a willing-to-share booking. And I ve spoken to other solo customers at the Coralia who have reluctantly paid the singles-supplement after being told when booking that willing-to-share was not available there. travel trailer

Sometimes it seems they just don t want the business. posted 24 February 2008 @ 11:40. Hi Wendy, I phoned Reservations again on Friday, as you suggested, and got the same only sole-use-with-singles-supplement accommodation available yet again. However, after quoting what you had said, they went away and eventually managed to add a willing-to-share to the system, allowing me to make a booking. But I really don t understand why it should be so difficult to get a willing-to-share room at Dahab. To arrive at this point I have had to: send 3 emails of enquiry to Sales (only one of which was replied to, and that was to tell me that holidays at Dahab don t start until May !); then send an email to Customer Services (which asked for a reply but didn t get one); then, in desperation, send a letter to the managing director, Pete Tyler, in person (this too was not replied to); and finally, make the problem public in this forum. san francisco hotel

Fortunately, Neilson staff in the resorts have a completely different attitude to customers; otherwise, I would not keep going on Neilson holidays ! Pete - MD, Neilson User photo posted 24 February 2008 @ 23:32. Pete I am sorry you seem to be getting the run-around here. not sure why. Has it really taken you since August to make this booking I haven t received a letter from you regards this, did you send by post or email. Anyhow as Wendy suggests reservations should be able to add a willing to share room, if there is availability. Please drop me an email direct (pete.tyler@neilson.com) with a contact number and i will ask someone to call you. Jas was kind to suggest Club Vass as an alternative, I think you will find we are the only company that offers shares, so yes we do encourage single travellers. I have just come back from Dahab, great resort and great sailing. air ticket booking

posted 26 February 2008 @ 13:34. Hello Pete, it s good to hear from you. The letter which I sent to your Brighton office on 9th Feb, addressed to yourself, replicated an email which I sent on 31st Jan to the mailbox address which you give above. I can forward another copy of it to you if you wish. I was trying last August to take advantage of the offer of booking a 2008 holiday at 2007 prices, but although I emailed them 3. cheap travel

times, I couldn t get Sales to tell me what the price was for the fortnight I wanted; the deadline for the offer passed, and then the price of the April holidays leapt by over 200, so I left it until the new year, when I contacted Customer Services to try to clarify the situation. They didn t reply to me either, which is why I wrote to you to let you know what was going on. It was when April prices recently dropped by 350 (back within my budget) that I phoned Reservations, and, being frustrated by their refusal to make a willing-to-share booking, posted my query in this forum. bangkok hotel

You would have seen from my letter that I am a loyal and long-term customer and fan of Neilson, and I would have much preferred to discuss this in private correspondence, but if people won t reply to your emails etc, what alternative is there I am particularly surprised by the lack of response from Customer Services (which I have experienced before when I offered constructive criticism of some of Sales practices), because ignoring customers complaints is a sure way of pissing them off (- see, for example, the thread headed Complaint on your Yachting forum). music booking

Pete, there is no need for anyone to contact me now, thanks, as I have managed to book a shared room at the Coralia, and am just looking forward to getting out there. As you say, it s a great resort with great sailing (and diving!). But if I were in your position, I would be wanting to find out: (a) why my Sales and Customer Services departments don t answer customers emails; (b) why whoever opens my letters doesn t pass them all on to me; and (c) why my Reservations staff routinely try to force solo customers to pay a lot extra for sole use of a room at the Coralia, by pretending that shares are not available. travel and tourism

As I ve said elsewhere, I think that Neilson staff in the resorts are fantastic, and as a company, Neilson is unrivalled in its field; but I have been disappointed by the fall in standard of service from some of the UK staff in recent years. new york city hotel

Personally, as I usually know what I want to book, I would prefer to by-pass them and make bookings on-line. But that means that all the weeks, all the fortnights, and all the options (including willing-to-share) have to appear on the booking system, and at the moment they don t - for Dahab it s very patchy. air asia ticket booking

Heh Gavin. I was suspecting that you had stayed ..... as we couldn t see you on the minibus .... I am sure that you heard we were an hour and a half late leaving the hotel, it was an interesting experience dashing through the airport at Sharm, with a bit of queue jumping and panic as to whether check-in would still be there for us. We all managed to get back safely anyway. I think we all had the post-Dahab blues at the end of last week and certainly Monday was very difficult to get up for work, even though I technically had a lie-in instead of all those bike rides with Izzy! indian railway online ticket
