Advantages: Good prices, user friednly website

Disadvantages: Poor selection of hotels

I've spent the last couple of months scouring the internet for a cheap deal. My boyfriend and I desperately needed a holiday but unfortunatly due to his daft car and my shopping habbit we didn't have too much moolah to spend on this lovely week away. Que Teletextholidays!

If you aren't too specific in the details you put in you get some right bargains come up! We immediatly knew we were going all inclusive purely to have a drink in the hotel bar for free before going out. For example at this moment I can get £220 all inclusive in Turkey! Absolute bargain... however there is a but...

Quite a major but as if you ask me... look for the reviews (usually on trip advisor) on those cheap hotels ad you see exactly why it is so cheap. Definetly something to check thoroughly before handing over your earned pennies.

You can look at Teletext holidays by you guessed it, using the teletext! The much simpler way is to go online so you get a description and photograph of the hotel. Then check the reviews while your online!

To book is slightly harder than if you were on something like Thomson or Thomas Cook. You have to look at who Teletext are advertising the holiday for, often a smaller company. You then have to ring the number they give you and quote the code on the holiday you're interested in. Some give links to book on the internet which I much prefer.

The search option down the left hand side is really easy to use and updates quickly. It also saves your search criteria for when you next visit.

Overall this website definitely offers the cheapest holidays but you do really need to do your research as with most of them there is a reason why the prices are so cheap!

Summary: Well worth a try.
