We went last August, and luckily it wasn't uncomfortably hot, like we thought it would be. The crowds weren't too bad, but when the free dining plan started, it did get very busy. We've been at Christmas, and we didn't find the crowds as bad in August

Have fun with your planning

Hi Tracey,
Im really excited for you as your going to love the Royal Pacific.
We have been lucky enough to have stayed there a few times and will be visiting again this August ( never stayed this time of year ) and also we are staying in club level which again is a first .
The grounds and pool area are lovely and of course the added bonus of those room cards that get you to the front of rides etc just add to the ease of everything.
If I can help in any way let me know and I'm sure I have some pics if you want to have a look.
Take care
Cornish Pixie

What do you guys think to the price??
Just asked this on another thread too!!
i thought it was ok for school holls, not a bargain but ok!!

cornish pixie - i've pm'ed you.

Just one thing, if you're taking the kids, make sure virgin are not charging for them to stay in the room at RPR. I priced up earlier this year for HRH and they charged me for my 2 boys - if you book direct with universal you pay by the room and this worked out much cheaper! A good couple of hundred pounds less.

I might be wrong but please just check.

Also, if you book direct with Universal at the moment, you pay for four days and get 2 x adult park tickets free - hope this helps
