Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Danika T. 7 May 2019 #### Absolute Paradise! We had the most marvellous times at Whispering Palms! From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed and were joyously welcomed by Silvi & John. We snorkelled most mornings straight out the front and one day were even lucky enough to have a pod of dolphins swim right up to us! The compendium that Marcello provided was amazing and had a lot of personalised suggestions for our day trips but in the end we enjoyed just being at home at Whispering Palms more than anything else. The home is comfortable and had everything we could ever need and is a perfect 40 minutes from town making it easy to get a taxi or bus in, but far enough out that you are in paradise and away from the tourist spots at night. I would absolutely love to return again!! ##### Danika T. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Dunster Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunster-Castle-Hotels.0-l6079329-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in Bilbao](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bilbao-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d6084357-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Balcón de Europa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nerja-Hotels-Hotel-Balcon-De-Europa.h1468173.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Holetown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holetown-Villas.d9290-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [Hoi An Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Da-Nang-Hotels-Hoi-An-Beach-Resort.h1522088.Hotel-Information) > > [Sercotel Caspe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Ayre-Hotel-Caspe.h1054421.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Durham by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Raleigh-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Durham.h519791.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Lecco Pontevecchio](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lecco-Hotels-NH-Lecco-Pontevecchio.h565729.Hotel-Information) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Bristol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d688-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Bermondsey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bermondsey-London-Hotels.0-n6145128-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Victoria Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cefalu-Hotels-Hotel-Victoria-Palace.h44393143.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Glasgow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels.d1334.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Tower Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Harwich-Hotels-The-Tower-Hotel.h35003914.Hotel-Information) > > [Globales Nova](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calvia-Hotels-Globales-Nova.h3566658.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Hotel Liverpool](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-Liverpool.h1847250.Hotel-Information) > > [Valamar Tamaris Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tar-Vabriga-Hotels-Valamar-Tamaris-Resort.h1207019.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Málaga (AGP) to Manchester (MAN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/agp/man/malaga-to-manchester) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Sharm El Sheikh (SSH)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/ssh/edinburgh-to-sharm-el-sheikh) > > [Flights from Ahmedabad (AMD) to Mumbai (BOM)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/amd/bom/ahmedabad-to-mumbai) > > [Flights from Teesside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/182671/flights-from-teesside) > > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Tours (TUF)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/tuf/birmingham-to-tours) ### Activities > [Things to do in Tranent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Tranent.d504352.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Rodrigues Island Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rodrigues-Island.d3034.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Prasonisi Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prasonisi-Beach-South-Aegean.d6123300.Attraction) > > [Bulgarian Parliament](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bulgarian-Parliament-Sofia-City-Center.d6097806.Attraction)
