All accommodation in Jersey must be registered with Jersey Tourism bur grading is optional. All the National grading bodies (the AA, Visit Britian/ Jersey quality Assured) now assess hotesl, guest accommodation and self catering to the same criteria and award one to five stars or one to five pennants for campsites. The rating reflects the overall quality of the experience.

Booking Early

It goes without saying that the earlier you book the more choice you have, especially if you’re looking to stay at a particular establishment. This is especially true if you are planning a self catering holiday during the main summer months.

We also have a great range of added value offers if you book early as many hotels give special deals if you book before a certain date.

You will also find that the best flight prices are available if you book early.

Booking last minute

We will always have last minute deals but these may not suit your requirements or may be in the higher priced establishment, or from a limited choice of airports. It is therefore risky to wait for a late deal. To be sure you get the right holiday it is always advisable to book early.
