Sounds like she had some valid criticism for the hotel as well. All inclusive package, but pay extra for water? Wtf.
But honestly, I have no idea why she would expect English food in Greece. Spain only does it because of all the English tourists, it's not an international standard to serve English food or something.
It was probably bottled water they'd been buying as they didn't want to drink the stuff out the tap.
Didn't want to risk getting ill with her condition I'm presuming.
Yeah but if alcoholic beverages are included in the all-inclusive, why not bottled water? Or at least sell it at a sane price.
£1.50 doesn't seem too bad for a bottle of water, if I'm being honest. Especially by hotel/resort standards.
It was an all-inclusive trip. It should be free, anything else is a scam.
Tap water is free and included
That's not in the article. It only says that water was £1.50. And the tap water on most of the islands is pretty bad.
I don't need an article to tell me that resorts have tap water. You see I have a brain.
Most resorts give one bottle per person in the mini fridge during service. If you aren't an asshole to staff you can get more readily.
