We booked a Rapid hotel transfer reducing the journey time from 2hrs to 40 mins. I suffer badly from IBS and need easy access to the toilet, this was the only transfer option suitable. Airport to hotel transfer was as booked, but the return was far from it. A standard coach turned up with the transfer taking over 2hrs and to make things worse we passed back by our hotel 1 hour after being picked up!! Ridiculous. The long journey time resulted in an IBS flare up & a lot of discomfort, which is why we’d booked Rapid transfer in the first place. We complained to On the Beach, heard nothing, had to chase them up & when they eventually replied it was clear they obviously didn’t care at all about the physical discomfort & suffering they caused me. If you value good customer service then steer clear of this company.

Booking was made in June for Edinburgh for the month of December 2024, My son and his girlfriend were due to go, they broke up, so my husband and i decided to go in there place , i started calling with my son present in September as he was lead he had to authorise name change, this has been on going since September we are now the 20th November, and they still haven't changed the names i have been calling and have been promised it has been done, but still not showing on booking and when i get through they tell me it still hasn't been done. They tell me they call yet the number they call me on comes up with suspected spam, then they tell me to reply to an email which you cant reply to as undeliverable message shows up. I have asked for an email , customer complaints they tell me its all done through the agents, yet they cant do basic things they have no authorisation to do anything. you have to go through an AI bot, then speak to an agent jezz i seriously am scared for humanity if the level of intelligence that goes on in this company is what we have for our future. I then get a call via a whatsapp message, telling me his from Love Hoildays and has changed the booking and details to go in my inbox and click to see the amendments, then to copy and paste and sent via the WhatsApp message ? i am not into tech i felt it off he then said it would be 100, i said no as on your company policy it states 25.00 each, but since this has been on going since September the company need to waver this charge, he told me don't go then, said he had more work to do and put the phone down. This is no customer service. This is not how companies should practice. a 1 rating is to high for this company, i want my money back full refund. you speak to the clowns on the phone they tell you something different every time The amount of times i have called the amount of time i have spent on the phone explaining myself, as i stated today I started this in September, we are now November, do i get to the airport name change hasn't been done on flights or hotel, then i have wasted 700. I will never use this company recommend it the best thing can be done if it goes down.

I had booked a holiday to Malta in January using a BA flight. The flight time was changed a few weeks after booking but I accepted that. Recently the flight was cancelled and rearranged for the next day but with no compensation for the loss of a day. My ten day holiday had suddenly become a 9 day break. To complicate matters a friend had booked the same holiday but received no notification of the cancelled flight. After a few conversations online and getting nowhere my holiday was cancelled without asking me and my money was refunded. Unfortunately my friend is struggling to get a refund as LoveHolidays claim they have not been informed of the flight changes by BA. I have used LH previously and everything was fine but not so good when things go wrong.

STAY CLEAR Love holidays mis advertised/sold the hotel we stayed in, our room was full of mold, dirty, unhygienic, loose live wires, broken toilet flush, broken unsafe shower drain, room never cleaned nor fresh towels in a week (even tho we constanstantly complained and asked) wouldnt give anymore toilet roll, we had to take it ourselves from the lobby washrooms, the toilet was dirty with wee and toilet roll when we arrived, the restraunt well...the plates and all of 10 soup bowls chipped, once soup bowls was gone you had to have soup from a paper cup, food was cold every meal every day, no entertainment at all apart from bingo one night and that wasnt even in english, we arrived at 10.08pm after a long day travelling, we was thirsty and hungry, no bar no snack bar nothing open, no water in rooms , we had to venture out to the supermarket, only do beer and wine in small plastic flimsy cups, and if english they always say they have no coke just fanta and sprite..yet the amount of turkish, germans we seen with coke..they actally locked away it in fridge from us..NOT all inclusive NOT clean Wouldnt pass health and saftey/Trading standards, Zero star rating, LOVE HOLIDAYS lie, falsey advertise, do not do relevant checks on hotels..and after providing video/picture evidence think £27.00 in total is exceptable as a refund...QUICK enough to take your hard earned money but not interested in customer service and resolving their errors afterward...AVOID book with a proper company, I am taking this all the way with them and to a court of law now thats for sure

loveholidays made an error with the hotel so we couldn't check in until 12 hours after landing. We were left to manage and call the supplier and loveholidays to try and sort out their error. The issue was not resolved and we had to pay out of pocket to resolve it, leaving us with no money to spend on the actual holiday. On top of this, we racked up a phone bill of £250 due to the calls between loveholidays and the supplier and loveholidays said they would not reimburse us for this. Absolutely disgusting service. Cannot resolve anything and will NEVER USE THIS SERVICE AGAIN.

Where to start. Holiday booked for 4 nights to leave on the 20 of Nov to Turkey. Going with family 2 separate bookings, same flight and holiday, travelling together. Find out 5 Nov via the hotels instagram page that the hotel has now closed for the season. We contacted LH separately to be advised they were not aware of the hotel closing and they would contact their supplier to confirm this was the case and to wait. We are now 10Nov and with my booking they are still awaiting confirmation via the suppier that the hotel is closed. The other family member on their booking have now received an email from LH relocation team that due to the hotel closing they have offered a different hotel and given them 2 days to decide. In the meantime I have once again contacted them to be told that the supplier has not confirmed that the hotel is closed. The advice was to wait and if they don’t get confirmation from the supplier that the hotel is closed we need to turn up to the hotel that was booked. Utter madness that we had to find out via an instagram hotel post that or hotel is closed. We are now in limbo, daughter has 2 days to accept are decline her relocation hotel. We don’t know what hotel we will be relocated to once they can confirm from I take it a different supplier that the hotel is closed. Bloody 💩 show.

Please please please avoid Love holidays. Book with last minute.com or another provider I cannot stress enough how terrible my experience with Loveholidays has been. My flight was booked for the 2nd of November, but just days before, on the 29th of October, I received an email from them stating that my hotel was closed and that I would be moved to a different hotel. To make matters worse, this new hotel was 40 minutes away from the original one, meaning I would no longer be staying with my friends, who had booked the same holiday and were not informed of any changes. I immediately requested a cancellation and a full refund, as the whole point of my holiday was to be with my friends. Loveholidays told me they couldn't refund the flights, only the hotel. I agreed to that, asking for a quick refund on the hotel so I could make my own accommodation arrangements. Days went by with no response, and by the time my flight was approaching, I still had no confirmation or clarity. On the day of my flight, I called Loveholidays several times, and each time I was given different, contradictory answers. One advisor promised a full refund, but it never came. When I followed up, they denied any promise had been made. Their customer service is a nightmare—slow, unhelpful, and full of lies. I was left feeling completely abandoned, with no place to stay in a foreign country, and as a result, I suffered a significant mental health breakdown. The stress and frustration from dealing with Loveholidays ultimately landed me in A&E. This whole experience has ruined what was supposed to be a joyful trip. Not only have I lost money, but the emotional toll has been devastating. I would strongly advise against booking with Loveholidays. Their lack of communication, dishonesty, and disregard for customer well-being has left me feeling utterly betrayed.

Wouldn’t book again with them. Unable to amend date because of death in family despite their claims you can amend holiday. Wrongly told our baggage allowance so had to pay extra….just such bad service never again will I book with them.

Do not use love holidays for your next travel plans. I upgraded my accommodation therefore obviously paid extra which was for a balcony and when I arrived ALL the rooms have balconies. They are not refunding any extra money I have paid. A COMPLETE SCAM AND THEY ARE THIEVES!!!

Unfortunately we also as many of you feel cheated after booking holidays with Love Holidays. Pictures and information is misleading. As we hadn't travelled abroad for years I just thought if we book through a company we'll be looked after. Only after buying the holiday we found out it is 250km away from the airport. When we tried to add a shuffle bus through their app there wasn't one available. Taxi would have cost us €700 and public transport 5 to 6 hours. So we ended up renting a car which additionally was another trap of hidden costs. The stress and disappointment definitely spoiled our holidays. (Hotel was in Rota, Cadiz, Spain and we arrived in Malaga airport) We tried to contact Love Holiday but there was only machine response.

Had fully paid for the hotel over a month in advance. When we arrived at the hotel, we were told that LoveHolidays hadn’t paid the hotel and that the hotel had been trying to get the money from them all weekend. When I contacted LoveHolidays they told me to “wait for some time” and an hour later of being sat at the hotel this wasn’t sorted. If it hadn’t been for the hotel clerk who had to angrily phone the company we may have never of had this sorted. I was told by LoveHolidays that I would get a full explanation of the issue, as well as compensation for the inconvenience and stress, yet once the issue was resolved their emails simply said “this issue is now resolved so we won’t be communicating with you any further.” The customer service is dismissive at best, and outright rude at worst. I would avoid this company at all costs as they do not care about their customers.

We booked the el oliviar on the basis it was a 5 star palace. We had the use of one bar (poolside bar) drank watered down drinks out from plastic & paper cups, even ice cream was not included in this 5 star all inclusive poor excuse for a palace. The pool and area was dirty not once was it cleaned out or hosed down. Only one restaurant which was like a canteen and served same food daily. My husband pulled the rep up at every opportunity for a complaints form to be told we don't have any, others were also told the same. There was 4 in our party we were devastated. Love holidays certainly did not check this hotel out as most videos & photos have been photo shopped. Don't waste your money on this hotel there are real 5star ones in marrakesh

APPALLING BEHAVIOUR A week before celebrating our 25th Wedding Anniversary in Barbados, mum sadly passed away. Obviously this meant we would have to defer our celebration. We contacted Love Holidays who asked us to commit to another date. We said now isn’t the time but ‘any time next year’ would be okay. They explained we would have to or lose all our money. So we picked a date in January but explained we wouldn’t be going then. This cost £25, no problem so far. Three days later they came back to say that date wasn’t available, again we said any date would be fine. They insisted we gave them three more dates. On the day of mums funeral they once again came back saying all those dates were not available. I explained today was mums funeral again they explained that they understood but we would lose the full amount of our booking if we didn’t give 3 more dates. We even said given their booking issues we would go to the Paphos as well as Barbados as an alternative, three days later whilst grieving they once again returned to say those dates were not available in either destination. Doubting this we rang the Mango Bay Beach Resort hotel in Barbados directly and were told,’yes’ definitely the rooms we booked on the dates we requested were available. We called Love Holidays who disagreed with our findings. By now the idea of celebration has completely disappeared. We rang to get through to ‘customer complaints department’ but it seems Love Holidays don’t have one! You guessed it, we were asked once again for three more dates. Three days later we received another call ‘yes we have a room at the Mango Bay Beach hotel on one of the dates. Great we’ll book it. However as the conversation developed yes we had a room but not the specification we had booked for our Anniversary it was much less by a road. It was also a little more expensive. When we crunched the numbers it was 40% more expensive or an extra £1,700!! We once again complained and eventually they said our issue had been escalated (not sure who to?). Two weeks passed with no feed back. I called them back again and the gentleman told me he had asked for this issue to be given more focus. That was seven days ago…NOTHING. All we want is a room of the same spec as originally requested any date next year (and is available according to the hotel) or a different destination, again we have given them all the details and dates for an alternative destination, for roughly the original budget we gave them. Or if this is not possible we understand, please return our monies whichever suits Love Holidays best. Their behaviour and lack of empathy at such an emotional time for ourselves has been appalling and incredibly upsetting… and it is still continuing. They are happy to take your money but not happy to help. DONT, DONT, trust this company. They are not a Travel Agent in the true sense of the word but an intermediary. I’ll let you know if this gets resolved, but in the meantime we will be taking our issue to other social channels to warn others. We have now taken legal advice and will be taking this much further.
