A couple, who booked a budget romantic holiday in Spain for their delayed honeymoon after getting married during the pandemic, ended up buying cleaning products to scrub their “filthy bathroom” and were given a plastic cup for all their drinks including their morning cup of coffee, which they washed with shower gel. Magdalena Brylinska-Beaton, 36, and her husband Andrew Beaton, 37, were looking forward to their first couples holiday for eight years having not been able to go on their honeymoon after tying the knot in August 2021, but the romantic dream at the Sun Club El Dorado in Majorca turned into a “holiday nightmare”.
The couple, from Inverness, who booked the two star budget holiday through loveholidays, decided to change hotels five days early and compared their experience with being on TV’s I’m A Celebrity. Magdalena, a support worker and health care assistant, said she has “learned her lesson”, that booking cheap is a “disaster” and will never go below four stars again, even if it proves expensive.
“It was supposed to be our mini honeymoon because we got married in Covid times so we never went anywhere,” Magdalena said. “We were really looking forward to it but it was a holiday nightmare.
