In January we announced that Pearly Grey is now a resort that our customers can visit.
We have now had chance to get some feedback from several of our customers who have been to Pearly Grey. A Skychoice staff member has also been sent out to Tenerife to check it out.
The results have been so impressive that we have decided to make Pearly Grey a Skychoice featured resort.
We have also created a Pearly Grey micro site where you can find out lots more about this impressive resort.
