Sir Alan sprinkles a little sugar on Jersey tourism

Filed under Accommodation, Eating & Drinking

If luxury hotels and private jets sound like your style of short break then the The Atlantic Hotel on Jersey might have the right package for you.

At the end of a recent episode of the popular BBC programme The Apprentice, three of the finalists were jetted off by Sir Alan Sugar on a private jet for a “Decadent Lunch Date” at the Michelin Starred Atlantic Hotel on Jersey.

In recognition of this and for those who perhaps haven’t quite gotten to Sir Alan’s level of wealth just yet, the hotel has created two similar packages, one including the private jet, and all the luxuries shown on the programme….but without having to go back to face Sir Alan!

- The Decadent Lunch Date at the Ocean View Restaurant is available for groups of 10+ and costs from £995pp which includes a return flight to Jersey by private jet, a visit to Faulkner Fisheries with head chef Mark Jordan, a gourmet lunch with matching wines.

- The hotel also offers the Atlantic Gourmet Break from £720pp which includes two nights in an Ocean View room with breakfast, a seven-course gourmet dinner with matching wines, a three-course table d’hote dinner, and car hire, but doesn’t include the flights.

The prices are still quite high, but when you consider the luxury of a private jet and that the head chef of the restaurant is Mark Jordan, it might make a little more sense.

Mark Jordan was himself an apprentice under the late Keith Floyd where his career really took off, with later head chef status at a number of England’s most prestigious restaurants including Gilpin Lodge in the Lake District.

If any of these sound tempting, more information is available on the Atlantic Hotel web site.

Alternative hotels: If those tariffs are a little steep then there are plenty of alternative hotels on Jersey from the five star Longueville Manor to small family run hotels and B&Bs.

If you plan to stay more than a few days, then there are also numerous self-catering cottages on Jersey

Where-ever you stay, you will be able to enjoy the same magnificent landscapes and sea views that have drawn visitors to this island for hundreds of years.

For a more detailed run down of the packages available, see the Daily Mail web site
