MW are advertising an evening listening service....no where does it mention a creche
I just looked Davel and what I read is "a supervised evening crèche"

No I do not mean the crèche.
If you care to follow the links I have posted you will see I refer to the baby listening service provided by Mark Warner holidays.

Cite, I have visited the websites and they talk about crèches.

Once again - the wording in the 2015-2016 online MW holiday brochure
http://www.markwarner.co.uk/family-holidays/summer


Child friendly holidays



Childcare is included in the holiday price for those children 2 to 17 years and for little ones from 4 months to 23 months it will be chargeable. We offer a free evening listening service for children from 4 months to 5 years and for the older children we run free, fully supervised evening entertainment. This evening childcare takes place from 7.30pm to 11pm. Please check childcare availability for your selected dates and hotel online or with our sales team.

Baby Club (4-11 months)

The Baby Club is a key element of our baby friendly holidays and provides a calm and comforting environment, just like home and operates on a ratio of one nanny to two babies.  We have a "keyworker" system in place, ensuring where possible your child has the same nanny throughout the week.

Your child's dedicated keyworker will take over your baby’s routine throughout their stay in the crèche and provide you a full update at the end of each morning or afternoon session together with a completed keyworker sheet.  All our Baby Clubs have a quiet sleeping area furnished with travel cots and clean linen.  In addition, there is a kitchen facility equipped with microwave, sterilisers, kettle and fridge for parents use.

6 Mornings: 9am to 12.30pm - £180 per week
6 Afternoons: 2.30pm to 5.30pm - £180 per week
6 Full days: 9am to 12.30pm & 2.30pm to 5.30pm - £360 per week

There is a free Evening Listening Service available from 7.30pm to 11pm for children aged 4 months to 5 years.

Baby Club is available at Levante Beach Resort, Lakitira Beach Resort, Helona Beach Resort, Lemnos Beach Resort, and San Lucianu Beach Resort.

It says "There is a free Evening Listening Service available from 7.30pm to 11pm for children aged 4 months to 5 years."

But that is not a room listening service Davel. Read the details of it on the page for Latikira, Lemnos, any resort, you will find it is, in fact, a centralised listening service, all kids in a central location, AKA a creche.

The fact remains they were trying to save money having a cheepo holiday- I find their use of the English language to slide from the truth to be abhorrant.

Can see the apartment...                actual Could not see into the apartment or hear the children if they woke up
we were checking the children...     listening at doors, not regulated
it was like sitting in the garden...    over 80 meters away having to walk around a pool.

Ok let's start with Sardinia

Click on "free evening activities" - read what the evening listening service is - it is a creche.

It is false advertising if that is the case. They should be referring to a free evening crèche.

"Can see the apartment..."

translate that from image-management-lingo to relevant fact:
 
"Can see the top half of the south facing exterior wall"

But you haven't fully read the website. BTW that's how this whole debacle started.
