The Costa Del Sol never looked so chic
4 nights Bed and Breakfast at Occidental Puerto Banus, departing 12th January 2025 from Manchester Airport. Price based on two adults sharing a one-bedroom apartment.
Puerto Banus is a little west of Marbella and has bays born for sunbathing. This hotel is just steps away from the yacht-filled marina, boujie shops and sandy beach. The two pools are surrounded by loungers and lush gardens. The rooms are minimalist and modern, and there are four restaurants. Grab a drink from the pool bar and pretend it’s not freezing back in the UK…
Morocco takes the win for winter sun in the New Year
7 nights All Inclusive at TUI BLUE Riu Tikida Garden, departing 10th January 2025 from London Luton Airport. Price based on two adults sharing a twin room.
Marrakech has such a buzz about it, with market stalls and mega mosques. Forget Oxford Street for your January sales, the souks are where it’s at… and they’re much cheaper. You’ll only be a five-minute walk to Jemaa el-Fna Square from this hotel, so you can easily explore the city on foot and retreat to your chill oasis when you’re ready. It’s adults only here, too, so no kids splashing in the pool or running around the gardens. It’s all cocktails on a lounger – All Inclusive, ofc – and the classic activities, like cooking classes and yoga that come with a TUI BLUE.
You might be full of turkey but there’s always room for pasta in Rome
3 nights Room Only at Fragrance St Peter Hotel, departing 28th January 2025 from London Gatwick Airport. Price based on two adults sharing a double or twin standard room.
This hotel is super close to the iconic St Peter’s Basilica in the cute Monte del Gallo neighbourhood. The rooftop terrace is the best part, with panoramic views of the Vatican – that’s amore. There’s a dining room for breakfast and you’re only a few minutes’ walk to the nearest shops to grab some local snacks. The Roma San Pietro train station is also nearby so you can sightsee to your heart’s content.
Aphrodite’s calling and she wants to set you up with Cyprus
7 nights All Inclusive at Louis Phaethon Beach, departing 12th March 2025 from Birmingham Airport. Price based on two adults sharing a twin room.
Cyprus is the perfect sunny escape while the UK’s weather is still warming up and Paphos has the perfect mix of beaches and ancient history. Sun yourself on the sand one day and daytrip to Aphrodite’s Rock the next. Plus, if you love a lounger and days by the pool, this is definitely the pick for you. This hotel has two main pools, complete with a pool bar for those midday drinks, and the beach is only a short walk away. You’ve got tennis courts and beach volleyball, and it just takes 10 minutes by bus to reach Paphos harbour.
January blues who? This hotel in Mexico doesn’t know anything about that…
7 nights All Inclusive at Riu Lupita, departing 14th January 2025 from London Gatwick Airport. Price based on two adults sharing a double room.
This hotel’s got ‘tropical oasis’ written all over it. It’s in an exclusive gated resort covered in palm trees, cacti and flowers, and you’ll have not one but four pools and plenty of restaurants to pick from. The VIP treatment continues with a shuttle bus that takes you right to the beach, so you don’t have to lift a finger – unless it’s to order your next marg, of course.
The Eurostar isn’t just for Paris… travel to Amsterdam by train, too, from £518pp*
4 days on a flight-free holiday with travel and accommodation included, departing 7th January 2025 from London. Price based on two adults sharing a room.
The Eurostar is a real win for travelling by train – hallo Amsterdam in just over four hours. And that’s four hours of crossing the Kent countryside, French Flanders and Belgium thank you very much – podcast on and those views will see you through. Amsterdam is a seriously popular city break, with its aesthetic canals, yummy bakeries and buzzing bars. It’s a haven for shopping and the museums and galleries are a must, plus, they’re perfect for escaping the cold. You’ve got three nights to get to know the Dutch capital and then it’s a direct train journey back home again, in partnership with Byway.
