  3. Winter Sun 2014/15

​While the festive season is now well and truly behind us, it's still a little bit too soon to shake off that winter chill, and quite a way to go until the official start of the great British summer. Which is why now is the time to consider how to get through the next few months of dark mornings and wet weekends.

Those blissful days and balmy nights of last summer – when the hardest choice you had to make was which beach to relax on; which spa treatment to enjoy; or which mouth-watering menu to work your way through – have no doubt long been forgotten. But here's some food for thought. Why not banish the winter blues with  a cheeky little winter adventure already arranged so you can dip your toes gently into 2015? ​

With many of our favourite destinations approaching capacity between now and March, and Easter already starting to look busy, now is a great time to get in early, avoid disappointment, and in some cases snap up a pretty good deal too! So pull up your laptop, tablet or smartphone, and take a look through our round-up of where to catch the best of the winter sun; the most idyllic spots for some post-Christmas R&R; or the lowdown on how to beat the clock when it comes to your Easter getaway.

You might not quite be ready to commit just yet, but we can hold some seats now and get the ball rolling so you can relax, safe in the knowledge that we can get you wherever the mood takes you whenever you're ready.

​Winter Warmers

Like a hot toddy: satisfying, full of warmth, and with just a little added spice, these holidays are guaranteed to kick the winter blues into touch.​

Let's face it, These post-Christmas months can be miserable. The festive spirit has well and truly dwindled, those pesky Christmas pounds are almost impossible to shift. ​

The days are short, the nights are cold, and spring just can't come quick enough. Little wonder many of us begin the search for an injection of winter sun as soon as Boxing Day comes. ​​

So it goes without saying that now is the ideal time to take advantage of our offers for travel between January and March to some of the world's greatest hotels as they'll be booked up before you know it. ​

​New Year, New You

Our guide to the most revitalising holiday experiences perfect for recuperating after a chaotic clan-filled Christmas.

Resolutions.  Make them or break them, we all create our list with a dogged determination (for a few days at least) that we're going to stick to them. Maybe we want to shed a few pounds; learn something new; spend more time together as a couple… but whatever we choose, 99% of the time our resolutions will be about improving ourselves or our way of life.  So to make those resolutions stick a little longer why not add a little pleasure to your pain?

Nowadays, hotel spas are more than just a couple of treatment rooms and a deep tissue massage. Big-name cosmetic brands are teaming up with boutique hotels and luxury chains the world over to create experiences that relax, revitalise and invigorate; enveloped in jaw-dropping settings that go above and beyond all imagination. Huvafen Fushi in the Maldives set the bar high when they opened the world's first underwater spa; while Ananda in the Himalayas is the spiritual pathway to the ultimate, discovered through the union of body, mind and soul and – according to Oprah – ​the most authentic spa experience you'll find. 

It's become an integral part to most peoples' holiday experiences too. Treatments take care of everything from jetlag, weight control, nutrition and fitness, to stress managem​ent, health and wellness, while the range of techniques, traditions and teachings collated from all over the globe is almost never-ending. Busy execs can rediscover their spirituality; couples can reconnect; kids have their own spa menu to choose from; or you can simply enjoy a spot of good old-fashioned pampering and indulgence. ​

Shed the pounds in Sicily with Verdura's 7-night weight loss programme; rejuvenate in the Turks and Caicos with Parrot Cay's yoga retreats; or get fit in St Lucia at The BodyHoliday LeSPORT with a truly personalised training programme. And if you still need your fix of something sweet, you can always head to the Iridium Spa at The St. Regis Mauritius for their chocolate-scented massage.

Hatch Your Easter Plans

Paradise for parents; cloud nine for kids… the whole world wants a slice of these heavenly resorts, especially come Easter, but these Eden favourites still have availability…

We know...  Christmas has only just passed and we're already talking Easter, but it's a sad fact of life that as soon as we ring in the New Year, the supermarket shelves are packed with Easter eggs instead of selection boxes.

It also remains one of the most popular times of the year for a break. Many families choose to get away at Easter over taking time out at Christmas so they can benefit from almost ever-lasting sunshine and better value at many of our far-flung destinations. Others simply can't wait to make a break for Europe after another long, wet winter.

So, with demand at peak levels, we've researched the very latest in availability so all you have to do is choose which of this lovely lot you can see yourself spending Easter at in April… ​
