If you’re looking for inspiration of where to go next, here are some of our top offers for the year ahead:

Lanzarote

Easter is a great time to go to the Canary Islands and we love the Princesa Yaiza as the accommodation is spacious for families, the kids club is fantastic with its very own football academy, tennis lessons and fun kids entertainment all day, plus the beach is golden sand and a lovely bay perfect for little swimmers. There’s even a water sports centre with lots of activities available. Prices start at £5200 for a family of 4 including flights and accommodation.

Mauritius

If you’re looking for a luxurious getaway, then a holiday to Mauritius is the ideal choice. One of our favourite hotels is Lux Belle Mare, located on one of the best beaches with sweeping sea views. The resort’s interiors showcase style and class courtesy of celebrated designer Kelly Hoppen. Guests can enjoy activities such horse riding on the beach and golf nearby plus an array of water sports – including windsurfing, kayaking, snorkelling, big-game fishing and water skiing. There’s even the option to catch a movie on the beach in the evenings. Prices start at £1750 per person.

Lapland

Create memories to last a lifetime, by taking the children on a magical adventure to Lapland. Visit Father Christmas at his cabin in the forest as well as the chance to go snowmobiling, huskie-sledging, a reindeer sleigh ride and maybe even a glimpse of the northern lights.
