Summer definitely feels like it’s over for the year this week, and I am already longing for some sunshine again. The idea of winter sun is very appealing, and I’d give a lot for a luxury week in the Bahamas right now! Gorgeous, tropical weather, beautiful white sand and blue skies sound incredible and a world away from my current view of a dull, grey sky and definite jumper wearing temperatures
If you’re looking for luxury holiday destinations, I’ve got some great ideas!!
Florida
It’s not just all about the theme parks, Florida is home to beautiful beaches, balmy year round temperatures and some extremely luxurious hotels. Head to Miami for an eclectic mix of culture, great restaurants, nightlife and beach life!
If a big city isn’t really your thing, try Naples, where 80% of the land is protected, and the beach seems to go on forever.
If you can’t visit the Sunshine State without a trip to Walt Disney World, The Grand Floridan is a great hotel to stay in. You can catch a boat or monorail into the parks, enjoy one of the many restaurants, catch the characters for breakfast or dinner, relax by one of the many pools, and watch a movie under the stars. There’s no better way to experience the magic!
St Kitts and Nevis
St Kitts and Nevis are twin islands, less commercialised than some of the other islands in the Caribbean. If you want to experience a true island holiday in paradise, this is the location for you.
There’s a volcanic mountain, miles of beautiful golden sandy beaches and all the green tropical foliage you’d expect for this area of the world. Whether you want to relax by the beach, explore for a week or immerse yourself in the history of the island, there’s something for everyone.
Australia
Head down under for the adventure of a lifetime. Australia is like several holidays in one with tropical rainforests, incredible wildlife, almost desert like landscapes and cities full of culture and sports.
Start your trip to Sydney in New South Wales, see the infamous Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge, and then head to the Blue Mountains, rainforest, and outback towns for a complete change of scenery.
The Northern Territory is home to Uluru and the Olgas, it’s a great place to learn about the culture and beliefs of the Aboriginal people. Alice Springs is a must see town on any trip through the outback with a huge array of outdoor activities to try. Bathe in freshwater swimming pools, take a camel ride and most definitely visit Kings Canyon.
If you visit South Australia, wine tasting and Kangaroo Island are must-do activities!
Don’t forget the beautiful golden beaches of Western Australia too, via a visit to Perth of course.
Bonaire
Bonaire is a Caribbean island off the coast of Venezuela known for its calm turquoise waters, colourful coral reefs, and diversity of marine life. Windsurfing and scuba diving are popular activities that allow you to experience the island’s natural beauty. Pink flamingos can be seen at the salt flats, and there are tranquil beaches, historic sites like slave huts, and Washington Slagbaai National Park’s lush inland scenery. The arid climate brings little rain but constant sun and gentle breezes. You’ll need to pay a Bonaire tourism tax before you get there, but it’s easy to do online.
Maldives
Last but definitely not least on my list is a trip to the Maldives. The Maldives is home to incredible beaches filled with clean white sand, endless sunshine, and a certain break from the stresses of everyday life. It’s a great location for scuba diving in the Maldives, with over 1,000 species of fish, making it perfect for adventure seekers or those just wanting the ultimate holiday doing nothing at all!
