Bondi Beach, The Harbour Bridge, and More in Sydney
Looking for a getaway that combines the best beaches with a city and nightlife that puts most to shame? Then look no further than Sydney, a fantastic mix of sunbathing and shopping. We recommend spending at least a few days here to be able to explore everything the city has to offer. Head to Bondi Beach for a family surf lesson, visit the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, venture inland to the dramatic waterfalls of the Blue Mountains and sail on the sparkling harbour waters.

More Than Partying, Visit Ibiza

Known for its party scene, Ibiza can be far more. With picturesque beaches and a historic town centre, there’s more to Ibiza than meets the eye. Dreamy pine-clad landscapes, glittering sea views and whitewashed villages are what we think of when we dream of a luxury holiday to Ibiza. In the north, stay at Six Senses Ibiza for it’s bohemian roots, wellness and eco-friendly philosophy. Another favourite of ours is OKU Ibiza, an escape that blends relaxation, trendiness and partying. Discover the authentic variety of this charming Mediterranean island.

Luxury Breaks in Dubai
Already a great option for winter sun, Dubai’s sparkling beaches are coupled with a second-to-none range of luxury shops and restaurants downtown that will cater to the whole family. You can also discover pockets of local culture, the vast desert for the adventure lovers where you can enjoy activities like dune safaris and incredible beaches including Jumeriah Beach. Some resorts look like grand European mansions, while others have the appearance of an authentic Arabian palace, either way, no stone will be left unturned.

Oman Holidays
Muscat may be the quintessential option for a beach and city break, with world-famous Qurum Beach and unique architecture like the Grand Mosque. Oman offers a great opportunity to explore a new culture whilst regathering your thoughts. Combine adventure with beach in the perfect Oman adventure itinerary where you will get to experience magical mountains, desert night camps and beautiful beaches. Oman is warm all year round, making it the perfect destination to enjoy as a couple or family at in the winter and summer.
