🌴☀️ WELCOME HOME! ☀️🌴

A huge welcome home to the lovely Collinge family, who have just returned from a very special celebratory family holiday in Antigua! 🇦🇬❤️

Thank you so much for sharing your incredible photos and taking the time to send me your lovely feedback. It sounds like you’ve made some amazing family memories and celebrated your milestones in true Caribbean style!

The sunshine certainly delivered, with hot and sunny weather every single day! ☀️ The hotel sounds like it ticked plenty of boxes too, with fantastic food, lots of choice, wonderful butlers looking after everyone and, of course, the pool bar staff making sure those Pina Coladas kept coming! 🍹😂

The swim-up room was a big hit, and it was lovely that the girls had a room directly opposite, making it perfect for family time.

And those holiday highlights… WOW! 😍

🐠 Swimming with stingrays – what an experience!
🌅 Sunset evening at Shirley Heights with a live band and those incredible views.
🦞 BBQ lobster on the beach – how dreamy does that sound?!

It’s lovely hearing about holidays where families get to spend quality time together, celebrate special occasions and come home with memories that will last forever.

Thank you again for trusting me with such a special trip and for sharing your gorgeous photos. I’m so pleased you loved the Caribbean… I have a feeling it might not be your last visit! 😉

🇬🇷 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐓𝐄, 𝐘𝐎𝐔’𝐕𝐄 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐀𝐌𝐀𝐙𝐈𝐍𝐆! ❤️

We’ve had the MOST amazing time in beautiful Koutouloufari! If you love a traditional Greek village, pretty cobbled streets, gorgeous tavernas, good food and a relaxed atmosphere, this place is an absolute gem.

Our mornings usually started with a walk from Koutouloufari through neighbouring Piskopiano and into to Old Town Hersonissos, stopping for the odd Greek coffee along the way.

Hersonissos beach resort is just down the hill, giving you the best of both worlds. Plenty of beaches, bars, restaurants and shops, plus a lively nightlife scene. Perfect for groups of girls or lads looking for a bit more action! 🍹

🚗 OUR LITTLE CRETE ROAD TRIP

We hired a car for a couple of days to explore some of the resorts I regularly book for customers.

We visited Stalis and Malia (not quite my cup of tea, although I can see the appeal for younger holidaymakers), BUT Old Town Malia was absolutely gorgeous! Traditional square, lovely little streets and bustling local tavernas. We even picked up some local honey!

We also loved the cute fishing village of Sissi, spent time on the stunning Voulisma Beach, revisited beautiful Agios Nikolaos for gyros overlooking the lake and explored Elounda and Plaka, one of my favourite areas, with gorgeous views across to historic Spinalonga.

We also checked out Analipsi Beach and Gouves, and enjoyed a relaxing few hours at beautiful Bali Beach. Another definite recommendation!

🏨 WHERE WE STAYED – MARNI VILLAGE, KOUTOULOUFARI

Many of you will recognise this one as I’ve booked it for lots of my families over the years, so it was lovely to finally experience it myself!

We stayed in a gorgeous two-bedroom apartment with kitchen facilities. The complex has three swimming pools, lovely terraces, a restaurant and bar, friendly staff, swim-up rooms and private pool villas.

My personal tip? Don’t go all-inclusive here! There are SO many fantastic traditional Greek restaurants on your doorstep. We loved eating somewhere different every day, sampling the local food and w**e. We’ve still got a list of places we didn’t manage to try, so much so that we’re already talking about returning next year! 😂

It’s a brilliant option for families wanting a traditional Greek village setting with plenty going on within walking distance.

And that’s exactly why I love exploring the places I sell. Nothing beats being able to give customers honest recommendations based on first-hand experience rather than just a brochure!

Crete, you’ve certainly stolen our hearts. Until next time! 🇬🇷❤️

💙 “If you ever need a reason to understand why using a travel agent like Nicola our situation hammers it home. After an accident causing a knee injury we had to initially cancel and then rebook. Nicola took care of everything and supported us through the potential mine field that this was including arrangements for assisted access at both Manchester and Paphos airport.
We have just spent 7 nights in Cyprus at the Atlantica Akteon.
The Atlantica hotel itself is close to the airport meaning a 25 minute transfer. The brochure pictures of the hotel depicts it as a quiet hotel. This isn’t the case. The entertainment team provide all day activities and games as well as loud music being played through out the day from 8.30am till 11.30pm around the main pool and pool bar. There are a few quieter areas that you can find if you want to just relax, snooze or read your book. The indoor pool, spa and gym, all being inside the main hotel were a haven or calm and I always found myself alone to work on my knee physio.
The hotel room themselves were spacious with each room providing a fridge, sink, tea and coffee facilities and a dining table and chairs. Every room also had an outdoor seating area. Bathrooms were nice, however all rooms have a shower over the bath which may have been an issue if my mobility had not improved. Everywhere was spotless and meticulously cleaned. The food at the hotel we found to be superb and varied, with deserts to die for and an amazing cheese board. Every day there was amazing salad and fruit selections. During meal times they provided table service of w**e and b**r all of which we found to be very acceptable. As part of the AI package you also get access to the Al a carte restaurant for 1 night which is definitely worth doing. If you do fancy venturing out of the hotel for a trip they offer bikes for hire, if you aren’t feeling that energetic the bus is a 5 minute walk, a day pass is €6. There is also a lovely coastal path that runs from Paphos to Coral bay which is excellent for a walk with a selection of art and sculptures along the route including sunset hearts for pictures as well as the Paphos big chair.”

💙 Thank you so much to my lovely regulars Gareth and Erica for your most recent photos and review of your time in Paphos. Lots of blue skies, sunsets and smiles - just what I like to see! Thank you for sharing as always.

🎃✈️ HAPPY HALLOWEEN, TRAVEL LOVERS! 👻🌍

Who says Halloween has to be all tricks and treats? Some destinations take spooky season to a whole new level!

💀 DID YOU KNOW?

In Mexico, Día de los Mu***os (Day of the Dead) is celebrated on 1 and 2 November, when families honour and remember loved ones who have passed away.

Cities and towns come alive with colourful decorations, marigolds, music and beautifully decorated altars. It's a fascinating cultural tradition that attracts visitors from around the world!

And despite the skeletons and skulls, it's actually a celebration of life, love and remembrance rather than a spooky Halloween tradition. 🌼
