5* Luxury Skiathos from £899pp*

With a picturesque setting amidst a thicket of olive and pine trees, Elivi Skiathos might just have it all. We’re talking beachfront location, swish pool scene, luxe spa, and a whole host of family-friendly ways to fill your days – what more could you need?

This place goes big on the beach access – there are four within walking distance, including the popular Koukounaries beach that comes with a slew of bars and restaurants and a long belt of powdery-soft sand. If you prefer to kick back poolside, meanwhile, there are two swim spots to choose from, with plenty of thick, comfy sun loungers to go around, and a pool bar to ensure you’re never without a cocktail.

And you can expect to be well fed during your stay as well. Breakfast is a delightful buffet of freshly cooked favourites, while for lunch you can pick between a beachfront taverna that specialises in fish, and a Mediterranean trattoria that serves pizzas and pastas. Come dinnertime two more places open their doors – a sophisticated Mediterranean spot and a Japanese meat joint.

There’s practically a bar for every eventuality here, too. Watering holes are pitched up along the shoreline of all four beaches, as well as by each pool, so you’re well and truly sorted on that front. Finally, there’s a sophisticated tapas and cocktail bar where you can grab a drink or a bite to eat and soak up the vibes.

Wild Glamping in Sri Lanka
10 nights of escape from £1959pp

An out of the ordinary travel experience made extraordinarily easy. On the edge of wilderness, this is off-grid glamping for adventurous souls who want to leave just a gentle footprint.

If you fantasise about ditching the tech (there’s no Wi-Fi or mobile reception here) and switching the commute for a route that leads to a nirvana-quiet mountain village paradise, here’s your chance. On a 30-acre farm in Rathugala, home to the indigenous Vedda people, you’ll swim with views of dove-white misty mountains and drift off to sleep under iluk grass roofs.

Your open-air ‘tents’ have all the creature comforts you need whilst still feeling nomadic. Food, sourced from the farm or freshly lake-caught, is some of the finest in Sri Lanka. Seeing the greats of the animal kingdom in Gal Oya National Park is like winning a golden ticket as is walking through the jungle with a Vedda guide revealing the secrets of medicinal forests.

Price based on 2 sharing a Luxury Twin Tent for 10 nights on BB. Transfers and luggage allowance included. Departs 30th Sep 26 from Heathrow. Other dates and airports available.
