Haven’t Booked Your Next Holiday Yet? Here’s How to Save Without Compromising

Booking early can save you money, give you better choice, and help you spread the cost.

Top Travel Tips to Save:

- Book early – Secure the best rooms, flights, and low deposits now for 2026.
- Travel off-season – Think May half-term, preschool dates, or autumn escapes.
- Choose smart destinations:
- Caribbean (early season) – warm and great value
- Mauritius in summer – low 20s temps, often includes watersports
- Halifax, Canada (autumn) – stunning colours, from £799pp incl. flights & hotel
- European mountains – adventurous and cost-effective
- Madeira – excellent year-round value
- Travelling as a group? Villas can cut per-person costs significantly.

Why book with an independent agent like me?

I don’t focus on budget holidays—I naturally lean toward quality and luxury (and always try to find the best value). When you book with me, you get more protection, honest advice, and personalised service from start to finish.

I aim to get firsthand insight, either from someone who’s stayed there—or myself! I travel regularly to recommend destinations with confidence. And with my black book of trusted experts, you’re always in good hands.

Let’s chat—I’d love to help.

Since booking my large group to I’ve had so much interest in other trips here—so here’s my advice!

There’s truly nothing like The BodyHoliday. It includes everything: a huge range of activities (even scuba diving!), incredible daily 50-minute spa treatments, plus all meals and drinks. It’s perfect for couples, friends, singles, and even mothers and daughters. In summer, it’s open to ages 12+.

The start of the year is the most expensive, while UK summer offers the best value. Having worked with the hotel for years—and holidayed here myself—I can offer exclusive rates and amazing packages. Contact me to book!

Just booked the 5 star for a group of lovely women celebrating a milestone birthday, and I couldn’t be more excited! This brand-new all-inclusive resort, opening in October, offers a stunning coastal escape with a beautiful beach, incredible dining, and plenty of activities for both families and adults.

For adventure lovers, there’s no shortage of watersports, hiking, and cycling nearby, making it the perfect mix of relaxation and exploration. If you’re thinking of visiting Madeira, now’s the time to book—2025 rates are fantastic, but 2026 could see a big increase. A week in summer for a family of four, including flights and transfers, is around £4K—definitely worth considering!

I caught up with Hannah, the owner of Simpson Travel, and she shared her top foodie hotels for an off-the-beaten-track holiday in 2025.

✨ Arosmari Village Hotel, Crete
An adults-only retreat with 10 one- and two-bedroom cottages, perfect for a private buyout. Enjoy authentic Cretan dishes, local wines, and serene village life.

✨ Mochlos Blue, Crete
This boutique hideaway has just six suites in the peaceful fishing village of Mochlos. Think grilled octopus, fresh seafood, and tavernas by the sea—ideal for food lovers.

✨ Kalkan Regency, Turkey
A stylish escape on the turquoise coast, adults-only except during school holidays when families are welcome. Known for its organic garden, BBQ nights, and fresh meze, it’s a foodie’s paradise!

This week, I had the pleasure of meeting with the sales manager from and . Having visited Nevis numerous times and experienced many of the island’s hotels, I’d love to share what you can expect from this beautiful destination.

Nevis is a tranquil paradise where the motto is “rush slowly.” With its vibrant cottages, lush orchards, and amazing local restaurants, there’s so much to discover. You can tackle the challenging hike up Nevis Peak or unwind at luxurious resorts like the Four Seasons, the unique and charming Golden Rock Inn, and the stunning Montpellier. Each offers a unique experience, whether you’re seeking adventure or relaxation. Nevis is perfect for anyone looking for a laid-back escape with stunning views and rich history.

This month, I’m celebrating two major milestones—one year as a Travel Director and 25 amazing years in the travel industry!

I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to my clients, friends, family, the fantastic team and our key partners. Your unwavering support has been invaluable, and I truly couldn’t have achieved this without you. 💫

Over the past year, I’ve had the pleasure of helping clients celebrate milestone birthdays and anniversaries in the Caribbean, Malta, and Corfu, and bringing together multi-generational families in destinations like Australia, Seattle, and Africa. From golf getaways with friends to stunning winter retreats, it’s been a busy and rewarding year full of unforgettable experiences.

⭐️⭐️ As a token of my appreciation, I’m offering a special referral reward. From 21st September to 31st October, if you refer me to someone and they book during this period (with a minimum spend), I’ll send you a £25 John Lewis & Waitrose voucher as a thank you.⭐️⭐️

Thank you once again for your continued trust and support—I’m excited for the adventures that lie ahead! ✈️

🚀Rocket Garden Historic: rockets from Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs.
🚀Space Shuttle Atlantis: View Atlantis suspended in mid-air; interactive exhibits.
🚀Kennedy Space Center Bus Tour: Visit the Vehicle Assembly Building, Launch Complex 39, and Apollo/Saturn V Center.
🚀Apollo/Saturn V Center: See the Saturn V rocket; experience the Apollo 11 landing.
🚀Astronaut Encounter: Meet real astronauts and hear their stories.
🚀Astronaut Training Experience: For children aged 6 plus; hands-on training.
🚀IMAX Theater: Watch breathtaking space films.
🚀Space Shop: Largest space-themed retail store with a variety of souvenirs.

This year, the center has 90 launches scheduled!💫

I can book this as part of a package including flights and accommodation ranging from villa stays, hotels, and even Disney!
