ADULT-ONLY ALL INCLUSIVE MAURITIUS FROM £1,459

PAY FOR 5 NIGHTS, STAY FOR 7

Backing a stretch of coral beach, this relaxed all-inclusive resort is known for its welcoming service.
From the moment you see the perfectly framed view as you arrive into the lobby you can appreciate the fantastic beachfront setting and chilled-out and friendly atmosphere of this east-coast resort. The focal point is the large infinity pool which is just steps away from the sands of the sweeping beach; the walk along the beach towards Belle Mare is an enjoyable way to while away a couple of hours. A trip here wouldn’t be complete without a spa treatment to the sound of the waves in the oceanfront palapa, or a trip out onto the lagoon on a kayak or Laser dingy if you're looking for a romantic interlude.
This offer includes 2 free nights at the hotel.

BALI AND LOMBOK WITH PRIVATE POOLS - 10 NIGHTS FROM £2,099

A slightly different way to explore Indonesia on this twin centre adventure, begin with 5 nights close to popular Ubud on Bali before heading across to the lesser-visited island of Lombok for a luxurious 5 night stay. Enjoy private pool villa style accommodation at both hotels for that little extra touch of luxury.

Your first stop is at the Ubud Village Resort & Spa, a wonderful mix of the pristine and the ancient. Villas are little slices of luxury, all with private pools. Swimming comes under coconut palm trees in a winding resort pool that feels like you’re gliding down a river. Breakfasts are fruit filled and taken in tropical gardens whilst sundowners come with views of green and gorgeous rice fields.

Take a ferry across to Lombok for a completely different experience at the Kayana Beach. This contemporary resort on Lombok’s north coast features all-pool villas and clifftop dining.
Coconut-white villas, towering palms, Tiffany-blue chairs and modern design; everything feels very cool at The Kayana. Overlooking the Lombok Strait, where the Java Sea meets the Indian Ocean, it's the ideal spot if you’re looking to hop over to the Gili Islands or plunge into blissful relaxation in a private pool villa.

You can select a complimentary spa treatment from a list including a Balinese Massage, Cream Bath, Reflexology, Herbal Body Scrub and a rejuvenating facial at Kayana Beach.

FRIDAY ATTITUDE, MAURITIUS - 9 NIGHTS FROM £1,499

Friday Attitude is a charming and serene property – perfect if you are seeking a great-value beach holiday.
Sometimes a beach holiday should be stripped back to cater for life’s simple pleasures. What we love about this great-value beach retreat is that you can just read a book under the shade of a palm tree, sip on a refreshing cocktail with the sand between your toes or lounge on a bean bag by the pool in the company of family or friends. There’s no pretension and no pressure to do any more than you please. This is a small and comfortable hotel with a small spa providing soothing massages or treatments.
You don’t need too many distractions when you have a white-sand beach and turquoise lagoon as pretty as those at the Friday Attitude. For a change of scenery – if you require one, that is – you can take a boat over to one of Mauritius’ most spectacular attractions, the Ile aux Cerfs, which is just half an hour away.
Your stay here is on a half board basis with two dining venues available for dinner. The resort also offers an exceptional value All Inclusive upgrade, which gives you a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks through the day, minibar, picnic baskets for day trips out and the option to dine at any other Attitude hotel on the island. (transfers at own expense).
