The weather in Gauteng this week is sunny but cold. I’m really not a winter person and I find that when it gets this cold I just want to catch a flight to warm sunny weather where I can chill on a hammock and drink a fruity cocktail that probably has way too many calories.

Currently we are on almost every conceivable red list and have only a handful of destinations that will have our South African passports. Dark days indeed. But it’s not all gloomy and cold we can still go to Zanzibar and Maldives. Think white Sandy beaches, swimsuits, beachside loungers, hammocks…and guess what? If you are up for it we have incredible rates for three 5 star resorts in the Maldives that are really begging us to leave sunny icy Gauteng. Are you game?

It’s hard to believe that it was only 2 years ago that this was the best time of the year to book for bargain island escapes. We had choices aplenty from Bali, Phuket, Zanzibar, Mauritius. Covid 19 has really made us rethink our travel bucket lists but many of us still long for those Indian Ocean breaks.

The good news is that the Seychelles announced that it will open for vaccinated South Africans. Days later Phuket tourism made a similar announcement for international travellers, we are still hoping South Africa is on the list. No 14 day quarantine but tourists will not be allowed to travel to other regions of Thailand, I can live with that. Mauritius is still closed, and Bali still requires the 14 day mandatory quarantine on arrival. But we are so grateful to Zanzibar, Kenya and The Maldives for quarantine free beach breaks, and they are all still the closest we can get to paradise during this pandemic.

Zanzibar from R10 285 per person sharing: 7 nights Filao Beach Resort 3* breakfast and dinner daily, return flights from Johannesburg.

Mombasa (Kenya) from R14 365 per person sharing: 4 nights Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort &Spa 5* all inclusive (all meals & selected drinks), return flights from Johannesburg

Malindi (Kenya) from R13 999 per person sharing: 4 nights Sandies Tropical Village 3* all inclusive (all meals & selected drinks), return flights from Johannesburg

Maldives from R21 250 per person sharing: 7 nights Biyadhoo Isoand Resort 3 * All inclusive, return flights from Johannesburg.
