FAQs about Luxury Beach Holidays

  • What destinations have secluded beaches?

    Some of the best destinations to find secluded beaches include the Seychelles, Maldives and the Caribbean.

Having travelled far and wide, our experts know all the best-kept secrets. They can help you find the perfect secluded beach to unwind on, where the only sounds you'll hear are the gentle lapping of waves and the soft calls of native birds.

  • Where can I explore a range of beaches?

    If one beach isn't enough to satisfy your wanderlust, island-hopping is a fantastic way to see a breadth of locations. Destinations like Indonesia, Greece, and Thailand offer you ample opportunity to sample a huge range of beaches in a short space of time.

    Tell us what you want from your luxury beach holiday and we'll tailor your itinerary to include just that. From vast expanses of white sand to magical sea cave excursions, we'll put the whole spectrum of experiences within your reach.

    And if you want some time away from the little ones, our Explorers Kids Clubs cater to children aged from four months to 11 years and above.

  • Where are the best white-sand beaches?

    The world is brimming with beautiful white-sand beaches, each unique and special in its own right. It's impossible to choose a single one above all the rest, but some of our firm favourites include:

    There's nothing quite like the dream-like contrast between azure waters lapping against stark-white sand. If this experience is a must-have for your luxury beach holiday, let us know and we'll do everything we can to make it happen.

  • Do you offer luxury adults-only beach holidays?

    We believe that everyone deserves some rest and recuperation, which is why we're happy to offer luxury adults-only beach holidays that give you the quality time off you deserve.

  • How much do luxury beach holidays cost?
