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.

    When you book a luxury beach holiday, you don't expect umbrellas as far as the eye can see and the roar of jet skis. You expect somewhere you can experience pure peace and bliss. 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.

    Let us get to know who you are as a couple and what you want from your luxury beach holiday. We'll then pair this understanding with our on-the-ground expertise to design an idyllic and intimate trip.

  • What are the best luxury family beach holiday destinations?

    Trips to the beach are always popular with children, and our all-inclusive luxury beach holidays are no exception to this rule. Our portfolio of luxury family beach holidays features child-friendly retreats in a range of locations, with more than enough activities to keep the whole family entertained during your stay.

    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. You won't need to worry about avoiding the school holidays or not being able to enjoy yourself to the fullest. Whether you want to bask in opulence and sophistication in an adult-only hotel or simply want guaranteed peace and quiet to unwind in, we can help you make the most out of your time away.

  • Do you offer luxury all-inclusive beach holidays?

    Our itineraries typically run from between five and 18 nights, giving you plenty of time to soak up the blissful freedom. You shouldn't feel confined to these periods, though, as we can tailor your luxury beach holiday to whatever timeline works best for you.

  • How much do luxury beach holidays cost?

    Our itineraries start at around £3,000 per person, but the final cost will depend on the specific experiences and details you choose for your luxury beach holiday.

    With tailor-made holidays, it's hard to give an exact price straight away, but you'll have complete transparency throughout the whole planning process and know the exact price before booking.
