Award-winning luxury holidays

Crete has more than its fair share of pretty harbours and sandy beaches, but the island has a dramatic side, too – inland, its landscape is slashed with gorges, scored with valleys and dominated by mountains. Luxury hotels are scattered along the island's north coast, in towns like Elounda and Aghios Nikolaos. 

Cyprus is definitely one of those places with something to keep everyone happy. With some of the best stretches of sand in the Med, as well as some lovely shingle beaches. The island's archaeological sites date back to the Bronze Age, while you'll also find walking trails, cycling routes and off-the-map hamlets in the Troodos Mountains, and wildlife trails around the Akamas Peninsula.

With its sandy beaches, diverse scenery and year-round sunshine, Tenerife has been drawing in holidaymakers for decades. You'll find the bigger resorts Costa Adeje, Playa Paraiso and Playa de las Americas in the soutgh of the island, as well as the island’s best beaches. The north of the island showcases a lush landscape.
