The original tropical paradise
Holidays in the Caribbean and Mexico need no introduction. This exotic location is bathed in sunshine all year round and offers some of the best beaches in the world, complete with swaying palms and pristine waters. The ultimate destination for a holiday in paradise, the Caribbean and Mexico are perfect for couples and families looking for a sun soaked, tropical getaway.
Those looking for both relaxation and adventure should head to Antigua, where both exquisite beaches and a range of water sports are waiting. Alternatively, head to Mexico to explore the fascinating ruins of the ancient Mayan civilisation at Chichen Itza or discover the second largest coral reef in the world. Mexico is perfect for families, too, boasting a range of activities such as zip lining, river tubing and snorkelling.
Luxury holidays in the Caribbean and Mexico are perfect for those looking to enjoy a relaxing, sun soaked retreat. This part of the world won’t disappoint; treating you to upmarket shopping, luxurious hotels, chic bars and, of course, world class beaches. The Caribbean and Mexico are peppered with luxury hotels, but Sovereign has found the best of the bunch. The elegant, boutique Galley Bay Resort and Spa is located on a stunning beach in Antigua, surrounded by tropical gardens and boasting sensational views over the lagoon.
Barbados is the most easterly island in the Caribbean, balancing a south-west coast of powdery white-sand beaches and celebrity resorts with a wild north-east coast of caves and surf towns.
Antigua is said to have 365 beaches – one for every day of the year. We haven't counted them, but you'll certainly be spoilt for choice, with everything from pretty scalloped coves to endless stretches of deserted sand artfully decorated with driftwood.
Mexico is a mammoth country with two coastlines. We focus on the Caribbean coast, where the Yucatan Peninsula serves up everything from glitzy beach resorts to mystical Mayan pyramids.
St Lucia boasts some of the most dramatic scenery in the Caribbean – rainforest-cloaked volcanoes, thundering waterfalls, hot springs and bubbling mud pools. Its most famous mountains are the Pitons: verdant twin peaks that have starred in hundreds of travel brochures and guidebook.
Whatever you choose to do, our family holidays in the Caribbean offer plenty of fun in the sun, whatever age your children are.
Look out for 'Mama Juana' in shops or on drinks menus. It's a potent mix of rum, red wine, herbs and honey that's meant to cure everything - it's delicious!
