Holidays with On the Beach

Hottest 2025 holidays and deals

We've whipped up these GORGEOUS deals so you can get your 2025 holidays sorted. You can bag one of these beauts from just £30 per person and pay in instalments thanks to our flexible payment options. But if that's not enough to convince you to snap up a jolly, take it from Mark from our Supply team who actually stayed at Constantinou Bros Athena Beach and couldn't stop raving about it. 'The best thing about the hotel is that it's a 20-minute walk from Cyprus' #1 waterpark. Plus, the breakfast buffet was fantastic...think made-to-order American-style pancakes with syrup or chocolate sauce.' OK, that's enough Mark. We're drooling now 🥞

Got beach on the brain but no clue where to go on your 2025 holidays - let alone how to sort your transfers, flights and all that jazz? Whether it's a Canaries break you're after (like our holidays to Fuerteventura) or a long-haul trip to paradise, that's where we come in!

Just think of us as your beachy godmother, dressed in flip-flops and sunnies. From cheap holidays to big package holidays, action-packed all inclusive breaks and everything in between - we've got it all, and we'll handle all the nitty-gritty bits for you too.

'Round these parts, we're firm believers that holiday mode should start ASAP (like, from the moment you start craving Fanta Lemon and the smell of sun cream), not just when you land. Wherever you're heading - Spain or Sardinia, Costa Brava or one of our Cape Verde holidays, we've got you covered. Ready to add one of our holidays to your diary? Good, so are we. You might want to dig that suitcase out...

Where should I go on holiday?

It's a question we ask ourselves far too often (usually closely followed by an annual leave request to our managers - sorry guys!). To beach, or not to beach? We'll always have a soft-spot for the sandy stuff, but that doesn't mean we don't show our city breaks plenty of love too, and if you're looking to jet off, like, now, then they're the perfect pick for your 2025 holidays.

Deciding we want a holiday is the easy part, though, it's choosing where that throws a spanner in the works. Holidays to Tenerife with their year-round toastiness? Greece with its mega pools and feta-packed buffets? Turkey holidays with their whopping waterparks and Blue Flag beaches? We could spend hours just drooling over the pics, and believe us - we have! But if you don't have hours to spare, we've done you a solid by narrowing it down to a few of our most popular holiday spots below. From holiday weather to things to do, this is everything you need to know about these holiday gems. Happy browsing ☀️

When should I go on holiday?

Whenever the heck you want! And don't let anyone tell you otherwise. That's the beauty of beach holidays - they're not just for summer, they're just as good all year round, we're talking anytime from an early Spring escape on an April holiday, to a Christmas market jaunt on a December holiday, to a Halloween fest on an October holiday! We've got a whole bunch of destinations up our T-shirt sleeve to give you that toasty sunshine  - even in winter (hello, Lanzarote holidays).

Whether you're looking for a family holiday or you're a teacher just trying to get some peace and quiet around term time (we're so sorry, how do you do it?), we've got you covered. Even if you're just gagging to jet off somewhere last minute, you're well sorted. Have a snoop below to see what the weather's like throughout the year in our top holiday spots. (Spoiler: it's warmer than back home.)

On the Beach are nominated at the British Travel Awards 2025!

Who should I go on holiday with?

Choosing who you're holidaying with is like picking your karaoke song – get it right, and you're a hero. Get it wrong, and it's gonna be a looooong night. You've gotta find your crew that're the karaoke equivalent of Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On. Otherwise, just imagine the kids' faces at a zen spa retreat – about as impressed as cats in a bath. Or picture your party crew's horror when they rock up to a family resort where the bar closes early and nobody's up for a night out. Thankfully, we've got something for every holiday type - even the solo kind! So, who's in your sun squad? Choose wisely...

What types of holidays are there?

Well, just like the brekkie buffet at an all-inclusive hotel, the options are endless! Luxury Caribbean breaks without the kids (or with them, you do you), action-packed city breaks, all-inclusive Turkey trips. Vacays come in all shapes and sizes, so tell us what you want (what you really really want), and we'll whip up the perfect trip for you - whether you're browsing last-minute holidays or looking to plan the stag do of all stag dos on a Benidorm holiday. Doesn't matter if it's just you and boo, a whole fam shebang, a budget beach affair or a no-expenses-spared boujee break - we've got you. So, what're you still doing here? We appreciate the company, but get browsing. Let's get this vacay started...

What kind of hotel should I book?

We've got hotels coming out of our ears, so whether you're looking for somewhere with the funkiest hotel rooms (think of the Insta pics), somewhere you can practically roll out of bed and into the pool (splosh), or just somewhere with SO MUCH going on that you won't have to hear the kids say they're bored once - we've got you covered. Don't believe us? Have a peek 👇

Where can I fly from?

We've got access to flights all over the shop, so you can travel from an airport that's convenient for you. We're good like that. Northerners, Southerners, West Midlanders - we don't judge. Have a nosy at just a few of the airports you can fly to and from when you book a package jolly with us:

Where to go for your 2025 holidays, with...

🧘 Chilled vibes 🧘

If hustle and bustle are two words that don't make it into your holiday vocab, then try heading for a relaxing resort in Greece. There are tons of quiet hotels in Greece that avoid the chaos without scrimping on things to do. You can opt for less waterparks, nightclubs and aqua aerobics, more swim-up rooms, beach cabanas and cocktail bars. And if you fancy going one step further than Greece, then why not try somewhere like the Maldives or the Dominican Republic? Private resorts and white-sand beaches...it doesn't get much more relaxing than that!

❤️ Romantic vibes ❤️

If you fancy upping your romance game, then where better than the city of love? AKA: Rome. Paris is also pretty up there in terms of romance. We mean, what could be cuter than sharing a baguette under the Eiffel Tower? And no, that's not a euphemism. For those of you who can't go without the beach vibes (of course we understand), Greece is another great shout for some 10/10 couple time - especially those Santorini sunsets. Bring a camera 😍 (Or just your phone - no one really carries cameras around anymore.)

🏖️ Beach vibes 🏖️

For no particular reason, this might be our favourite section. Luckily, we do know a thing or two about beaches, so if you can't book a jolly until you know there's some sand and sea within walking distance, don't worry. Turkey's got you covered with its HUGE offering of Blue Flag beaches (which is a really big deal in the beach world), you can't go wrong with a Spanish classic like Majorca for the family beach vibes, and if you like your beach with a side of scubadiving then Egypt holidays are calling your name.

🏄 Fun vibes 🏄

Can't sit still? We've got vacays where you won't have to, and neither will the restless teens. If the sea is your playground then the Canaries are your go-to spot for watersports. The windy shores are perfect for surfing, parasailing and more. But if you prefer your activities to be in the pool or on land, Turkey's mega selection of waterparks and theme parks always delivers (we're looking at you Land of Legends), and Cyprus has some pretty big waterslides up its sleeve too!
