Budget-friendly deals on luxury holidays

Yep, they're a thing. Holidays are always on the cards for us - next week, next year (shout-out to our 2027 holidays) - so why not make it easy on the eyes and your wallet? We've picked out three super-swanky spots that'll have you living your best life in no time. Don't just take our word for it, though. Paul from our Marketing team recently took a cheeky trip to Mitsis Blue Domes and he hasn't stopped banging on about it since. Especially the gyros takeaway along the beachfront. Oh, and the cocktails from the bar next to reception. And the fact you can access all the restaurant menus on your phone before you even get there. Yeah. He talks about it a lot.

Luxury All Inclusive Holidays

Why choose between luxury and all inclusive when you can have both? Luxury all inclusive holidays take everything you love about a five-star getaway – the stunning rooms, the à la carte restaurants, the spa, the poolside service – and wrap it all up in one price so you never have to think about a bill again. No signing for drinks, no tallying up dinner tabs, no end-of-holiday invoice that makes your eyes water. Just pure, unapologetic indulgence from the moment you check in to the moment you (reluctantly) check out.

The best luxury all inclusive resorts go way beyond the standard buffet-and-a-beer setup. We're talking Michelin-star menus, premium cocktails mixed by someone who actually knows what a Negroni is, private beach cabanas, and spa treatments included in the price. Turkey does luxury all inclusive like nowhere else – five-star resorts in Belek with marble spas, multiple à la carte restaurants and entertainment programmes that could rival a West End show. Greece brings the Mediterranean elegance – think beachfront resorts on Corfu or Kos with complimentary wine lists curated by sommeliers and dine-out experiences at local restaurants, all included. And on the Costa del Sol, you'll find some of the most talked-about luxury all inclusive hotels in Europe, with Michelin-starred chefs, private pools and enough facilities to keep everyone from toddlers to grandparents entertained.

Here are three luxury all inclusive hotels worth getting excited about:

Best holidays with boujee vibes

Don't worry, we've got lots of 'em. We're talking all the five-star essentials you could ask for on your 2026 holidays, from a la carte dining to swanky facilities. But why stop at five-star bliss? We've got the ultimate treat yourself picks, like one of our swim-up room stays, or you can ditch the noise and find your next perfect stay away from the kids (hey, we're not judging).

We've got luxury jollies for everyone...

We don't care what anyone says, staying in a proper fancy hotel just makes your holiday feel super special. Bubbles on arrival. More restaurants than you can shake a stick at. Swim-up rooms. Bathrobes and slippers. That free little basket of fruit in your room. And newsflash: it doesn't have to cost the earth. Luxury for less? That's kind of our jam, whoever you're taking...

What are the best luxury family holidays?

Picking the perfect spot for your family holibobs can be a right mission when everyone wants different things. The grumpy teen who's too cool for kids' clubs (but apparently not for waterparks). The little one who only cares about chicken nuggets. The dad who talks everyone into mini golf even though it always ends in an argument (quickly resolved with ice cream). Luxury family holidays mean less time worrying and more time making memories you won't forget in a hurry.

Where can I find adults-only luxury holidays?

Our fave adult-only properties come with all the grown-up stuff, like spa centres and swim-up rooms, and none of the noisy kiddos (no offence, we love 'em, but there's only so much Baby Shark a pina colada can take). Whether you're leaving the bigger kids at home or just want a break from other people's, we've got luxury hotels that are a proper slice of paradise. Holidays to Lanzarote, a boujee holiday to Santorini or something further afield like one of our Cape Verde holidays: no screaming, no crying. Just you, your drink and the sun. Bliss.

What are the best luxury holidays for couples?

Not to be biased, but jetting off somewhere sunny is the best way to keep that spark going. Think hand-in-hand strolls down a Barbados beach, comparing tan lines by the pool and dancing your sandals off at the evening entertainment. Team that with a proper boujee hotel, swanky wine and killer sunsets, and luxury holidays for couples don't get much better. Whether you fancy sizzlin' Morocco or good ol' Greece, we've got you covered.

How do I find the best luxury holiday deals?

Boujee beach holidays aren't just for the A-listers, not anymore. We're all about the 5-star vibes without the 5-figure invoice, which is why we've always got luxury holiday deals on the go. Grab your shades and get ready to feel like you've stepped into a Hollywood movie, without all the drama.

Where can I go for a luxury holiday with a short flight?

Luxury is closer than you think. Sure, there are all those tropical places (we'll get to those next), but they're not the only fancy-pants destinations out there. We're all about having you on the beach quick time with our cheap holiday abroad and short-haul picks. Think all the classics, like Tenerife holidays, the Balearics or Greece, and you're just a few hours from your first cocktail in 5-star heaven. Or go mid-haul: far enough to feel like an escape, close enough to land in the time it takes to binge a few eps of your fave show. Whether it's Egypt or one of our holidays to Turkey, prepare for pure relaxation...

What are the best long-haul luxury holidays?

We're just gonna say it. Long-haul holidays aren't as daunting as you might think, especially as we treat our long-haul jollies with the same love and flexible payment plans as our short-haul ones. And when there's exotic sand, blazing sun and balmy water waiting at the other end, that long flight suddenly feels a lot shorter. We're talking holidays to Thailand, Mexico, the Caribbean and beyond, all with top-tier hotels to choose from.

Where are the best LGBTQ+ friendly luxury hotels?

This way to paradise! Amazing facilities, gorg pools and delish restaurants, all somewhere you can be 100% authentically YOU (just how it should be). We've got plenty of inclusive hotels that champion the LGBTQ+ community, including some pretty swish 5-star getaways. Whether it's a couples' holiday or a bangin' break with your group of friends, our stack of gay-friendly hotels are on hand to keep the good vibes flowing.

Where to go for boujee vibes

Why is Turkey so good for luxury all inclusive holidays?

Turkey holidays are top-tier for value, and their posh side is all infinity pools, gourmet dinners and suites big enough to get lost in. Off on a family jolly? You could be sipping a chilled glass of whatever-you-fancy while the kiddos get covered in mud, paint and goodness-knows-what at the kids' club, or splashing about in pools WAY fancier than the local baths. And if a couples' holiday is more your vibe, think private pools, swanky spas and restaurants so fancy you can hardly pronounce the menu. Netflix and chill, but make it Turkish.

Where are the best luxury hotels in the Canaries?

Not to toot our own horn, but we've got a pretty enviable range of swanky hotels in the Canaries, with beachfront gems in the likes of Costa Adeje, Playa Blanca, Maspalomas and Playa del Ingles. Whether you opt for good ol' Tenerife, Lanzarote, Gran Canaria or Fuerteventura, you get year-round sunshine, superb hotels, fab facilities for the kiddos and entertainment for all ages. Great value for money, too, which we're all about...

Can I get a luxury holiday in Greece without the price tag?

Greece is calling (always), and we've got your golden ticket to luxury without the yikes-inducing price tag. That's what Greece holidays are all about: sipping ouzo by the Aegean, living your best life, without breaking the bank. It's giving the life of Hercules on a Hermes budget, whether you fancy Corfu or Crete, so take your pick and kick back in style.

Is Majorca good for a luxury holiday?

Fancy? Majorca? Uh, yah. Majorca is all sunkissed sands and sangria vibes, and we've got the inside scoop on cheap luxury spots that'll have you swooning. The 5-star hotels here are packed with mega pools, swanky rooms and fun for the whole crew. Slide into those flip-flops and prepare to make some waves...

Why is Dubai the ultimate luxury holiday?

When it comes to luxury, you can't really top a Dubai holiday. Beaches nabbed straight from a postcard, 10/10 grub and all the swanky shopping you've been dreaming of (nightmare fuel for the ole' credit card). With our pick of the boujiest hotels, we'd bet our bottom dollar you'll find one with plenty of pools, gorg rooms and a spa that'll have you oohing and ahhing til the cows come home.

Last-minute luxury holidays

What could be more luxurious than not even deciding where to go till the last minute? Booking early usually gets you a better price, BUT some of the best luxury holiday deals pop up when rooms need filling at short notice, because a five-star resort would rather drop the price than have suites sitting empty. That's where it gets interesting.

The best months for last-minute luxury are May, June, September and October, when the big-name resorts across Turkey, Greece and Spain still have room. Use the search bar at the top of this page and tick "I'm flexible with dates" to scan a wider window, then sort by price and filter by 5-star. You might be surprised what pops up.

Turkey is where last-minute luxury really delivers. Five-star all inclusive resorts in Belek regularly turn up at properly competitive prices in late May or early October, with the same sunshine, the same pools and the same à la carte restaurants. Greece and the Costa del Sol run a similar pattern, with beachfront luxury hotels cutting rates to fill rooms either side of the summer holidays.

With low deposits, you can lock in a last-minute luxury deal without paying the full amount upfront, and our flexible payment plans mean you can spread the rest.

FAQs

A luxury holiday can be all sorts of things. Think swim-up rooms, relaxing spas, private beaches, infinity pools and EVEN more. Partner this with top-notch service, attention to detail and that WOW factor, and then you have your luxury holiday. With our range of five-star resorts across many destinations, both short-haul and long-haul, winter and summer holidays, you're spoilt for choice when it comes to picking your next luxury jolly.

Luxury can be found around the world. Whether you're fancying a short-haul trip to the Balearics or going a bit further afield to the Maldives, we have a beautiful selection of ideal hotels for your search for a bit of luxury and relaxation. Think spas, infinity pools, white sand beaches and oceans so crystal blue we could just sit and stare at them all day. We also have a great selection of five-star resorts in the likes of Turkey, Greece and Spain.

A lot of luxury holidays are in long-haul destinations that offer paradisical settings such as Barbados or the Dominican Republic. This means a longer flight time to get to where you want to get (but trust us, it's definitely worth it once you get there).

However, luxury can also be found closer to home. With beautiful five-star resorts across our short-haul and mid-haul destinations, you don't have to go further to get what you want. With gorgeous resorts in Greece, Turkey and more, that slice of luxury you long for may just be closer than you think.

Well, we're not paps but we kind of have a bit of the down low on where some celebs head on their holidays. We're talking about Sofia Vergara in Mykonos, Rihanna in Barbados or Gwyneth Paltrow in Majorca. Or you can head to one of our luxurious Maldives resorts and live like a celeb yourself.

Well, if you're searching for luxury then we can definitely provide it. Alongside our fantastic range of hotels and destinations, we strive to make your holiday experience EVEN better. We offer flexible payment options and low deposits, meaning you can spread the cost for your luxury jolly. We are also the home of holiday perks, meaning that slice of luxury can start earlier than you once thought. We send over 1.5 million people on their holibobs each year, meaning you can book with confidence when booking with us. Happy holiday booking!

If you want proper luxury with everything included, a few destinations absolutely smash it. Turkey is the undisputed king of luxury all inclusive value: resorts in Belek serve up marble spas, multiple à la carte restaurants, premium drinks and private beaches at prices that feel almost too good to be true. Greece does it with Mediterranean style, and the Ikos resorts across Corfu, Kos and Halkidiki are regularly named among the best all inclusive hotels in the world, with menus created by Michelin-starred chefs. The Costa del Sol in Spain brings the sun and the sophistication, with beachfront five-star all inclusive resorts a short flight from the UK & Ireland. And if you're after something further afield, the Maldives and Caribbean deliver that bucket-list luxury with overwater villas, private pools and cocktails you didn't have to think twice about ordering.

You absolutely can. Cheap luxury holidays are kind of our thing, and the trick is knowing where and when to look. Turkey offers genuinely astonishing value at the five-star level: you can get a luxury all inclusive holiday with marble spas, à la carte dining and private beaches for a fraction of what you'd pay in the Balearics or the Caribbean. The Canary Islands are brilliant for cheap luxury too, with year-round sunshine, gorgeous five-star hotels and short flights from the UK & Ireland. Timing matters as well: May, June, September and October are when you'll usually find luxury at lower prices, and midweek departures can knock a decent chunk off. We've also got flexible payment plans and low deposits, so you can lock in that five-star break now and spread the cost. Cheap luxury holidays don't mean cutting corners. They mean being clever about it.

In a word: yes. There's a reason people who book 5 star holidays tend to book them again – once you've had the experience of walking into a room where everything just works (the air con's already on, the bed is enormous, there's a balcony with a view that makes you want to cry a little), it's quite hard to go back. Five-star hotels consistently deliver on the things that actually make a holiday feel special: properly good food across multiple restaurants instead of one buffet, facilities that go beyond a pool and a gym, attentive service that remembers your name and your drink order, and that general feeling of "someone has thought about every detail here." The gap between a solid four-star and a genuine five-star is less about thread count and more about the overall experience – the spa, the dining options, the quality of the cocktails, the state of the grounds. And with our range of cheap luxury holidays and flexible payments, a 5 star holiday doesn't have to come with a five-figure price tag.

Turkey and the Canary Islands are the two standouts. Turkey's Belek coast has five-star all-inclusive resorts with kids' clubs, waterslides, multiple pools and enough space that parents can actually relax while the children are entertained.

The Canaries work year-round, with family-friendly luxury hotels in Costa Adeje (Tenerife), Maspalomas (Gran Canaria) and Playa Blanca (Lanzarote) that combine proper sunshine with short flight times from the UK & Ireland. Greece is another strong pick, especially Crete and Kos, where the Ikos resorts run dedicated kids' programmes with local cooking classes, treasure hunts and beach activities that go well beyond the usual colouring-in corner.

Plenty. Adults-only luxury hotels strip out the kids' clubs and splash pools and replace them with infinity pools, cocktail bars and the kind of silence you forgot existed.

Greece has some of the best, with boutique adults-only properties on Santorini, Mykonos and Corfu. Croatia's Istrian Riviera has seriously stylish options too, with hotels like Hotel Monte Mulini in Rovinj offering Michelin-level dining and pine-shaded pools overlooking the Adriatic.

For long-haul, the Maldives is the gold standard, with overwater villas, private dining on the beach and spa treatments that make your local salon look like a bus stop.

You can, and sometimes the deals are better than booking months ahead. Five-star resorts would rather drop the price on empty suites than leave them sitting there, so last-minute luxury availability is more common than you'd think. Turkey, Greece and the Costa del Sol are the best bets, especially in May, June, September and October when the weather is still excellent but peak demand has eased. Use the search bar at the top of this page, tick "I'm flexible with dates" and filter by 5-star to see what's available right now.

If you want luxury without the long haul, the Mediterranean has you covered. The Costa del Sol is around two and a half hours from most UK & Ireland airports and has some of the most talked-about five-star resorts in Europe. The Balearics (Majorca and Ibiza in particular) are a similar flight time with boutique hotels, private villas and beach clubs that genuinely compete with anywhere in the Caribbean. Greece is three to four hours and packed with luxury options from Santorini's clifftop suites to Corfu's beachfront all-inclusives. Turkey's Belek coast is around four hours and offers five-star all-inclusive at prices that feel like a genuine bargain compared to Western Europe. The Canary Islands are about four and a half hours with year-round sunshine, making them the best short-haul option for a winter luxury break.

The ones where the five-star bit and the beach bit are the same place. We've got loads but a couple worth mentioning here... Maxx Royal Belek Golf & Spa in Belek has its own private sandy beach. Ikos Dassia on Corfu runs its own 600m stretch of beach with loungers and beach service included. And Gran Hotel Bahia del Duque in Tenerife sits right on Playa El Duque, with tropical gardens running down to the sand.

Spain does luxury three ways. On the Costa del Sol, Ikos Andalusia is beachfront all inclusive at its finest. In Majorca, Ikos Porto Petro sits between two sandy coves, while Formentor, a Royal Hideaway Hotel is tucked into Mediterranean forest at the foot of Formentor beach. And for year-round sun, Gran Hotel Bahia del Duque in Tenerife is about as grand as the Canaries get.

As soon as you've picked your dates. The best rooms at the most popular five-star hotels (sea views, swim-ups, suites) are the first to go, and lots of hotels start loading next summer's availability in the autumn. Luxury holidays 2027 are already on sale at favourites like Ikos Porto Petro, Atrium Prestige Thalasso Spa Resort & Villas and Mardan Palace. Lock one in with a low deposit and spread the rest.
