Short stays
Costa del Sol
Struggling to get the group chat schedules to match? The Costa del Sol is ideal for short stays. Dreaming of pristine beaches, with over 160km of coastline to contend with? It’s great for all vibes round these parts, with beaches of every shape and size – so you can relax in a quiet cove or try out some water sports.
If culture is what you’re craving, head to Benalmadena and check out the old village’s whitewashed houses, laidback restaurants and charming shops. Stay in The resort for a refreshing taste of old Spain and see Bil-Bil Castle. We recommend you keep an eye on the town hall, as they often organise events like art exhibitions and concerts.

Budapest
This vibrant city has loads of attractions to jam-pack into a short-stay break, and with our excellent flight times, you can cram an adventure even into a two-night jolly. On your first day, you can explore Buda. There’s a wealth of UNESCO-stamped buildings for you to explore like the epic Fisherman’s Bastion. This monument serves as a tribute to the Fisherman’s Guild in historic Hungary, who kept the city well-fed. Its ornate stairway invites you to stroll down into the heart of the city. For spectacular scenery, you can go to Castle Hill. The picturesque funicular that carts you to the panoramic view of the Danube River, where you can see iconic landmarks like the Chain Bridge and Parliament Building.
Day two invites you to saunter through the streets of Pest on the eastern side of the Danube River. Brimming with quirky ruin pubs, underground clubs and rooftop bars. Our tip? Make sure to use the metro (the oldest of its kind in Europe) to maximise your time in this historical capital.

Prague
Czech out Prague and you’ll soon see it’s tailor-made for any traveller. Bit of a history buff? Prague’s the place to be with an abundant number of landmarks for you to explore, like St Vitus Cathedral – you'll be in awe of the Gothic spires capped with a stunning teal dome. The night owls among you will find Prague’s nightlife is unparalleled with a melting pot of buzzing bars and cool clubs. Letna Beer Garden is ideally plotted along the river, so it’s the prime place to be to watch the sun come down.
Are you looking for your next Insta-worthy post? Head to the John Lennon Wall for an edgy, unique photo of the ever-changing street art. But if edgy isn’t your style, this thriving hub has an endless network of fairytale-like cobbled streets to explore to make your followers green with envy.

Gran Canaria
Trying to make the most of your annual leave and want some sun to boot? Gran Canaria is a sublime spot where the sun shines all year round. It’s fit for any mood and full to the brim with fun-loving beachside resorts! The local beer can be as little as £1.80, making Playa Del Ingles the bargain hotspot, while its bar-filled commercial centres make it ideal day or night. If you’d prefer a more chilled experience, make a beeline for Meloneras’ laidback waterside dining experience.
If the bar scene isn’t your style, don’t worry – Gran Canaria is teeming with beautiful scenes. Check out the enchanting Maspalomas Sand Dunes for a Mars-like outing as the peaks seem to go on forever. Traverse the sands by foot or even by buggy! Avid adventurers can head to the Nublo Rural Park, a hiker’s paradise where the trails are what dreams are made of. Slap-bang in the middle of the lush national park is Roque Nublo, AKA ‘Cloud Rock’. Standing at a massive 80 metres high, it’s monolithic in appearance and it has felt incredibly spiritual to its native islanders for centuries. What’s more, we recommend hiring a car to make the most of your getaway.

Long stays
Tenerife
Immerse yourself in the island lifestyle. With vibrant beaches, action-packed adventures and activities galore, this isle is begging to be explored over a longer holiday. Hikers, point your boots towards Mount Teide National Park, as its otherworldly landscape is peppered with craters and covered with solidified lava. The many trails can cater to hikers of any level.
Sprawling across a massive four acres, Siam Park is the perfect place to take your kids of all ages, though this Thai-inspired waterpark is suitable for all thrill-seekers and chill-seekers alike. The Tower of Power is calling daredevils and one of the longest lazy rivers is a match for the laidback loungers.

Fuerteventura
We reckon there’s too much in Fuerteventura for simply a short break, as this destination is chock-full of Caribbean-esque beaches, wild water sports and relaxed seaside resorts. A low-key place to rest and recover, and known as the beach capital of the Canary Islands there’s are heaps of patches you can idle on. Wandering walker? Fuerteventura has plenty of flat routes that wind round the island!
Culture-cravers, get a load of everything from volcanic landscapes to imposing fortresses. Hit up Castillo de El Toston for a dose of history – once an important coastal defence fort, it now hosts contemporary art exhibitions. Shopaholics will be drawn to the big, bold capital Santa Cruz with its street markets on Sundays – it really is a shopper’s paradise. Looking for knick-knacks and souvenirs? The Bohemian Market has stalls aplenty, offering locally made crafts ranging from jewellery to African-inspired clothing and artefacts.

Madeira
Those of you into outdoorsy experiences, cultural twists and year-round sunshine, keep reading. Madeira is made for a longer holiday, because it has ample levadas to explore – are mini-canals that bring water down from the lush mountains. Head to Levada do Norte, one of the largest water channels on the island. This easy and pleasant trail starts below the Cabo Girāo viewing point and stretches west towards the Bao Morte area in Ribeira Brava. Feel free to stop for a break on your travels and absorb the beautiful scenery.
For more scenery, board the car to the mountaintop village and you’ll get a bird’s eye view of Funchal. One of the favourite local delicacies is black scabbardfish and, although it may look scary, it tastes surprisingly tasty. If you fancy something different, try the espada com banana, AKA deep-fried scabbardfish with grilled bananas on top. Delicious! And among Madeira’s most famous exports is wine, so we vote you should have a tasting at Blandy's Wine Lodge.
