Short-haul holidays
Majorca caters to every type of last-minute holiday possible. Family fun? Cala Bona has you covered with cave hopping, snorkelling and beaches made for building sandcastles. Looking for luxury? Puerto Pollensa is your pick – a chic marina, plus charming cobbled streets show off the slower pace of island living.
The White Isle AKA Ibiza is the island with it all. Here, peaceful retreats meet buzzing beach nightlife. Partying on the cards? You’ll want to check into one of our Scene hotels – seconds from the strip in San Antonio.
If you’re seeking a quieter beat, make tracks for Port des Torrent, where sandy stretches, Caribbean-esque waters and luxe hotels, like our four-star TUI BLUE Aura await.

Mid-haul holidays
Searching for sands to stretch out on? Take off to Turkey for a top-notch beach scene. Over 500 of them hold Blue Flag status, so soft sand and clear waters are a given. You’ll find the best of the bunch on the west Aegean coastline near big-name resorts like Bodrum and Gumbet.
It’s not all about the beaches, though. The Bodrum Peninsula is sure to be a hit with the history buffs. Ephesus – once the second largest city of the Roman Empire – is home to the remains of The Temple of Artemis, one of The Seven Wonders of the World. Pretty impressive, right? All this is just a 15-minute drive from the five-star TUI BLUE Ephesus.
Want a late holiday deal? Greece is the word – and the place where laidback holidaying is firmly on the agenda.
Leave the fickle forecasts at home and head to Skopelos. Look up serene in the dictionary, and you’ll find this island gem – it showcases some of the Aegean’s best unspoilt scenery. Make Skopelos Town, the island’s capital, the base on your last-minute break. Here, you’ll find bijou eateries and lively jazz bars dotted around a labyrinth of narrow alleyways – bliss.

Long-haul holidays
But theme parks are just the beginning of offerings in Florida – places like Clearwater give you stretches of soft sands to lay your towel on and a buzzy nightlife. Make tracks south, and Miami comes into view. It’s a melting pot of Latin culture, architecture and al fresco dining. Check out the Art Deco districts or explore the Everglades National Park.
