Indian Ocean Escapes

The Indian Ocean boasts some of the most picturesque tropical island destinations, where turquoise waters meet palm fringed white sand beaches. The Maldives, Seychelles and Mauritius are all home to some exceptional hotels and resorts, but each has something very different to offer. Mauritius is ideal for those wishing to relax but also explore national parks and immerse themselves in local culture. The Seychelles exudes natural beauty and is an ideal island hopping destination. Last but by no means least, the Maldives offers luxurious island escapes for those looking to get away from it all.

Jessica’s St Lucia Trip Diary

Our travel specialist, Jessica, has just returned from St Lucia, a magical island renowned for its iconic volcanic peaks, The Pitons, its lush rainforests and blue-green waters teeming with sea life. During her trip, Jessica visited some of the beautiful resorts we offer but she also had a chance to take part in some of the activities offered on the island. She visited the sulphur springs with their mud baths, ‘flew’ through the rainforest canopy on a zipwire, took a speedboat trip down the coast, and took a Segway tour along a nature trail where the guides shared their knowledge of the surrounding flora and fauna.

Family fun in the Maldives

In recent years the Maldives has become increasingly popular as a family holiday destination, but what is it that attracts them? The calm, crystal clear waters are great for swimming and snorkelling and the beaches are powder white. Many resorts offer exceptional children’s clubs and entertainment programmes, allowing younger guests to experience a true Maldivian adventure. Younger travellers can enjoy exploring the marine life and can take part in arts and crafts, games and sports. Nearly all resorts also offer babysitting facilities, giving parents the chance to enjoy some downtime.

Fushifaru Maldives

Located in the stunning Lhaviyani Atoll, just a 35-minute seaplane from the Velana International Airport, Fushifaru is nestled between a Marine Protected Area and three of the Maldives‘ most iconic dive sites. This makes the chic, boutique resort perfect for guests looking to dive into the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, or, as Fushifaru puts it: “discover life above and under the water line.” Guests can enjoy a true, authentic Maldivian experience, with outstanding hospitality, unforgettable dining experiences, luxury accommodation and breathtaking scenery. Are you searching for a private, serene hideaway on a paradise island? Then look no further.
