Luxury Family Holidays in December

If you’re after some pre-Christmas sun before the silly season kicks in or a complete get-away-from-it-all, December has a vast array of long haul family holiday options. Take a look at what Christmas in the Caribbean has to offer! The Middle East can be an easy and welcome respite from the grey gloom of winter. The west coast beaches of Thailand are starting to enjoy their best weather months making Phuket and Koh Samui perfect for December sunshine.

However those yearning for a tropical family holiday at Christmas but still keen to enjoy some of the more traditional family customs will love Mauritius where the chances are even Father Christmas will put in an appearance if you are very, very good.

Despite being on the other side of the world and right in the middle of their summer, something very different for your luxury family holiday in December would be a trip to Australia and New Zealand celebrate Christmas as readily as we do, but instead of drinking mulled wine, lighting the fire and rugging up against the cold and rain, you’ll be playing beach cricket and celebrating around the BBQ. One of our best-selling Antipodean favourites is the traditional motorhome holiday in New Zealand, followed by a week in a beach house, where it is truly possible to live the dream. If getting away from Christmas in its entirety is your plan, head to the idyllic Maldivian archipelago where we have a coral island made in heaven for every man, woman and child. What a wonderful way to see in the new year with your family.
