It is the age-old problem of booking a holiday to get away from the cold. Find out where you should be jetting off to now for a hot, hot, hot winter escape... Which last minute destination will you choose?
Croatia
From blissful pine-scented islands and the warm Mediterranean climate, to the plethora of historic buildings and the dramatic Dinaric Alps backing the coast, escape the stress of everyday life for tranquility on the rocks.
Brazil
Full of vibrant cities, carnivals and culture it is a great getaway destination offering you more than you can imagine. There's famous beaches, breathtaking views and breathtaking deals in the country’s endless malls and markets.
Canary Islands
You can rely on the Canary Islands for 20C plus temperatures, with eight hours of bright sunshine.
Egypt
Beautiful sandy white beaches, glorious weather and one of the 7 wonders of the world - what more could you want? Egypt is home to the Pyramids of Cairo, the great River Nile and lots of affordable accommodation. Enjoy sun, sea and sand without missing out on the culture.
Canada
Ontario has Toronto and Niagara; British Columbia has Vancouver and Whistler. Canada will heat you up, so come out and enjoy the beautiful wilderness! Synonymous with adventure, spend your time swimming in the cool lakes, hiking, golfing, biking, horse riding or camping in the mountains.
Morocco
Travel to Morocco for tranquility and 30C temperatures combined with superbly styled accommodation. Practice yoga, cool-off by the shady pool and stargaze to near silence!
California
You will be blown away by how much there is to do in California. With the glamour of its famous cities and fantastic sunshine, the state of California offers a variety like no other - miles and miles of fabulous coastline, wine country, dramatic mountain ranges, redwood forests, pristine lakes and eerie deserts are just some of the attractions on California holidays waiting to be explored.
Malaysia
Malaysia is one of south-east Asia's hottest destinations; the beauty and rich history keeps tourists flocking. There's something for all budgets – delicious street food or fine dining; funky hostels or boutique hotels.
Texas
Texas is more than you think. A world-class, year-round destination with the rich ranching and cowboy heritage that Texas is renowned for. There are many other attractions for you to enjoy including spectacular coastline, extensive national and state parks, golf and outstanding arts and cultural facilities. Think of Texas and think of the great outdoors and adventure.
Santorini
Bliss out on majestic Mediterranean views, float in a zen-like pool and revel in seaweed and volcanic mud therapies.
Sicily
Bask under unbroken sunshine on golden sand, then dip into the sea at a glorious 25C. These shores are great for people-watching, yet not too crowded.
Orlando
Orlando’s theme parks are (obviously) a big draw. But there's much more to the Sunshine State than thrill rides and costumed characters. How about a hot-air balloon ride? Parasailing? Or simply relaxing on a beach (there's so much sand)? You’ll find it all here.
Vietnam
An exotic option for the more adventurous lover of tropical temperatures and palm-fringed sandy strands. The charming country has aged well, preserving monuments and colonial architecture, while making room for modern developments alongside.
