DESTINATIONS WINTER SUN | ALL-INCLUSIVE HOLIDAYS
MONEY-SAVING TIPS
❂ Look out for early-booking discounts or promotional fares, which could mean hefty savings. If clients have missed out for this winter, suggest they book now for next year and pay in instalments.

Olympic Holidays recommends three-star Alborada Ocean Club for holidaymakers on the hunt for a bargain, with apartment-style accommodation plus hotel-standard facilities – think huge saltwater pool, kids’ mini club, playground and pool area, plus sparkling sea views. Book it: A week’s all-inclusive with Olympic Holidays costs from £450 per person based on two sharing a Triple Standard Apartment, flying from Liverpool on December 7.
Gran Castillo Tagoro, Lanzarote: For those wanting to up the luxe level a little, suggest this elegant five-star, located across the sea in Lanzarote and set right on the Playa Blanca beachfront in a scenic, secluded part of the island. “Families, friends and couples will find outstanding facilities here,” says Elena Ahmadian, marketing executive for Cyplon. “There are six pools, beautiful gardens, a fitness centre and the unmissable VitaNova Spa, complete with water circuit, hydromassage jets and a range of treatments.” There’s also a 5D cinema, an excellent kids’ club and a medieval-themed splash park, while food choices include two à la carte options, an adult-only restaurant and a string of bars. Book it: Seven nights’ all-inclusive with Cyplon costs from £775 based on two sharing a Double Superior Room, with flights from Gatwick on January 7.

❂ Highlight any supplements on speciality restaurants so clients can budget for additional costs, or opt for a comprehensive package that won’t leave them with any nasty surprises at check-out.
❂ Check which drinks are available and when – some resorts only serve drinks with meals or only after 6pm – and if clients are partial to a certain brand, be sure it’s included in the package.
❂ Travel outside the peak winter-sun season – October, November, March and April can represent better value and quieter resorts in some long-haul destinations.
