INSIDER insightinsight “Traditional stag and hen do
destinations such as Ibiza, Majorca and the Algarve continue to enjoy enormous popularity, and the Canary Islands and Turkey are increasingly popular. A villa is a fantastic option for groups who want to get together under one roof, have
communal space all to themselves and a place to call their own. Most come with their own pool or terrace as well, so the whole group can unwind and soak up the sun or enjoy a refreshing
dip. Agents looking to sell villa holidays to large groups should make customers aware of the benefits of a package holiday. Including car hire means they can explore farther afield with ease.” Alan Cross,
travel agent relationships director, Jet2holidays
