Welcome...
Issue 5
Welcome to the latest issue of our regular
travel magazine where we hope to entice
you with a varied selection of worldwide
holiday ideas and destinations to treat
yourself, partner, family or a group of friends
to a well-earned break.
With predictions of a colder (and no doubt
wetter) than normal UK winter you will be
happy to see that this issue dedicates many
pages to destinations that promise suitably
warm winter holiday options.
A focal point for many trips to the Indian
Ocean and beyond is Dubai, an important
global air travel hub, and the headquarters
of award-winning airline, Emirates. Dubai is a
spectacular year round destination, with
miles of pristine beaches, a sophisticated
and modern city infrastructure including a
series of man-made islands whilst the
nearby desert offers a more traditional yet
beguiling contrast. We therefore begin our
journey across the Indian Ocean with an
introduction to this jewel of the UAE before
moving onwards to Mauritius, Sri Lanka and
finally, Indonesia.
Looking westwards, we review the luxury
villa scene in Barbados, a particularly
popular Caribbean island. Also, with terrific
fares available to New York, why not
consider a stay at Manhattan’s most exciting
and new, Ian Schrager hotel, The New York
Edition.
Our special feature offers a number of
diverse suggestions on multigenerational
travel. Keeping everybody happy when an
extended family group share a holiday
requires careful consideration so we hope
that we can give you some useful ideas!
Whether you are looking for a beach
getaway, a city break, a river cruise or just
news on some of the world’s finest hotels
and resorts we are sure this issue will inspire
you, so sit back, have a read, then give us a
call to discuss your travel plans.
