Why Book Your 2026 Holidays Early ✈️

Danielle Paradise on 03 November 2025
If you’re already dreaming of sunshine, pool days, and that first holiday cocktail of the year, now is the perfect time to start planning.

Booking early isn’t just about getting organised, it’s about securing the best possible holiday for you and your family, with more choice, better value, and far less stress.

Here’s why your future self will thank you for getting ahead of the game when it comes to your 2026 holiday plans.

1️⃣ You’ll get first pick of the best hotels It sounds obvious, but the most sought-after resorts, especially family favourites and luxury escapes book up fast. From beachfront rooms in Greece to water villas in the Maldives, the early birds always get the best rooms in the best locations.

💡 My clients who book 12–18 months ahead often secure the exact hotel, room type, and travel dates they want, especially during school holidays.

2️⃣ You can spread the cost easily Booking early gives you the freedom to pay in instalments, making those dream trips feel much more manageable. Instead of a last-minute lump sum, you can lock in your booking with a small deposit and spread payments over time.

💰 It’s the easiest way to budget smarter while still travelling in style.

3️⃣ Prices rise as demand grows Holiday prices work just like flight seats, the more they sell, the higher the rates go. By booking now, you’re locking in today’s prices before they inevitably climb closer to peak travel periods.

🕓 I’ve seen clients save hundreds just by securing their holidays early in the season.

4️⃣ Peace of mind while everyone else is panicking There’s nothing better than knowing your trip is booked, your countdown is on, and all that’s left to do is look forward to it. You’ll have your travel plans in place while everyone else is still scrolling through endless hotel options.

💆‍♀️ Less stress, more excitement... that’s how holiday planning should feel.

5️⃣ You’ll have time to make it truly personal When you plan ahead, you can add all the little extras that make your holiday unique from private excursions, dining reservations, villa upgrades, or that once-in-a-lifetime experience you’ve always wanted to try.

🌴 The earlier we start, the more I can tailor every detail around you.

Final thoughts Booking early isn’t about rushing into a decision... it’s about giving yourself more time, more choice, and more value.

Whether you’re planning a big family getaway, a romantic escape, or your dream honeymoon, getting ahead means everything falls into place perfectly.

If you’re ready to make 2026 the year of effortless travel, I’d love to help you plan something unforgettable.
