It’s never too early to start planning your holiday getaway! Even though it’s mid-summer, the countdown to the holiday season is already on (sorry, we don’t make the rules!). As Canadians are starting to get a jump on their all inclusive trips down south, we’re seeing more demand than ever as spaces for December and January getaways fill up fast. Thinking of planning a vacay over Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanzaa or New Year’s? We rounded up just a few of the reasons why you should celebrate the holidays in the tropics.

Holiday cheer not enough to get you warmed up to winter? Well, how about reduced deposits of $100 per person when you book by June 30, 2024, for travel between November 1, 2024, and April 30, 2025?

Cross something off your to-do list

You’ve got plenty on your plate to deal with day to day…whether it’s school, work, the kids, the pets, the in-laws – it’s no wonder you need a vacation! With the commotion that comes with the winter holiday season, wouldn’t it be that much easier to handle if you knew you already had an escape route booked, saaaay to Cuba? Spend the holidays soaking up the sun by the pristine white-sand beach at Grand Memories Santa Maria, celebrate New Year’s Eve with unlimited mojitos at the aptly named El Mojito beach bar and enjoy quality time together by the sparkling pool. Do future you a favour and lock in those winter getaways before the crowds start panic booking at the sight of snow!

Give the gift of a tropical getaway

Instead of stressing over finding the perfect present, why not give your loved ones the gift of a vacation this year. A tropical getaway full of fun in the sun is on plenty of Canadians’ wish lists – including the ones who are tricky to buy for (we’ve all got one). No matter what they’re into, there’s a paradise package for everyone! Book an all inclusive escape for your special someone, closest friends or the fam at one of Sunwing Vacations’ newest properties, Riu Palace Aquarelle in Jamaica, where you can make new memories as you zoom down slides at the Splash Water World water park or chow down on jerk chicken by the poolside Jerk Station.

Reunite with loved ones from across the country

The holidays can be stressful if you’re hosting relatives, from sorting out sleeping arrangements to cooking up a storm and worrying about all the chores. Take all that stress away and focus on enjoying your time off when you head to all inclusive resorts in the south where everything is taken care of from food to drinks and housekeeping. All your friends and family from across the country will be able to join you in paradise with convenient flights from regional gateways and exclusive perks for groups. Choose a resort that everyone will love, like Royalton Riviera Cancun An Autograph Collection All Inclusive Resort and Casino, with an action-packed holiday schedule featuring live music, festive parties and more.

Celebrate the New Year in style in an exotic locale

Instead of cramming into a busy nightclub or watching fireworks in below-zero temperatures, ring in 2025 in a beautiful tropical destination! Everyone always builds up New Years Eve as the event that will define the rest of your year, so it only makes sense to start it with all inclusive resorts down south. The adults only Royalton CHIC Punta Cana An Autograph Collection All Inclusive Resort and Casino Adults Only in the Dominican Republic hosts a fabulous New Year’s Eve party ever year complete with a special gala dinner, live entertainment, signature cocktails including a champagne bar and exclusive DJ sets that last well after the clock strikes midnight.
