TUI have just launched their exciting winter 2023 programme, and boy is it a good one! There are all kinds of new and exciting destinations, hotels and experiences for you to sink your teeth into next year. Think everything from the launch of a spectacular SplashWorld hotel in Mexico to new Asian cruises setting sail from Singapore. Take a look and get hyped for your best winter yet…
Winter In Egypt Is Better Than Ever
There are so many reasons why Egypt is one of our favourite winter holiday destinations. It’s hot all year, it has excellent value All Inclusive hotels and it’s home to one of the seven wonders of the world. It’s also a water sport hotspot and has so much interesting culture and history to soak up. You can snap up holidays to Egypt from a whole host of regional UK airports including London Gatwick, Manchester, Doncaster, Birmingham, Newcastle and Bristol. What more could you want?
We send happy holiday-makers on their travels to two fabulous resorts in Egypt: Sharm El Sheikh and Hurghada. Both resorts have a great selection of accommodation, from SplashWorld hotels perfect for families to adult-only spots with TUI BLUE For Two. Some of our top hotel picks for winter ’23 include…
Hurghada
Sharm El Sheikh
As well as these heavenly hotels, winter 2023 will see the return of the incredible Holiday Village Red Sea in Sharm El Sheikh. This slice of paradise has everything you need for the happiest of holidays, from swanky swim-up rooms to a whole host of activities the kids will love. There will be six mouth-watering restaurants to visit, a relaxing spa, West End-style evening shows, five bars and even a waterpark. Total holiday bliss!
The Brand New RIU Baobab In Senegal
RIU hotels are always extremely popular with our customers, and the beachfront RIU Baobab in Senegal is all set to be one of the best yet! This huge hotel is opening this winter, offering guests 24–hour All Inclusive service, swim-up suites, multiple pools and even a nightclub on-site that’s free to visit. The kids will be kept entertained with a Splash Water World waterpark and there’ll be adult-only areas for those who want total peace and tranquility.
When it comes to food and drink, prepare to be blown away at the RIU Baobab – you’ll be able to munch your way through a main buffet, along with Asian, Italian and Grill A La Carte restaurants. You can sip on drinks in one of five hotel bars, or opt for a special holiday treat in the hotel spa. Everything you could want on your holiday, you’ll find at this spectacular hotel!
Cruise Your Way Around Amazing Asia
Take to the seas for a once-in-a-lifetime experience on Marella Discovery 2’s brand-new Asian itineraries: Eastern Experience and Fascinating Far East. The ship itself is one of the best you’ll sail on – it’s just like a luxurious floating hotel with all the added extras you can imagine. It has two pools, seven bars and restaurants, a spa, an auditorium seating 800 people, a jogging track, a casino and even a climbing wall. And that’s just scratching the surface!
The two cruises you can embark on in winter 2023 will take you to different spots in Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia over 15 dreamy days on an adult-only ship. We’re so excited for this launch, giving guests a real taste of Asian culture and allowing them to visit some of the most famous beaches and landmarks in the world. If you’re intrigued by eastern Asia, these cruises have everything you could wish for.
Spectacular New Hotels Coming To Mexico
Mexico is famous for its outstanding hotel scene. From the swanky strips of Cancun to the sandy shores of the Riviera Maya, you’ll find hundreds of hotels that are a cut above the rest. In winter 2023, we’ll be sending sun-seekers off to a Mexican paradise at new and revamped hotels including the likes of the latest Mexican RIU, RIU Latino, the newly opened Dreams Bahia Mita and the breathtaking Hotel Xcaret, which has a new adult-only hotel just next door: the Xcaret Arte.
One of the main talking points for Mexico in winter 2023 is the latest addition to the SplashWorld portfolio, the Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun. It’s ideal for families, with luxury and fun in equal measure. The kids won’t know where to start with an impressive line-up of activities including laser tag, bowling and trampolining – and this is before we get to the on-site waterpark! It’s home to 15 slides, two lazy rivers and spray grounds for the little ones to play in.
Whilst this hotel is a wonderland for kids, it’ll blow the adults away just as much. There are 12 delicious restaurants to dine in, six bars (two of which are swim-ups!), a beach bar, a spa, a fitness centre and 24-hour All Inclusive service. This hotel simply has it all, and is open for business this winter. We’d recommend staying here for a holiday you’ll never forget!
RIU Karamboa In Cape Verde Is Newly Refurbished
One of our favourite hotels, the RIU Karamboa in Boa Vista, has been undergoing an exciting refurb. We can’t wait to see this hotel back and better than ever in time for the winter 2023 season! The Karamboa will still have its majestic exterior, giving off the look of a sultan’s palace, and a peaceful and picturesque beach setting on Praia De Salines, but there’ll be so much more to love about it.
As of this winter when it reopens, the hotel will be 24-hour All Inclusive and exclusively for adults, with luxurious suites, six restaurants, a divine spa and a feature pool with whirlpool baths. There’ll be activities all day and into the night, and even a Splash Water World waterpark for guests who are kids at heart. You can cool down in one of five outdoor pools or use the steam bath, relaxation room and gym free of charge. If you want to switch off and get away from it all, there’s nowhere better.
Try Something New With A Trip To The Gambia, Goa Or Thailand
Want to do something a little out of the ordinary and discover cultures worlds away from our own? We’d recommend trips to exotic destinations like The Gambia, Goa or Thailand for winter 2023.
If you choose a winter holiday to The Gambia, you can expect miles of golden sand beaches, sizzling African sunshine and fascinating wildlife galore. You could opt for 10 or 11 nights in paradise flying from either Manchester or London Gatwick, and some of our favourite hotels in The Gambia include…
The New SUNEO Marina Elite In Gran Canaria
One of our favourite things about the Canaries is that these idyllic islands get sunshine all year round. Winter in Gran Canaria has become even more attractive than usual for 2023 with the opening of a brand-new SUNEO hotel, the SUNEO Marina Elite. This All Inclusive gem on the south-eastern coast will have everything you need for a relaxing, sunny break.
Whether you’re seeking out a fantastic family escape or you’re hoping to have a fun trip with your friends or partner, this friendly hotel will tick plenty of boxes. It’s close to the stunning Alfi beach and has two restaurants, two pools and three bars, along with the likes of tennis courts and a gym. You’ll find it nestled between the popular towns of Puerto Rico and Arguine, meaning you’re close to wonderful eateries and nightlife if you want to try something outside of the hotel. The perfect holiday spot!
Amazing Additions To The Caribbean
The Caribbean has long been a favourite winter destination for us, and the TUI winter 2023 deals are simply unmissable. Where better to escape to during the dull winter months than a collection of colourful tropical islands in one of the most stunning seas in the world? There’s plenty going on in the Caribbean to make winter 2023 one of its best seasons yet, from new accommodation to more All Inclusive options.
RIU already has a huge presence on the captivating Caribbean island of Jamaica, and it’s about to get a brilliant new hotel in Falmouth, bringing the RIU hotel total on the island to seven. If the other hotels are anything to go by, the new RIU Palace Aquarelle will be just superb. It’s planned to have more than 700 rooms, 24-hour All Inclusive service and an exclusive on-site waterpark.
Another new hotel we’ll be adding to our website for winter 2023 is the exquisite East Winds in St Lucia. This piece of heaven takes luxury to new levels, with flowing champagne, tasty beach barbecues and exhilarating water sports in one of the most blissful surroundings you could imagine. You’ll get a true taste of the Caribbean and make memories to last a lifetime.
Stepping away from the islands and over to Costa Rica, there are two beautiful eco lodges we’ll be offering holidays to in the winter 2023 season. These gorgeous, secluded lodges are tucked away in the jungle and will give you a truly unique holiday experience. They’re called the Rio Perdido and the Rio Celeste Hideaway, and they’re as dreamy as they sound!
