Winter: A Warm Hug

If January is the month to book holidays, February is the month to celebrate and enjoy. This year, St Valentine's Day is on a Friday, making it ideal for a romantic getaway. Look for hotels in Lisbon for a weekend with various cultural programmes. If you're looking for a romantic getaway with a spa, don't forget to check if your hotel has an indoor pool or massages for two.
Spring: A Rebirth of Nature

With the spring, gardens bloom again, and landscapes take on a new life. April arrives with two national holidays that invite you to take a week-long holiday in Portugal with the best the Easter season has to offer. Take the opportunity to discover the west of Portugal where Alcobaça, Caldas da Rainha, Nazaré and Alenquer have many traditions, some hundreds of years old.
Labour Day this year is on a Thursday, which offers a bridge to the beginning of May. By this time of year, the sun is already beginning to be pleasant. Take advantage of the holiday for a family getaway or a getaway for two and head off to Sesimbra . As well as wonderful beaches, there's the Sesimbra Lagoon, a castle, museums, trails, viewpoints, archaeological remains and even dinosaur footprints! There's plenty of activities.

The June holidays are always the most highly anticipated, especially for those who celebrate the 13th of June and have three holidays in a fortnight. Take the opportunity to recharge your batteries and go on a longer trip. Our suggestion is Luanda , a destination that's on the rise, where you can combine the cosmopolitan with nature. June is a month of mild temperatures and less humidity. For wildlife enthusiasts it's the best time for a safari as the animals are more likely to congregate around water sources and are easier to find. A memorable experience. June is also synonymous with Santos Populares. If you prefer a shorter trip, head to the capital and enjoy the city's hottest and most fun nights. Be sure to book a hotel that's central but far from the historic centre, as the festivities take place every night throughout the month.
Summer: The Season of Adventures

Summer means sun and beach. July doesn't offer us any national holidays, but then comes August, the traditional holiday month that offers us a public holiday on a Friday. The Algarve is the most popular destination, with its golden cliffs and lively nightlife. For those who don't have a holiday this month, it's the ideal opportunity for a weekend getaway. For those going on holiday this month, now is the perfect time to start looking for hotels in the Algarve .Albufeira and Praia da Falésia are some of the busiest areas, so don't wait too long to book.
Autumn: The Magic of Colours

Autumn transforms Europe's landscapes into a spectacle of colour, with forests turning red, orange and yellow. Holidays in October and November fall on weekends but take a few days off and head to Chantilly. With gardens to lose sight of, this cosy picturesque town is a destination that captures the hearts of travellers with its timeless elegance and exquisite historical heritage. The perfect destination to recharge your batteries.
December is the last month of the year, but not the least important. With two public holidays on Mondays, it's the perfect opportunity to take a week off and travel to Berlin for the famous Christmas markets. Bebelplatz, Humboldt Forum, Charlottenburg Palace, Potsdamer Platz, Gedächtniskirche... Berlin breathes Christmas. Book your hotel in advance and enjoy the cold and hot chocolate of this emblematic European city.
The secret to the best holidays is to organise in advance to get the best opportunities and fully enjoy your days in comfort. Whatever your destination, make the most of every moment and create unforgettable memories with your loved ones.
