December Holidays 2026
No longer do you have to dread the winter months thanks to Holiday Hypermarket and our incredible December holidays. Treat yourself to some much needed relaxation and recovery and extinguish those winter blues ready for the new year.
A holiday this December could be just what you need for a top up of sunshine or a fun family Christmas that’s a bit different this year – even to use up any leftover annual leave! If your December holiday checklist looks something like this: hot, relaxing, cheap – we’ve got you covered!
Where's best for a December holiday?
Escape to a warm paradise with a December holiday and forget about the typical cold and rain in the UK. While you may enjoy snuggling up by the fire on a cold winter’s day, there’s nothing better than stepping off a plane and being greeted by that rush of heat. Swap your wooly hats, scarves, and hot chocolates for swimsuits, sun cream, and delicious cocktails on holiday this December.
If you’re looking for a hot holiday in December without flying long haul (A.K.A flying for 8 hours or more!) Cape Verde is a great pick and reachable in just six hours. The beautiful beaches and views perfectly compliment the year round warm weather making the ultimate relaxing retreat.
Similarly, Egypt is a great Decermber holiday spot for families with tons of incredible all inclusive hotels with waterparks onsite and it’s just a five hour flight.
If flying long haul isn’t a worry, then the Caribbean Islands are always great for a December holiday. It’s the dry season so rainfall is at a minimum and you can soak up the scorching sun and post-card worthy views. Cancun, in Mexico, is also a favourite for a winter sun holiday with plenty of adventure and relaxation for couples, friends and families alike.
Of course, if you love the magic of a winter Christmas – we’ve got tons of holidays to Lapland in December so you can experience the Christmas magic firsthand.
