The Best Christmas Holiday Destinations
Table of contents
What’s not to love about the holiday season? The spirit of giving, festive fun, delicious food and relaxation. At Voyage Privé, we offer hand-picked places to find refuge, relaxation and peace during the final few days of the year. Here are our top destinations for a Christmastime getaway.
Our top 5 Christmas holiday destinations
1. The Maldives, Indian Ocean
![Cocoon Maldives 5*](https://images3.bovpg.net/fw/media/1/9/0/5/4/90542.jpg)
If your idea of the perfect Christmastime getaway consists of gorgeous scenery, luxurious accommodation and sublime weather, the Maldives is your place. When you are not sunbathing on white-sand beaches or swimming with tropical fish, rejuvenate with a relaxing spa session on an overwater bungalow. Most resorts create a festive mood long before the Christmas holiday itself by allowing guests to make Christmas decorations and participate in the Christmas tree lighting ceremony. Christmas on this island is best spent at the beach, relaxing and enjoying the view with your loved ones.
2. Prague, Czech Republic
![Corinthia Hotel Prague 5*](https://images3.bovpg.net/fw/media/1/9/6/8/2/96822.jpg)
During December, Prague turns into a winter wonderland you have got to see to believe. It’s among the most picturesque Christmas holiday destinations in the world. Twinkling light blankets the capital of the Czech Republic’s medieval architecture. Plus, most of the city’s top attractions – including the Charles Bridge and Old Town Square – are free, meaning you will not spend a fortune to sightsee. Enjoy ballet and watch an opera at the National Theatre or State Opera. Christmastime is fun here.
3. New York City, USA
![Park Central Hotel New York City 4*](https://images3.bovpg.net/fw/back/uk/sale/5e145f953d7a7o.jpg)
There is truly nothing like Christmas in New York City. With Christmas lights, a light dusting of snow and some carol singing, this beautiful city turns into one of the best destinations in the world for celebrating Christmas. Check out the world’s tallest Christmas trees at the Rockefeller Centre and try ice skating on the rink beneath it. There’s a fantastic shop window display to gaze at, too.
4. Seychelles, Indian Ocean
![Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa 5* with Optional Abu Dhabi](https://images4.bovpg.net/fw/back/uk/sale/5cb442c6e58dbo.jpg)
Sometimes, the best Christmas vacations are in unexpected places - far from the bustle of big city life. Choose a calm and soothing getaway in the natural ambience of this tropical island archipelago. Visit Seychelles and explore this tranquil paradise, including stunning white sand beaches, rare giant tortoises, rainforests and mountains. Christmas in Seychelles is all about quality time with family, beach time, food and festive concerts and activities.
5. Dublin, Ireland
![Clayton Hotel Leopardstown 4*](https://images5.bovpg.net/fw/back/uk/sale/5a8a9b131f0dbo.jpg)
If your idea of Christmastime merriment includes a traditional Irish pub crawl, look no further than the Republic of Ireland's capital. There is no better way to warm up on a cold Christmas night with a few pints and black pudding, and Dublin has plenty of cosy bars. However, Dublin isn’t just about drinking. Holiday offerings include tree-lighting ceremonies, festively decked-out shops on Grafton Street and Christmas markets. You can take your children to the elves’ workshops to enjoy a fun-filled holiday here.
