Going on holiday is a once a year treat that you likely have spent months saving up for before you get to have a well-earnt break. With this being the only time of year that you really get to let your hair down, it is important that your holiday is tailored to your exact needs and wants. To give you a helping hand in making this dream come true, this super quick guide will walk you through some of the easiest ways you can make sure your holiday is as unique as you are and totally unforgettable in just three sections:

  1. Travel
  2. Accommodation
  3. Destination

The road less traveled

To begin with, you need to have a way of getting around your destination of choice that is reliable and gives you the freedom to go where you want to. A highly recommended option is to rent a car because this will mean that you don’t have to rely on confusing public transport or expensive taxi hire every time you want to go out and explore.

Alongside being able to go and take in the sights that matter most to you, the great thing about renting a car on your holiday is that you may just stumble upon some hidden gems.

Don’t compromise on style

When it comes to where you are going to stay, a faceless chain hotel isn’t the most exciting of settings and a shared hostel room isn’t going to give you the luxury you need to relax. An alternative you will want to consider is a boutique hotel.

What exactly is a boutique hotel?

A boutique hotel is unique because, unlike mainstream accommodation, no two are the same. They tend to be smaller and more intimate, with rooms that have loads of personality and are beautifully decorated.

So, why choose this option?

There are many reasons to choose a boutique hotel but here are some of the top ones:

  • The decor of a lot of boutique hotels includes original pieces of art, making it feel like you’re eating breakfast in an art gallery, which is perfect for those Instagram snaps.
  • Boutique hotels offer a classier experience due to there bespoke design to make you feel like a VIP.
  • Every boutique hotel is one of a kind, just like you.

Following the crowd? Not this time

Finally, when choosing where you want to visit, an initial search online or in the tourist pamphlets will only show you the tourist hotspots. Try to dig a little deep in your research to find the landmarks and natural phenomena that are going to make your trip amazing. For example, some destinations that are hidden gems include:

  • Zhangjiajie National Park, China
  • Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia
  • Marble Caves of Chile Chico, Chile
  • Rice terraces in Mu Cang Chai, Vietnam
  • Angel Falls, Venezuela
  • Cappadocia, Turkey

The destinations above are just to name a few of the stunning places you can visit instead of the overcrowded beaches and theme parks.
