Thank you!
Club Med is offering savings of up to 20% across holiday packages in South Africa, the Dominican Republic and other top destinations
Club Med Winter 2026/7 Sale: Pay £150pp deposit
The Club Med sale, which runs until midnight on Friday (27th March), offers tiered discounts across a huge range of sunny destinations for departures between November 2026 and May 2027.
Nobody can be blamed for not thinking ahead to next winter: we’re barely out of the last one, after all.
But this is a great chance to guarantee some much-needed winter sunshine and – just as crucially – futureproof your next big holiday against the rising costs that have been predicted amid surging prices and cancelled flights.
Club Med tends to run very short-term deals on its packages; the last one we spotted was back in February, on ski holidays in the Alps.
In this new flash sale, you can save up to 15% on Superior rooms, while Deluxe rooms, Suites and Villas are slashed by 20%.
It is particularly good news for families, with kids under six staying for free and the largest discounts applied to high-capacity villas.
There’s also a brand-new South Africa resort available to book, where thrill-seekers can surf the waves or fly over sugarcane fields on a trapeze.
You can even add a safari at the Vikela Safari Lodge to spot Africa’s legendary Big Five game animals (lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants and buffalo).
Families looking for a tropical paradise may prefer Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, which features a dedicated acrobatics playground and white-sand beaches.
Parents can even treat themselves to the Tiara space, where free Champagne is served every evening from 6 pm.
Couples can escape to Marrakech La Palmeraie, tucked away in Morocco’s oldest palm grove, with tranquil courtyards and top-tier food.
If you want to dodge the noise of the city’s souks, the Riad Luxury Space offers a private oasis for an intimate getaway.
Best of all, you don’t need a huge layout to secure these rates.
A low deposit of just £150 per person locks in the current price, protecting your 2027 holiday budget against future price increases.

This cabin backpack has racked up thousands of rave reviews on Amazon and it’s perfect weekend breaks
Lossga Underseat Cabin Bag, from £10.82 (was £18.95)
Over 2,700 shoppers have given the bag a five-star rating, praising its durability and clever design – it’s now a best-seller on the Amazon website.
Usually retailing for £18.95, the black version of the bag has been slashed to just £10.82 in a limited-time deal.
(Other colourway are on sale, but are a little costlier.)
While that super-low price tag is a major draw, it’s the suitcase-style design that has shoppers talking.
Unlike standard rucksacks where you have to dig through layers to find your essentials, this bag opens 180 degrees.
This allows you to pack and organise everything at a glance, much like a traditional suitcase.
It is specifically built to maximise Ryanair’s free luggage allowance of 40x30x20cm, which is actually part of a new set of rules from the budget behemoth.

This new size recently saw a 20% increase in space, offering travellers an extra 4 litres of room.
The bag is packed with practical features that should appeal to everyone from solo explorers to busy families.
It includes an integrated charging port, allowing you to keep tablets and phones powered up during long delays.
There is also a dedicated wet pocket made of high-density waterproof material – perfect for those leaky toiletries or damp swimwear.
It’s also got a padded 14-inch laptop sleeve and a luggage strap on the back, which means you could slide it over a separate suitcase handle.
“Perfect bag for city breaks!” one delighted shopper wrote.
“Great bag, lots of room and separate compartments. Fits over the handle of your case for ease. Would definitely recommend.”
Another fan noted: “I love love love this… it opens all the way up like a suitcase would so you can fill everything in and then it has elastic straps to hold everything in place.”
A third reviewer added: “Well made, thoughtful design, perfect size. Great buy.
“[I] bought this over a year ago and [I’m] very pleased. After several trips it shows no sign of wear.
“It fits in the Ryanair test frame – as long as it’s not overloaded – and fits easily under the seat.”
