The Wide Awake Holidays Experience

At Wide Awake Holidays, we believe that every holiday should be as unique as the people embarking on it. Our personal travel service is designed to offer you an experience that goes beyond simply booking a trip. We call this the Wide Awake Holidays experience. From the moment you reach out to us, we dedicate ourselves to crafting a holiday that aligns perfectly with your desires and needs.

Here’s how our bespoke travel service works:

1. Your Initial Inquiry: The journey to your perfect holiday begins with you. Whether through our easy-to-use online enquiry form or a face-to-face conversation, we’ll gather the key details about your dream trip. We’ll ask questions to ensure we understand your preferences, interests, and any special requests you may have. From a beach getaway at a gay-only resort to a city escape filled with LGBT+ cultural hotspots, we are here to listen and create something exceptional for you. 
2. Personalised Consultation: Once we have the basics, we arrange a one-on-one consultation to delve deeper into your travel vision. If you’ve submitted an enquiry online, we’ll set up a call to discuss the details further. If we’re meeting in person, we’ll talk through your responses face-to-face. During this consultation, we explore everything from your ideal travel dates and destinations to your preferred accommodation style, activities, and any special experiences you wish to incorporate. The more information we gather, the better we can customise your experience. 
3. Research & Matching: With a clear understanding of your needs, we begin our research, leveraging our expertise and network of suppliers. We specialize in both exclusively gay hotels and LGBT+ friendly accommodations, ensuring that every place we suggest aligns perfectly with your comfort and desires. We consider factors like location, amenities, inclusivity, and guest reviews to narrow down your choices to a few ideal options, each curated to match your preferences and budget. 
4. Tailored Recommendations: Once we’ve identified the best options, we’ll present you with curated itineraries, including detailed accommodation options, activities, and any special touches that will make your trip unforgettable. Whether it’s a luxurious gay-only resort, an inclusive boutique hotel, or a vibrant city with a welcoming LGBT+ scene, we provide options that cater to your personal style and needs. 
5. Refining Your Choices: If you’re unsure which option best suits your vision, we’re here to refine the choices with you. We’ll work together to modify, swap, or adjust the details until you’re completely satisfied. Our goal is to ensure that you feel confident and excited about the plans we’ve made together. 
6. Finalising & Booking: Once you’ve selected your dream holiday, we take care of all the arrangements – from booking your flights to securing accommodations and special experiences. We handle the logistics, leaving you to focus on the excitement of your upcoming adventure. We’ll confirm all details with you and provide everything you need for a smooth and stress-free experience. 
7. Financial Protection & Peace of Mind: We understand the importance of peace of mind when planning your getaway. That’s why all holidays booked through Wide Awake Holidays are financially protected. As members of Protected Trust Services (PTS) and with ATOL protection, you can rest assured that your booking is secure, and if unexpected circumstances arise, your trip will be safeguarded. 
8. 24/7 Support During Your Trip: Our support doesn’t end when you board your flight. Throughout your journey, we provide continuous assistance.
