Prestige Holidays’ annual 2013 “Destinations” brochure features new hotels in the Algarve, Turkey, Crete, Tenerife, La Palma, Mallorca, Marbella and Morocco. The operator is offering more family friendly and All-Inclusive options and, for the first time, a “star buy” guide which highlights hotels that offer particularly good value in 2013.

Also new for 2013 are QR bar codes on each resort intro page. When scanned these take customers direct to the relevant resort page on the company web site (www.prestigeholidays.co.uk) where they can read more about the destination and make an online booking.

Holidays lead in at just £357 per person for a week’s stay on BB at the Holiday Inn in the Algarve, new for the operator in 2013, including: return flights from London, the services of Prestige’s local representative and private transfers. This is one of the “star buy” properties as it offers superb value, good leisure facilities, a stunning beach location and is only a short walk from the Old Town.

Also new to the Algarve programme is the family owned Belavista da Luz located above a sandy beach in Praia da Luz. Breaks here start at £518 per person.

Nicky Shafe, Marketing Manager, Prestige Holidays, comments: “All-Inclusives are a very popular option for our family customers as they enable them to stay in a luxury property while sticking to a pre determined budget. We recognise that in this tough economic climate many customers are looking for the best value possible. For this reason, we have introduced the “star buy” hotels to support our long standing Prestige plus programme which offers added value and free hotel nights.”
