Beauty and the Beach

Beaches, in theory, are where you should look your best. All that sunshine, sea water and fresh air should give you the look of a professional beach babe whose never seen a grey sky or an Oyster Card in her life. Sadly, the reality of intense bursts of sunshine and salty sea water is actually [...]

Beyond the Beach: Alternative Mauritius

Chances are, the thought of a luminously clear, turquoise ocean fringed by sugar-soft white sands sounds pretty good right now. Am I right? Central heating inspired frizzy hair, chapped lips and sub zero temperatures combined mean that the thought of being beach-slapped by paradise’s finest is, right now, a very attractive prospect indeed. And nowhere [...]

Postcards from Eve

If we’re acquainted on Facebook or Twitter (and if we’re not – why not?!) you may have noticed that we launched a little competition recently.

The Rise and Rise of Croatia: 2012′s Party Capital!

As a bit of an Ibiza veteran, I’m loathe to award any destination the title of ‘the new Ibiza’ – but for the last few years Croatia has been relentlessly snapping at the partied-out heels of the Balearic clubbing giant – and 2012 is the year it’s set to make some serious waves! Here’s why [...]

Pick Of The Real Deals: Brilliant Bulgaria!

For reasons unbeknown to us, Bulgaria is still fairly undervalued as a summer holiday destination. We say that this is madness – have you seen those beaches?! It’s one of Europe’s hidden jewels and for this reason, i’ve picked it out as our top deal this week! With a £140 discount, four-star accommodation and a [...]

Pick of the Real Deals: A Cuban Adventure

Whilst the English weather has been gracing us with its slightly sweeter alter ego as of late, here at dealchecker, we still dream of tropical heat and rum punch by the beach. Sitting in the park eating a Pret A Manger sandwich in the sunshine is all well and good but when deals like this [...]

Pretty in Pink

It’s every little girl’s favourite colour and if we’re being honest, I’m still fairly partial to the colour. So when I found out that there’s a pink lake in Senegal, I couldn’t help but wonder what other pink things you can go and visit around the world! Lake Retba by Mickael T The inspiration for [...]

Keeping your Resolutions Up

Is it just me or is the firm resolve and good intentions of the New Year already flagging? It may only be day 10 of the new fitness regime, but it’s also Monday, it’s grey outside and I’d really rather be sleeping in front of the TV with a belly full of pizza than jumping [...]
