Memories for a lifetime

The summers they'll tell their own children about.

Their first wave over their toes. The crab in the rock pool. Ice cream for supper on the last night. These years go by quickly, and you only get them once.

Sound familiar?

Family holidays shouldn't be this hard.

A big lump sum, every year

Paying for a whole week up front, just when school fees and Christmas land.

Prices that keep climbing

Every year the same week costs more than the year before.

School holidays book out

By the time you've saved up, the good places are full.

Hours of searching

Comparing listings at night and wondering if the photos are real.

Extras on top

Cleaning fees, deposits and surprises on top of the advertised price.

"Is it right for small children?"

Unknown places, busy roads, and no idea how far the beach really is.

There's an easier way to give your children the beach.

The easy way

One set monthly fee. Five summers sorted.

Spread the cost of five family beach holidays into one fixed monthly amount. No interest, no extra accommodation fees, and a holiday week waiting for you every year.

  • The same amount every month for 60 months
  • A Friday-to-Friday week at the beach each year
  • Life happens: carry one missed holiday into another year
