Welcome to The Flashpacker's web site.

We’ve just returned from a fantastic trip to Cyprus, the island blessed with Apollo’s sunny kisses all year round.

For starters, in Limassol, we stayed at the seductively stylish Londa – urban chic on the beach and the absolutely superb privately owned Four Seasons – family friendly 5 star luxury.

On to Larnaca, we dropped anchor at the budget friendly, Palm Beach Hotel & Bungalows – a beachcombers paradise. Finally in search of Aphrodite, our last call of port was at the sublimely romantic Columbia Beach resort in Pissouri, near Paphos.

There are so many things to do and see in Cyprus; old and new, and in the next few days we'll be giving you our recommendations...

Yes, that’s us – a lot of style – a little flash, but not with backpacks – we take wander wheelies to worldwide destinations to review stylish boutique and luxury hotels that are Flashpacker worthy.

Our brand is synonymous with integrity and consequently all our hotels and travel products are personally vetted.

From 5-star Luxury Hotel & Spa Resorts in far-flung places to chic, stylish boutique hotels on Paradise Islands. It doesn’t have to break the bank, whatever your budget.

What about a luxury sabbatical from your work?

What better for burnt-out bankers to spend their bonuses elephant trekking, scuba diving or just chilling out on a beautiful beach.

Be a stranger in a strange place. Plan the exotic trip that you’ve always dreamt of; voyaging not as voyeurs but real life travellers – before it’s too late.

It’s never too late for a short city break at romantic boutique and iconic five star hotels. It’s not far to go when you’re in the know, to chill out at chic beach hotels in Mediterranean hotspots.

Our good friends and colleagues will also be adding their own hotel recommendations and photos on our Trusted Friends Forum. Please drop us a line and let us know your own personal favourites.
