Whether you’re in search of sun-drenched beaches, cityscapes, or a mix of both, we’ve rounded up three of our favourite spring holiday destinations to suit any mood. And because no adventure is complete without the right wardrobe, we’ve put together a what-to-pack guide so you can focus on what truly matters - soaking it all in.
Mauritius
If you’re looking for a slice of tropical paradise, Mauritius is the answer. This island retreat is perfect for relaxing on golden sands beneath the sway of coconut palms, a book in one hand and a cocktail in the other.
In spring, temperatures hover between 22°C and 28°C, while the island’s blue waters stay warm year-round, perfect for an impromptu dip. Dive beneath the surface and a dazzling marine world awaits, from vibrant coral reefs to ghostly shipwrecks teeming with turtles, rays, and schools of tropical fish.
Luxury here comes naturally, with five-star retreats offering barefoot elegance at its finest. We recommend checking into One&Only Le Saint Géran, Constance Prince Maurice, or Dinarobin, where world-class service meets postcard-perfect views. And when hunger calls? Indulge in the island’s finest freshly caught seafood.
What to pack:
A pair of our Staniel Swim Shorts is a must, with most styles available in matching kid’s sizes for the whole family. When it comes to diving, surfing, or swimming, pair them with one of our quick-drying rash vests for all-day sun protection. For beach days, the Tilloo Bag is your perfect companion, spacious enough to carry all your essentials with effortless style. And after a day of catching waves, slip into the ultimate post-swim comfort with our Powell & Holmes matching sets, crafted from moisture-wicking terry towelling to keep you dry and comfortable.
Dubai
If it's shopping you’re looking for, Dubai is the ultimate playground. This exhilarating city is a haven for retail lovers, offering everything from gleaming high-end malls filled with designer boutiques to the labyrinthine souqs, where the scent of exotic spices lingers in the air and stalls overflow with food, jewels, and vibrant textiles. But beyond the skyscrapers and glittering storefronts, Dubai’s soul lies in its past. Wander through Al Bastakiya, the city’s historic district, where wind-towered houses and narrow alleyways whisper stories of a bygone era.
For sunseekers, Dubai delivers year-round warmth, with spring temperatures ranging from 22°C to 35°C. When it’s time to unwind, some of the world’s most breathtaking beach resorts beckon.
Sink into luxury at Mandarin Oriental Jumeira or embrace timeless Arabian elegance at One&Only Royal Mirage, where golden sands and the turquoise waters of the Arabian Gulf set the scene for pure relaxation.
In the Dubai heat, staying cool is key, and a classic Rose Cap is an essential companion for sun-drenched days. For exploring in the sunshine, breathable footwear like our Espadrilles will keep you comfortable from morning to night. Our Arawak short-sleeved shirts, crafted from 100% breathable linen, also help to beat the heat and are perfect for dressing up or keeping it casual. For an effortlessly cool and stylish option for women, our shirt dresses, made from lightweight linen, are a go-to choice.
St Barths
If you’re dreaming of barefoot luxury, look no further than St. Barths. This Caribbean paradise is a haven of sun-soaked beaches, crystal-clear waters, and a vibrant blend of French elegance and island charm. From world-class boutiques to the best waterfront dining, every moment on the island feels like a celebration.
For the ultimate escape, immerse yourself in the refined tranquillity of Rosewood Le Guanahani, St. Barthes, where lush tropical gardens meet pristine white sands. Whether you’re indulging in a spa retreat, exploring hidden coves by boat, or savouring fresh seafood with your toes in the sand, the island is pure bliss.
Or try Nikki Beach, a secluded paradise for those seeking the best of the Caribbean.
What to pack:
Our Nassau linen jackets are an ideal option for a classy lunch, paired with one of our Abaco linen shirts. Keep the shirt plain for a classic look or add a playful touch with one of our seasonal prints. Complete the outfit with a pair of Randall Linen Trousers in matching colourways.
Wherever your spring adventures take you, whether it’s the turquoise waters of Mauritius, the golden sands of Dubai, or the timeless charm of St Barths, packing smart is key to making the most of every moment.
