It’s nearly our favourite time of year, summer time. Summer holidays are the source of happy memories, sun drenched photos and all around good times. In preparation for this wonderful season, we’ve put together our top tips to make your summer holiday the best one yet.

1. Sunscreen 

It goes without saying, but don’t let a nasty sunburn on the first day ruin your holiday.

2. Towels

Suitcase room is a valuable commodity,so to save space why not take advantage of the beach towels available from reception at WAHI.

3. Wet wipes

Make the beach to restaurant transition with ease and pack wet wipes in your beach bag. You’ll feel fresh and ready to tackle your next activity

4. Roll your clothes

Roll your clothes instead of folding. This takes up less room in your suitcase and also reduces pesky creases! 

5. Store smart

Store your loose charging cables in a sunglasses case to keep everything together. Sunglasses cases also make great containers for jewelry and other odds and ends.

6. Waterproof your phone

Put your phone in a zip lock bag before heading down to the beach or by the pool.

7. Cover up

Pack an eye mask in your carry on to get some sleep on the plane. When you arrive, you’ll be ready to start experiencing everything your destination has to offer.

8. Make the most of your apartment

With full kitchen facilities why not place an order with Coles Online and dine on your own private balcony and take in the views! For a DIY gourmet experience, pack a mini smoothie maker and order ingredients for delicious smoothies and cocktails.

7. Stay hydrated

Dehydration can ruin your holiday so whether you’re at the beach, the shops or being active around the island, make sure you always have water with you. You can purchase a WAHI water bottle at reception.

10. Pack lighter toiletries

Decant your toiletries into smaller bottles to save space. Be creative with your containers – contact cases are perfect for concealer or moisturizer.
