Those looking to travel further afield can choose from a week in Barbados or St Lucia from £599pp in June, or St Kitts from £619pp in May, and Dubai, Mexico, Mauritius or the Seychelles are also on offer.
The company is offering customers a range of flexible booking options, including deposits from £75pp and the choice to delay paying the final balance until three weeks before travel.
In September, travel expert Paul Charles told Sun Online Travel that Brits should be looking at booking their summer holidays for 2021 already, to get the best deals.
He said: “Travel agencies are needing some money to tide them over, so they are offering some very good deals right now.
“I think now is the time to book because you’ll guarantee decent prices before hypothetically they rise closer to next summer.”

Closer to home, popular holiday homes and campsites are already selling out for next summer, as families shy away from foreign breaks for another year due to the pandemic.
According to the Guardian, holiday home owners such as Under the Thatch, a collection of Welsh holiday cottages, and Blackberry Wood treehouses in East Sussex, have just a few weekends available for the whole of their 2021 season.
Cornwall and Devon, two of the most popular destinations for Brits, have seen some cottages sell out for all of summer, with some bookings as far ahead as 2023.
