A holiday trip often begins with one shared wish: more time together. The details deserve an early place in the conversation, too. A family cooking experience in Italy, a suite in New York or a coastal stay in Florida each asks for a different approach to the season. This selection brings together destinations and partners for Christmas 2026 and the welcome to 2027, with private journeys in Spain and Portugal adding another possibility. Thoughtful transport completes the picture, helping travel advisors connect the celebrations with the practical arrangements that make them enjoyable.
Lotte New York Palace
A New York Christmas with traditions of its own
New York’s holiday season is best enjoyed with a little time to wander. Lotte New York Palace places Fifth Avenue and Rockefeller Center close to the day’s plans, while its own courtyard becomes part of the celebration.
The hotel’s holiday décor returns on November 23, 2026, setting the scene for hot chocolate at the Winter Bar and evenings among Midtown’s lights. Villard will host Christmas brunch on December 25, followed by a New Year’s Day brunch on January 1, 2027. Upstairs, The Palace and The Towers offer distinct room and suite options for couples and families.
Planning the stay ahead gives travel advisors time to pair the right accommodation with dining and city outings, so the hotel’s traditions become part of the family’s own.
