TUI's Small & Friendly Hotels are the perfect way to enjoy a quiet holiday, at a family run or boutique hotel in some fantastic destinations like Skiathos, Crete and Sorrento in Europe and Sri Lanka, Thailand and Barbados around the world. These smaller hotels and apartments are ideal if you hate the thought of roaming around a huge all inclusive resort without actually experiencing any of the local culture.
While you can grab a brochure from your local TUI store, you're best checking out the latest small and friendly holidays online to get the most up-to-date offers. Some of the most popular destinations include Parga, Pefkos and Kefalonia in Greece and Tuscany and Amalfi in Italy. Areas like Tenerife and Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, and Sicily and Sardinia in Italy sadly don't have hotels amongst the Small & Friendly collection.
Many small hotels in the collection are family run, so that personal touch is never far away and you've always got access to a local expert. Many hotels are often located outside of resort centres and fit in with surroundings with traditional architecture.

While many hotels in the range are small and offer limited food options, encouraging guests to head out and enjoy the local eateries and tavernas, there are a number of hotels in the range which do offer half board and all inclusive options.
With a couple of hotels in Barbados and Greece, like the Castelli Hotel in Zante, guests can enjoy not having to worry about spending extra on meals. This is a great option if you need to stick to a budget, but we would highly recommend going for a bed & breakfast option so that you can go and enjoy some tasty local dishes. It's worth bearing in mind that there are loads of holiday types on offer.
Last minute holidays at TUI's small and friendly hotels are a great way to get away at the last minute and enjoy a bit of much needed rest and relaxation. While the hotels might be small, which means the rooms can get booked quickly, there are often plenty of late deals available, whether you fancy a quiet summer getaway or bit of winter sun. Make sure to check out TUI's late deals as well as Jet2 small and friendly holidays as well.
