What We Do

Secret Escapes is the UK's biggest members-only website, operating in 14 countries worldwide and offering luxury 4 and 5 star travel deals at low prices. Before starting Secret Escapes, we wondered why booking a holiday always felt like hard work – the price comparisons, the awful early morning flights just to get the best price, the huge range of possible hotels, both good and bad. Travel is, and should be, exciting – and booking a holiday should be a stress-free experience. That’s what we set out to achieve, and it is the philosophy that drives us on. We want to inspire people to escape, and we do so with amazing images, sharp, accessible writing, exciting destinations and unbeatable prices. We already have more than 62 million members worldwide and a social-media following the size of a small country, and you can now find us everywhere from Sweden to Italy, Poland and Norway, from Germany to Switzerland, and elsewhere too.
