Whether it's indulging in fine dining, sipping cocktails with a sunset view or enjoying family activities at the kids' club, Inclusive Collection's Dreams Resorts & Spas pack in a generous number of inclusions under its Unlimited-Luxury offering.
From 24-hour room service and a daily restocked mini-bar to unlimited premium beverages and beach waiter service, prepare to be impressed across its clutch of resorts – here's our pick of the best.
Local explorations in Madeira
Set in the traditional fishing village of Caniçal, the recently revamped Dreams Madeira Resort, Spa & Marina is an excellent bet if you want a local, culturally immersive experience that doesn't sacrifice on facilities.
Its 366 rooms offer views of the Atlantic Ocean or lush gardens, and if you upgrade your stay, choose the Preferred Club programme, which includes exclusive access to a private lounge, enhanced amenities and a concierge service.
Facilities-wise, you'll find pools (one adults-only), a marina and state-of-the art gym alongside eight restaurants. Cuisines range from Portuguese to Asian; try wine-paired local plates at Club de Fado or head to Oishii for teppanyaki tables and a scenic terrace.
When you aren't indulging in the food, get active in the surrounds; sailing, surfing, golf and more are all at hand and there's hiking aplenty in the Laurissilva Forest, alongside cultural explorations in colourful Funchal, where the Monte Palace Tropical Garden combines lush plantings with fascinating artworks.
On site, the Explorer's Club has a roster of kids' activities, while the Core Zone offers games for teens, and you can expect a range of evening entertainment too.
A family-friendly stay in Lanzarote
Set on Playa Dorada, one of Lanzarote's best-known beaches, Dreams Lanzarote Playa Dorada Resort & Spa flanks a stretch of golden sand in lively Playa Blanca. It's a five-minute walk to Marina Rubicón, where shops and restaurants frame a yacht-lined harbour, while the lunar-like landscape of Timanfaya National Park is just a short 20-minute drive away.
But you might struggle to leave – on site, there are nine pools, a water park, a 24-hour gym, spa and more. If you're looking to get active, try your hand at stand-up paddleboard yoga, volleyball, aqua spin and boxing; or if you're keen to learn some new skills, take part in a Spanish class, join an art and wine workshop or try a gin tasting.
Six restaurants include everything from Mediterranean buffet dining to an American-style grill, and there's a handful of bars plus a Preferred Club lounge and restaurant. Kids' and teens' clubs provide down-time for parents; this is an ideal spot for a great-value family holiday, where itchy-feet types won't run short on things to do.
Tenerife's upscale Costa Adeje
Located in the heart of popular beach resort Costa Adeje and a five-minute drive from award-winning water park Siam Park, Dreams Jardin Tropical Resort & Spa is perfectly positioned for exploring Tenerife's highlights.
Couples are well looked after here, with rooms and suites offering views of the Atlantic and the nearby island of La Gomera. Choose a Preferred Club room if you want extra perks, and expect colourful, African-inspired décor throughout.
There's plenty of choice on the culinary front too, with seven restaurants and four bars – catch the sky turn ruby with an evening cocktail at the Sunset Bar, then head to Pintxos for Spanish tapas or try Trattoria for home-made pasta.
Burn off some of the indulgence at the open-air gym, which faces the ocean, or rent a bike to explore Tenerife's dramatic landscapes on two wheels. Golfers can get preferential rates on local courses – head to the nearby 18-hole Abama Golf course, a 20-minute drive away, to experience one of the best on the island as the ocean flickers on the horizon, offering views of the surrounding Canary Islands from most of the club's 18 holes.
