Where Summer Lasts Forever: Escape to the Islands
Posted on: 29 January 2026 Written by: Newmark Hotels & Reserves
If you find yourself wishing that summer would linger just a little longer, an island escape is just what you need. Tropical climates are generally summery all year round, with warm temperatures and seasonal rainfall to cool you down.
Zanzibar: Island of Spice & Dreams
Zanzibar is an East African archipelago known for its white sandy beaches, clear waters and tropical climate. What better way to spend summer than by strolling through this idyllic setting and feeling the sand beneath your feet?
Chuini Zanzibar Beach Lodge by Newmark Hotels & Reserves is set in Bububu, a small fishing village with lush vegetation.
Venture out to Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site with ancient carved doors and unique architecture, or visit Forodhani Gardens, spice farms, and Prison Island.
Adventure and cultural exploration are at your fingertips, but you can retreat to the tranquillity of your hotel room whenever you wish. ‘Bububu’ is a Swahili word that mimics the sound of the breeze blowing through the palm trees, a fitting way to describe this dreamlike island. Book at this lodge set on old palace ruin for romantic weddings or private getaways.
Summer Wedding? Honeymoon on an Island Paradise
Another Indian Ocean gem, Mauritius, provides a summer escape where time seems to last forever. Say ‘I do’ against a magnificent sunset with cool, clear water lapping the shore. Your home for the next few weeks is La Maison d’Été in Post Lafayette on the north-eastern coast.
Experience something totally different from regular tourist spots, as this part of the island is more remote, boasting untouched coastlines and exotic culinary feats inspired by the island’s melting pot of cultures.
La Maison d’Été offers peaceful, luxurious accommodation with plenty of opportunities to spend time at the pool or spa, taking a slow bicycle ride along the coastal streets, or dabbling in a cultural cooking class.
