Let me guess… Your resolutions for 2014 are to drink less, eat more healthily and exercise, right? And like most years, your resolve will likely last about as long as it takes for the epic hangover from that New Year’s party to wear off.

So why not blow your good intentions in style, with a hedonistic trip abroad. Prices for travel are generally at their lowest in January and February, so an indulgent trip may be well within your budget. Try one of these seductive options.

Spend your days sailing, snorkelling, golfing, scuba diving or just soaking up that winter sun by the sea while you get sozzled

Castaway your clothes

If you resolved to give up more carnal pleasures, then Castaways Travel will put temptation in your way. They have been providing what they describe as “adult, clothing optional” travel and cruises for 27 years.

This month they are offering a couples’ cruise from Tampa, Florida, to Grand Cayman and Mexico. Clothing is optional on the sundeck, conference room area, pool and hot-tub areas and you can let it all hang out at the disco too, although you’ll need to put your kit back on for dinner. Cabins start at €380 per person, plus a minimum of €200 per person for charges, taxes and tips.

If you’re nervous about a nudist trip, the FAQ might put your mind at rest. Castaways says: “The bottom line is that some resorts are pretty laid-back and sedate most of the time, but others can have a pretty highly sexually charged atmosphere most of the time.”

Call them to discuss which holiday would suit you. Visit www.castawaystravel.com for more details.

Caribbean come on

The Platinum Coast in Barbados is all waving palm trees, lapping waves and easy access to excellent rum cocktails; in other words, it’s a great place to be during a dank, damp January if you want to forget that you foreswore alcoholic beverages only a few weeks earlier.

On www.caribbeanwarehouse.co.uk you will find a January departure for €600 per person, including flights from Manchester and accommodation in an apartment with a kitchen.

Spend your days sailing, snorkelling, golfing, scuba diving or just soaking up that winter sun by the sea while you get sozzled.

Temptress Thailand

In the south of Phuket, away from the tourist mayhem, www.vijittresort.com offers the kind of accommodation you covet in glossy magazines at a surprisingly good price.

Let your resolutions melt away in their airy villas, furnished in sleek, dark wood and breezy, white drapes. An infinity pool wraps around each deck and rose petals are scattered over the lounge chairs.

They currently have a special offer from €241 per person which includes three nights’ accommodation in a deluxe villa, a buffet breakfast and airport transfers. If you like, they’ll light candles in your room and serve your dinner there. The soundtrack will be the swish of palm fronds and the hypnotic sound of the sea.

Club crazy

Ibiza is a party island, but even away from the tourist strip you’ll still find beautiful, sun-drenched beaches and clubs thrumming until the break of dawn. In January, prices are lower, the worst of the package tourists have gone home and you can dance your New Year blues away in temperatures of around 15°C. www.lowcostholidays.com offers the Adelino Hotel in San Antonio for €340 per person, including flights from London.

Shopaholic Sicily

Yes, yes, you promised yourself not to spend another penny after New Year. But the sales are on and the shopping street in Taormina really is too good to resist.

Save on accommodation by checking into the Studio Francesca Taormina with www.gotaormina.com from €50 per night, then blow the budget in those boutique stores instead.

There’s a kitchen in the apartment, but quite honestly, you can hardly cook for yourself when in Italy, can you now?

Oh, and breakfast in the next door bar is only €3. Bargain!

The redeemer

Just in case you’re hanging onto the illusion that this year you really will stick to your resolutions, here’s a holiday that might just help. Retreatplace.com is offering a “snow and yoga” retreat in New York.

Clothing is optional on the sundeck, conference room area, pool and hot tub areas and you can let it all hang out at the disco too, although you’ll need to put your kit back on for dinner

From €650 for a single, you’ll get three days of accommodation at Catskill Maison, a restored 18th-century farmhouse in New York State. A typical day would include a wake-up yoga session, breakfast, snowshoes or skiing, lunch, a cooking class, more yoga and finally dinner and star gazing (skiing equipment and lift pass are extra).

A former guest raved: “Caitlyn [the host] brought me lunch and dinner … so I knew what to eat for breakfast and snacks. She also suggested to keep a food diary and really think more about my food choices. The food was, to my surprise, absolutely delicious. I couldn’t believe healthy food could taste so great. After the first week, I was hooked! I have never felt better in my whole life! More energy, no stomach issues, clearer skin and losing weight.”

Maybe it won’t be so hard to keep those resolutions after all.
