Many visitors to Jersey choose to stay in a hotel, however, a self-catering alternative, is something that should be considered. Recently, this type of holiday is gaining popularity among holiday makers going on a family trip or an adventure with friends.
Self-catering is a different holiday experience, which brings about 5 great advantages:
-
Save money
Opting for self-catering accommodation will help you to keep down the overall cost of the holiday. It’s cost-effective, both in terms of accommodation cost and meals. You have the freedom to choose when you’d like to eat out and sample Jersey’s fresh culinary scene, or prepare your own meals in the comfort of your ‘holiday home’. When eating in, look for locally farmed seasonal products, seek out our famous ‘hedge-veg’ boxes for great value fresh produce and experiment with local recipes (it’ll be cheaper and way more fun).

There’s no set schedule
Are you someone who values independence? If yes, self-catering is for you! You don’t have to stick to a schedule! Set aside your worries about missing breakfast or the restaurant closing time. This is an especially important aspect to take into consideration when travelling with children as they may eat at different times to adults. Self-catering accommodation lets you organise a flexible meal plan for the whole family.

Minimize social interaction with other tourists
For families and group of friends, staying in a holiday home means they have their own private living and dining areas and maybe even private outdoor space to relax in together. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, many holidaymakers value their own private space to relax and unwind away from crowds.
