On the occasion of the 2026 back-to-school period and as part of its participation in the IFTM Top Resa trade show, the travel operator Héliades unveils its Évasions 2027 program.
This edition introduces Barbados into its long-haul portfolio with a selection of four hotels (Bougainvillea Barbados 4*, Colony Club Luxury Collection Resort 5*, Fairmont Royal Pavilion 5* and O2 Beach Club & Spa 5*).
The company is simultaneously accelerating the digitization of its sales tools and preparing a redesign of its portal. Nicolas Ivaldi, CEO of Héliades, outlines the group’s strategic directions: “With this new Évasions 2027 brochure, we aimed to give Héliades a fresh momentum: more inspiration, greater diversity, and always the desire to take our clients on new types of journeys.
2027 will be an important year for Héliades. We will continue our development with a clear ambition: to remain a recognized specialist in Spanish-speaking long-haul destinations. ”

Strengthening the Dominican Republic and Americas Offer
A historic destination for the tour operator, the Dominican Republic sees its Héliades Signature offering enhanced with the arrival of the Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana (4* Superior), an adults-only property located in Cabeza de Toro. The catalog also includes the Eurostars Grand Cayacoa (5*) facing the Samaná Cayos, along with a total of 17 stays on the island.
On the American continent, Héliades maintains its Héliades Signature product in Mexico with the Dreams Jade Resort & Spa (5*) in Puerto Morelos.
The lineup is further enriched by a private tour circuit in Colombia linking Cartagena to Santa Marta, a catamaran cruise in the Bahamas (“Pearls of Exumas”), and an inter-island combination between Nassau and Eleuthera.
