With the global travel industry slowly getting back up and running, it’s unsurprising that the world’s A-list were among the first to hop back on their private jets and make their way to exotic shores.
Stars have been busy sharing snapshots of their post-lockdown holidays across social media over the past few weeks, from island getaways to trips closer to their homes.
So if you are looking for some inspiration for your next vacation, this is where the celebrities have been holidaying for summer 2020.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend – Mexico
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend recently took their two children, Luna, 4, and Miles, 2, on a family vacation to Mexico. They were joined by hairdresser to the stars Jen Atkin and her husband Mike Rosenthal, and shared a number of snaps from their time away on Instagram. They also shot the video for Legend's latest song Wild on the trip, in which the couple announced they are expecting their third child.
Kylie Jenner – Turks and Caicos
To celebrate her 23rd birthday on Monday, August 10, the youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan flew a number of her friends and family out to Turks and Caicos. The beauty mogul shared pictures from the trip, including sweet snaps of daughter Stormy Webster playing in the waves with her cousin, True Thompson, daughter of Khloe Kardashian.
Stormzy – Dubai
British grime star Stormzy was spotted holidaying in Dubai in early August. The Own It hitmaker is thought to have stayed at Five Palm Jumeirah, and was pictured out and about at The Dubai Mall and nightclub Nargui Five. He was also spotted on a yacht with fellow UK grime star Dave.
The Beckhams – Greece
The Beckhams flew off to Greece after travel restrictions were lifted, alongside David's mother Sandra and all four of their children. They were also joined by eldest son Brooklyn's new fiancee, Nicola Peltz, as they continued to celebrate their engagement.
Dua Lipa & Anwar Hadid – Saint Lucia
After isolating together at a rented AirBnB in London, Dua Lipa and boyfriend Anwar Hadid jetted off for an island break in St Lucia. The pair shared a number of idyllic snaps from deserted beaches, before returning to the US to spend time with Hadid’s supermodel sisters Gigi and Bella on the family’s farm in Pennsylvania.
Sofia Richie – Cabo San Lucas
Model Sofia Richie celebrated her 22nd birthday in August with friends and family on a trip to Cabo San Lucas in Mexico. Richie shared envy-inducing snaps from infinity pools and yachts, as she soaked up the sun and enjoyed her birthday celebrations.
Rita Ora – Corfu
The RIP singer spent a few weeks on the Greek island of Corfu post-lockdown, describing it as her 'happy place'. She has also holidayed in Ibiza this summer, making the most of being able to travel again.
Kendall Jenner – Utah
The supermodel joined sister Kylie Jenner and Palestinian model Fai Khadra to explore the sprawling deserts of Utah's national parks. The resulting Instagram shots of the vast and rocky landscapes offered up plenty of travel inspiration. The trio stayed at the Amangiri Resort in Canyon Point.
Joan Smalls – Portofino
The Puerto Rican supermodel shared a stunning digital postcard from the Italian fishing village of Portofino following a recent visit.
Adut Akech – Disneyland Paris
The model was among the first through the gates as Disneyland Paris reopened in July. "You can have fun and still wear your mask at the same time, so don't forget to wear them," she said in a snap shared to Instagram.
Alexa Chung – South of France
Model and television presenter Alexa Chung spent her post-lockdown summer holiday visiting the South of France.
