WIN a two-night stay for two adults at Anantara The Marker Dublin, plus a Volvo car on loan for up to five days to explore Dublin and beyond this festive season.

There’s something uniquely magical about Dublin in the run-up to Christmas. The city is fizzing with that indescribable festive feeling. The lights on the streets glow bright, the shopfronts shimmer with seasonal displays, and the scent of hot chocolate drifts from bustling cafés, while the pull of a hot port pulls you into a cosy snug.

Even a simple stroll down Grafton Street becomes an experience in itself, thanks to the music from buskers and the thrill of finding the perfect gift before the holiday rush truly begins.

For many across the island, a December weekend in Dublin is the best way to reset before the celebrations begin. You can go for a wander without a plan, enjoy relaxed dining in great restaurants, and soak up the warm, unmistakable atmosphere that fills the city at this time of year. And when it comes to choosing a base for your stay, Anantara The Marker Dublin offers calm and contemporary style in an ideal location for any of your Christmas activities.

Located in the heart of the Docklands, it’s close enough to the city so you can explore without stress and allows you to relax and reset after a full day of festive shopping. With its sleek design, exceptional food and thoughtful touches throughout, it’s the only choice for a winter getaway.

And what could make a Dublin weekend even better? Well, exploring not just the city streets, but the nearby coastline and charming surrounding areas too. Beyond the shopfronts and pubs of Dublin city are seaside paths and scenic views that feel especially enchanting at this time of year. They become even more inviting when you have the convenience and ease of a premium car like the Volvo EX90 at your disposal.

As Volvo’s luxury all-electric seven-seater family SUV, the EX90 is engineered for complete comfort and integrated with Google services, meaning you’ll be travelling in the ultimate luxury. It has a range of over 600km, so you won’t be worried about charging up anytime soon, and, of course, there’s the style – think Scandinavian design with a contemporary edge. The car is made from nature-inspired materials and incorporates calming illumination, so you’ll feel at ease the moment you step in.

That’s why we’re excited to offer one lucky winner the chance to experience all of this with an incredible prize: a two-night stay for two adults at Anantara The Marker Dublin in a standard room, including breakfast each morning and dinner on one evening, plus a Volvo EX90 on loan for up to five days to explore Dublin and beyond.*
