Original Christmas gifts: surprise someone with a getaway to Menorca
Every year it's the same thing. The holidays are approaching, we make lists, we think of ideas... and we end up feeling like everything has already been done. Perfumes, clothes, technology, gifts that excite us for a moment but are often quickly forgotten.
So, if you're wondering how to get it right this year, the key is in one word: experiences. Original Christmas gifts are no longer stored away in a drawer; they are lived, remembered and shared.
In this article, we give you original Christmas gift ideas for all kinds of people — women, men, companies or those on a tight budget — and we finish with a suggestion that never fails: give the gift of a getaway to Menorca, a gift that combines time, well-being and unforgettable memories.
Why choose original Christmas gifts
An original gift is one that surprises, that generates excitement even before it is opened and that is remembered long after the holidays. These are the gifts that are not forgotten because they connect with emotions, create moments and convey a very clear message: I have thought of you. And, in the end, that is exactly what we are looking for at Christmas.

6 surprise Christmas gifts: when excitement is everything
Some gifts are forgotten, while others are remembered forever. Surprise Christmas gifts are those that are unexpected, that bring an immediate smile to the recipient's face and that connect with real emotions. Here are some ideas to help you get it right this holiday season.An experience to disconnect
Giving an experience is giving time and well-being. It could be a day at the spa, a relaxing massage or an activity designed simply to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace. These are gifts that are savoured calmly and become memories.An unexpected getaway
A night away, a weekend at a special destination or a surprise getaway breaks the routine and creates excitement from the very first moment. You don't have to go far: a change of scenery is part of the gift.A shared plan
Sometimes the best gift is to do something together. A special dinner, an experience for two or an activity that can be enjoyed as a couple, with friends or family multiplies the excitement and strengthens bonds.A personalised gift
A gift designed specifically for that person, tailored to their tastes, hobbies or stage of life, always surprises. It is not the object itself, but the feeling of being listened to and understood.Wellness to care for body and mind
In a fast-paced world, giving the gift of calm is a real luxury. A wellness ritual, a massage or a spa circuit is a way of saying: you deserve to stop and take care of yourself.A lasting memory
The best gifts are not always wrapped in paper. Giving the gift of a special moment, a different experience or a shared emotion makes the surprise last long beyond Christmas.
