“I always struggle a bit mentally in Jan for some reason but this one was extra blah!
“BUT sunshine memories were made! Some self healing and reflection whilst looking at the sea, was so lovely to do…
“Laughter - the best tonic of all was in abundance and some work was accomplished too. It was a Win, win! I’m already thinking of my next vitamin D fix!”
In other snaps, Martine showed off the luxury elements of her lavish break, including a photo frame made from chocolate awaiting the family in their hotel room, with a sweet picture of them inside.

One of Martine's most known roles is as tea-lady Natalie in Love Actually, who falls in love with the Prime Minister as played by Hugh Grant.
Speaking in a recent interview, Martine revealed the role helped her fall in love with acting again after suffering burnout from an intense run in theatres playing My Fair Lady's Eliza Doolittle.

Martine posed with her Chanel bag and flowers (Instagram)She said: "Thanks to Love Actually, I dug deep at a time I wasn’t very confident, but I found the confidence to feel the fear and do it anyway.
"I made a decision about what I wanted to do for a living from a place of confidence rather than a place of fear or worrying about what other people thought.
"It completely turned things around for me. It was great. It was a really, really big curveball in my life that I’m forever grateful for."
Love Actually has become one of the most well-known Christmas films, grossing $246 million worldwide on a budget of $40–45 million.
