The 21-year-old singer, who won last year's X Factor, said that she wanted to treat her loved ones to a break to thank them for their support during the start of her music career.
A friend of Burke told Bang Showbiz: "Alexandra is now seeing the fruits of her labours. Her family have always supported her and this is her way of saying thanks."
It is reported that Burke will take her mother Melissa Bell, brothers and possibly her estranged father David Burke to an exotic beach destination.
