i'm having holidays vs i'm having a holiday

These two phrases are both correct, but they would be used in separate contexts. 'I'm having holidays' is used when referring to a period of time off work or school, while 'I'm having a holiday' is used when talking about a specific vacation or trip. The choice between the two depends on whether you are talking about a general break or a specific holiday.
