How's your holiday?

Hello,
I would appreciate if native speakers of English could help with the following question:

Are such sentences correct?:

How is your holiday?
How are your holidays?

Such sentences are given as examples in one of my English students' books but I have read somewhere on the Internet that such sentences are not correct. Instead we should only say:

What is your holiday like?
How are your holidays going?

The person stated that the word 'how' can only be used to ask about a person's health.

I would be greteful for your help.
Thank you!

How are your holidays?
These are fine. If the holiday has finished, ask 'How was your holiday?'

In N.America, we say 'vacation'.
