1. Beach

Amilla Fushi – Maldives luxury resort

WELCOME HOME TO YOUR ISLAND HOME.

Amilla Fushi, Baa Atoll, Maldives is an intimate Island Resort, a timeless place - not about trend but about lifestyle. “Articulating the story of authenticity, drawing on the islands’ cultural roots and the higher purpose of offering. We use this as our foundation to create a truly world class nu-luxury experience.”

Relish in the good life, with your private sanctuary amongst the lush island foliage, delicious food, superb wine, impeccable service, and most importantly, wonderful company.
You will have access to many benefits, but –above all – you will be attended to according to your preferences, so your experience is closest to what you would dream to be your ultimate island home.

2. City

La Mamounia – Palace hotel in Marrakesh

La Mamounia superbly combines the Oriental atmosphere of a beautiful Moroccan home with all the comfort of a palace.

Offering a sumptuous setting and an elegantly simple welcome, the hotel is a fine example of Arabic-Andalusian architecture, a showcase for master craftsmanship, and a living testament to an illustrious past.

Everything here is something to experience. A cocktail with friends on the cool Majorelle esplanade or a liqueur in the sumptuous interior of the Churchill bar? A dinner to share around Moroccan, French and Italian cuisine, on the terrace or indoors in a warm and welcoming setting? Or maybe simply a stroll in the gardens followed by tea at Le Menzeh. If you feel like being pampered, opt for a Spa Pass and enjoy a Spa treatment and lunch by the pool.

You simply must experience a stay at La Mamounia in Marrakesh.
 

3. Eco-Friendly

Lapa Rios Lodge - Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica

Lapa Rios Lodge protects 1,000 acres of Central America’s last remaining tropical lowland rainforest. 

In this immersive destination, the real luxury is in living and breathing the jungle. Every inch is waiting to be discovered. At Lapa Rios Lodge you’ll encounter iconic frogs and macaws; endangered monkeys and over 300 bird species. It’s a pristine environment where nature thrives in its rawest form.

The 17-bungalow lodge preserves the rainforest and assists in the development of the local community. Since its opening in 1993, Lapa Rios has won numerous awards and has been featured in the press worldwide.

In this incredible environment, guests can look forward to once-in-a-lifetime rainforest adventures, wildlife encounters and ocean activities. While some come with a bold spirit for exploring and others in search of nature’s tranquillity, both will find myriad opportunities to connect with this enigmatic ecosystem.

4. Beach

Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Costa Palmas, Mexico

Welcome to the first Four Seasons marina resort, a showpiece of contemporary design on Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula. 

Nestled on 3.2 kilometres (2 miles) of untouched beachfront on the Sea of Cortez, Four Seasons Resort Los Cabos at Costa Palmas™ fills your days with swimming, snorkelling, sport fishing, golf and desert adventures.

The resort offers 141 rooms with views overlooking the stunning Sea of Cortés. Four Seasons Residences are contemporary homes where generous interior spaces blend seamlessly into shaded outdoor living with built-in daybeds, fireplaces, outdoor showers and inventive furnishings.

The Sports Complex offers a range of challenges, games, and activities. Treatments at the Spa are rooted in the healing energy of the desert, mountain and ocean.
