With the summer season approaching, many people across the globe have already started making their well-deserved vacation plans. While some travelers look for more budget-friendly holiday options, others prefer a complete luxury experience to indulge in while vacationing abroad. Here are my travel expert insights and top destination recommendations for making the most of a luxury holiday experience.
My number one advice for next-level luxury travel is to look for an all-inclusive resort that will make all your wishes come true 24/7. Not to mention the private room service, chic suites, exquisite meals and endless pampering treatments combined with gorgeous scenery around. One of such high-end luxury resorts is Kudadoo, a private tropical island in the Maldives reached via a 40-minute flight from Male, and it’s all about sustainable luxury. During the stay, guests have their own butler at all times who arranges everything from fine dining to leisure activities, meditation sessions, and even private yacht excursions. The overwater residences all have their own large terrace pools, soundproof walls, walk-in showers, amazing ocean views, and countless other amenities, making it the ultimate bucket list luxury travel destination that will impress even the most demanding holidaymakers who seem to have already seen and experienced it all. Yet another great reason to visit Maldives (not that you needed one).
Another all-inclusive luxury resort worth mentioning is Ol Jogi – an exotic private family ranch in Kenya that offers the best for African safari escapes. Its cozy retro-style cottage suites and the incredible wildlife all around make it one of the top destinations for high-end travel. It also serves as a wildlife conservation sanctuary and is home to 64 of the less than 1000 black rhinos in East Africa, as well as some 500 elephants. Leisure activities there include walks with baboons, game drives, horseback riding, and a lot more. Ol Jogi’s thirteen suites are set in cottages and individually designed with bespoke furniture and access to a gym, steam room, and spa, complete with massage, manicure and pedicure services. Some travelers even say that it is a paradise on earth everyone should enjoy staying at least once in a lifetime, as not many places around the world combine unabashed but tasteful luxury with the chance to experience African wildlife in abundant privacy.
Last but not least of my luxury travel destination picks to cross off the must-visit list is South Sea Island Resort located on the tiny Mamanuca Island in Fiji. The picture-perfect island is just 30 minutes from Port Denarau Marina and is surrounded by crystal-clear waters, coral reefs and thousands of colorful tropical fish. It only takes five minutes to walk around the whole island, and that’s what makes this holiday experience even more intimate and special. No one lives on the island; the only overnight guests are the travelers who are looking for the perfect escape. There is a saltwater swimming pool and non-motorized water sports equipment available on the island. In fact, the South Sea is a great place to learn to dive and enjoy early morning kayak, snorkeling, or paddle-boarding sessions. This is also a great destination for those travelers looking for a unique experience that feels very luxurious yet doesn’t cost a fortune. The Half Day cruise to South Sea Island is perfect for those who don’t have a lot of time to spare but still want a taste of the ‘real Fiji.’ It is indeed a is a small piece of paradise on Earth I suggest visiting at least for a few magical days this year.
