Luxury travel in 2026 is about more than just beautiful villas and turquoise views, it’s about access, purpose, and experiences you simply can’t replicate anywhere else. Case in point: InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort has announced the return of its highly anticipated Manta Retreat, an immersive marine experience created in partnership with The Manta Trust. Taking place from 24–27 March 2026, the retreat coincides with Maamunagau’s peak manta season, when these ext

The Marrakech medina isn’t for the faint-hearted. It’s a full sensory symphony of colour, scent and sound, motorbikes threading past donkeys, the air heavy with cumin and woodsmoke, traders calling from souk stalls, mint tea steaming in brass pots. It’s exhilarating, intoxicating and, at times, overwhelming. Many fall in love with the chaos. Few choose to sleep within it. And yet, hidden deep within the tangle of the Marrakech Medina, behind an unmarked wooden door on a narro

Crystal has never been a brand to chase excess. Instead, its approach to luxury has always been rooted in proportion, precision and service. With the introduction of its first-ever Owner’s Suite aboard Crystal Grace, the cruise line delivers its most considered statement yet, one that brings residential-scale living to the open ocean without compromising restraint or refinement. At 1,950 square feet, with an additional 1,965-square-foot veranda, the Owner’s Suite is designed

If you’re looking for a last-minute Valentine’s escape that feels genuinely romantic, not gimmicky, not heart-shaped-chocolates-on-the-pillow predictable, my advice is simple: book somewhere that already has atmosphere built in. Somewhere with history. Soft lighting. Space to slow down. Somewhere like Taschenbergpalais. I’d travelled to Dresden in winter for the Christmas markets, expecting festive charm and cosy evenings. What I didn’t expect was to find one of the most natu

For the seasoned skier, the hotel matters just as much as the snow. Direct slope access, seamless service, a proper spa for post-piste recovery and a restaurant worth dressing up for, these are the details that turn a ski trip into a winter ritual. And as luxury travel continues to shift towards experience-led stays, 2026’s most desirable ski hotels are combining location with lifestyle, offering everything from ski-in suites to heated outdoor pools overlooking the Alps. From

As engines prepare to roar through the streets of the Principality, reservations have officially opened for the most exclusive vantage point of the Monaco Grand Prix 2026, a trackside berth in Port Hercule. Taking place from 4–7 June 2026, the 83rd edition of Formula 1’s most iconic race marks a notable shift from its traditional May slot to early summer. The change is expected to drive unprecedented demand, particularly for Port Hercule’s legendary trackside moorings, which

For the past decade, plant-based eating has been dominated by imitation...burgers engineered to “bleed”, proteins designed in labs, and ingredient lists that read more like chemistry than cuisine. But as luxury travellers become more informed about nutrition, gut health and sustainability, that era is quietly losing its appeal. Now, Emirates is making a decisive pivot. Rather than doubling down on meat substitutes, the airline is stepping away from ultra-processed vegan alter

Some luxury hotels announce themselves. Others vanish into their surroundings so completely that they feel discovered rather than designed. Hidden within Sri Lanka’s emerald southern jungle, overlooking the glassy stillness of Lake Koggala, Kahanda Kanda has long belonged to the latter... a retreat where silence is intentional, privacy is sacred, and time moves at its own unhurried pace. Now, with the addition of five new private pool villas and a spa suspended among the tree
