A Mauritius Luxury Holiday, be it a Family Holiday in Mauritius that you want, or a Honeymoon in Mauritius that you are planning, needs careful research. Recently voted as the Number one Resort and Spa of choice in Mauritius is The Sands Resort and Spa a Flic En Flac Hotel  on the west coast. As there are some amazing hotels in Mauritius including the legendary St Geran, it is worth investigating what has made The Sands so popular amongst visitors.   Firstly the situation lends itself to being a luxury romantic vacation getaway, a real hideaway situated on the west coast of  Mauritius, at the southern end of the beautiful Wolmar Beach with spectacular views across the Bay of Tamarin. The beach itself is about two hundred and fifty metres long of white ……… to read the rest go to or  

St Barts, is St Barths short for St Barthelemy in the French West Indies and a St Barts Vacation staying at the Eden Rock Hotel is just about as good as it gets, always provided you have very deep pockets. The Eden rock sits on a rock that sticks out into St Jean Bay and has 33 rooms and suites, of which 20 are on the rock and eight suites and five houses stand on the white sand beach next door.   St Barts is not an easy place to arrive at, because the twenty seater aircraft has to land on a tiny runway. As a passenger you will be too focused on the proximity of the aircraft to the ground, and even motor cars as it swoops in to land, to notice the jumble of roofs covering a large circular rock that sticks out from a white sand beach. Be comforted by two things, the first of which is that the …………. to read the rest of thisarticle go to or

A Romantic Wedding Destination could be The Four Seasons Tented Camp in the Golden Triangle on the borders of Thailand. It is perfectly legal to get married in Thailand, so it should be perfectly possible to do the deed at the Four Seasons Tented Camp, which after all is an hotel anyway. Even if the Romantic wedding destination were to be in a hotel in Bangkok, then the Golden Triangle would make such a fabulous romantic destination for a honeymoon.   Just getting to the Four Seasons Tented Camp in the Golden Triangle is a journey of which dreams are made of. Even if it isn’t to be a romantic wedding destination you will be treated like royalty from the moment you arrive at Chiang Rai Airport, and escorted to your Land Rover for the one hour fifteen minute journey on dirt roads through jungle, bags carried refreshments and cold towels as well.   Arrival at a hut on the other side of the river from the Four Seasons Tented Camp, your luggage will vanish and reappear in

All inclusive Family Vacation Packages and Luxury Holidays don’t somehow lie easily together. Most people’s vision of an all inclusive package is one of a large somewhat garish 21st Century all singing all dancing hotel containing lots of people you wouldn’t want to be with.   What we have here is somewhat different. Manda Bay is a small, very intimate, luxury resort set on an island close to Lamu on the Indian Ocean in North East Kenya. It only has sixteen spacious and secluded bandas, so even with this limited information, it is quite obviously a totally different prospect to the gin palace of nightmares.   If in your opinion all inclusive means big, and that means beautiful, then read no further because Manda Bay is the stuff that dreams are made of, but families who make this choice need to be aware that this is laid back luxury, but whilst there is plenty to do, there are no discos, night clubs, but rather peace, tranquillity and great unspoilt

The perfect honeymoon getaway package could well be the romantic Four Seasons Hotel Sultanahmet Istanbul. It has everything a romantic honeymoon getaway hotel needs apart from ‘situation, situation, situation’, and it has that in abundance. You see if you choose Istanbul for your honeymoon getaway you need also to position yourself in the right place, and Sultanahmet is certainly all of that. Here you are right in the heart of historic old Istanbul so the unmissable spots like the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, the Hippodrome plus the Grand Bazaar are only a short distance away. Topkapi Palace is also close by and the Istiklal Cadesi with its multitude of small bars and tavernas beckons.   A great honeymoon getaway hotel does need more than exquisite neighbours, and the Four Seasons Hotel Sultanahmet has this and more as well. It was created from a century old prison, and has just 65 guest rooms and suites which surround an open courtyard. That in itself isn’t

Many young couples have a tropical honeymoon vacation, and some take an African Safari Honeymoon to Tanzania or Kenya, and then urgently seek a peaceful quiet escape for the last few days, and this is where an Indian Ocean Island in the Mafia Archipelago off Tanzania called Chole comes in.   There are few better places to finally end up in than Chole Mijini Lodge which is the epitome of a romantic honeymoon getaway. This is never more true if you are very conscious of the damage that new holiday developments can do to the local environment or population, because Chole Mijini Lodge has developed with the best principles of eco tourism and benefiting local communities.   Chole Miniji Lodge is on a tiny fertile island called Chole, some twenty minutes sail from Mafia. It has been set up as a partnership with the owners Jean and Anne de Villiers and the people of Chole Village. In fact $10 per night per guest goes to resource community development projects, and this is

You can visit working tea plantation or old British Hill Station at Nuwera Eliya.on your Sri Lanka Vacation. One place you must visit is the Fort at Galle, and when you are there you need to stay in the Amangalla Resort.   Amangalla is an amazing hotel by anyones’ standards anywhere, but quite outstanding by anywhere else in Sri Lanka. The Aman group has done it again in Galle on the south coast.   Amangalla is within the ramparts of the 17th century Fort in the town of Galle, and uses the old buildings which date back in some cases over 400 years. The historic town of Galle has a combination of houses from both the British and Dutch colonial eras, and the resort gives its guests a
