You’ve worked hard, and it’s time to reward yourself with a luxury holiday to be pampered and indulged in the manner to which you prefer to become accustomed. The possibilities for a luxury holiday are endless and these days can be enjoyed just about anywhere in the world.

 

Luxury holidays take many forms, from indulgent pampering in a tropical spa, lazy resort life in an exotic remote destination, living the high life in a sumptuous international hotel, or watching the world slip by from the balcony of your cruise liner suite. Talk to your Travel Counsellor about the best type of luxury holiday to suit your taste.

 

Luxury Resort Holidays

For a truly luxurious holiday think about some resort “essentials”; your personal plunge pool (preferably an infinity model) overlooking your private beach on an exclusive island, sipping chilled champagne served by your personal butler. Some local names to consider are Hayman, Lizard, Bedarra while overseas think about Aman, Evason, Six Senses and LHW.

 

Luxury Spa Holidays

For the ultimate in luxe, get into a spa resort, the more exotic and over the top the better. These days spas are the reason for the resort, not an added feature, and you will leave relaxed and toned, probably with a much slimmer wallet. In Australia consider Hepburn Springs, Hunter Valley or Palm Cove; while overseas the Maldives, Mauritius and Thailand are hot destinations.

 

Luxury Cruise Holidays

Increasingly popular luxury cruises are another great way to unwind and live the luxe life. Grab your chance to explore remote ports-of-call while cosseted in the incomparable luxury of your stateroom. Five star luxury at every turn, gourmet dining and world-class entertainment come bundled on your luxury cruise.

Cook Islands My second visit to the Cook Islands was with a group of other travel agents on a “famil” [familiarisation trip] to inspect different hotels and see what the islands had to offer for visitors. The first time I had visited Raratonga was on my return from USA to Australia back in 1993. It is a great stopover point for this route especially if you have had a hectic time in USA and coming back to work. Apart from more beachside resorts most hadn’t changed that much in this laid back paradise. Coming from Australia you have to go via New Zealand so it adds up to seven hours of flying plus your transit time. For this reason it’s more popular with New Zealanders and Fijians. Once there however you could calm down and begin the island pace. The main Island of Rarotonga is very mountainous with the narrow coastal strip skirting right around the island supporting the agricultural terraces, the road and the resorts and villages. There is a lookout point where we took a 4WD drive... view full story
