Aug 11, 2015 | Contributor: Julie Hatfield After a helicopter ride north from Vancouver, about 45 minutes of over the Discovery Islands, a dozen of us set down at the Sonora Resort on a recent trip. This is the only way it can be reached, via air or boat. No roads mar the pristine beauty of the deep red cedar, fir, pine and spruce forests here. How ironic, to be spoiled rotten in one of the most unspoiled places on earth. ... Read More |

For decades, Bali has consistently drawn holidaymakers from around the world by offering diverse experiences with a common theme of beauty, hospitality and authenticity. The island nation offers a wild night life, crowded markets and plenty of action, but not Uluwatu—which sums up why we visited. I have been to Bali more times than I can recall, but this last trip was a favorite. ... Read More |

Jun 11, 2015 | Contributor: Nicolle Monico We love hotels (obviously). But at the same time, it’s really hard for us to pass up villa living when visiting island destinations. For one, renting a private estate means more seclusion and less noisy neighbors disrupting an otherwise peaceful vacation. And, they are unique. You get to stay in a place that was stylishly-designed and unlike any other property around. ... Read More |
May 21, 2015 | Contributor: Jared Paul Stern The bid to be top dog in Las Vegas’ glam hotel scene is a fierce competition. One property however, Nobu Hotel at Caesars Palace, seems to be clearly coming out on top, thanks to some celebrity devotees. P.

Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus have also called the villa, part of Caesars' eye-popping Anthology Suites & Villas offerings, home on visits to Sin City. ... Read More |
May 15, 2015 | Contributor: Julie Hatfield Although Peter Island Resort & Spa is set on 1,800 acre of land, staying at the hotel still makes you feel like you you’re on your own private getaway.

Apr 3, 2015 | Contributor: Sean Hillen Gazing from my terrace at Villa Marie with curlicues of ivy entwined around it, the glitz and glamour of Saint-Tropez seem a world away; yet, the twinkling lights along the streets below seem close enough to touch. That’s one of the many attractions of this five-star, 45-room Italian residence, one of several Maisons & Hotels Sibuet properties in Provence. ... Read More |
Apr 1, 2015 | Contributor: Julie Hatfield “What is the first word that people utter when they step inside this villa?” we asked our host William Matthews at Aquamare in Virgin Gorda. We were standing in the Great Room of what was to be our home for the next three days, and all we could think of was “WOW.” “They don’t utter any words at all,” he replied, “but their mouths are wide open in silent awe,” (ours were open in noisy awe). ...
