  1. Hotel Le Sirenuse, Costa Amalfitana (Italy)

John Steinbeck, who visited this idyllic Italian town in 1953, wrote ‘Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone.’ We’re not going to compete with that.


  1. Hotel Ubud Hanging Gardens, Indonesia

Indonesia is perhaps one of the most naturally breathtaking places on earth, why is why we say: to hell with walls! The Hanging Gardens creates an ethereal hotel experience and provides one of the best possible ways to experience Bali: in an infinity pool with nothing but jungle, surf, and soul in all directions.


Yes, we know that a lot of these hotels are not financially feasible for most of us, but it doesn’t cost anything to dream! Or to backpack to their property and hide in the broom closet until you get locked in overnight. Just remember, you didn’t hear it from us.
