Jet, set, go. These three luxury hotels are taking around-the-world adventures to new heights with their private jet charters.

Imagine being on cloud nine – quite literally – in a fully staffed 16-seater cabin.

You’ll party on a plane 33,000ft in the air with LED lighting and free-flowing Champagne.

This is Tokyo’s most relaxing neighbourhood.

Why? Because the new Janu Toyko has just opened there. The little sister to Aman, the hotel features eight restaurants and a huge wellness centre – there's little reason to leave once you’ve made it ‘home’.

And it’s all part of the buzzy Azabudai Hills complex – a green, design-led district that’s a welcome reprieve from exploring the world’s busiest city.

1️⃣ An expedition through Cotopaxi National Park, where each view is edged with volcanoes.

2️⃣ Witness the thundering cascades of the Pailón del Diablo waterfall.

4️⃣ Test your bravery on the Devil’s Nose train route, which wings its way along some of the world’s most precipitous slopes.

5️⃣ Explore the Inca fortress of Ingapirca – one of the best-preserved archaeological complexes in Ecuador.

6️⃣Search for giant tortoises in the Galápagos archipelago – just off the coast of Ecuador.

7️⃣Take part in a traditional chocolate-making experience, which culimates in a three-course meal cooked by an expert local chef.

In the savannah, the mighty savannah...
.. The Zambian lions sleep tonight. As could you, if you head on our six-night safari. Here’s a snippet of what you’ll experience ⬇️

Start at sunrise with the tiger fishing trip of a lifetime on the Zambezi River – the best time to catch this freshwater predator.

Then, hop on a canoe safari for nose-to-trunk encounters with herds of elephants, before going on a night game drive to see big cats hunting their prey under the Zambian stars.

And that’s just the first day. Discover what’s in store on the rest of the days – and get started on booking your trip – by emailing us on [email protected].

This is what it looks like when you stay in the French Riviera's La Croisette Boulevard.

More specifically, in the Carlton Cannes, a Regent Hotel – which is also where you’ll find the region’s first private beach.

This hotel has been the place to see and be seen during the Cannes Film Festival for over eight decades, and a recent facelift makes it an even more compelling prospect.

Our tip? Stay in a suite with views of the Bay of Cannes.

If, like us, you’re big on first impressions, then you’ll love this château in the Côte d'Azur.

Because you’ll be met with a sweeping driveway and a hotel that looks like something out of a fairytale.

And that hotel is Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc – a 111-room property that feels more like a members’ club thanks to its repeat guests, five tennis courts, and pool overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.

Want to do as the locals do? Dress to the nines and head to Louroc restaurant on the water’s edge to dine on Provençal-inspired dishes.

A hotel fit for a king. And designed by one.

This is Royal Mansour Marrakech, owned by Mohammed VI of Morocco. Every detail sings with regal opulence – from the hand-tooled geometric mosaics to the layers of marble and silk in each room.

It’s also been constructed to feel like a medina within a medina, with secret doors, charming alleyways, and just 53 individual riads sprinkled amongst the expansive grounds – one of which could be yours.

‘You make all of our trips so very special.’

Getting to know you is something we take very seriously. After all, how else will we plan your perfect trip?

So, we loved hearing how much one of our recent clients loved the honeymoon and follow-up trip we planned for them.

They loved the room (‘one of the best we have stayed in’) the flowers (‘I was taken aback!’) and the service (‘this made the end of our wedding’), concluding that this was ‘another perfectly curated trip’ by us.

Living the high life in Philadelphia. Literally.

This is what you see from the 57th-floor infinity pool at Four Seasons Philadelphia. It’s perched at the very top of the Comcast Centre (Philly’s tallest building) – even if you’re not staying here, head to the 60th-floor cocktail bar to drink in the city from on high.

The hotel is in the middle of the city’s business district, meaning most of the popular museums and landmarks are just a short walk away. There’s also a great bar, The Mulberry, just over the road, where you can chat with locals over a classic Philly cheesesteak.

But our favourite part? The private night spa experience, where you get exclusive access to the candlelit 57th-floor pool.

For more information or to book your stay, email [email protected].

Rome wasn’t built in a day. Nor was this Roman oasis.

This is Hotel de Russie – a tranquil retreat in the centre of the Eternal City that’s been providing top-end Italian hospitality since the 19th century. And, following a recent visit to this dreamy hotel, we can confirm it exceeded all expectations.

Starting with the food. Michelin-starred chef Fulvio Pierangelini serves dishes to savour at the hotel’s restaurant, Le Jardin de Russie – whether you’re having breakfast on the terrace as the birds chirp into life or sipping an afternoon Aperol on the leafy inner courtyard.

…It’s easy to see why French poet Jean Cocteau called it ‘paradise on earth.’

But don’t just take his – or our – word for it. Experience it for yourself by emailing [email protected] and we’ll book you in.

Private, peaceful, paradisical. That’s how we’d describe our five-night getaway to Xinalani EcoResort & Yoga Retreat.

Most of the retreat revolves around the sublime private beach – whether you’re starting your day with beach yoga, snorkelling through the cerulean waves, or toasting the sunset whilst warmed by a beach bonfire.

Other ways to fill your days include a meditation workshop in a hillside forest retreat, soothing your muscles in the hotel spa, or hiking to a waterfall and swimming in a secluded cove. Like we said. Peaceful.

And if this sounds like your dream retreat, you know what to do: email us on [email protected] and we’ll book your stay.
