Gaze over the Valley of the Kings in Bali
Have you ever cooled off in an infinity pool and gazed out over a ravine? Viceroy Bali is one of the world’s finest hotels, perched on a cliff overlooking the Valley of the Kings close to Ubud. There are just 25 astounding pool villas here and all have incredible views over the valley; plus this Bali boutique stay is renowned for its personal service offered by the family who own and run this hillside haven. Award-winning dining and the spa add to the many reasons this has been voted one of the Top 25 Luxury Hotels in Indonesia at the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards 2016.
A speck in the ocean in the Maldives
Most islands in the Maldives are tiny specks of brilliant white sand edged with a bright turquoise lagoon – but Kandolhu is so teeny, it’s actually the smallest island Kuoni offer. There are only 30 villas so the service is top-notch and the TripAdvisor reviews hail it as ‘the perfect Maldivian experience’ and ‘the Maldives at its very best’. The Ocean Pool Villa is one of our favourite room types, with floor to ceiling windows in the bathroom that you can slide right back. Lying in the bath, you’ll feel as if you’re on your own private island.
Stay in a summer house in Thailand
Mom Tri, a renowned artist and royal descendent, has opened the doors to his summer home in Phuket and welcomes Kuoni guests to stay at Mom Tri’s Villa Royale. This boutique stay is renowned for its dining and has been described as ‘the most exciting gastronomic experience I’ve ever had’ by the Hairy Bikers during filming. The award-winning Mom Tri’s Kitchen has spellbinding views out to sea to compliment the freshest of flavours.
