Private island escapes in the MaldivesFashionable overwater bungalows are undeniably iconic, but it’s worth exploring your other options in the Maldives too. Renting an entire private island could give you an experience that’s beyond comparison. Whether you stay in a hotel or hire a private team instead, the best luxury family holidays demand exclusivity. If you’re ready for golden sands and beautiful views, the Maldives make a brilliant choice. You could enjoy plenty of bespoke activities while you’re there. Why not hire a watersports instructor to learn a new skill on the waves? 4. Cultural immersion in KyotoDiscover ancient traditions juxtaposed with modern luxury in Kyoto. Staying in a traditional Ryokan could give you unlimited access to a private onsen, giving you a spa-like sanctuary amongst this bustling urban centre. Away from the streets, you could experience a tea ceremony or learn ancient writing styles from an expert calligrapher. Away from your accommodation, it’s worth realising the true wonder of ancient temples and gardens in the city. And wandering the blossom-covered streets might just lead you to Michelin restaurants in which to enjoy world-class cuisine in this beautiful city too. 5. Yacht charter in the MediterraneanFinally, if you’d like to dive even deeper this year, consider chartering a luxury yacht in the warm Mediterranean. You could create your own dream itinerary. Whether you tour the southern coast of Italy or go for the glamour of the French Riviera, you’ll be able to enjoy the very best destinations on this high-end holiday. It’s a lifestyle! From hidden coves to classy designer shops, you can visit beautiful attractions both on the sea and on land too.
