Five-bedroom Mansion at Six Senses Ibiza

Six Senses Ibiza: Mindful Mediterranean luxury

On Ibiza’s northern shore, Six Senses Ibiza is more than a place to stay but rather a setting for connection, wellbeing and discovery. Perched beside Cala Xarraca bay, this resort blends naturally into its landscape with locally inspired architecture and interiors. Accommodation options, meanwhile, range from sea‑view rooms to the distinctive Cave Suites, many with expansive terraces and views over the Mediterranean.

At the heart of it all is a commitment to wellness and conscious travel – redefining the classically hedonistic White Isle experience to suit modern travellers seeking meaning and restoration over revelry for its own sake. The Six Senses Spa offers personalised treatments, fitness sessions and holistic programmes, while multiple restaurants champion organic, seasonal food that often features produce from the resort’s island farm. Days here can be balanced between sunrise yoga and spa rituals, exploratory hikes along coastal paths and lingering dinners under starry skies, offering a fresh take on the Balearics' most boisterous isle.

Staying here, you’ll enjoy access to the resort’s private beach and a choice of exclusive pools, alongside butler service for an added layer of personalised comfort.

This isn’t a week for rushing. With a stroll through landscaped courtyards in the morning, a beachside massage in the afternoon and world-class dining in the evening, Dar Al Masyaf offers a balanced blend of cultural immersion and relaxed luxury that feels perfectly suited to a full week’s stay.

Ahu Bay

Ahu Bay, Sri Lanka: Intimate barefoot bliss on the Indian Ocean

Huddled into a quiet cove on Sri Lanka’s southwest coast, Ahu Bay feels like a bespoke beach house that’s been shaped by the Indian Ocean itself. With just a handful of contemporary suites and pool villas that curve around a sweep of golden shoreline, the resort marries pared-back elegance with a refreshing ease of spirit that instantly slows the pace, making it ideal for a week-long holiday that doesn't skimp on sensation, scenery and a sense of calm. 

The cuisine here has a distinctly coastal soul. Menus celebrate Sri Lanka’s rich marine bounty, with fresh catch given thoughtful, local treatment – think tamarind-glazed fish and dishes scented with garden-picked herbs – all served in a relaxed, open-sided restaurant overlooking the ocean. The infinity pool stretches towards the horizon, a calm invitation to linger between grilled lobster lunches and glasses of chilled rosé as the sun sinks low over the Indian Ocean.

Each room and suite reflects its shoreline setting, with natural textures, neutral hues and breezy indoor-outdoor spaces that bring the rhythm of the tide into your stay. Beyond the main bay, a quiet arc of palm-fringed beach beckons for barefoot strolls, while the Sanctuary Spa offers gentle treatments infused with island botanicals. Whether you explore the nearby mangrove backwaters by bicycle or simply watch the sunset paint the water from your private deck, there’s a relaxed, easygoing luxury here that feels made for a week of true restoration.

Aman Karingani, Mozambique: Safari wilderness and elegant style

For travellers seeking a week where adventure and calm go hand in hand, Aman Karingani in southern Mozambique’s Karingani Game Reserve offers a fresh take on safari luxury. Set within approximately 150,000 hectares of wilderness bordering South Africa’s Kruger National Park, this is Aman’s first safari destination in Africa, designed to deliver its signature blend of privacy, peace and immersive connection to nature.

There are just 30 standalone pavilions, each with a private pool and a panoramic viewing deck, creating a sense of seclusion that enhances the experience of the wild. Days might begin with a game drive through open plains and wooded trails guided by local experts, followed by quiet hours at the central lodge, where the pool, spa and dining spaces all look out across the unbroken landscape. Be it watching elephants pass at dusk from your terrace or gazing up at a clear night sky scattered with stars, a week at Aman Karingani pairs the thrill of safari with the refined simplicity and thoughtful design Aman is known for.

Cap Juluca, A Belmond Hotel, Anguilla

Cap Juluca, A Belmond Hotel, Anguilla: Caribbean elegance and beach days

One week in the Caribbean calls for Cap Juluca, A Belmond Hotel, Anguilla, where whitewashed Moorish architecture meets the pristine sands of Maundays Bay. Here, rooms, suites and private villas all open onto ocean views, inviting the light, sea breeze and tempo of the tide into your stay from the moment you arrive. The resort is renowned for its beachfront location and world‑class spa by Guerlain, set among lush gardens and offering bespoke treatments inspired by sea, salt and botanicals.

One of our personal travel managers, Matt, recently returned from a week‑long trip to Cap Juluca, A Belmond Hotel, Anguilla. Here's what he has to say about the experience: 

"Set on the flawless crescent of Maundays Bay, the hotel is surrounded by powder‑white sand and glass‑clear water. It’s the kind of beach that ruins all others due to its sheer beauty. One morning, we were whisked off by boat right from the shore for a day of snorkelling, cliff‑jumping and a barefoot lunch at Prickly Pear island. Run by locals,the cuisine was served family‑style and completely unforgettable. 

"Back at the resort, Cap Shack is the perfect spot for lunch, fresh seafood, rum cocktails and front‑row views of the bay. Each evening kicks off with a champagne sabrage ceremony; you can join in, mingle if you’re feeling sociable, or just enjoy the fizz before dinner. For something more restorative, the Guerlain spa is a must: South Bath rituals, warm and cold plunge pools and that serene, polished calm you only find in truly world‑class wellness spaces. We also took a Moke out at sunrise for a guided island tour, discovering hidden food spots, historic landmarks and vistas that stop you in your tracks. The best part? Even at full occupancy, it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves.

"That’s Anguilla at its finest."
