Luxury Vacations!
The following hotels hold a special place in my memories, second visit for sure in foreseeable future.
Orange County Kabini -
Situated on the banks of river Kabini, this high end luxury resort features rooms with jacuzzi and private pools. The tariff includes dinner and breakfast along with the room.
The hospitality is par excellence, setting it apart from its competitors. Every penny spent here gave us a divine experience!
River and Jungle safaris are available in the adjoining national park. Must try once in lifetime. If you are lucky, you can spot the wild cat.
Park Hyatt Hyderabad
Spacious and well furbished suites with awe inspiring bathroom. The spa treatment takes you the summit of relaxation.
The room provides complimentary pastries and macaroons, which is so tasty that you wish to meet and thank the chef personally.
Beautiful lobby greets its visitors who can sample multiple cuisines in their stand alone speciality restaurants.
Ry Kinjai Shillong
Built entirely of wood on the banks of the lake umian, this resort has fabulous views of the lake and its surrounding natural beauty. The rooms are limited in number. They feature an extensive balcony and sit out. Spa is highly recommended here.
The food is just not upto the mark. sadly, nothing else is in the vicinity for a quick bite.
Orange County Hampi
Sister property of Kabini, this place is built exactly like a palace. The jacuzzi rooms are within the main building, whereas the plush Jalmahals, having its own private infinity pool are at walkable distance.
As expected, the hospitality and food is par excellence!
This one shall burn a big hole in the pocket. But nothing less than jalmahal for luxury seekers.
The Leela,Goa
Imagine waking up to the chirping of birds and beholding the sight of lotuses in your own lagoon area!
The lobby area has ancient sculptures scattered all over, the overhead fans are an art piece in themselves. You definitely get the "goa feel".
Their private beach has pristine sand and a sand bar! Savour some amazing cocktails while lounging on the sun decks!
It is advisable to opt for meal plans since it is criminally expensive to drink and eat here. Trust me!
Overseas
Atlantis Dubai
Standing magnificently on the end of the manmade palm island, Atlantis features many categories of rooms. The premium section has its own dedicated check in counters with personal concierge.
Although the rooms in this category may not be very spacious, it definitely gives you better view of the sea and facilities. Their exclusive lounge provides 24 hour food spread and happy hour on-the-house cocktails.
Atlantis stay allows free entry to their water park - one of its kind and an unavoidable attraction - and their special aquarium - the lost chambers.
Swimming with dolphins is chargeable in the separate area of the hotel.
Many restaurants and luxury brands are present to enrich your senses. The nightclub is visited by superbly dressed people!
Kurumba Maldives
Feel like a celebrity when their speedboat greets you at the airport's entrance. A quick 10 min ride deposits you on their private jetty. Here, starts your dream holiday.
You are welcomed with the most amazing coconut ice cream and then guided to your room. Again, many categories of rooms exist, recommended is the jacuzzi villa.
Dreamy place meets OH MY GOD, such a big room with pvt jacuzzi! your porch opens up on the private beach with your personal sun beds.
Only glitch here is that the dinner timings are early. By 9:30 pm everything is wrapped up.
The open air bar features foot tapping live music, hookah and comfortable seating.
Many water activities are available on chargeable basis. Clear blue alluring water makes you sigh in admiration!
This has been voted as the best island resort by TripAdvisor.
Westin Villas, Langkawi
Tucked neatly in their sprawling property, these villas are an masterpiece.
Massive bathroom is connected with your private pool area, which also features a comfortable bed sit out.
The chandeliers, bed, sofas, bar, kitchenette are simply drooling over!
Again, this will torch your wallet!

- Proximity to places of interest/city centre
- Hospitality by the staff
- Room service and amenities including room size and bedding comfort
- Food
- Lobby decor
- Price
A memorable hotel stay is wherein you loved the smiling faces of the staff, relished the buffet spread or the alacarte selection and appreciated the room service tray arrangements. The concierge helped you with perfect directions and advise, the front desk personnel helped in reducing fatigue by quickly checking you in without any hassles. The feel good factor of the lobby and hotel grounds and jumping happily on the comfortable bed after a hot shower!

As a self confessed luxury hotel junkie, I absolutely urge everyone to atleast try one high end place with superior rooms to feel every money worth spent!
It kinda makes you feel like royalty when you lounge comfortably in the sitting area of the suite and watch the phenomenonal view through the balcony. Ah... such bliss!
