M A R R A K E C H || Morocco 

Mighty Marrakech is a perfect place to visit in February or March. With it’s temperate climate, visitors will be beyond pleased with the hot and sunny days, unlimited adventures and activities abound. The Dar Lain Villa will entice you with it’s peachy pastel perfection. Lounge by the palm covered pool or wander into the souks to meet a mystical medicine man or to shop for rugs and souvenirs. Post up at your villa where your chef will prepare intoxicating tagines. Bring the whole family, this is a sprawling 4 bedroom home.

B I N T A N || Indonesia

Bintan, Indonesia - skip the crowds in Bali & Lombok in favour of this easily accessible (yet remote) paradise. Sound too good to be true? Bintan is an island in the Riau archipelago of Indonesia. Only a short catamaran ride from Singapore 🇸🇬 but a world away from life back home. Visit for the pristine mangrove forests, the historical heritage sites and temples, secluded beaches and tropical rainforests. The Sanctuary Pool Villa is ideal for a small family or multi-generational trip with two couples and a baby [ 2 bedrooms | 2 bath ]

P U G L I A || Italy

The winter can be a great time to escape the maddening crowds of this region more typically frequented in the summer, while offering the laid-back benefits of a quiet off-season seashore town. The fish is fresher, the food better and there are no line-ups to see the historical sights, dine at the best restaurants or visit the local art museums. Check-in to Casa Vento and be sure to invite a few other families along - you’ll have 6 bedrooms after all - one with bunkbeds for all the kiddos! With 500 miles of lovely coastline and a mild Mediterranean climate, Puglia still maintains an old-world charm. 

J A C K S O N  H O L E || Wyoming 

This spectacular setting, located just 90 minutes from Yellowstone’s grandeur, is bound to ignite your inner adventurer. With alpine living at it’s best, you can hit the slopes, visit the sulphurous hot springs, hike through Yellowstone Park or simply hole up, drink hot cocoa and watch movies in the expansive great room. The Teton Village residence can accommodate a crowd - [ 4 bedrooms | 4.5 bath ] with an adorable double bunk house for the kiddos.

M A U I || Hawaii

Chase waterfalls, surf epic waves, eat Poke from food trucks parked on the side of the road, explore small hippie towns or drive the jaw-droppingly scenic road to Hana. All from your beautiful base at the Kapalua Bay Residences. From the comfort of your lanai, you can watch for humpback whales in Kapalua Bay. The gourmet cooks amongst you will enjoy preparing meals in the chef-grade kitchen. After a siesta, simply wander down to the beach which is part of a stunning reef. Grab a snorkel and mask, you won't believe the colourful creatures right beneath the sea!!
