Holiday is always “treat yourself” time.
Working with holiday rental marketplace HomeAway, we have found home rentals with some of the best luxury amenities around the world, from France to Mexico.
There are two villas in Spain, one with a helicopter landing pad and one with a wellness and mindfulness private trainer; a beachfront villa in Jamaica with a full staff including a chef, nanny, and butler; an estate in Croatia with a wine cellar; beach bungalows in The Bahamas with a private beach club; and a villa in Thailand with a private spa and massage therapists.
They do not come cheap with prices starting at over US$1,300 per night and going all the way past US$14,000, but if you have the means or a few friends to split the bill, these spots are worth it.
