Luxury Traveling While Black

Join Tomas and me as we talk about the bucket-list destination of the Maldives. There are over 1000 islands and 140&#43; resorts. We talk about the best ones, including Six Senses, Soneva, Joali, Waldorf Astoria, and One and Only. We share how they are different and help you figure out which is best for you.   Tomas shares his favorite restaurants, from a low-key crab shack to a treehouse to an under the sea experience surrounded by fish. And of course, we’ll talk about the many active experiences and ways to relax.   Visit <a href="https://truvaytravel.com/28">truvaytravel.com/28</a> for a video of today’s show and additional resources.

Consensio do the ski holiday at a slightly different level to everyone else –  it&#39;s the level of luxury and service, but also the fact that it&#39;s totally bespoke and tailored to whatever guests want.  Music: © Barney &amp; Izzi Hardy

Chilled-Out Luxury Ski Holidays

What makes a luxury holiday so... luxurious? Be it a city hotel or remote lodge, staying in luxury accommodation is often about bespoke service as well as exquisite amenities and fine dining. In this week’s episode of Trip Notes, NZ Herald Travel Editor Stephanie Holmes is joined by writers Juliette Sivertsen and Greg Bruce to discuss their most luxurious stays in New Zealand and abroad - and what sets those places apart. Hear about what went on behind the scenes at Greg Bruce’s stay at The Farm at Cape Kidnappers in Hawke’s Bay, as the travel writers talk about their favourite luxury holidays, and how they change their behaviour when in high-class company.

What defines luxury travel?

In all of the conversations we&#39;ve had this season, a couple of threads keep resurfacing:  how much we appreciate the ability to travel, and how to really maximize a trip. Well, we thought it was high time to devote an episode specifically to this!

Out Travel the System host  Nisreene Atassi  dives into the idea of splurging while traveling, and how that can mean different things to different people. She is joined by expert travel planner  Sarah Groen , host of the <a href="https://www.stitcher.com/show/luxury-travel-insider">Luxury Travel Insider</a> podcast, as well as  Tomiko Harvey , Vice President of the  Black Travel Alliance , and writer at <a href="https://passportsandgrub.com/">Passports and Grub</a>.

They&#39;ll take you through how a splurge - whether it&#39;s adding on a private tour, upgrading your seat on a flight, or making sure your home away from home has everything you need - can make or break the way you remember your travels. Sarah shares how to plan out the &#39;arc&#39; of a trip (hint, save the best hotels for last), and Tomiko talks about some of her favorite splurges.

So go ahead, book that second massage at your vacation hotel, line up that private tour, and borrow a page out of Sarah&#39;s book by really upgrading your rental vehicle - take this episode as the encouragement you need to say yes to your next travel splurge!
