Amanpulo, Philippines Room type: 1 bedroom villa Duration: 20th > 25th December Booked with: Ourisman Travel This is my second visit to Amanpulo, which I think says a lot in itself.  Excluding city hotels and English countryside resorts, the only properties I have ever

The Peninsula, Paris Room type: Deluxe suite Duration: 16th > 19th November Booked with: Amex FHR Out of the blue, Paris has become my second city.  In the same way that your step-son will always be a no good, creature of questionable worth, Paris

Having stayed in every different room type of The Connaught, over a period of 110 stays, I can speak with a certain authority on this hotel.  So let’s see what room works best for you. I am on a budget and

Ashford Castle, Ireland Room type: Junior Suite Duration: 13th > 15th November Booked with: Amex FHR This review has been difficult to write (haven’t they all!).  Normally I would write this either at the hotel or very soon after, but due

When I grew up I wanted so badly to be an RAF pilot, but apparently, for reasons I cannot yet work out, spending my entire childhood on a computer did not count as a qualification. Neither did continuing to spend

Turning 30 felt like a milestone. Whilst I can see remember my 18th (awful) and 21st (rather amazing) birthdays, the rest all blur together into a haze.  As a non-drinker, it did not bode well for my future that I could

Ballyfin, Ireland Room type: Junior Suite – The Lady Caroline Coote Duration: 15th > 16th November It’s rare that I’m caught off guard with a hotel.  Having been to so many luxury hotels, I know what I like, so will do

  • A few months after opening (with Dorsia clients being their first ever guests) I decided to check out Bulgari Rome. Fortunately, they have moved away from the copy/paste formula of Milan to London to Paris and created something much more…Italian. Unfortunately that means I can’t copy/paste my Paris write-up. The review will be out next Friday. @bulgarihotels
  • As upgrades go, this four-bedroom ocean villa @amanyara_resort we stayed in last week was certainly one of my better ones. I was ill and passed out for most of the stay, so will have to go back again to truly experience it. Five bedroom next time, please and thank you.
  • With our upcoming trip to Turks and Caicos, I’m reminded how bad I am at this Instagram malarkey.  I’ve not even posted of our last trip to the Caribbean, from March, so with all the enthusiasm of someone sat on the electric chair here’s @jumbybayresort
  • Little Dix might sound like a sub-genre on Pornhub but it’s actually a beautiful resort in the British Virgin Islands. You learn something new every day.
  • If you ignore the service, food and anything at all related to the humans, Necker Island is a majestic place worth visiting.
  • With three hot tubs on the Branson Estate on Moskito Island, it’s really helped turn my two year old into a well rounded individual who now expects it as a minimum.

The number of animals in this picture is the same number of game drives I went on during my stay at Singita Serengeti House: zero. It was just too relaxing to want to leave.
