Unique villas and luxurious suites

      From the Mediterranean coast of Turkey to private islands in the Maldives and Scottish estates — eleven addresses where space, view, and privacy become part of the architecture itself.

      Today, the best resorts increasingly focus not only on infrastructure but also on unique living formats. In this new selection, we tell you about luxurious villas where authorial concepts of relaxation, personal spa pavilions, oceanfront residences, gastronomic experiences, and personalized service create a completely different format for travel.

      Papillon Zeugma Relaxury

      A residence where the horizon becomes part of the interior

      One of three resorts of the Papillon Hotels brand in Belek, on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. The brand has been operating since 1992 and continues the concept of Adult Comfort Zone in the 2026 season — private pools, separate beach areas, and quiet corners for adult guests. The resort builds its gastronomy around the Gastro Journey format, and wellness around the spa brand Reborn SPA & Wellness with a Turkish hammam and steam rooms.

      Presidential Duplex Suite occupies the top floor and offers a panoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea. Two levels, airy interiors, and restrained design set a calm rhythm: the view, light, and space here are not decoration but part of the suite's architecture.

      Papillon Ayscha

      Your private home for important moments

      Nearby, on the same coast, is a resort of the same Papillon Hotels collection, where the family concept Papy Kids World combines with private and VIP villas for those who want to relax with company but behind closed doors.

      Villa VIP villa in a pine forest In the pine forest of Belek, the Grand Family Villa is located on two floors and is designed for five bedrooms — an option for large families and vacations with several generations at once. The master bedroom with a terrace opens directly to the private pool. A double-height gallery connects the two floors: downstairs are two living rooms and a fully equipped kitchen, upstairs are four more bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. VIP check-in, a personal WhatsApp line, and 24-hour room service take care of everything else.

      Grand Park Kodhipparu

      Grand Residence: when a villa becomes a personal residence

      At the Grand Park Kodhipparu, Maldives, a new concept called Life in Residence has been introduced, which elevates the format of family and joint vacations to a new level. The focus is on the Grand Residence — the most spacious and private villa of the resort, covering 210 sq. m, located at the end of the water pier with panoramic views of the Indian Ocean. Two bedrooms, a spacious shared living room, and a private infinity pool allow for traveling with a large family or group of friends while maintaining a sense of complete seclusion. The journey from Malé International Airport takes just 20 minutes by boat.

      Grand Residence

      The Life in Residence concept is built around the idea of shared experiences, where the main value becomes the time spent together and the freedom to relax at one's own pace. Upon booking, guests are accompanied by a personal butler, and the program includes breakfasts at The Edge restaurant, personal yoga sessions, snorkeling on the house reef accompanied by the resort's marine biologist, a complimentary massage after the flight, and other special privileges.

      Banyan Tree Phuket

      Updated Spa Pool Villas — a new look at wellness travel

      The updated Spa Pool Villas at Banyan Tree Phuket have become one of the most unusual living concepts in Phuket.

Only ten villas for adults, located on the shore of a calm lagoon in the heart of Laguna Phuket, offer spacious interiors of 550 sq. m, a private pool, and a separate spa pavilion where daily treatments take place in complete seclusion.

      Spa Pool Villa

      Every detail here becomes part of a single carefully thought-out travel scenario. A personal host accompanies guests throughout their stay, daily massages are conducted right in the villa, and breakfast is served in a private setting with views of the tropical garden. The program also includes access to the Lotus Lounge, guaranteed spots at the new Rava Beach Club, an evening cruise on the lagoon on a traditional Mekhala boat, daily mindfulness and recovery practices, including yoga, meditation, and various masterclasses.
