A hand-picked collection of places to stay: Authentic, Small-scale, One of a kind!
How mindful it is to wake up at sunrise in the morning over a cup of coffee, with your binoculars in hand to spot the most unusual and colourful birds and watch the rainforest wake up. In the distance, you can hear how the howler monkeys move in search of food, an unmistakable sound! This jungle lodge is a true Local Hideaway with 20 Cabins tucked away in Belize’s rainforest. Great nature guides, good food and a fantastic atmosphere…. this place should not be missed on your tour of this amazing country!
A famous French shoe designer opening a hotel in Portugal… it sounds a bit strange, doesn’t it?! But Christian Louboutin has loved coming to the west coast in the Alentejo below Lisbon for years and also has his own home there. So it was a logical step to unleash his creative brain on a new small-scale luxury hotel in authentic Melides.
He created a beautifully eclectic place where his love of art and travel come together in perfect balance. Of course, with every comfort and quality.
A hidden urban oasis in pretty Paris…. mais oui! I found a nice little Hideaway for you in the 9th arrondissement, a neighbourhood with lots of young Parisians, good (and affordable) restaurants and the tastiest local foodie shops. Montmartre is around the corner as is Opéra Garnier and a couple of big department stores. It is a contemporary place where wellbeing and sustainability go hand in hand. There is also a yoga studio, wellness area, restaurant (plant-based) and bar.
This Local Hideaway represents the Douro Valley at its best and is its personification. A feast for the senses and absolutely worth a stay. A fantastic wine estate, for connoisseurs, epicureans and outdoor enthusiasts. Combine your citybreak in Porto with trip to the Douro Valley and you have the best of both worlds!
