San Giorgio Hotel \ Mykonos \ Greece

This stylish boutique hotel sits gracefully above the dramatic rocky shore of the Aegean Sea, traditional Cycladic clean lines of the white-washed buildings encompassing a turquoise pool surrounded by palm trees, enticing hammocks and sun loungers. Every corner of this laid-back, boho chic hotel has been minimally, yet thoughtfully decorated with raw wood furniture, cotton matelassé quilts, and other carefully chosen accessories, creating the feel of a comfortable retreat that you'll never want to leave. Lounge in a hammock on your private veranda, swim in the azure ocean out front, relax by the private salt-water pool, or explore one of the many fantastic beaches.

Oceano Patagonia \ Argentina

Just steps away from the pristine beaches, the 11 contemporary, rustic-chic suites are strategically placed so that each terrace becomes a front row seat to the awe-inspiring migration of pods of southern right whales for 6 months of the year. When the whales aren’t breaching and raising their young in the bay, Ocean Patagonia's views transition to family beach time and water sports adventure. The Peninsula Valdés reserve is also home to other world-famous marine life including orcas, southern elephant seals, southern sea lions, dolphins and magellanic penguins. Like a home away from home, the suites offer a fully-equipped kitchenette and fresh baked bread every morning to enjoy on your deck with your coffee, if you can pull yourself away from their top-of-the-line beds with premium linens.

Ursulino Valletta \ Malta

Set on a quiet, cobble-stoned street facing the monastery of St Ursula, Ursulino sits gracefully among Valletta’s beautiful Baroque buildings. Formerly a 20th century family townhouse, it began a new lease of life as one of Valletta’s loveliest boutique hotels in 2015 and has retained its original art nouveau charm. An eclectic art collection focusing on Valletta’s city-scapes in all styles and colors decorates the walls of the communal areas, while the seven contemporary rooms feature pops of bright colors and Maltese-style tiled floors; sleek bathrooms are equipped with Molton Brown amenities.
Among this boutique bolthole’s special features is its rooftop terrace with 360 degree views of Valletta’s skyline, including Fort St Elmo and the Grand Harbor. On balmy, sunny days - and there are many in Malta - you can enjoy a continental breakfast up here (we loved the Sicilian sweets).

Thirtyseven Gozo

Two decades ago, fashion industry professionals Patti and Giuseppe bought an abandoned 400-year-old farmhouse in the sleepy town of Munxar in Gozo. Today, the property has been transformed into a luxurious rural retreat filled with beautiful objects from their travels around the world. Their spectacular taste shines through in carefully selected furniture within the uniquely decorated rooms and suites. There are 10 in total, ranging in style from contemporary pop art in the Marilyn Monroe-inspired loft to oriental glamour in the Shanghai Junior Suite. The authentic limestone building is divided in two parts – the original house and a new, more modern wing – and across the boutique bolthole are two pools and pretty plant-filled courtyards looking out onto Gozo’s countryside. Combining down-to-earth rustic charm with bespoke luxury, it’s no wonder A-list celebrities such as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie chose to stay here when filming in Gozo.

Ryad Dyor \ Marrakech \ Morocco

This boutique hotel is the perfect mix of modern, traditional and luxury. Located in a quiet neighborhood inside the famous Marrakech medina, the beautifully decorated rooms and suites feature luxury amenities for overnight stays, long relaxing getaways, and family breaks. Converted from a pair of riads, it's apparent that the Dutch owner is well-schooled in interior design and fashion, filling the spaces with an eclectic collection of furnishings, artworks and antiques from all over the world. With two shady courtyards adorned with palms and orange trees, a splash pool, and a large open-air rooftop lounge, you won't have any trouble finding a nook to relax in. Better yet, get the full Moroccan experience and indulge in the in-house hamman and spa!

Perivolas Lifestyle Houses \ Santorini \ Greece

Perivolas is the ultimate in laidback luxury. Poised on the cliff high above the Aegean, this intimate escape is designed as a place where you can let the rest of the world slip away. Built amphitheatrically, Perivolas’ secluded location combines expansive views with the luxury of absolute tranquillity. It’s just a short walk from Oia, the most beautiful village on Greece’s most romantic and dramatic island, Santorini. Terraced gardens spill down the slope to the infinity pool, which seems to slip off the rim of the cliff and bleed into the blue horizon. Only the occasional toll of church bells or the whistle of a fishing boat far below breaks the meditative silence. It is easy to linger here all day, watching the changing light until the sun settles into the sea.
