4 Exotic Hotels to Escape To
In the mood for a holiday? It's that time of year when we go outside and see our breath.
When our cars are frosted over, and those of us who rely on our legs to get around, are very tempted to put them in a taxi.
The question is where do we go, and what excuse can we possibly give our boss to go away this time of year? No excuses required.
Below is a list of fabulous hotels that everyone must visit at some point in their life.
Go for a long weekend, relax, put your feet up, and roll around in the sheets of a bed you will never have to make.
Bear in mind, these hotels are all around the world, and may not be condusive to a long weekend trip for everyone.
Pick the one closest to you and make it happen.
Okay.
Here it goes.
1.
Four Seasons Hualalai, Big Island, Hawaii.
Look up "luxury" in the dictionary and you'll probably see a picture of a Four Season's hotel.
Hualalai on the Big Island is complete with six pools, a spa, amazing restaurants, shopping, and of course, the Jack Nicklaus golf course.
Moreover, the rooms offer a secluded feel- as if you are all alone on this little piece of Paradise.
2.
Hazelton Hotel, Toronto, Canada The Hazelton Hotel in the heart of downtown Toronto, is a design inspiration.
The bathrooms are one of the hotel's best features.
They are built out of full scale- granite stones, with deep soaker tubs and rain head showers.
The floors are heated and there are walking closets.
Need I say more? 3.
Castel Monastero, Tuscany Head twenty kilometres outside of Siena and find yourself at the exotic Tuscan retreat, Castel Monastero.
Take a cooking class, get drunk on the delicious wine stored in their 3,000 year old cellar, or go for a ride around the Ombrone Valley.
There are few things in this world as stunning as Tuscany.
Go.
4.
The Icehotel, Sweden This world renowned hotel grew out of a twenty year old igloo.
Today, it is the world's largest hotel of ice and snow.
It is only open during the winter and promises a "night to remember".
Guests can choose from ice rooms, warm rooms, and a wilderness camp, from where they can experience the outdoors north of the Arctic Circle.
So there you have it.
A few suggestions of exotic/luxurious getaways- one island, one big city, one in the countryside, and a hotel made entirely of ice and snow.
Make sure you pack appropriately.
