Amberlair: how we are going to create the first crowdsourced boutique hotel together

  • FIRST POSTED: 27th May 2015 | LAST UPDATED: 14th January 2016
I get asked many times what my favourite hotel in the world is, and I find it incredibly difficult to answer – in other words, it is like to ask a mother to pick a favourite child. But now, something very special is about to begin – a true revolution in luxury travel whereby me, you and everyone you know can be part of something unique: together, we are going to build the most perfect hotel in the world. And where? Well, we get to decide.

A luxury holiday in Funchal, Madeira (Portugal)

  • FIRST POSTED: 20th May 2015 | LAST UPDATED: 11th December 2020
I loved our 3 days in Madeira – and I was so mad with myself for taking so long to visit the island again. Our trip to Madeira with Sovereign was exceptional and we had one of our best weekends ever. #ParadiseFound indeed.

Lux Holiday: a weekend in Mumbai, India

  • FIRST POSTED: 7th May 2015 | LAST UPDATED: 21st January 2020
We had a taste of Mumbai, just a little one and it left us begging for more. The service we had everywhere was outstanding, everything worked despite the chaos around us and the people we met were out of this world. I honestly cannot wait to go back and explore some more.

Prague is a special city for me. Why? Because 10 years earlier, I was to meet the man I would marry 4 years later.

Spotting the Big 5 on Safari

  • FIRST POSTED: 5th April 2015 | LAST UPDATED: 19th December 2023
On my recent trip to South Africa, I spent 3 days at the Kruger Park – it was my first safari experience – and I have to say, I loved it. During our stay, we went on 4 game drives and we were incredibly lucky to spot the ‘Big 5’.

A lux weekend in Northern Ireland

  • FIRST POSTED: 18th March 2015 | LAST UPDATED: 8th September 2020
When I mentioned that I was going to Northern Ireland for a weekend, many friends and readers were really surprised. But it was one of the places I always wanted to go – it is shameful how little time I spend travelling around the UK, so I was keen to make it happen. Plus Mr. O does a fab Northern Irish accent and I wanted more. A lot more.

A lux weekend in Los Angeles, California

  • FIRST POSTED: 12th February 2015 | LAST UPDATED: 18th January 2021
I love LA. I love LA. I love LA. I know it is a love or hate city (and a very large city at that), but I am a fan. I am even a bigger fan of a little nice ‘mini-city’ (in true American style, of course) called Beverly Hills. You may have heard about it.
