World’s Most Luxurious Destinations

While the media is full of doom and gloom over the finance crisis it does provide an opportunity for those still earning good money to experience luxury travel at a knock down price. As the rest of the world starts cutting back, it is now possible to book luxury holiday accommodation in some traditionally hard to get locations. If you can still afford it then this year is perfect to enjoy a destination with less crowds and better value. Low on ideas? Here are 5 tried and true luxury destinations:

Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia:

More than 10 million people visit the Gold Coast every year, and 90% of them are domestic tourists. Wide sandy beaches stretch for over forty kilometres along the coast so you won't have trouble finding a spot to lay your towel. Why let the locals to be the only ones to enjoy all this? Try your hand at surfing, pamper yourself silly on the favorable exchange rate, and relax into the famous Aussie hospitality with stylish Gold Coast holiday apartments such as Q1 accommodation.

Turkey’s Turquoise Coast:

You can find the Turquoise Coast where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Aegean. Most people know it as the Turkish Riviera, and they can’t believe that the all-inclusive resorts on the Turkish coast are really less than $100 a night. Yet with the exchange rate and the ability to make the season last almost year round, rates don’t need to be sky high for beachfront luxury suites. And the spas . . .you must pamper yourself with a Turkish bath trip after parasailing and snorkeling all day!

Fortaleza, Brazil:

Fortaleza, on the North Coast of Brazil, has been a fiercely guarded local luxury destination for years. Furnished condos are the place to stay, and the best are right on the beach. A whole array of beach activities such as soaking up the sun, learning to surf, sea fishing and more are awaiting. Flights via LAN are finally going direct from Miami starting this year so you don’t have to make the annoying transfer in Rio. 2007 and 2008 also saw the launch of a massive wave of refurbishment, making 2009 the perfect year for a visit.

Hainan Island in China:

Known as the Hawaii of China, the Miss Universe contest is held here at the posh Sanya Resort. Private beaches, clear water, and stunningly delicious fresh seafood are just a few of the luxuries to be had here. Traditional Eastern reflexology and indulgent 4-hands massages make it easy to sink into the hammocks next to the reflecting pools in Hainan—just be mindful that you don’t stay forever!

Mayan Riviera in Mexico

Let the spring break crowd hit Acapulco—the real treats are over on the Yucatan peninsula. You'll find all the trimmings you might expect for luxury five start resorts such as stunning gardens, pools and beaches with watersports. Tulum, Akumal, and Playa del Carmen are all home to fine hotels, while the cruise ships put in at Cancun and Cozumel. Mind the timing and you can swim with the dolphins without the cruise crowds, and enjoy all the luxury they leave behind when they get back on their boats.
