When it comes to traveling, one of the most important decisions that has to be made is where to stay. Of course, there are plenty of options available, such as five-star resorts or luxurious vacation homes, but for something a bit more quaint and delightful, why not consider booking a room at an inn? If you think that this type of accommodations are anything but chic, think again. Some of the world's most indulgent vacation residences include this type of lodging.
If you're planning a getaway to the following places, you should absolutely contemplate staying at the two inns below:
♦ c/o The Maidstone, East Hampton, New York – This pre-Civil War residence was once a place that members of New York high-society visited during the 1920s. Just four years ago, the place was revamped by Swedish hotel keeper Jenny Ljungberg. She individually decorated each room to symbolize a famous Scandinavian hero.
Guests here can take advantage of the inn's spa, a restaurant, homemade picnic baskets and rotating art exhibits. Another plus? Dogs and cats are also welcomed.
♦ Korakia Pensione, Palm Springs, California – This Moroccan-inspired villa was founded by Scottish artist Gordon Coutts in 1924. It was originally meant to serve as a playhouse and art gallery for residents, however, that all changed after moviestar J. Carrol Naish constructed his Mediterranean estate next door in the 1930s.
These two structures comprise the Korakia Pensione and offer guests everything from yoga classes to hot bamboo massages to afternoon Moroccan tea.
Of course, in order to make the most of your inn vacation, you should hire a luxury sedan service like Hermes Worldwide. The industry's best chauffeurs will take you wherever you need to go including the airport, sites around the city and the inn you are staying at in a luxury SUV or limousine.
