Holidays are some of the best times in our lives – full of memory-making and mischief with the friends or family that we hold the dearest. This article expands upon one very important part of holidays – one that’s often overlooked in favor of experiences and sights: where you stay. Below are listed ten of the very best places to stay while abroad on your holidays, and brief reasons why they’re wonderfully unique and dazzlingly original.
5-Star Resorts
Plush, well-staffed and incredibly well-adorned, these opulent palaces of splendor are wonderful places to spend your time abroad. With buffet meals and bar drinks included, you might even struggle to see the point in leaving when your holiday comes to an end.
Private Villas
Whether you take your Holidays in Lanzarote or you like to head to Italian vineyards for your peace and quiet, something that can certainly be said of private villas is that they’re peaceful and serene. Book yours today in order to enjoy total peace and quiet on your trip.
Yachts
Well, this one is not for everyone – land-lubbers and seasick sailors, for instance – but if you can hack your time at sea, there are few better places to sleep then feet above the waves.
Yurts
Drawn from Mongolian culture but in fact, more ancient even than that, yurts are seen as the ‘in’ form of camping. Some even contain four-poster beds to help you feel extra-comfy wherever you are.
Log Cabins
If you’re thinking of Canada, you’re on the right tracks. Log cabins connect you to nature in a way that few other places can – and with traditional homeware and wonderful natural surrounds, it’s another isolated and blissful location for your holidays.
Couch Surf
Hopefully, the people who accept you to couch surf will put you in a bed, not on a sofa. But in any case, you’ll enjoy free lodging while also meeting local people who’ll help direct you through your time in your chosen destination.
Hostels
One for the younger crowd, hostels are all about saving cash and meeting people – and living on the cheap generally frees you up to eat better food, buy better wine, and enjoy better company than if you lived in private accommodation.
Cruise Liner
Take the aforementioned 5-star hotel, and plonk it into the sea – there you have it, you’re sleeping on a cruise liner. Bedecked with opulence and incredible facilities, they provide some of the best holidays, especially for the elderly.
Camping
Not quite staying in a yurt – you certainly won’t have a four-poster bed – camping is one of the staples of the holidaying accommodation options. It’s another option that returns you to nature – and you can set up anywhere in the world that you get permission.
Home Stay
Finally, if you work while you’re abroad, or you otherwise make a friend who offers to host you in their home, you’ve hit upon one of the holy grails of holiday accommodation. You’ll enjoy home-cooked food and homely comforts, all alongside your next friend and their family.
That’s it – the top ten places to stay on holiday or while abroad – all with their unique attractions, memories, and limitations.
