CASA CORAL ROSEWOOD MAYAKOBA, RIVIERA MAYA, MEXICO Encircled by lush jungle and a cerulean lagoon, this three-bedroom villa is certainly striking in brilliant limestone against its vibrant surroundings. Designed to utilize the enchanting views, all bedrooms and living spaces are lagoon facing, with floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors. On the lower level you’ll find the master bedroom with private deck and outdoor rain shower, media room, kitchen, dining room and living room. Outside, the large terrace has a heated swimming pool that overlooks the lagoon, plus a private boat dock. The Casa’s butler is on hand to ensure your stay is perfect and can help arrange activites —we recommend visiting the sacred Mayan cenotes and swimming through the underwater caves.

ROYAL LOCHNAGAR SUITE GLENEAGLES, PERTHSHIRE, SCOTLAND More of a stately home than a suite, the Royal Lochnagar Suite is utterly charming. From the grand canopy-dressed four-poster bed to the bottle of Royal Lochnagar whisky waiting for you on arrival, every detail is considered to make you feel like a permanent resident of the imposing country estate. The one-bedroom suite, complete with private dining room and sitting room, has stunning views over Glendevon and Ochil Hills. Gleneagles offers plenty of country pursuits including shooting, falconry, archery, fishing and off-road driving, as well as plenty of activities to keep the kids entertained. After a day spent enjoying the fresh, pristine countryside, head to the Andrew Fairlie restaurant — the only restaurant in Scotland with two Michelin stars — for five-hour smoked lobster. From $5,045 per night. Contact Lorraine McCreadie, reservations manager, lorraine. mccreadie@gleneagles.com, +44 176 466 2231, gleneagles.com

PENTHOUSE SUITE HOTEL CALA DI VOLPE, SARDINIA, ITALY

This remarkably gorgeous hotel — positioned on the equally gorgeous Costa Smeralda — wouldn’t look out of place in a traditional fishing village with its rustic stone structures, domed archways and timber features. We love the charming Sardinian touches, such as the hand-painted furnishings and playful multicolored pastel staircase. The 2,690-sq-ft suite has three bedrooms, two living rooms and private wine cellar. The terracotta solarium is the same square footage as the whole suite, with a large private swimming pool and dining space for eight people — indulge in a long, relaxed dinner while taking in the spectacular coastal views. From $41,117 per night. Contact Franco Mulas, general manager, caladivolpe@luxurycollection.com, +39 078 997 6111, caladivolpe.com
