      <image:caption>I’ll let you in on a secret. I’ve probably travelled more on my own than with anyone else. From the Seychelles to San Francisco, Hong Kong to Mauritius, Sardinia to Miami, Ibiza to Dubai - I’ve logged more miles as a party of one than as part of any travel tribe. I’ve travelled solo as a single woman, as a happily married woman, and countless times on professional assignments. And I honestly consider solo travel one of the greatest luxuries of my life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: Alone, Not Lonely: Discovering the World (and Yourself) One Trip at a Time. - The Luxury of Choice</image:title>
      <image:caption>Travelling alone means setting your own rhythm. Your own agenda. Your own mood. Want to linger on the beach for hours? Do it. Book a spa treatment on a whim? No discussion required. Choose a beachfront suite, your cocktail mixed precisely to taste, and the soft rustle of palms over polite conversation? Entirely yours. The idea that solo travellers must be endlessly sociable or on a quest for self-discovery is wildly misplaced. I already know who I am. I love exceptional hotels, ocean views, and the unbridled luxury of deciding my day without compromise. I don’t need a trip to tell me that!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Travelling alone doesn’t mean withdrawing from the world. Quite the opposite. People are often more open when you’re on your own. There is an art to fleeting connection: a conversation with a bartender about the day’s catch a local guide sharing their favourite hidden beach a knowing smile exchanged from the next sun lounger</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Let’s be honest, solo travel isn’t always glossy. I once headed to Alcatraz Island in San Francisco without telling a soul. No phone signal. No shared itinerary. Sitting on that boat, surrounded by strangers, I realised how easily independence tips into whoops!, if you’re not prepared.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Over time, I’ve developed my non-negotiables: ·      Always carry a spare, fully charged phone ·      Share plans with someone, hotel staff or a trusted contact ·      Use the hotel safe to store valuables including your passport ·      Keep emergency cash or a spare card separate ·      Trust your instincts without apology</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Dining solo unsettles people far more than it should. I don’t understand why. I often go to lunch on my own, even when in the UK. I really enjoy that alone time. And yes, you may be offered a magazine at dinner, something that never happens when you’re with others. I find it mildly irritating, and faintly hilarious, in equal measure. Lean into it. These moments become the stories.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Carlisle Bay has remained one of my personal top beach resorts in the world for good reason. It is a place I trust completely, both for myself and for clients who expect absolute privacy, integrity and seamless service. During my own stay, I felt genuinely cared for, without fuss or fanfare. My suite was beautifully luxurious yet understated, respectful of its surroundings and deeply comfortable.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: The Best Books for the Beach - There are many reasons I love beaches, but at their core, they make me feel alive.</image:title>
      <image:caption>For me, the greatest luxury isn’t five-star excess, it’s feeling warm sand between my toes, floating weightlessly in the sea, and watching the sun rise or melt into the horizon at sunset. That sense of calm, perspective and total freedom is intoxicating. Add a truly good book into that setting and I reach complete escapism, the kind that resets the soul.</image:caption>

Temperatures hover around a very civilised 28–32°C warm enough to feel indulgent, without tipping into the 40°C extremes that arrive later. Beach clubs, waterparks and outdoor attractions are all in full swing, and the sea is beautifully inviting. Image Courtesy of The Ritz Carlton, Dubai</image:caption>

The rainy season has just passed, the island is lush and green, and the weather settles into warm, dry days with cooler, more comfortable evenings.

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: New Year, New Travel Plans: The Best Time to Visit the World’s Most Beautiful Beach Destinations. - Let’s Get Planning</image:title>
      <image:caption>Since launching Love of Beaches, I’ve been delighted (and admittedly rather humbled) by the volume of enquiries from readers looking to turn inspiration into beautifully planned journeys. To ensure those trips are handled with the same care, insight and attention to detail that sits behind everything I share here, I created Shand Travel, a luxury boutique travel agency based in Hertfordshire, dedicated to planning, booking and managing luxury beach holidays with precision and ease.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Perhaps. But as I write this, the rain taps insistently at the window, the sky hangs low and heavy, and once again there’s no snow in sight. Just cold, wet, wind-blown UK familiarity.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: Luxury Winter Sun for Christmas 2026: A Dubai &amp;amp; Maldives Escape from the UK - Don’t Delay…</image:title>
      <image:caption>Truth be told, if you have specific preferences (travel dates, class of travel, room types, or you’re travelling as a family or group) destinations like the Maldives, Caribbean or Thailand are always best booked as far in advance as possible for the festive period.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: Luxury Winter Sun for Christmas 2026: A Dubai &amp;amp; Maldives Escape from the UK - I recommend Emirates.</image:title>
      <image:caption>For this itinerary, I suggest Emirates. Their routing through Dubai makes them ideal for a twin-centre journey to the Maldives, though if you wished to skip Dubai entirely, direct flights with British Airways or Virgin Atlantic are also available.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: Luxury Winter Sun for Christmas 2026: A Dubai &amp;amp; Maldives Escape from the UK - Is the Maldives Good at Christmas?</image:title>
      <image:caption>December and January are peak season for the Maldives because (typically) the weather is hot and mostly dry. But beyond the weather, this bucket list destination does something else to you entirely. It grounds you. It quietens the noise. It creates space, for reflection, intention and renewal. I find it a great place to set your intentions for the year ahead, so bring your journal, your vision board, your hopes for the year ahead, and get manifesting.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Accessibility in travel isn’t a niche topic; it’s the foundation of an inclusive, forward-thinking industry.

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: The Beach Lover’s Guide to Haircare Essentials. - A 100% Mulberry Silk Pillowcase</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is, without question, my number one tip. I have travelled with the same ivory silk pillowcase for over 15-years, washed of course between trips. It reduces friction, minimises frizz and breakage, and feels wonderfully indulgent after a day on the beach. The only drawback? It’s so subtle that more than once a hotel housekeeper has mistaken it for their own linen. Cue an awkward conversation at the front desk about a missing pillowcase. Thankfully, brands such as SLIP now offer printed versions that might just eliminate the risk of losing your hair’s most devoted overnight protector. Check out their colourful designs here</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I only discovered the magic of a jersey cotton hair towel recently, and it’s transformed my at-home haircare routine. I’ve now added one to my travel packing list, too. Gentle on fragile strands, quick-drying and space-saving, it’s a must for anyone looking to reduce post-shower friction and frizz. After trying a few cheap and cheerful versions from Etsy and Amazon, I just wasn’t convinced the t-shirt method worked. Then the lovely people at Good Wash Day sent me theirs to try in ‘Hot Pink’ and I instantly fell head-over-heels in love. As seen on Dragon’s Den, the texture and size is perfect, and using this every time I wash my hair has helped to improve the overall condition of my delicate lengths and ends.

      <image:caption>UV Protection Cream Calypso Sun-Sea Protection Leave-In Conditioner Just as we protect our skin in the sun, our hair deserves the same commitment. My go-to for years has been Kérastase Soleil Creme UV Sublime, it’s fantastic but it’s not the cheapest. I recently tested a version by Calypso and was genuinely impressed. It’s light, effective and surprisingly affordable. Calypso Scalp Protection Clear Protection Spray It is all too easy to forget your scalp, yet it’s incredibly vulnerable to sunburn. While facial SPF can work in a pinch, it tends to leave a visible residue. Dedicated scalp sprays, such as this one by Calypso feel far more subtle and avoid that glossy, slightly sweaty look we could all do without at breakfast. Amazon offer both these products at very reasonable prices.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I don’t have any colour or bleach in my hair at the moment, but during the years when I did, the COLOUR WOW Lock and Pop UV Serum was nothing short of a saviour. It adds instant gloss, tames frizz, and shields colour from the fading effects of the sun. Lightweight and versatile, it works beautifully on both wet and dry hair, leaving a sleek, polished finish while helping to temporarily smooth split ends. For anyone travelling with coloured hair, it is a holiday essential.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: The Beach Lover’s Guide to Haircare Essentials. - Shampoo and Conditioner for Sun-Exposed Hair</image:title>
      <image:caption>Salt, chlorine, and UV rays can quickly strip hair of its moisture and vibrancy, leaving it dry, brittle, and faded in colour. The key is to choose products specifically formulated for sun-exposed hair, those that gently remove salt and chlorine build-up while deeply hydrating and strengthening the hair fibre. For my latest beach trip, I tried the Charles Worthington Sunshine Protect range, a recommendation that proved spot on. It delivered excellent results at a fraction of the price of many luxury brands and comes in super-handy travel sizes, making it perfect for packing light. I bought mine from BOOTS, part of a 3 for 2 offer.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Stylish, sustainable and protective. I adore sourcing vintage silk scarves before a trip. They shield hair and scalp from the midday sun, elevate even the simplest outfit, and offer a bit of nostalgia and character in a world of branded sameness. TOP TIP: I tend to source my silk scarves from charity shops, Vinted and eBay often costing less than a fiver. A sustainable option that saves the pennies, and looks good.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Leave in hair oils keep sun-parched strands soft, supple, and well-nourished. For my last trip to the beach, I packed No. 7 Bonding Oil, which is a leave-in treatment from Olaplex. It’s packed with nutrient-rich ingredients, offers heat protection up to 450°F/232°C, and works wonders on taming flyaways during humid evenings. I simply smoothed it through the lengths and ends of towel-dried hair in the evening and let its restorative formula work its magic overnight.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>At home (at least once or twice a week) I treat my hair to a proper conditioning ritual. I personally rate L’Oréal Metal Detox, particularly after days spent in and out of the ocean. It leaves hair silky without feeling weighed down. When travelling, I tend to apply this more frequently, typically every other day.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: The Beach Lover’s Guide to Haircare Essentials. - Keeping Hydrated is Key</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hydration is the unsung hero of a successful beach holiday. In hot climates, your body is working overtime just to stay cool, so every sip of water counts. Long flights only make things worse. Hours in a cabin where the air is drier than the Sahara will leave skin and hair gasping for moisture before you’ve even unpacked your suitcase. Treat drinking water like applying sunscreen, a non-negotiable.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Article: The Beach Lover’s Guide to Haircare Essentials. - Tracey Ann Smith: Multi award-winning hairdresser, Educator and Creative Director at Mood Hair Colour, plus the owner of Belper based salon French &amp; Ivi.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Tracey Says… My must-have beach holiday essential is the MOOD Solution Suncare No-Rinse 10-in-One Spray Milk. Think of it as a multitasker: it protects against sun exposure while nourishing with a cocktail of vitamins and minerals. A quick spritz on damp hair delivers hydration, shine, and heat protection, keeping your locks soft and silky even after long beach days. I’m also loving the MOOD Solution Suncare Hair &amp; Body Cleanser. After a dip in the sea or pool, it gently washes away salt and chlorine while rehydrating both hair and body. It’s the perfect two-in-one companion for those who like to pack light but still look polished. You can book an appointment with Tracey here</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Kat says… Getting your hair trimmed before going on holiday can be beneficial for your hair health, especially if your hair is damaged or has split ends. A trim helps remove breakage, prevent further splitting, and keeps your hair looking healthy. Healthier hair is better able to withstand the stress of environmental exposure, such as sun, chlorine, or saltwater, which are common during holidays!

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Don’t Let the Word ‘Winter’ Fool You: What to Expect in Mauritius in June, July and August. - Mauritius in the months of June, July, August is not a winter in the conventional sense.</image:title>
      <image:caption>The island still feels delightfully tropical, with the daily temperatures typically reaching between 23 and 25°C. This time of year, brings plenty of sunshine, and is perfect for al fresco lunches, barefoot beach walks, and sea swims that start with a gasp and end with a refreshing grin.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>From July through August, the southeasterly winds make their annual entrance. They tend to be strongest on the east and south coasts, creating ever-changing microclimates. Le Morne is a perfect example: the beach here curves just so, creating distinct pockets. One end might be glassy calm, while the other hosts a vibrant kite surfing scene, sails dancing across the lagoon like silk in the breeze.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Denis Private Island, Seychelles - Scheduled Daily Flights</image:title>
      <image:caption>Air Seychelles operates scheduled daily flights which connect Mahé and Denis Island. Departing Mahé Island to Denis Island at: 11h30 Departing Denis Island to Mahé Island at: 12h15 A Quick Note on Luggage Allowance Due to space limitations on the aircraft, guests are permitted one piece of checked baggage not exceeding 15 kg (33.1 lb). You're also welcome to bring a small piece of hand luggage, weighing no more than 7 kg. However, please note that trolley bags are not permitted as hand luggage on the Denis Private Island scheduled flights. Now, don’t be alarmed (or offended) if you are asked how much you weigh before you arrive (we promise it's not personal!). Denis Private Island requires the body weight (in kilograms) of all guests before they can confirm a booking. This is essential for safe flight planning and load management, not for judging how many croissants you've had at breakfast.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Denis Private Island, Seychelles - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>Oh Denis, Denis, beautiful Denis, what a phenomenon you are! A magical island blessed with natural splendour and authenticity with a laid-back vibe that encourages a slower pace. If you need to recharge, then this is the private island paradise for you. I loved every second of my stay. The forced social media detox, due to the almost non-existent WiFi, was actually what I needed at the time. And the farm-to-table approach made everything feel wholesome and authentic. Denis is the perfect place for a special occasion, or a 'just because' beach escape to paradise. Take me back. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

Colourful markets, Indian temples, French influences, and African rhythms all harmonise here, creating a rich tapestry of experiences. Families and groups will love how easy it is to explore, from snorkelling off the coast to trekking in Black River Gorges National Park.

      <image:caption>By late March, the weather is perfect, think very warm averages (up to 28-32c), not super-scorching (by this I mean, 40c+ that can be felt in the months that follow) making it prime beach weather. The city’s signature attractions like The Dubai Miracle Garden and numerous waterparks such as Aquaventure are all in full swing. Plus, March is just ahead of Ramadan (which varies year to year), so you can enjoy the full culinary scene without restrictions. Image courtesy of Jumeriah Burj Al Arab</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In my experience, the best time to visit Mauritius for those dreamy, sun-drenched beach days is typically between May and early December, when the weather is mostly dry, warm, and beautifully settled. If I had to choose, I would travel in May when the weather tends to be pure magic: it’s gorgeous. Think sunny days and pleasantly cool evenings, and the island is just waking up from the rainy season, so everything is lush and green. It’s a great time to explore the beaches, hike through Black River Gorges National Park, or take a catamaran to Île aux Cerfs. Image Courtesy of MTPA</image:caption>

During this time, the islands bask in beautifully warm, calm conditions, ideal for lazy beach days, snorkelling in crystal-clear waters, and soaking up that postcard-perfect scenery. This is transition season, meaning you get calm seas, gentle trade winds, and the perfect mix of sunshine and occasional light rain. Image Courtesy of Seychelles Tourism Department.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>No matter which island you find yourself on, the beach is likely to leave you speechless. The beaches of the Maldives are world-famous for their white sands and dazzlingly clear waters, but the magic goes far beyond their beauty. Snorkelling and diving enthusiasts will find themselves in heaven, with some of the best marine life on Earth. The reefs are busy with tropical fish, manta rays, turtles, and even gentle whale sharks. Whether you’re seeking the lively atmosphere of popular resort beaches or the serene solitude of a private stretch of sand, the Maldives delivers. Our personal favourite kind is the sandbank beaches, where you can feel like you’ve stepped onto a deserted island, surrounded only by uninterrupted ocean views.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Travel Guide: the Maldives - Insider’s Tip:</image:title>
      <image:caption>After landing in Malé, your journey continues with a scenic transfer to your chosen island resort, typically by seaplane, speedboat or domestic flight, depending on location. Good to know: If you’re booking flights and accommodation without the help of a Travel Agent / Maldives specialist, it’s important to note that seaplanes and some boats operate only during daylight hours (after sunrise and before sunset). Arriving in Malé outside this window may require an overnight stay on the mainland before continuing to your resort the following day.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Travel Guide: the Maldives - A Variety of Experiences</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Maldives offers more than just beach lounging. There’s plenty to do, including sunset cruises, paddleboarding, or even night snorkelling for the more adventurous. For a cultural experience, visit a local island to discover the Maldivian way of life, or indulge in a traditional Bodu Beru drum performance. If you’re a foodie, don’t miss the chance to experience a Maldivian cooking class, where you’ll learn to prepare dishes infused with exotic spices and fresh seafood.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Travel Guide: the Maldives - Dining</image:title>
      <image:caption>Maldivian cuisine is a flavourful fusion of South Indian, Sri Lankan, and Arabic influences. Fresh seafood takes centre stage, with tuna, lobster, and crab featured in many dishes. Must-try delicacies include ‘mas huni’ (a breakfast dish of tuna and coconut), and the fiery fish curries spiced with chili and lime. While dining in the Maldives is often a luxurious experience with fine dining options at the resorts, don’t miss out on tasting local street food if you venture out to Malé and its bustling fish markets. The fusion of flavours and spices will leave your taste buds tingling long after you’ve left the islands. Image Courtesy of Amilla Maldives</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I often find myself reminiscing about my trips to the Maldives, the world’s most iconic beach destination and a bucket-list favourite for so many. It’s a place where turquoise lagoons meet sugar-white sands, and the wow-factor of the marine life is just as striking above water as it is below. From glamorous overwater and beach villas to pristine coral reefs teeming with colourful fish, the Maldives defines what it means to 'fly and flop' in style. It’s the ultimate in beachside bliss, where time slows down, the seafood is always fresh, and every sunset feels like a celebration. The Maldives is, without a doubt in my mind, one of the most amazing places on earth, and it continues to hold an incredibly special place in my heart.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>When Heritance Aarah first opened in 2019, a friend of mine was among its very first guests, she adored it and couldn’t stop raving about her experience. Naturally, thanks to her glowing review, my expectations were sky-high. I’m pleased to say that, for the most part, the resort truly lived up to the hype. As a relatively new addition to the Maldives’ luxury resort scene, Heritance Aarah has done a terrific job of quickly finding its rhythm and flow. I found the premium all-inclusive package exactly as promised, generous and comprehensive. I’ve arranged plenty of stays for clients to Heritance Aarah, and their feedback continues to be positive, reflecting the five-star experience the resort strives for. All in all, Heritance Aarah left a fantastic impression, and I wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend it. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: LUX* Le Morne, Mauritius - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>From the treehouse on the beach (an idyllic spot to reserve for a sunrise breakfast or an open-air film night) to the genuinely warm service that flows through every part of the resort, this is a place that delivers quietly yet with absolute confidence. The location is exceptional: guests enjoy calm, clear waters with barely a whisper of wind, and the dramatic silhouette of Le Morne Brabant rising watchfully behind. The sun loungers and the oversized beach beanbags, were blissfully comfortable, inviting hours of relaxation beneath the sun. Service was as polished as I had hoped, with every detail thoughtfully managed.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Constance Moofushi, Maldives - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>Constance Moofushi has long been renowned for its extraordinary house reef, teeming with vibrant marine life and intricate coral formations. Snorkelling here is nothing short of spectacular. In fact, during my stay, two friends joined a boat trip only to return and agree they had encountered more marine life right by the resort than they did further afield, proof of just how special Moofushi’s underwater world truly is. Beyond the reef, the resort itself embraces a laid-back, rustic-luxe aesthetic. The villas, though slightly more compact than some Maldivian counterparts, exude a charming shabby-chic vibe that feels both authentic and laidback. For those who prefer understated elegance over glossy modernity, this style is a perfect fit. Whilst my Water Villa didn’t have a bathtub, just a shower, I was pleased to learn that the Senior Water Villas do offer baths for those who prefer a long soak to the sound ocean.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>From the moment I set foot on Baros, I knew I was about to experience an idyllic escape. A luxury boutique resort with an impeccable legacy spanning over 52-years, Baros has mastered the art of hospitality, offering understated elegance, and warm, intuitive service. The welcoming yet discreet atmosphere strikes a perfect balance, staff are always present but never intrusive, anticipating every need with a seamless grace honed over decades of excellence. Baros artfully harmonises its pristine natural surroundings with chic design and thoughtful touches. Dining at Baros was an absolute delight, and nowhere more so than at The Lighthouse, the resort’s flagship restaurant. While I nearly fell off my chair when I saw the price of the Wagyu steak, I decided to take the plunge, and I’m so pleased that I did. It was love at first bite: buttery, rich, and meltingly tender. To this day, it remains the best steak I have ever eaten, and worth every single penny.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Unwinding in the world’s first underwater spa, surrounded by the hypnotic blues of the Indian Ocean, remains one of my most unforgettable Maldivian experiences. I arrived expecting a traditional lie-flat treatment but soon discovered that Huvafen Fushi elevates wellness to an entirely new level, quite literally. There I was, sat upright, suspended in a dreamlike state as marine life drifted past, enjoying a sensory escape unlike anything I had ever imagined. The accommodation embodies modern luxury with effortless ease. My villa, an architectural masterpiece of sleek lines and contemporary elegance, was an oasis of indulgence. The presence of both a front and back private pool was a decadent surprise, one for soaking with endless ocean views, the other for a more secluded dip under the stars. Every detail, from the crisp linens to the intuitive design, has been meticulously curated for a truly wonderful retreat.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Amilla, Maldives - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>Here’s the thing—when my seaplane began its descent towards Amilla, I felt a flicker of confusion. Rather than thatched-roof overwater bungalows that I’d come to expect in the Maldives, instead I saw a cluster of sleek, white structures that wouldn’t have looked out of place on a British seaside holiday complex. It was unexpected, to say the least. But if it’s good enough for some of the world’s most celebrated names in sport, TV and film, who was I to be sceptical? So, I set my preconceptions aside, and the moment I stepped into my overwater villa, it all clicked. Expansive, airy, and strikingly modern, the space wasn’t just designed to impress, it was designed to be lived in. With a clever indoor-outdoor flow, high ceilings, and panoramic views of endless turquoise, it felt different to what I had experienced before.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>As someone who has a deep appreciation for interior design, Mango House instantly won me over the moment I stepped into the impeccably designed lobby. With its intimate, luxury home feel, bathed in natural light and adorned with soft furnishings and exquisite décor, I immediately felt a sense of welcome, comfort, and warmth, like I had arrived home. The food here is equally impressive, bursting with flavour and served with the utmost care, while the service is exactly what you’d expect from a five-star boutique hotel: attentive, consistent, and delivered with genuine hospitality. For anyone looking to stay in Mahé, this gem is a top choice, especially for those who appreciate a really comfortable bed and a tranquil escape that combines elegance with bundles of charm.

      <image:caption>In Creole ‘Zil Pasyon’ means "island of passion," which perfectly describes this dreamy resort. From the moment I arrived, I was enveloped in a sense of serenity that only an island retreat can offer. The service throughout was flawless. The warm, attentive staff anticipated every need, making me feel like the only guest on the island. One of the standout moments of my stay was having the spa pool all to myself. Elevated on stilts, and enjoying a great spot among the island’s iconic granite boulders, the setting felt almost otherworldly, as if nature and design had quietly conspired to create the ultimate sanctuary, just for me. Bliss! Floating there in total peace, surrounded by stillness and beauty, was an experience I’ll never forget. It was just me, myself and I – no distractions, no noise, I left feeling completely recharged, energised, and deeply grounded. Truly one of the most sensational spa pools I’ve ever had the pleasure of slipping into. Take me back! Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: The Oberoi, Mauritius - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>I always aim to approach a hotel stay without any preconceived ideas, but that’s easier said than done when it’s one of the world’s most renowned (multi-award winning) hotels. The Oberoi, Mauritius, certainly lives up to its reputation for impeccable service, I stayed here for my birthday and was made to feel truly special, with thoughtful touches like a personalised birthday cake, card from the team, and plenty of celebratory flair. The whole experience was luxurious and felt super-chilled. I’d say the Oberoi caters more to those craving quiet sophistication than to anyone looking for a lively atmosphere, because in my experience it’s somewhat missing any energy or vibe. That said, if calm, understated elegance is what you’re after, The Oberoi delivers it beautifully. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Travel Guide: the Seychelles - Insider’s Tip:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Island hopping is one of the most sought-after ways to explore the Seychelles, with many travellers choosing to divide their stay across multiple islands. However, for those who prefer a more settled pace without the hassle of unpacking and repacking, an equally enriching alternative would be to book a single-hotel stay on Mahé and combine it with carefully curated day trips to Praslin and La Digue.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Whether you’re chasing postcard-worthy beaches or craving something a little more wild and untamed, the Seychelles delivers in spades. From underwater exploration to scenic hikes, the islands offer a wide array of activities that cater to every traveller’s interests. The Seychelles is an adventurer’s dream, blending relaxation with exhilarating activities. Whether you’re hiking lush trails, snorkelling alongside marine wonders, or discovering island gems, history and culture - this tropical haven has something for everyone.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The waters surrounding the Seychelles are ridiculously clear, the sort of clarity that makes you do a double take. Beneath the surface, coral gardens bustle with life: expect sea turtles gliding by with nonchalant elegance, schools of fish darting like confetti, and, if you’re lucky, a reef shark cruising in the blue. Whether you're diving off Mahé, snorkelling at Anse Lazio, or exploring La Digue’s shallows, the marine life here doesn’t disappoint. Image Credit: Seychelles Tourism Board</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Each Seychellois island is a character in its own right. Mahé’s rugged coastline and buzzing capital, Praslin’s laid-back charm, and La Digue’s sleepy lanes and iconic granite boulders, there’s no shortage of contrasts. Then there’s Silhouette Island, with its castaway vibe and barely-touched beaches. Hop on a boat, keep your camera handy, and let the adventure unfold at its own pace.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Travel Guide: the Seychelles - 4. Private Tour of Mahé</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mahé deserves more than just a drive-through. Arrange a private tour with a local driver (come guide) and explore the island through a more authentic lens. Visit Victoria’s colourful market, it’s small, but brimming with life. Stroll through the Botanical Gardens, sample home-grown spirits at the Takamaka Rum Distillery, and don’t miss Cap Lazare Nature Reserve, a private gem tucked away on the southern coast. Insightful, scenic and completely customisable.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The international airport on Mahé (SEZ) offers morning or evening flights to Europe. To make the most of your island-hopping experience, and to remove the stress of coordinating ferry schedules with flight times - it's advisable to finish your itinerary with your last night on Mahé. We always recommend L’Escale Resort Marina &amp; Spa, whilst not a beach hotel, it's a super nice boutique hotel, situated on a small marina, and conveniently located close to the airport: L'Escale Resort Marina &amp; Spa www.lescaleresort.com</image:caption>

      <image:caption>I can’t help but continue to wax lyrical about the Seychelles. Known for its luxury resorts and unparalleled natural beauty, the Seychelles offers an exotic paradise for even the most discerning travellers, for me it’s a whole lot more! It feels like an oasis of pure magic that leaves me feeling spellbound, grateful and grounded. The towering granite boulders and gentle giant tortoises lend an almost surrealistic quality to the islands, while the soft, powdery sand and bath-warm turquoise waters make you feel as if you've stepped into a postcard. The food is a vibrant reflection of the culture, fresh, flavourful, and unforgettable. But it's the warmth of the people, so genuinely welcoming, that leaves the deepest mark. It’s the kind of place that doesn't just take your breath away, it makes you feel like you belong. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Travel Guide: Mauritius - Insider’s Tip:</image:title>
      <image:caption>In addition to the beachside bliss, many travellers choose to enhance their Mauritius experience by splitting their trip between an exclusive mountain retreat and a dreamy beach resort, offering the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Adding a stay in the mountains offer a contrasting perspective of the island's natural beauty. Think lush forests, cascading waterfalls, and panoramic views that add a new dimension to the Mauritian experience. Our recommendation and a popular choice for many is Lakaz Chamarel. This exclusive mountain retreat always receive rave reviews, not only its stunning location but also for its exceptional hospitality. www.lakazchamarel.com</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Mauritius captured my heart from the first visit. It's the perfect blend of stunning beaches, lush green mountains, and top-notch hospitality. The option of direct flights makes getting there a breeze, and once you arrive, it's just a simple airport transfer, no island-hopping required. The warmth of the people is another reason I love Mauritius. Locals welcome you like family, and the food (thanks to a blend of French and Creole influences) is always a gourmet delight. The French wines paired with local flavours elevate every meal. It’s easy to see why it’s such a favourite with those that appreciate the finer things in life. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Le Domaine de L’Orangeraie Resort &amp;amp; Spa, La Digue, Seychelles - La Digue is the sleepier sibling to Mahé and Praslin, where time moves to the rhythm of the tide and life unfolds at a leisurely pace. Here, Creole houses tuck themselves beneath papaya trees, their gardens overflowing with bright tropical flowers. Fishermen stroll barefoot along sandy paths, carrying the day’s catch strung on sticks, while wooden pirogues drift lazily across the lagoon. The island is (almost) entirely free of cars, with bicycles the favoured mode of transport. Locals, however, are equally happy to walk (albeit slowly) enjoying the unhurried charm that defines this community.</image:title>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Le Domaine de L’Orangeraie Resort &amp;amp; Spa, La Digue, Seychelles - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>Most accommodation on La Digue consists of small guesthouses or self-catering villas, so for those seeking a full-service hotel experience, Le Domaine de L’Orangeraie remains the leading choice. It is important, however, to set expectations: this is a four-star property with a rustic elegance rather than a polished, ultra-luxury finish. That very character, however, is what allows it to blend so beautifully with the island’s unspoilt, free-spirited charm. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Just like its esteemed sister property, One&amp;Only Royal Mirage, One&amp;Only The Palm is a spectacular resort that exudes opulence and class. Spending my birthday here was nothing short of magical, an unforgettable experience made even more special by a long, leisurely lunch at 101 Dining Lounge and Marina. The food was delicious, the setting breathtaking, and the service truly exceptional. A seven-minute boat transfer between The Palm and Royal Mirage offers even more world-class dining options, making every meal a delight. The accommodation is of the highest standard, allowing guests to escape the ordinary and immerse themselves in pure luxury. From the stunning surroundings to the impeccable One&amp;Only service, every detail is thoughtfully curated. The Guerlain Spa is a sanctuary like no other, blending French beauty expertise with local healing rituals for the ultimate indulgence. One&amp;Only The Palm is more than just a hotel, it is a beach resort that redefines luxury. Perfect for a special occasion, it delivers an experience that lingers long after departure. I simply cannot wait to return! Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: One&amp;amp;Only, Royal Mirage, Dubai. - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>I first fell head over heels for the One&amp;Only brand during a stay at TheOne&amp;Only Royal Mirage with my Mum, many years ago. It was one of my first visits to Dubai, and the experience was simply flawless. From the design to the impeccable service, everything felt true to its roots, luxury at its finest. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of staying at other properties within the group, each one surpassing my expectations, making it clear that One&amp;Only consistently delivers exceptional experiences. The Royal Mirage remains one of my top recommendations for a beach holiday in Dubai, particularly for clients seeking something extraordinary or celebrating a special occasion. I’ve had the fortune of revisiting several times since that initial stay, and I can confidently say that the perfection of my first visit continues to be upheld. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:caption>As someone who’s experienced more than a fair share of luxury beach hotels around the world, I often find myself looking for those rare properties that strike the perfect balance, where refined service doesn’t feel stiff, and opulence is delivered with warmth and authenticity. The Ritz-Carlton, Dubai is exactly that. It’s a firm favourite of mine, especially when recommending a resort that embodies what I’d call true luxury: that golden standard of hospitality where every detail is thoughtfully considered, every guest is genuinely welcomed, and the atmosphere is one of effortless calm, despite being set in the heart of bustling JBR.

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: La Maison 20 Degrés Sud - Relais &amp;amp; Châteaux - It’s worth noting that the beach, though picturesque, is on the smaller side, with limited sunbathing spots, something perhaps to consider if long stretches of sand are a priority. However, for those seeking a tranquil, characterful retreat where luxury is understated yet ever-present, 20 Degrés Sud is a truly special place to unwind.</image:title>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: La Maison 20 Degrés Sud - Relais &amp;amp; Châteaux - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>20 Degrés Sud offers an inviting and intimate escape with all the charm of a boutique retreat. From the moment I arrived, the warmth and hospitality were unmistakable, creating a refined yet homely atmosphere. The attention to detail, quaint décor, subtle touches of elegance, and a sense of exclusivity, makes it feel delightfully personal, as though you’ve discovered a well-kept secret. The culinary experience is a standout, with breakfast in particular being a personal highlight, beautifully prepared, super-tasty and noticeable fresh. While some guests find the food and drink prices on the higher side for a four-star property, the quality is undeniable, making it, in my opinion, well worth the indulgence. Evenings at 20 Degrés Sud hold their own enchantment. Often, a live pianist sets the scene at dinner with soft, melodic notes, creating a fun yet relaxed ambience. On many occasions, diners take to the floor, swaying to the live music in an impromptu dance, adding to the hotel’s effortless charm. Such fun and so lovely to see!  Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:caption>LUX* Grand Baie took me completely by surprise and in the best possible way!  It wasn’t at all what I had anticipated. Yes, it’s a five-star resort, and yes, it’s perched on a stunning beachfront, but its striking design, bold architecture, and statement interiors are a world away from anything traditional or typically Mauritian. From the moment I arrived, it felt as though I’d been whisked away to a chic, contemporary playground brimming with energy. The atmosphere is effortlessly cool, the culinary offerings are nothing short of exceptional, and the overall vibe is one of pure, unfiltered fun. It’s a place that seamlessly blends sophistication with a playful spirit.  Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Park Hyatt, Dubai - While the Park Hyatt Dubai feels like a world unto itself, its prime location ensures that the best of the city is always within easy reach.

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Park Hyatt, Dubai - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>Park Hyatt Dubai plays the beach card so convincingly and stylishly that you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s a classic beachfront resort, but technically, it’s not. Yes, there is a beach, but it’s manmade; and yet, somehow, it delivers the same sense of sun-soaked escapism as any oceanfront retreat. My love affair with Dubai began the moment I realised it’s a destination that delivers the extraordinary in bucketloads, a city of boundless ambition, where the lavish is standard and the impossible feels entirely doable. And Park Hyatt Dubai fits right in, even if it does so in the most understated of ways. From the moment you step onto the property, you're whisked away from the city’s gleaming skyscrapers into a tranquil, Mediterranean-style escape. Whitewashed walls, elegant archways, and soft blue accents conjure scenes of the Greek Isles or the South of France. Add to that lush gardens, winding waterways, and sun-drenched terraces, and you’ve got an atmosphere of pure escapism that feels worlds away from the Dubai most people expect.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Jumeirah Burj Al Arab, Dubai - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>I am often asked what it’s like to stay in the world’s most famous hotel, and I say it’s a blend of privilege, awe, and let’s be honest, a touch of anxiety about whether another cocktail might mean remortgaging the house! When describing the aesthetics of a hotel like this, words like “exquisite” and “extraordinary” are rarely used with absolute conviction. Yet with the Burj Al Arab, these adjectives don’t just feel appropriate, they almost fall short. It truly lives up to the hype. I recommend staying at the Burj Al Arab at least once in your lifetime, even if only for a single night. Should your budget not stretch that far, consider booking the renowned afternoon tea or dining at one of its exceptional restaurants. The architecture alone is breathtaking, expect a bold, visionary design that still manages to astonish, no matter how many times you've seen it. To experience the Burj, even briefly, is to step into a dreamscape. This is no ordinary hotel; it is a theatrical masterpiece of hospitality, a modern Arabian wonderland.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: W Hotel, Mina Seyai, Dubai - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>Every visit to this W hotel reaffirms why it remains one of my favourite places to stay in Dubai. As expected from the brand, it effortlessly balances bold design, vibrant energy, and impeccable service. Time and again, it delivers an experience that is both indulgent and refreshingly unpretentious. The ambience is sleek yet never ostentatious, luxurious, but in a way that invites you to relax rather than intimidates. One of its greatest draws for me is the outstanding all-inclusive offering, where quality is never compromised. From expertly brewed premium coffee to fine wines and exceptional cuisine available throughout the day, every detail is thoughtfully curated. And then there’s the private beach area (within the stretch of beach shared with Le Meridien and The Westin) complete with supremely comfortable sun loungers and seamless, attentive service, it’s the perfect place to surrender to Dubai in style.</image:caption>

The striking entrance and effortlessly elegant lobby (complete with a curated high-end boutique) set the stage for the indulgent experience ahead, serving as a gentle yet unmistakable reminder: this is luxury, uncompromised.  This resort truly delivers on its 5-star promise. The setting is nothing short of stunning, the accommodation is exceptional, the service is excellent, and the dining options are simply superb. That said, it’s worth noting that this is a very discreet retreat, attracting individuals who value their privacy. I think it’s fair to say that if you’re looking for a social, friend-making holiday atmosphere, then this may not be the place for you. However, if you’re after beachside luxury guaranteed, One&amp;Only Le Saint Géran is hard to beat. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>

      <image:title>Love of Beaches: Beach Travel Blog - Review: Constance Prince Maurice, Mauritius - Editor’s Note</image:title>
      <image:caption>If repeat guests were the measure of a resort’s success, Constance Prince Maurice would undoubtedly be a front-runner. I am not exaggerating when I say I’ve had clients call me directly from the resort to secure their booking for the same time next year, which speaks volumes. And honestly, I can see why. This is a resort that delivers exactly what it promises: five-star luxury at its absolute finest - but not in a stuffy way. From the impeccably prepared cuisine to the attentive service, everything here displays excellence. It’s a place that not only meets expectations but consistently exceeds them, leaving guests longing to return year after year. Happy Travelling, Amanda</image:caption>
