Ranging from an adults-only all-inclusive resort to a preserved historic villa, each of these properties provide personalised, authentic guest experiences across exciting destinations including South Africa, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, and the Dominican Republic.
Highlights include:

Preserved from its former life as a 250-year-old villa called “Casa d’Oro”, or “House of Gold," this brand-new luxury hotel is situated in a town known as the Pearl of Lake Maggiore, surrounded by a picturesque waterfront promenade, charming cobblestone streets, and the towering Alps.
Boutique Hotel Stresa exudes chic tranquillity, exemplified within the 30 unique accommodations, ranging from 26 spacious suites bathed in ample natural light to four private spa suites designed to offer indulgent treatments for overnight relaxation.
