A good travel year has been planned ahead. There are few villa stays but the schedule at this moment looks like this:
7 days+ stays:
- Belvedere Hotel Mykonos
- Amanzoe (following a stay somewhere in Elounda - possibly the Blue Palace?)
- Fullerton Bay/Amanjiwo/Amankila
+ sorting out an extended India visit at the moment
+ may tag along to Singita Boulders/Cape Town which my partner is visiting if I can take the time off
Weekend/3 day breaks
- Soho House Berlin
- Conservatorium or the Hoxton Amsterdam
- Soho House Barcelona
- Amanjena
- the London NYC
- Hotel d'Angleterre or Nobis Copenhagen
- Crillon (?) Paris
- Four Seasons Astir Palace Athens
- Cap-Du-Eden Roc Antibes
- Park Hyatt Vienna
- Hyatt Regency Palais de la Méditerranée Nice (not luxury but possibly my favourite choice for a stay in the city)

Another vote on Park Hyatt...Also, I've got a great client hitting 2 of the Awasi properties as well and have had good feedback from others on Awasi...you will enjoy it!
Didn't get the best feedback on The Thief when I sent a client who is a highly regarded contributor here. So, just manage your expectations

Thanks for the Park Hyatt recommendation.
I know luxury in Norway isn't the same as in Paris or London. Fortunately it's just a one night's stop over. I've never been to Oslo so I'm excited to see it.
I'm very much looking forward to experiencing the Awasi properties.

I'll be staying there in warmer weather this year. Do you follow them on instagram? What a beautiful location. I hope you'll come back and report, perhaps in this thread:

Who knows how the year will ultimately shake-out, but as of now, this is what we have planned:
Jan - Deer Valley (Private house)
Feb - Mexico City (FS)
March - Scottsdale (W)
April - Napa (Las Alcobas)
May - Vancouver (have not booked yet, what is best? Shangri-la, Rosewood, Four Seasons?)
June - New York (Pierre, for now)
July - Ibiza (TBD) and San Sebastian (Maria Cristina)
August - Bali (Amankila for sure, and then either just somewhere in Ubud or Ubud & Seminyak)
September - Nothing planned
October - New York (Pierre, for now)
November - Paris (Ritz)
December - Two trips planned for now, most likely to be changed, but as of now either Venice & skiing in Italy or a combination of Thailand / Laos / Cambodia

April
Gramercy Park Hotel, NYC - getting married here!
Waldorf-Astoria, Beverly Hills
Belmond El Encanto, Santa Barbara
June
InterContinental, Singapore
Amanjiwo, Java
The Legian, Seminyak
Amankila, Bali
The Upper House or Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong - one-night stay
Unfortunately besides the above, 2018 will likely be a limited travel year with likely no other (luxury) trips planned. Doing a bunch of non-luxury trips with friends to Mexico City, Vegas, and Norway (TBD) which will be a nice change of pace!
