Upon arriving at the Peninsula, you will find a bevy of magnificent cars in a signature green colour parked at the cobbled-paved central forecourt.

It took eight years to create ‘Atlantis, The Royal’ and it’s a resort unlike any you’ve ever visited. Before I got to see and experience it for myself though, I did ask myself whether Dubai really needed a second Atlantis. We tried the original – ‘Atlantis, The Palm’ – soon…
The Mandarin Oriental Doha is a hotel that seemingly took forever to open. First announced in 2005, its construction began back in 2006, only for the global economic downturn of 2008 to put a spanner in the works, halting the project until a little after Qatar had been awarded the…

What’s the point of travelling to some far-flung idyllic tropical getaway if you can’t share it on Instagram, right? I mean, if you don’t feel hashtag blessed in a dopamine-inducing paradise like Maldives, are you even alive? And if someone else doesn’t get jelly about it, can you even enjoy…
