France you`re
going to, there`s plenty of accommodation across the different regions
combining comfort, chic styles and reasonable prices. Truly delightful
hotels in the centre of

amphitheatre and conveniently near to the town square. Buildings are
renovated, while retaining their 17th century features and furnishings
are bright and locally made, with a mix of modern and antique styles.

town, outdoor terraces and lounges.

coastal settings and offer large, bright and airy rooms, with separate
balconies and terraces. Grounds include pools and luscious gardens.

coconut husks. With amazing sunsets behind the mountains, these `hidden`
locations make for amazing romantic retreats.

and golden beaches, the Nicoya peninsula of

relaxed spirit. Even popular with the celebrities, Leonardo DiCaprio has
stayed in a hotel here! Hotel rooms are brimming with Indonesian teak
and bamboo furniture plus elegant yet understated cushions and drapery.
Bathroom facilities are often open to the sky, small restaurants are
friendly and inviting and driftwood massage huts are readily available.

style designs. These cottages are truly unique, with a cultural blend of

windows. Surrounding grounds are dotted with desert plants and colourful
flowers. This location presents a real-laid back vibe and the

Restaurants serving fresh seafood are unusually situaed inside open-air
boats raised on stilts, with the chefs cooking fresh on demand.

cultural insight. Rooms contain rustic furnishings, wooden beams,
