Because there’s always time for a good hotel oogle

So I just found out that the Maldives are only 3.5 hours from Singapore.  SAY WHAAAAAT??!  These stunning islands have swiftly moved to the top of my travel wishlist (cue big groan from Alistair), and I have to say I would not turn my snoz up at the fun contemporary Cheval Blanc Randheli hotel, designed by architect Jean-Michel Gathy.

Not bad huh?!  I’m loving the play off of traditional natural finishes against the more modern design.  What do you think…?

Have a happy weekend guys!

    Absurdly big rooms!! What to do with all that space? Roll around in it?!

    Hotel looks average. Would rather go camping…

  2. Ooh I didn’t realize it was that close! Actually I’ve heard the Andaman Islands are similar and not as touristy yet. Enjoy the trip planning and let me know if you want some recommendations (I’m writing about Boracay next week!)

    Now this is a piece of heaven on earth, I wouldn’t mind spending a week or 3 in such an exquisite scenic destination. Cant believe the water is that incandescent blue…I want to specially thank you for your wonderful birthday wishes, it meant so much to me :)

  5. This is exquisite. Like…I want my apartment/condo/home to be decorated in this exact way someday. Swoon! :)

  6. Not bad at all. I really love these pictures. So since it’s so close does that mean you’ll be taking a trip over there some time soon?
