Spotlights, Reviews, News and Features

The holiday season, in previous years, was very often one for travelling and enjoying the finer things in life with family and friends. Many travel-centric holidays have come and gone this year, and although new regulations and restrictions may have caused us to change our usual routines, new ways to enjoy the festivities and navigate this tricky time have come to light. From hiring celebrity chefs to wow your dinner guests, to a virtual Santa Claus bringing his holiday spirit, read on to see how Insignia can help you celebrate an exciting, luxurious, and adventurous holiday season within the comfort of your own home or your personal travel pod.

Exclusive Resorts

The exclusive resorts membership club is offering a getaway for the whole family in one of their luxurious residences on Costa Rica’s Peninsula Papagayo. As the focus of the festivities is always relaxation and dining, Exclusive Resorts will ensure you enjoy the ultimate experience this year with their options for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year’s Eve meals. This includes a three-course menu for contactless delivery direct to your door. For an even more festive experience, you can book a private chef who will cook a sumptuous four-course meal for you and your family in your own home. All there’s left to do is sit back, and enjoy the views with your loved ones! For more information about Exclusive Resorts’ locations and booking, please contact your PA at Insignia.

Onefinestay

As a leader in worldwide stylish rental properties, onefinestay offers you a special experience for this year’s festivities. With properties across America, Mexico, The Caribbean, and beyond, the opportunities are endless. The special thing about these properties is that many of them already come with add-on services like chefs, nannies, and butlers, but in lieu of the upcoming holidays, the company has introduced a unique and extravagant Festive Magic Menu for their guests. onefinestay is offering incredible services like a personalised and curated holiday dinner table-scape created by Vogue contributor Alice Naylor-Leyland alongside beautiful flower arrangements, virtual or in-person baking lessons featuring local and seasonal ingredients, at-home activities like Christmas tree preparation and wreath-making kits, and so much more! The most exciting offer for the little ones may be the virtual chat with Santa Clause about their holiday wishlists. Overall, with the stresses this year has brought upon us, it is no surprise that planning our holidays may be a bit troublesome – so let the professionals do it for you! Contact your PA at Insignia if you would like to more about the endless opportunities onefinestay has to offer.

Auberge Resorts

Known for their immaculate attention to detail when it comes to family-style holidays, Auberge Resorts have once again come up with an amazing offer to help ease the stress of your holiday-planning burden. Their two Los Cabos locations should definitely be on your list if you’re looking to enjoy a warm holiday this year. Choose between the extremely elegant Esperanza Resort & SPA or the more contemporary-chic Chileno Bay location. This Thanksgiving, Chef Mads Refslund will be providing private cuisine within your own villa. 

AKA

If a city break is what you’re looking for this winter holiday, AKA’s luxury serviced residences across New York City, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., and London can accommodate. They are offering a new package – the New Holiday Traditions – which will help guests enjoy a safe and fun way to reunite for the celebratory season. On top of that, when booking two or more suites for a minimum of seven days between 20 November 2020 and 03 January 2021, you’ll be able to enjoy a 10% discount on your accommodations! What makes this company so perfect for the holidays is that each suite is equipped with a living and dining area and a full kitchen that can be pre-stocked, which as we all know, is the heart of the home where everyone comes together. Welcome gifts and special AKA rates for activities, local shops, and photographers for family portraits are available. Even better, if you are celebrating with a big group, on-site areas such as conference rooms and screening rooms can be taken for private use. If you look forward to enjoying the exploration of these beautiful cities with your holiday crew, please get in touch with your PA at Insignia to find out more!

Yacht charters in the Caribbean and the Bahamas with Charter World

One way to safely enjoy a trip away from home and remain isolated at the same time includes the luxurious chartered trips across the beautiful clear waters of the Caribbean and the Bahamas. Strict hygiene protocols onboard Charter World’s vessels ensure the safety of your group, while private flights to and from your embarkation point minimise any risk to your family. Once you arrive onboard, there is nothing left to do but sit back, relax, and enjoy the range of facilities at your fingertips. These include – but are not limited to – diverse entertainment, spa facilities, fitness instructors, and much more. The only trouble you’ll have with this holiday is deciding which of the amazing destinations you want to visit! The endless and tempting options include Grenada, the US Virgin Islands, Antigua, Sint Maarten, and St. Barths. 

Iceland Adventure

Capturing the Christmas spirit in this beautiful country is effortless. The festivity pulsates from everywhere with Iceland’s endlessly lively Christmas markets and snow-capped trees. Wooden booths brimming with food, drinks, and gifts are exactly what the holidays are all about. Enjoy family activities like swimming in the Blue Lagoon’s geothermal waters, catching the northern lights as they glimmer in the dark sky, whale watching, and trekking near the Snæfellsjökull Glacier. Look to Iceland Luxury Lodges to solve all your accommodation queries. If you fancy a snowy adventurous Christmas holiday, please get in touch with your PA at Insignia for more information.
