Now that 2017 is coming to an end, it is time to see what’s in store for luxury travelers next yr.
According to the newest Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) trends report, it makes predictions about what travelers should attempt to experience at luxury hotels, in line with several key variables.
Let’s take a take a look at what this report suggests and where it leads travelers. Have any locations been spotted in Southeast Asia?
1. PRACTICAL POPULARITY
Given the growing demand for personalized, unique vacations, it’s almost natural for luxury travelers to wish to get their hands dirty within the name of personalization. From selecting the specified room atmosphere to picking your favorite toilet paper color and sweetness brand, you’ll be able to make certain that all this “work” will result in a richer, more customized experience.

2. SPIRITUAL DISCOVERY
As luxury travelers look for methods to set themselves apart with meaningful trips and killer photos, 2018 will see a greater emphasis on “self-discovery” that features mindfulness and deep spiritual exploration. This may include visiting myths, sanctuaries, temples and other places crammed with spirit, in addition to pampering yourself with a stargazing spa treatment within the evening.

3. LITERARY TOUR
Given the constant stream of data, the thought of a less complicated life free from digital technology sounds amazing. (At least temporarily.) Harkening back to a time when more people read books for entertainment, a more bibliophile-friendly vacation will include encounters with visiting artists, literary butlers, and experiences that pay homage to certain writers and classic novels.

4. SNOOZEFEST
With the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention labeling sleep deprivation a public health epidemic (BCC Research, January 2016), getting some good shut-eye is more luxurious than you would possibly think. So, plush bedding aside, luxury hotels in 2018 will offer an array of nap therapies and services provided by sleep curators and sleep butlers, not to say bedding that may do away with bacteria and ensure a healthy night’s sleep.

5. SENSITIVE DINING ROOMS
Why have a menu when you’ll be able to eat whatever you would like, each time and wherever you would like? With service providers’ primary concentrate on on-site personalization, smaller luxury hotels might be expected to realize deeper guest insights like never before. This signifies that highly trained staff will serve guests meals tailored to their mood and energy levels, preparing special adventures and offering meals in distinctive, private locations; inviting guests to eat in any room at any time once they feel hungry; plus full access to the cellar so guests can select their very own wine.
