The most exclusive all-inclusive

Once avoided by well-heeled travelers, resorts make a comeback

Forbes Traveler: Luxury Travel
Blame Linda Hamilton. Long before her star turn in “Terminator 2,” the actress appeared in “Club Med,” a made-for-TV homage to the all-inclusive experience. Until fairly recently, to these moneyed travelers, the idea of vacationing at an all inclusive resort held little appeal and even less cachet. A new generation of luxe all-inclusives is wooing the once cynical jet set with posh accommodations, lavish amenities, gourmet wining and dining and a standard of service that rivals the toniest resorts. 10 celebrity-owned resorts

The levels of luxury range from posh to princely with prices to match. “We’re definitely raising the bar for luxury all-inclusive properties,” says Fernando Garcia, Managing Director of The Royal in Playa del Carmen on Mexico’s Riviera Maya. Guests booking the resort’s top tier suites earn extra perks such as free international and domestic calling and a spin in a BMW Mini Cooper.

When money is no object, what’s the allure of an all- inclusive? “It’s about the worth of the experience relative to the price paid.”

Luxury all-inclusive tariffs are all over the place. So we’ve come up with a tasting menu of top resorts around the world in all price ranges. Unless otherwise stated, resort fees, taxes and gratuities are not included.

Time Really Is Money for Luxury Consumers

Luxury Spa

All around the world, luxury consumers have similar definitions of luxury. Lynn Franco, Director of The Conference Board Consumer Research Center says that “The largest share of luxury consumers (44%) and the largest share of consumers in each country most strongly agree that ‘luxury is having enough time to do whatever you want and being able to afford it.’

British consumers are interested in Internet and cell phone usage, videos/DVDs, wine and gourmet goods among other things.

What is the definition of luxury for those who are dubbed luxury consumers? Luxury is being able to pursue one’s personal passions and interests.

It is no surprise that the only country in which a large part (46%) of consumers believe luxury is defined by the brand is China.

What would you do with more time?
I’d go to the spa of course.

CELEBRITY SPAS

Celebrity Spa

Where celebrities love to go for rest, relaxation and mind-body renewal.

Celebrities work hard to be perfect — flawless skin, cellulite-free backsides and perpetually perfect nails are part of the job description. Where do they go to gain or maintain their beautiful appearances?

Kate Somerville of the eponymous Kate Somerville Skin Health Experts in Los Angeles says all celebs battle skincare problems. Why? Several spas, including Ole Henriksen Face/Body, New York City’s Cornelia Day Resort and San Francisco’s Spa Radiance offer Endermologie, an expensive and torturous-sounding (but incredibly effective) treatment that involves mechanized suction and massage to help reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Other spas create contoured bodies through a series of skin-perfecting, detoxifying treatments. When they’re not buffing, beating and blasting their faces and bodies into perfection, celebs might seek vacation-inspired spa relief. The spa there features a host of locally inspired, high-end restorative treatments, healing rituals and native remedies. Go ahead — give yourself the star treatment.

Top Ten Celebrity Spas:
• South Beach Spas, Miami Hotels, Florida Luxury Vacation Packages - Hotel Victor, Spa V
• Kate Somerville Skin Health Experts (Los Angeles)
