Small Luxury Hotels of the World has introduced an Exclusive Use service to recognize the demand for extended families or groups of friends looking to travel together and maintain complete control over their environment.
More than 370 of SLH’s collection of 520 hotels worldwide are now available for private hire vacations. Participating hotels cover the full spectrum of the SLH collection from country houses and city retreats to tropical island hideaways and secluded villas. These hotels offer anywhere from 4 to 200 rooms and can cater for a low-key family mini-break or a special celebration.
To assist guests in finding the best option for their requirements, hotels have been split into three collections – Homes-from-home, Intimate Locations and Private Destinations.
Homes-from-home – guests can travel within their comfort zone with a stay at one of over 70 intimate properties with up to 20 rooms to enjoy with friends and family. Examples include:
