Luxury Villas – Social Distancing In Style

by | May 9, 2020

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The new norms for domestic travel expected to be implemented gradually, globally, over the coming weeks and months consist of the same few rules that we have all grown accustomed to over the last couple of months: practice social distancing, avoid crowds, cover the mouth & nose with a mask and wash hands frequently.

Our need for travel is unquenchable. The build-up and stifling of emotions while in lockdown needs to be let out. Complying with the health and safety norms is also paramount, so it’s crucial to find the balance between proper distancing and leisure. Small adjustments sound too little of a compromise, especially if it paves the way for the new norm. The ideal way to keep within limits while having a well-deserved break is by safely checking into a villa or a lodge.

It’s the revival of the old thrills: bringing the family along a grand stay with the promise of fresh new surroundings: lush, green vistas, bright blue private pools, or the sprawling, golden desert lodges. The change of atmosphere brings comfort; and inhaling fresh ambiance will revive one’s spirit.

Here are five themes to enjoy a holiday while following the guidelines of social distancing.
