Splurge on Luxury Travel Today!

Too many of us stick to carefully budgeted vacations, cringing at the thought of government taxes and service charge on top of that single cocktail at the bar in the evening. But we owe it to ourselves to splurge on a proper, no-holds-barred luxury vacation. Why, do you say? Well here are the top 10 reasons to splurge on luxury travel.

1

Unimaginable Comforts

Unimaginable Comforts

When you select luxury travel, sometimes it includes things that you might not have dreamed about in your wildest dreams but it's still offered to you. I bet you never knew you CRAVED a full body massage on the beach until it was offered to you by the Spa team. Luxury is also especially found in the little things that you would not notice had they not been there but make your experience just that much better.

Luxury Does Not Have To Cost A Lot

Luxury Does Not Have To Cost A Lot

Contrary to popular belief, luxury travel does not always come with a hefty price tag to set you back several generations. Nowadays, even some of the most stylish and boutique properties have special offers or credit card discounts. Keep an eye out for such deals by following selected properties and travel companies on social media and signing up for newsletters. In Sri Lanka, many hotels have amazing deals during off-season, especially most Pasikuda Resorts.

You Only Live Once

You Only Live Once

Can you imagine growing old without experiencing some of the finest things in life? Provided you have some money tucked away for emergencies, spending on travel is always recommended. Once in a while, splurging on luxury travel is even more highly recommended (by yours truly, at least). Whatever the meaning of life is, being happy and content is definitely really important.

Do It For The 'Gram

Do It For The 'Gram

WARNING: This is the probably really bad advice so don't live by this one please
At least do it for the bragging rights! Show off those haters that you are living your best life and that no one hold you back or bring you down. Nothing says "In Your Face" more than colourful Instagram stories and quirky posts.

Pamper Yourself

Pamper Yourself

Okay so all jokes aside, don't do it for others to see. Do it because you deserve to put yourself first and make yourself happy. You don't even need to take anybody with you on such a holiday - go by yourself to rediscover parts of yourself that might have got lost in the hustle and bustle of "Life As An Adult". Spend some of your hard-earned money on the most important person in your life - YOU.

New Experiences

New Experiences

If you opt for luxury travel, you can get to have some of the best experiences of your life. Luxury travel usually includes some of the best locations in the world, finest hotels and carefully-curated unique activities that aren't usually accessible by paying less. It's worthwhile paying the asking price for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Value for Money is Possible

Value for Money is Possible

Further to Reason #2, the high costs don't always have to be for intangible things or brand names. Sometimes things are expensive because they are actually worth that much. Paying a high price for a proper all-inclusive experience means that you will be able to get your absolute money's worth. Food, drinks, spa treatments, on-site activities - what more do you really need out of your luxury travel experience?

Be Spontaneous

Be Spontaneous

Life is usually spent planning trips in between work, budgeting and finding best options. Be spontaneous and take the first plunge! Money can be earned back (always provided you have an emergency stash) so take the dive and treat yourself to a luxurious holiday of a lifetime.
