We travel the globe reviewing the best 5-star hotels, luxury resorts and luxury villas in the world, personally reviewing each one and handpicking only the finest for our collection.

Our 5-star destination guides, luxury hotel reviews and hotel videos will help you pick the best 5-star hotels and villas to make your bucketlist dreams come true, and our informed concierge team will book the best rooms and suites and suggest how to get the most out of each destination.

It is said that travel broadens the mind, so let Luxury Explorer inspire you with a new perspective of somewhere familiar, or a hidden treasure in a destination currently unknown.

Spin the globe and see where Luxury Explorer takes you, or follow in our footsteps through 5-star hotels in capital cities and luxury resorts in exotic far-flung destinations, using our expert 5-star hotel reviews to inspire you...

Luxury Explorer seeks out 5-star luxury hotel gems in unparalleled settings with a different destination explored each week.

For example, read our Italian 5-star hotel reviews and browse through our stunning Italian villa collection for inspiration before you book you next adventure in Italy.

While our primary purpose is to inspire and delight you with reviews of the best 5-star hotels and luxury villas in the world, we also come across some exceptional special offers and hotel deals.

Subscribers have access to exclusive offers at our featured hotels, but you can also book 1000's of luxury hotel deals worldwide through our affliate network Hotels.com.

Luxury Explorer is the free and easy way to be inspired by beautiful places. Our weekly LE Inspires newsletter and Instagram and Twitter channels will entrance, our reviews will enlighten and our expert concierge team is on hand to remove all the hassle from planning a 5-star hotel experience.

Luxury travel is the ultimate gift for explorers and adventurers, but conventional gift vouchers offer limited choice and inflexible terms.

We will soon be launching a digital gift service to make it easy to send luxury travel gifts in US Dollars, GBP Pounds or Euros, which can be redeemed against bookings at any of our 5-star hotels and luxury villas.
