The Stay
Hotels, resorts, villas & private homes
The Stay is my selection of hotels, resorts, villas and private homes. Every property has its own profile, whether or not it has a current offer: if it does, it appears here and links to The Edit; when it expires, it disappears on its own and the profile stays.
Yachts and charters have their own space in Yachts & charters.
Hotels & resorts
Mansions, resorts and historic hotels, each property on its own.
Playa Xcalacoco, Riviera Maya, Mexico
Viceroy Riviera Maya
Viceroy Hotels & Resorts · Villas with private pools
Proposals on request
These are not confirmed promotions: they are proposals I can quote. Rates, availability and conditions are confirmed before I present them.
The turn of the year: I am checking availability for Christmas and New Year at The Loren at Pink Beach, Bawah Reserve, Islas Secas and Hotel Christopher. Write to me and I will confirm space before quoting.
