London, Tahiti & More Long Weekend Getaway Deals

If one goes to Tahiti—just a seven-hour plane trip from L.A.—and doesn’t stay at an over-water bungalow, does the trip count? (Spoiler alert: no.) Make sure you don’t short-change yourself and stay at the Tahiti Ia Ora Beach Resort. It’s managed by Sofitel, so you know you’re getting quality, but it’s also situated on the sister island of Moorea away from the hustle and bustle of Bora Bora. With panoramic sea views, well-appointed guest rooms and a heaping dose of peace and quiet, you’ll be forgiven for not wanting to leave.

Also a five-ish hour-long flight from New York, Iceland may not be the warmest of locations, but it’s certainly unforgettable. A stay at the 13-room 360 Boutique Hotel and Spa means having a luxury experience in the South of Iceland, with a 360-degree view of the mountains and volcanoes. Of course, your room is stunning, and the small size of the hotel means you get personalized service. But even better is having access to the on-site spa which includes a pool with warm, mineral-rich geothermal water, known to be healing and therapeutic.

And you can sun yourself on the beach, or next to the pool—dealer’s choice!

Miguel Island, with just 86 rooms and a commitment to sustainability and preserving its natural surroundings.
