Homestays
You might not think a homestay is for you, if privacy is what you want on holiday, but it really is worth spending at least a couple of days of a holiday in a homestay - if not the whole shebang. Because, take it from us, homestays are holiday highlights. Apart from supporting the local economy, you are also embracing the notion that we, as visitors, are guests in a country and that the people who live there are our kind and generous hosts. In Kerala, you can go on a homestay tour, seeing different aspects of this stunning state but staying with different families throughout your stay. In Vietnam you can trek from home to home in the Tonkinese Alps near the Chinese border, with superb home cooked food at the end of the day to reward you for all your walking. Food is also a big element of homestays in Costa Rica, often hosted on farms where beans, corn, and dairy products are a very much part of the culinary experience. They're a great way to improve your Spanish, too.Ecolodges
Ecolodges have inherited this name because they tick various environmental boxes and may even be totally off grid. And yet they are so far from tickbox territory, really, each incorporating unique designs, passions, ideas and cultural influences. They are also nearly always welcoming to families, as the creators of such unique accommodation are forward thinkers, and know that children are the conservationists of tomorrow. They’re not all hardcore hemp though. Stay at our eco-guesthouse in the heart of the Portugal’s Sintra Natural Park, for home from home comfort in one of the country’s most stunning locations. In the rainforest bungalows in Malaysia, you can have a massage on your crisp white sheets while overlooking the Berembun Forest Reserve. And the African style huts in Gambia’s ecolodge have en suite bathrooms and are cocoons of creative cosiness. Ecolodges all have something different. As well as a story to tell.Tipis & yurts
