WHERE TO STAY
St Joseph’s
Small but perfectly formed, Dubrovnik’s size is part of its charm — the Old Town is encircled by more than a mile of walls, while inside, the glistening stone streets and grand buildings look much as they have done for hundreds of years. But what makes it alluring for visitors, is exactly why the city’s hotel scene is somewhat static — there simply isn’t the space for new openings. That’s why Dubrovnik renovates and extends, keeping what’s already there in tip-top condition, with the majority of new hotels often outside the city walls or close to Dubrovnik airport.

MALDIVES
An archipelago of 1,192 coral islands and 26 turquoise atolls looping across the Indian Ocean, the Maldives is home to resorts that cater to every imaginable taste, from barefoot escapes to designer digs. The most convenient to reach are located in the South Malé, North Malé and Vaavu atolls, within speedboat distance of Velana International Airport, while more remote atolls are accessible by seaplane or domestic flight. With easy access to the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Baa and Raa are especially popular. Those around the Equator, including Gaafu Alifu, offer a splendid sense of isolation, abundant marine life and brilliantly starry night skies.
