2. Idyllic Retreats Are Exclusive

A big part of the appeal of staying at an Idyllic Retreat is the feeling of intimacy and exclusivity. These accommodations are quiet and exclusive. Many of them only cater to a few dozen guests, which guarantees a relaxed environment where you can enjoy the pristine surroundings and amenities without feeling crowded.

For instance, on Savasi Island Resort, you’re one of only 10 parties of guests staying at one of 13 beach villas on the 52-acre island. Furthermore, many of our Idyllic Retreats are located on private islands and feature overwater bungalows, arguably the most exclusive and intimate style of accommodation in the world. If you’re looking to escape to an exotic beach destination, escape to an Idyllic Retreat.

3. Idyllic Retreats Offer Unique Accommodation Experiences

If you’re looking for a unique place to stay at, Idyllic Retreats are sure to excite you. Many Idyllic Retreats offer unique accommodation experiences—and we’re not just talking about overwater bungalows, which are pretty special in their own right. No, we’re talking about accommodation experiences that you can only find in one place in the world: at an Idyllic Retreat.

For instance, at the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, you can stay in a luxury two-level residence known as The Muraka. This remarkable accommodation not only offers two bedrooms, an ocean-facing bathroom, an outdoor deck with an infinity pool, and a 24-hour butler, but the master bedroom is located 16 feet below sea level! You can sleep underwater in your own private aquarium! 

In Thailand, you can stay at The Lighthouse room of The Racha, which is a five-storey tower that stands tall over the low-rise villas on the rest of the property. Enjoy privacy, outdoor showers, large terraces and balconies, and two massive master bedrooms. At Kaya Mawa in Malawi, you can stay at one of the 10 most romantic places in the world, according to Condé Nast. It’s smack dab in the middle of Lake Malawi, so talk about unique!

Goway’s Idyllic Retreats collection offers travelers the opportunity to enjoy intimacy, exclusivity, and unique accommodation experiences in exotic beach destinations worldwide. Get in touch with a Goway Destination Specialist to learn more and to book your own Idyllic Retreat today.

Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.

Harpreet Litt provided us with a rich experience for our week. She offered good choices for local tour companies. We had a very good guide in Osaka. She is an Osaka resident with good English skills. She took extra pains to include opportunities we requested Osaka was a beautiful city at night. My photos of restaurants and street food were colorful and fun. Food was good too.Noel Chrisman

1186952 trip reference - Croatia and Montenegro. Dear Goway Travel Team! I wanted to reach out and share some well-deserved praise for Jacqueline, who has assisted me closely with several of my travels. She recently curated a trip for me to Croatia, the beautiful islands, and Montenegro, and it was an absolute home run. Jacqueline has an incredible ability to listen to her clients' needs and translate them perfectly into a flawless itinerary. Her articulation, guideline execution, and professionalism are unmatched. What sets her apart is her forward-thinking approach—she always knows the exact hotspots and trends, ensuring the pace of the trip matches my speed perfectly. Everything transitioned seamlessly thanks to her attention to detail and care. She is a massive asset to your organization, and her consideration makes every vacation stress-free. I will absolutely continue to use her for all my future travels. Kindest regards, Vince Sacco Vince Sacco

I have worked with Goway several times in the past two years and every single trip has been unforgettable. Specifically, our travel advisor, Maria, has helped us book phenomenal trips to Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and most recently, Iceland. Maria is so wonderful and easy to talk to, but what really stands out is her ability to get to know her clients so she can plan trips that perfectly align with our interests and desires. I cannot recommend her strongly enough! Her expertise, hard-work, and dedication towards each trip has given myself, my family, and friends memories to last a lifetime! Kayla Covello

I have been booking with GoWay for more than 2 years and feel so fortunate to have the best Travel Advisor, Maria Spitman, making our vacations unforgettable. I can’t say enough about Maria… she is personable, efficient, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable about her specialty destinations. We have booked many trips with her, including Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Iceland, and our most recent trip in Greece. Maria has not only curated nuanced itineraries, but has done so combining her vast knowledge of each region with our interests and needs being met perfectly. With that, it is evident that Maria learns about her clients to create vacation packages that far exceed expectations. I won’t book with anyone else! GoWay has a gem that is irreplaceable! I highly recommend seeking Maria out for all your destination needs. Darleen
