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.

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas
