SNEAK PEEK INSIDE ROSEWOOD LUANG PRABANG
Rosewood has released photos of its highly-anticipated Laos property, Rosewood Luang Prabang. Rosewood’s formidable foray into the world of luxury tents comes courtesy of designer Bill Bensley and continues the brand’s push into Southeast Asia, a salvo that already includes Thailand and will spread to both Cambodia and Vietnam.
“[Rosewood's] six luxury tented villas will be a Rosewood first.” Thuy Tranthi Rieder, group vice president for sales and marketing at Rosewood Hotel Group, told Travelogues in November.
Isolated in dense forest and along a stream leading to the Mekong River, the resort features 23 accommodations: 11 riverside rooms, suites, and villas, as well as six Waterfall Pool Villas and six Hilltop Tents. The 75-square-meter Hilltop Tents include large balconies and feature a private dining area.

3 EASY-TO-DO WILDLIFE ADVENTURES IN OMAN
The resorts are fit for royalty and the deserts are filled with every kind of luxury, but it’s the expansive wildlife that takes most visitors by surprise. Indeed, the seas of Oman are some of the richest in the Middle East, and with an eye to conservation as much as travel, the shores and waters of Oman are teaming with life. For the casual wildlife enthusiast, these simple Omani wildlife pleasures are easy and exciting.
Among the sea turtle sanctuaries of the world, Ras al Jinz is unique. Surrounded by desert and mountain greens, this area is the nesting place of the endangered green turtle – a place where a select few can watch these gigantic sea creatures lay, nest, and escape to the safety of the sea, best experienced at night or in the early morning.

TAKE EVERY ROOM: ASIA’S 5 BEST BUYOUT HOTELS FOR BIRTHDAYS
When celebrating that most recent trip around the sun, some like pampering, some like to travel, some like adventure, and some like to spend that special day with friends and loved ones. Why not do all four? Whether it be glamping with tigers in Ranthambore or sitting down for Kaiseki in Nara, Asia has some creative answers to the birthday blues.
For the birthday band looking for adventure, there are the leopards of Sujan Jawai. Within the untrammeled wilderness of India – where wild leopards, spotted cats and the largest variety of birds in a particular region roam free – nine regal tents made of canvas, stainless steel and leather stand beneath towering granite formations and alongside winding riverbeds.

MORE THAN BOROBUDUR: 5 MUST-DO YOGYAKARTA EXPERIENCES
There are too many people who get to Yogyakarta, drive to Borobudur, set down stakes at Amanjiwo, and call it a holiday. Carved by rivers, punctuated by active volcanoes, and steeped in history and culture, there’s so much more to do in and around Yogyakarta. For the adventurous there are kayaks and 4x4s, and for the mindful there are temples and castles.
Travelers seeking adventure on four wheels can hop in a jeep and take a Jurassic Park-style off-road adventure on the slopes of volcanic Mount Merapi. An alternative to the typical cultural tours, the Lava Tour of Merapi is a thrill-seekers guide to the area. Following a five-minute ride through tamer roads, the lava-laden area begins. Riders will speed along muddy roads, crash through puddles, and drift over the remains of the last Merapi eruption in March 2014.

5 TIPS FOR THAT PERFECT LUXURY WEEKEND IN SAIGON
When Vietnam stepped up onto the world stage as a travel destination in the early 1990s, headline writers the world over couldn’t resist the inevitable nod to Good Morning, Vietnam. Long after morning had broken, they continued to trumpet the same headline.
Today Saigon is a city that ranks as one of Asia’s most dynamic. The most exciting part of a shopping trip is no longer the discovery of a colonial-era Marelli fan or some woebegone dog tags unearthed on an old combat base. It’s scoring that clutch or a pair of designer shoes fashioned by Vietnamese entrepreneurs who’ve taken the world’s temperature, and added a couple degrees of their own.
