In fact, some of the world’s most luxurious destinations have been offering vacation packages catered to remote workers to keep up with the trend. If you’re lucky enough to work anywhere with the internet, you should consider going for a workation. And if you need ideas on where to go, here are some of the most incredible places to stay on long luxury workation.

Luxury Workation

Barbados 

Famous for its fine white sand beaches and warm turquoise waters, Barbados is a stunning Caribbean Island that’s recently become a popular destination for a workation. But there’s more to this island than meets the eye. It exudes a laidback lifestyle, allowing you to focus more on work while enjoying some luxuries in between, such as excellent fine dining and a vibrant shopping scene.

For the ultimate luxury workation experience, stay in a fully staffed villa with Hammerton Barbados, the ideal place to unwind after work. These upscale accommodations are equipped with modern amenities and offer the added services of a hardworking and professional housekeeper who will make your stay even more comfortable. You can also request a cook or chef who will prepare delicious meals per day according to your diet preferences. Have breakfast by the pool overlooking the stunning ocean views and dine under the stars in your private garden. 

You’ll have plenty of options if you want to relax after work. Lounge at Bathsheba Beach and soak up the stunning views, get pampered at a luxury spa, dine at the island’s world-class restaurants, or shop at the upscale malls in Bridgetown.

Bali

Bali has long been a popular destination for digital nomads, thanks to its relaxing way of life and numerous luxury villas offering long-term stays. In Bali, you’ll work on your deadlines with the stunning ocean views in front of you and spend your work breaks sunbathing at the beach, hiking through rice terraces, or visiting temples and bustling markets.

If you want to splurge on your luxurious workation in Bali, stay at five-star resorts like St. Regis. Book one of their exquisite villas with private pools facing the pristine beach of Nusa Dua. Some villas will give you direct access to the beach, allowing you to enjoy a quick dip in the sea between work. If you want to spend your workation surrounded by the serene rice fields of Bali, stay at Blue Karma Dijiwa, a cosy resort situated in the town of Ubud. You will sleep in an open-spaced villa with luxurious amenities overlooking the stunning views of rice fields.

One of the best things about choosing Bali for your workation is that there are numerous coworking spaces on the island where you can take up work if you want a change of scenery. The Dojo Coworking Space is a two-story building offering state-of-the-art amenities, including cosy conference rooms, soundproof booths, and more.

Switzerland

Boasting incredible alpine scenery, charming villages, rolling hills carpeted with spring flowers, and lively cities steeped in history, Switzerland is the perfect destination for a luxury workation. When you’re not working at your desk, you’ll find plenty of amazing things to enjoy, from indulging in delectable Swiss chocolates and cheeses to engaging in fun outdoor activities.

A luxury workation in Switzerland means staying at gorgeous places with lots to see and do. A great option is to stay in your own beautiful Chalet in Saas Fee surrounded by dramatic scenery and stunning landscapes. The popular skiing resort is home to luxurious log cabins, highend homes and everything you could wish for from the perfect workation, or perhaps a more permanent location.  

If you want to base yourself in Zurich, stay at the Dolder Grand Hotel, housed in a castle-like building equipped with state-of-the-art spa facilities. Stay at one of the 175 rooms and suites decorated with stylish furnishings. After a day of working, relax in the spa, and take advantage of its treatment rooms, an aqua zone overlooking the outdoor views, and a medical wellness centre.

Portugal

Sitting at the western edge of Europe, Portugal is a fascinating country with vibrant cities, delectable food and wine, breathtaking landscapes, and picturesque villages steeped in history. You will have plenty of luxurious things to enjoy while on a workation holiday in Portugal – from soaking up the sun on the pristine beaches of the Algarve to tasting the finest wine in the vineyards of the Douro Valley.

If you want to base yourself in Lisbon, stay at My Story Hotels, a fleet of five charming hotels perched between Bairro Alto and the Alfama districts. Housed in a historic building featuring unique designs complementing the vibrant surroundings of the neighbourhood, My Story Hotels are an ideal base for working while on holiday in Lisbon. 

Since My Story Hotels are in the middle of the city, you will not be far from Lisbon’s top attractions. There are coworking spaces and cafes nearby should you want to change your workspace scenery. 

Ibiza

Ibiza has a reputation for being one of the world’s best party destinations. The island also boasts idyllic sun-soaked beaches, while its interiors have beautiful landscapes and vistas, perfect for hiking. One of the best things about choosing Ibiza for your workation is there’s no shortage of options for upscale accommodations.

For luxury-seeking workationers, stay at W Ibiza, situated at the palm-fringed beach of Santa Eulalia. The property has more than 160 rooms and suites, equipped with all the modern amenities you need for your workation holiday. You can work at the stylish pool deck or on the rooftop with views overlooking Santa Eulalia Beach. After work, relax in the full-service spa with private treatment rooms. 

During the weekends, hit the legendary nightclubs and beach bars and party with world-famous DJs. But for those who prefer to spend their weekends somewhere quiet, there are secluded coves and quaint villages to explore.
