Luxury Travel Magazine | Issue 67

Who doesn’t want a discount? Well actually, we know from reader surveys that many of you aren’t looking for deals – or more accurately, your destination decisions aren’t motivated by price. But for many others, a really compelling luxury hotel discount will influence your decision to visit a destination. That’s why we’re introducing a new section called Luxe For Less. The editorial team will find really great deals at genuine luxury properties to highlight each issue. This issue we’re doing Australia: so turn to page 22 to see what we’ve found for you. Then, as you browse the magazine, you’ll find other luxury deals included at the end of some of our features. We’ve also included a dedicated section for Luxe For Less deals on our mobile-optimised website (luxurytravelmag.com.au) and, once a month, we send out a newsletter on all the best deals we’ve found that month. So if you’re in the market for a deal, you should sign up by visiting luxurytravelmag. com.au/newsletters. And then there’s our Luxe For Less Twitter feed. Follow us at @LuxeforLessAU.

South Africa has to be one of the best value destinations on the planet, with loads of luxury in the cities and on safari. In fact, a South African safari is one of the most extraordinary and memorable experiences a traveller can have – and Australian travellers who haven’t already been will be astonished at how relatively inexpensive an all-inclusive luxury safari lodge stay can be. This issue we’ve included a special supplement on South Africa. Whether you’re interested in discounts or not, keep it handy for when you’re ruminating over your next destination.
