Preferred Hotels & Resorts has just launched its 2025 Live Like a Legend Experience Collection, and it’s basically a passport to living out your wildest “I’ll just take the yacht, thanks” fantasies.

Six destinations. Six utterly ridiculous, pinch-me-is-this-real experiences. All guaranteed to make your Instagram followers simultaneously love and hate you.

A hotel chain that represents more than 650 independent hotels, resorts, and residences, across 85 countries, the company’s corporate headquarters is in Newport Beach, California – but the experiences it offers are global and unique.

Cheers to Phuket

At Andara Resort & Villas in Thailand, you can choose between:

Throwing the mother of all parties at a private estate for 14 friends, complete with yacht cruise, elephant sanctuary visit, and Thai BBQ with live entertainment.

Or, keep it cute and cosy with your beloved in a pool villa where the turndown service comes with nightly Cristal. (Yes, champagne in bed. Every night. Good luck ever leaving.)

From $25,000 (for two) or $70,000 (for 14). The group option sounds like the world’s bougiest hens weekend.

The interiors are designed entirely by Giorgio Armani, in line with his taste and style, reflecting his concept of comfort and hospitality.

Armani, darling

Armani Hotel Milano is offering a three-night stay during Milan Fashion Week, front row seats at the Armani show, and a private fitting where they’ll literally sew couture onto your body. You’ll also get spa treatments, dinner in your suite, and a cocktail at the Armani bar.

Price tag? A casual €100,000. But you’ll walk away with two custom Armani outfits and the permanent ability to drop, “Oh, this? Just something Giorgio whipped up for me.”

Branson’s Beach Estate

Sir Richard’s island. Yours. Four nights. 22 friends. Private chef, helicopter tours, infinity pools, lemurs, flamingos. $285,000. Start a group chat now.

This experience offers a pause from life's everyday demands with nature everywhere you look.

The ranch is made up of over 30,000 secluded acres.

In winter, guests can explore unspoiled snowy landscapes on horseback.

Wyoming wonderland

Fancy a ranch? But not the muddy boots kind, the “30,000 acres of winter chic” kind. The Brush Creek Luxury Ranch Collection offers horsemanship lessons, cowboy hat fittings, private skiing, wine tastings, and snowmobiling through national forests.

Four guests, four nights, $40,000. Giddy-up, in cashmere.

A luxury retreat in the heart of uptown Houston, The Post Oak is a Forbes 5 Star hotel.

Houston Rockets, but boujee

The Post Oak Hotel has centre court seats, jerseys with your name on them, and after the game, a suite with its own basketball court.

Plus helicopters, wine dinners, and skyline views. From $70,000 for four and if you don’t play HORSE at 3am in your pyjamas, you’ve missed the point.

A New Orleans hotel in the heart of downtown New Orleans, Louisiana.

Mardi Gras like a queen

Forget beads. The Windsor Court in New Orleans has you riding in the Orpheus parade, swanning into the most exclusive tables in town, private museum tours, after-hours art jaunts, and live jazz at Preservation Hall. Five nights for four people, $95,000. Basically, you’ll never be able to do Mardi Gras any other way again.

So there you have it, six ways to “Live Like a Legend.” Book before December 1, 2025 because if you miss out, you’ll be stuck living like the rest of us mere mortals (and where’s the fun in that?).
