Perfectly Private

As a new season arrives, many of us are longing to explore new places: snow-covered mountaintops, tropical jungles, sun-warmed beaches or bustling cities. And whatever destination or timetable you may have in mind, opting for Four Seasons Private Retreats offers the chance to focus more fully on savouring your experience and your time with family or friends. Our curiosity about the world beyond our doorstep may call each of us to travel in different ways and at different times, but whether you’re packing now, planning for a bit later or just pondering the possibilities for an epic future journey, Four Seasons can tailor a private getaway just for you.

Urban staycation or resort holiday. Costa Rica or Kyoto, Bali or Bora Bora, or as close to home as you like. One bedroom or seven. As families and friends look for inspiring and easy-to-book opportunities to get away or reunite, Four Seasons villas and residences welcome guests to settle into the perfect privacy of a vacation home brought to life by legendary service. Before and during your stay, your on-site team will handle all the details; you can opt to have them stock your kitchen with your favourite foods and arrange everything exactly as you like. You’re free to explore the property and destination or have tastes of the place brought directly to you.

From sunset cocktail parties to chef-prepared dinners and spacious indoor and outdoor living areas, the Four Seasons Private Retreats collection offers all the privacy and comforts of home you need to reconnect with family and loved ones. Enjoy total relaxation at Villa Rose-Pierre in Saint-Jean Cap Ferrat: The private villa, tucked away in the pines and overlooking the Mediterranean, comes with a full staff to help you make the most of your stay. You and your guests can spend the day lounging by the villa’s private pool, sunbathing in the garden or playing a round of tennis on the private court. Then end the day with aperitifs on the rooftop terrace, toasting the time you spent together.

Seeking the ultimate in privacy? Head to Chalet Alice, tucked away on the slopes of Megève. Spend cosy winter evenings reminiscing as you bask in the glow of a warm fire, or sit down to an authentic alpine meal prepared by a world-class Four Seasons chef in your private kitchen. Your dedicated team is on hand to make sure things run smoothly, from serving breakfast in the morning to custom boot fittings and arranging outdoor adventures like sledding and ice skating. In warmer months, Megève’s lush mountain landscape is a playground for outdoor adventure – tee off on one of the world’s oldest and best alpine golf courses, enjoy views of majestic Mont Blanc from your mountain bike, or spend the day exploring the quaint mountain village. Afterwards, head to the nearby Four Seasons Hotel Megève for dinner at La Dame de Pic – Le 1920, the Hotel’s newest culinary experience. Dine on traditional French dishes prepared by renowned Michelin-starred Chef Anne-Sophie Pic as you celebrate the lasting traditions you’ve created.

Your residence is the ideal starting point to explore one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities. Set out from Ten Trinity Square – a landmark address in the heart of London – to experience the city’s historic past and its exciting future. Explore Tower Bridge and the Tower of London – including an exclusive tour of the Crown Jewels – sample flavours from all over the world at Borough Market, one of the oldest food markets in London, and check out the buzzy South Bank, home to London’s best arts and culture venue: You’re perfectly positioned to experience the best the city has to offer. Afterwards, return home to sip afternoon tea under the beautiful domed ceiling of the Hotel’s Rotunda Bar or savour a Michelin-starred meal in your private dining room. Other cities to explore include Houston and Hangzhou.

Picture yourself and your family relaxing après-ski by the stone fireplace in your spacious mountain-view retreat in Vail. After a day spent outdoors in the fresh air and natural beauty, the kids sip hot cocoa while the adults warm up with a mixologist-led discovery of rare whiskeys from the Resort’s Private Barrel program. Tomorrow you can sample an adventure that captures your curiosity, perhaps snowshoeing or snowmobiling across backcountry terrain. With personal ski services and a dedicated Concierge, you’ll have time to see and do as much (or as little) as you like. Other options include private residences in Jackson Hole and Whistler.

If your thoughts drift instead to an oceanside sanctuary, imagine an escape to Four Seasons Hotel and Residences at The Surf Club, comfortably secluded yet only minutes from South Beach and a half hour from downtown Miami. Embrace indoor-outdoor living and unwind with your loved ones amid the calming blue and green coastal tones of interiors by sought-after designer Joseph Dirand. Relax with a spa treatment on your expansive balcony or with floor-to-ceiling windows bathing you in warm light and ocean views. To explore land- and seascapes beyond the Hotel, sail off on a private yacht excursion. Prefer a West Coast retreat? Soak up a SoCal feel in the coastal community of Carlsbad, a half hour from San Diego, at Four Seasons Residence Club Aviara.
