Mandarin Oriental Launches Exclusive Homes

(14 Mar 2022, 12:03 +07)  Mandarin Oriental has, in partnership with StayOne, launched a branded collection of luxurious private villas and mansions, handpicked by the group for their outstanding quality and sought-after locations.

The initial selection of Mandarin Oriental Exclusive Homes are located in popular destinations throughout Europe and range from a Georgian-style manor house in a 600-acre private estate in the heart of the Cotswolds, to idyllic beach-front villas in the South of France and the Balearics, including a stunning villa on its own private island.

Each home has been selected to suit different customer needs with the best locations chosen for secluded intimacy, family-friendly attractions, and party scenarios, for example.

At each home a dedicated personal concierge service is available 24/7, from initial booking right through to departure, the dedicated concierge is on-hand to assist with pre-arrival requests and to arrange local experiences and transportation.

Daily housekeeping is provided, while an in-house private chef, approved by Mandarin Oriental’s culinary experts, will design bespoke menus based on guest preferences and local seasonal produce.

“These handpicked luxurious homes fit naturally into our portfolio and their locations provide opportunities for our guests to combine a hotel visit with a villa stay and explore more of the destination in different ways – but all with the assurance of the Mandarin Oriental reputation. We look forward to working with StayOne to identify many more perfect homes to include in the collection,” said James Riley, Group Chief Executive of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group.
