The mansion, le manoir, the manor house, no matter what you call this glorious piece of architecture it will always sound grandeur. My recent visit to this luxurious vacation mansion in the Poconos has been overwhelming. It is located in Wilkes Barre, one of the largest cities in the NorthEast region of the Pocono Mountains. What does it feel like to actually live in this mansion? The tall ceilings, exquisite interiors, glorious chandeliers, large windows, and the spacious rooms, everything from the floor to lighting and the wall paper feels just royal and awe inspiring. Experiencing the luxury mansion in the Poconos? This luxury mansion is located on 16,000 square feet of prime real estate in Poconos. The boundaries of the mansion are well-fenced making it truly private and secluded from the outside world where the only people who can disturb you are your friends and family. However, it has…

·Samantha - Travelling King

Hailed as the most expensive city in the Middle East and one of the top 50 expensive cities in the world, Dubai wows its visitors with luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture, and high-end accommodation options year after year. Known for its skyscrapers, in particular, the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, Dubai is a city that was built to impress. A city that boasts business, tourism, real estate and finance, it’s no surprise that Dubai is one of the most modern and progressive emirates out of the seven that make up the United Arab Emirates (UAE). What is surprising, however, is that despite this, profound traditions remain at the heart of the city’s culture. A city full of ambitious futuristic vision, innovation and a go-getting attitude, you can be sure that you will be entertained with the attractions and sights that are on offer here. From an army of robocops and…

Private Pool Villas in Phuket from Budget (less than $100) to Luxury Villas (more than $500)

·1 January, 2022
·Samantha - Travelling King

Phuket is only of my favourite destinations, some people love it and some people hate it but to me, it's like a second home. Recently I did a lot of research on private pool villas in Phuket for our late honeymoon, I was a little surprised at the massive lack of information in regards to cheap pool villas in Phuket. I found that so many articles I read were super misleading, eg: saying you could get a private villa in Phuket for $100 per night but really the private villa was $300 per night! So I thought it would be a great idea to share all my research with you so you don't have to waste hours of your life (haha!). I'll break down the pool villas by price and different areas in Phuket to make it easier for you. We found that there were some surprisingly cheap villas in Phuket and obviously some pretty expensive…

·Samantha - Travelling King

As the home of both Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and The Sound of Music, Salzburg, Austria is an incredible destination for both amateur and experienced travellers. Although Salzburg has contributed a lot to film and music culture worldwide, this magnificent Austrian city has even more to offer. With picturesque views of the Central Eastern Alps, Salzburg provides an opportunity for a scenic, relaxing, and luxurious getaway. With stunning Baroque architecture and an iconic medieval fortress, there’s a ton of culture to explore that will leave you with a rich understanding of the city. Salzburg is a small city with a population of only 150,000, making it a peaceful place to travel to while getting a taste of local life. While often overlooked by travellers in Western Europe, this is definitely a city that warrants a visit. We all deserve a bit of indulgence from time to time, so why not treat…
