This fully equipped, classically designed apartment has everything you need—access to the beach, pool and gym, along with restaurants and bars nearby.

THE BEACH LIFE – Escape the city and visit Malay, The Philippines. And while you visit this area and indulge in diving, swimming and kite surfing, stay in this house on a small hill. This quaint home comes with a spacious balcony that lets you take in the breathtaking views.

SMALL TOWN WONDERS – For a cultural getaway, visit Siem Reap, a resort town in Cambodia. While you view the country’s past, stay at a luxury penthouse by the banks of the Siem Reap River.
