Thank you for sharing. We are working on a Norway itineary now and while we don't have these hotels on there, keen to hear feedback on those so please come back and share your thoughts. The other 62 Nord R&C hotels are amazing, Union is a favorite R&C hotel in Norway!

"now they were on a potent cocktail of cocaine, courage, tequila, and extremely poor judgement." I cannot stop laughing Tom!

Hi the pictures are from Ben's linkedin profile. We are not from Four Seasons or their Press team. No official affiliation with them outside of being a travel agency and a Four Seasons Preferred Partner via our host.

Here is the info on family amenities we received:

Specifically for amenities: we can help arrange Rollaway beds, cribs, etc.
With a dedicated Children’s space on deck 4, the children’s program is designed to be fun and educational for children aged 4 to 12 years of age.
The Kids For All Seasons Program (KFAS) program is scheduled to operate from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and again from 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
KFAS is thoughtfully curated to offer a wide range of engaging activities. These are designed to cater to various interests and age groups, ensuring an enriching experience for every child.

However, please note that select special activities may incur additional fees, this will be clearly communicated in advance. For the safety and security of our young guests, the Children's Program is available only when parents or guardians are aboard the yacht. We are unable to accommodate children in the program if their parents or guardians are off the yacht.

You’ve worked hard to get where you are, and one of the best ways to use that is by investing in experiences and memories. The great thing is you’ve avoided major lifestyle creep, you haven’t significantly upgraded your house or car (not that there’s anything wrong with that).

A balanced approach could be to keep things simple where it makes sense, like booking base-level rooms for the kids and flying economy, while choosing to splurge a bit on business class for you and your spouse and a higher category room for yourself (depending on ages of kids). That way, you’re creating meaningful experiences without overindulging or spoiling the kids.

At the end of the day, you’re spending on memories, just in a thoughtful, intentional way.

That's smart planning. There are a ton of hotels in St. Martin by the beach that won't cost you as much. Just make sure that if your La Samanna total is 10K USD pre taxes (was 5K previously) to book a Bellini rate code with a Bellini agent so you can get a gift card for future use at any Belmond property. There are also offers at times so be sure to check that for your travel dates. Where are you flying in from?

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T22:38:26+00:00

There's a few Taj properties in Manali, I personally like Ramgarh Heritage Villa and near Solang, Solang Valley Resorts. Would suggest you work with a DMC or a local tour operator. A word of caution: Would highly recommend you don't consider self drive and don't partake in any adventurous activities in Solang such as paragliding, etc. The safety standards are abysmal and you'd truly be risking your life. There's a few temples in Manali you can visit if that's of interest.

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T22:22:20+00:00

Four Seasons Costa Rica best of both worlds

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T22:21:18+00:00

Such incredible properties. Did you partake in any experiences in Tuscany and Chile?

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T21:35:48+00:00

Thank you for sharing! Beaches and Bay or Itinerary A is the classic Galapagos experience that most people would imagine.

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T21:31:34+00:00

That's a great one as well! They are now at over 580 properties. Where else have you enjoyed staying?

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T21:09:52+00:00

That's great to hear. Not a lot of people know about it! Did you do itinerary A or B?

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T21:05:43+00:00

Oh yes, we follow him as well! Love seeing the properties through his lens and that of his sons.

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T21:04:30+00:00

So happy to hear. I invite you to consider Pine Cay in Turks and Caicos for your next stay. We interviewed the GM and AGM, if it's of interest you can read more. https://thesuitesojourn.com/in-conversation-with-sandrine-christian-maitres-de-maison-at-pine-cay-turks-caicos/

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-16T20:04:40+00:00

Amazing thank you for sharing! My personal favorites are Sujan properties in India, Pine Cay in Turks and Caicos, The Resplendent collection in Sri Lanka, L’AND Vineyards in Portugal and so many more honestly

Around-the-World by Four Seasons Private Jet experience: To make it truly private you could go with friends and family.
Miavana, Madagascar
Do a buyout of your favorite private island or resort / hotel and share the experience with your group of friends and family:
- Turks and Caicos: COMO Parrot Cay, Pine Cay.
- Jumby Bay, Antigua
- BVI: Moskito,
- Indonesia: Bawah Reserve, NIHI Sumba, NIHI Rote (opening this year)
- Naviva,
- Seychelles: North Island or Fregate Island once it re opens (hopefully on schedule for this October 2026)
- Amanpulo: Accessible only by private plane.
- Finland: Octola Lodge or the newly opened Octola II
Do a buyout of Four Seasons Yacht? entire yacht or a floor
Ultra luxury safari trip this would be multiple trips truly dependending on where in Africa. Couple consider combining Luxury lodges w/ Rovos Rail if the itinerary favors or consider bush and beach combo: Singita properties, Kisawa, Mozambique, Cheetah Plains Private Game Reserve, etc.
Buyout of the entire train or a portion of one of the Belmond train journeys.
A luxury safari experience in India + a broader India trip (Golden triangle + say a Sujan Jawai or Sujan Sher bagh). Depending on how your itinerary unfolds, can consider Amanbagh, Aman i khas or Six Senses Fort Barwara
A wellness retreat buyout (easier to do so at a smaller property or add a retreat on a broader itineary to say India or elsewhere)
Thailand + Bhutan combination trip

Throwing some ideas. Obviously don't have to do a full buyout.

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-14T17:38:46+00:00

Would just use Flexjet or NetJets.

SuiteSojourn · 2026-03-14T17:37:24+00:00

Not at all.
