Luxury can mean resorts, day spas, bath treatments, vintage wines, gourmet foods and fine art museums. It's about a sense of place - bringing to mind tropical islands like Maui and the Bahamas, as well as Manhattan, Santa Barbara, Paris, and Florence. The luxury-seeking traveler can explore exclusive hotels and hidden bed and breakfast inns; upscale salons and trendy restaurants; or even set sail on a cruise for Hawaii.

But luxury is more a state of mind than how much you spend. With proper planning, anyone can afford a stylish vacation. Here are priceless insights and tips for making every travel outing memorable!
