When you think sexy vacation, the first thing that comes to mind is quite often a beach. Somewhere tropical, with big palm trees, and umbrellas in your fruity drinks. Cabana boys there at your disposal, complete with fans and grapes for you to eat. Ok, maybe that fantasy is a little too much, but you get the point. This list of hotels, however, do not have any of these characteristics. Sexy is more than just a gorgeous beach, it can be a lit up skyline, or a modern take on a old building. Sexy is in the eye of the beholder, and comes in many shapes, sizes, countries, and cities.
The g Hotel- Galway, Ireland: If you want a modern, sleek oasis inside a quaint Irish town, then the g is perfect! This five-star spot is known for its luxury service, with all the amenities you could want. The lush decor is a mix of bright pops of color that make any hip traveler feel right at home. When you drive up to this modern hotel, you feel like you are in another world. The main rooms, like the dining area or the lobby, define sexy, with their trim lines and luxurious fabrics. Then you step into your room and it is like you entered a peaceful space, equally as sexy in a relaxing way. The g Hotel won the #1 Hotel in Ireland by Travel + Leisure, making it a must-stay quirky hotel.
Hotel Joule- Dallas, Texas: A renovated 1920’s Neo-Gothic building is the home to this contemporary hotel in this crazy Texas town. The big draw to this hotel, is not the gorgeous bedroom suites, or the jacuzzi tubs. No, it is the rooftop. Everything’s bigger in Texas, and this rooftop is no different. Way up there you will find the gorgeous pool area, completely secluded from the hustle and bustle of the fourth-largest city in this bigger than life state. What is sexier than a midnight swim, on a rooftop overlooking the sleek Dallas skyline.
Fullerton Bay Hotel- Singapore:This swanky hotel was on Conde Nast Traveler’s Hot List 2011, for its stylish feel. If you are in Singapore, and looking for a modern place to crash, look no further. You will find the sleek skyline of Singapore as well as the views of Marina Bay. Nothing is more sexy than the lights from the tall buildings of the busy city, reflecting over the bay. You can take it all in, in the comfort of your glamourous room at this hot hotel.
The Little Nell- Aspen, Colorado: Being a snow bunny at Aspen’s only ski-in/ ski-out hotel is sure to spice up your vacation. You can enjoy five-star accommodations in this cosmopolitan, but intimate hotel in Colorado’s hottest snow town. Nestled up to a fire, drinking hot cider and relaxing after a long day on the slopes practically spells out a fabulous romantic time. The ambiance is sure to give the highest level of comfort away from home, making your stay that much more of an oasis.
