The Mandarin Oriental Exclusive Homes’ portfolio launched in 2022 in collaboration with holiday property specialist StayOne. The homes have been chosen to appeal to those seeking beachside holidays, authentic cultural experiences, health and wellness, intimate escapes, family-friendly attractions or parties.

Properties new to the collection include the Uluwatu Estate in Bali, which sits on a cliffside above Nyang Nyang beach and sleeps 16 across eight independent suites. Guests have the choice of indoor and outdoor bathing, thanks to the baths set in private enclaves of the gardens. 

Masseria Petrarolo in Monopoli, Puglia, dates back to the 17th century and sleeps 18. The nine-bed restored masseria sits on more than 50 hectares of olive groves and lavender fields and boasts original features including an ancient bell used to warn of incoming pirates. 

The Villa Palmira sits in the hills around Cannes, offering views across Alpes-Maritimes and the Mediterranean. It sleeps 10 and features a large open-plan living area, unique artwork and a pool terrace.  

The properties can only be booked as part of Mandarin Oriental’s exclusive collection, and include concierge services, on-demand private catering, housekeeping and Mandarin Oriental amenities. 

James Riley, group chief executive of Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, said: “Each property has been individually hand-picked for our discerning customers, and to ensure they enjoy the exclusivity of a private home with the reassurance of Mandarin Oriental’s reputation for excellence.”
