I’ve had a mocktail served in a crystal coupe at 3,000 feet above the Maldives. I’ve soaked in a cedar tub while snow fell on the Alps. I’ve paid $1,200 a night for a room with no minibar.
Luxury isn’t the thread count. It’s the silence when no one offers you a drink.
Look for:
- Spas where “detox” means infrared, not juice cleanses.
- Private chefs who plate cacao ceremonies, not champagne pairings.
- Helicopter transfers to places where the only buzz is altitude.
Book the villa that forgets alcohol exists. The rest is just a view.
Wander Sober
Travel clear. Live wide awake.
