How to Recreate Luxury Resort Styles in Your Home

When you stay at a luxury resort, some things that always stick with you are the sense of comfort, elegance, and ease blending with a good night’s sleep. Sometimes you wonder, what makes the whole experience blissful and wholesome? Was it the design or the top-quality bedding that gets into your nerves?

You might even ask if you can recreate those resort vibes at home? The answer is yes. We make sure you can make a few decor hacks to recreate luxury resort styles in your home and enjoy the lush life. To achieve luxurious vibes, you can start investing in simpler, affordable elements like linen sheets, or go all the way with a new bedding set. Here are some tips and tricks you need to know.

First Thing First, The Bed

The one thing that always stands out in a luxury resort — whether you are staying in a beach resort, wellness retreat, or 5-star city hotel — is the bed. The luxurious, layered beds are the highlight.

To recreate the comfort, you may need to invest in high-quality bedding, including top-notch mattresses, fluffy pillows, and comforter or doona. You can also start to learn to style a bed in a five-star hotel fashion. Try triple sheeting by layering a thin blanket or comforter between two linen sheets. This cost-effective technique will make your bed feel clean and crisp.

To make this trick work out, you need to start seeking luxury linens that look elegantly stunning as in a real resort room. Remember to launder and press your sheets with refreshing spray regularly. If you feel fancy, you can also invest in quilts that suit your style. You can choose a minimalistic pattern to complement the cozy vibes or a sophisticated one to add a little avant-garde touch.

The Colors of Peace

The combination of colors in an elegant resort helps to create a peaceful state of mind that leads to a good night’s sleep. Normally, neutral color palettes accentuate serenity that will induce a calm mind. Some colors that might bring out such effects are pale blues, beiges, or whites with a creamy texture.

You need to remember that colors go beyond the wall paint. Your furniture, linen sheets for the bedding, upholstery should also complement the neutral palettes to create a peaceful space where you can have your little escapade. Avoid overly contrasting color combinations and opt for soft shades of white or earthy colors depending on the chosen color palettes.

Relaxing Scents

Another thing that you may not immediately notice, but always feel upon entering a high-end resort room, is the scent. Different kinds of resorts will have different aromas; but, they are uniformly fabulous and calm-inducing. After all, the fragrance is an effective way to transport you into another realm without having to leave the space. Nautical fragrance might remind you of a beach resort, floral fragrance reminds you of an elegant, classic hotel, while earthy fragrance takes you back to a wellness retreat.

To emulate the scent of a luxury resort, you can use aromatic candles, diffusers, or fragrance sprays. Candles are effective because they emanate the aroma for as long as they are lit. Pick a scent that suits your concept. Ocean Mist scent is fabulous in emulating tropical, beach settings. If you are seeking a more exotic, Mediterranean vibe, try patchouli-related scents. Sandalwood and lavender might bring out different vibes, but they can be great choices for relaxation.

Attention to Detail

The credo of a five-star resort is always the attention to detail. Little details that have been carefully and creatively planned out are what make the luxury feels stand out. Luxury resorts often make life easier for you even when you are on your own. The goal is to make guests feel lucky that even the tiniest details, like a USB power port or a water carafe, are available within their reach. 

To achieve the feat, you can also start mapping out the flow and the ease of access while you are in the room. Find out what you usually need most while you are in bed and start preparing them to create the sense that you do not need to leave your bed for more than two steps to get them. For example, you can leave a glass and water jug on the bedside table. The key to getting the same effect is the anticipation of what you might need.

Fresh Flowers or House Plants

One of the easiest elements that can make your room fancier is fresh flowers. The rule of thumb for this one is to keep it simple. You do not need a full, extravagant bouquet to add to your room. Choose one type of fresh flower that might be highly available at some points. By doing so, you can keep the look fresh all the time.

Pick flowers with a gentle aroma, like garden roses. You can use a clear vase or an ornamental one according to your preference. Do not forget to add water and a tiny drop of bleach to the water to keep bacteria away. Make sure you change these arrangements every now and then.

If you are looking for a hypoallergenic alternative for it, you can opt for greenish house plants. Avoid heavy pollen flowers or plants if you might be prone to allergies. Marginata and some types of house palms, such as Lady Palm or Bamboo Palm, will be great to create a lush and luscious atmosphere in your room.

To Sum Up

With a few decor hacks, you can recreate luxury resort styles in your home. You can opt for an all-the-way upgrade to instantly elevate your house, especially your bedroom. Otherwise, you can start by partially redecorating some areas and see which tweak suits your preference.
