It’s that time of year. You know, the one where our bones are aching for warmth and a long-overdue escape to see us through to the warmer months. It’s always a fantastic idea to break the year up with an aspirational stay while the cold weather is still lingering.
A dream stay at an IHG resort could very well be the remedy for those early Spring blues. Think about it, days spent relaxing by ocean-side pools, enjoying sweeping views over lush gardens and having nothing to do but decide on an esteemed hotel restaurant to indulge your inner gourmand.
IHG One Rewards offers compelling benefits that could see members escape for less, helping to bring a luxury stay within easy reach.
Without further ado, here are six swoon-worthy IHG resorts in idyllic destinations that will help inspire your dream stay.
InterContinental Hayman Island
This sanctuary of indulgent luxury is a unique shell in the heart of one of Australia’s natural wonders, the Great Barrier Reef. Imagine spending hours lost in the Whitsunday’s vibrant blue hues while soaking up the sun at the hotel’s grand infinity pool.
This is where your senses will dance into an ocean of tranquil rest. Fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Whitsundays at InterContinental Hayman Island. All you have to do is relax, unwind and let the surrounding nature work its healing magic.
InterContinental Hayman Island boasts five distinct restaurants and bars to choose from, as well as destination-inspired private dining experiences that offer the chance to indulge and reconnect with yourself – something we often forget to do at this time of year.
With sheer fabric adorning a king four-poster bed, walk-in marble shower and French doors opening out to a turquoise lagoon vista, the rooms at InterContinental Hayman Island are just as luxe as the resort itself.

InterContinental Fiji Golf Resort & Spa
InterContinental Fiji is nestled between 35 acres of tropical gardens overlooking the stunning Natadola Beach and aquamarine waters of the Pacific Ocean. This resort promises to be your sanctuary of soul-enriching luxury by delivering authentic, kind and gentle Fijian hospitality.
As an adored guest, you’ll be humbled by that quintessential outer island village feel, whilst enjoying a combination of Asian, Eastern and Western treatments in Spa InterContinental. You’ll also get a taste of specialty dining experiences at Navo, where a glass-walled show kitchen provides an insight into one of the best restaurants in Fiji. Then, spend a day on the green with world-class golf architecture and views to live for at Natadola Bay Championship Golf Course.
Paired back, this resort’s location does all the sweet talking. What better way to seek refuge from the cold weather than what has been voted one of the best beaches in the world?
The past couple of years have involved some unexpected twists and turns for most of us, and if you’re anything like me, you’ve got a few holidays banked up by this point. I’m planning to roll those untaken trips into one exquisitely luxe stay – I deserve it and so do you.
If this is your plan, then look no further than InterContinental Fiji, where a private Club Intercontinental One Bedroom Suite – complete with his and hers ensuite, outdoor Cleopatra bath and plunge pool – ooze island indulgence.
Book the stay that will reignite your passion for life. Go on, you deserve it.
InterContinental Le Moana Bora Bora
This is my ultimate bucket list stay. If you love the ocean as much as you love romance, then this is the bespoke trip that promises to have you loved up and walking on water.
A stay at InterContinental Le Moana Bora Bora is a honeymoon phase in itself – this is where love comes to thrive. French Polynesia is abundant with island gems, and Le Moana’s overwater bungalows are no exception.
The ocean acts as a mirror and there’s no greater intimacy to be found than in its reflection. InterContinental Le Moana is romance personified. Awe-inspiring world class dive sights await below, promising to envelop you with some serious ‘pinch me’ feelings. Above water, warm staff will serve you a romantic breakfast from a canoe on your bungalow’s private pontoon each blissful morning.
Lovebirds who manage to tear themselves away from their bungalow will savour drool-worthy French-inspired culinary experiences Noa Noa restaurant, Tahitian dance at Vini Vini bar and restaurant, and breathtaking views from a hike up neighbouring Mount Otemanu – the proposal spot of all proposal spots in my opinion.
If like me, you’re an IHG One Rewards member with this specific redemption goal in mind, buying up to 150,000 IHG One Rewards points through one of IHG’s points promotions could make sense here.
For now, I’m focusing on maximising my points-earning potential with IHG One Rewards with this other-worldly stay in mind.
Le Moana’s Romance Package promises the most loved-up escape in beautiful Bora Bora. Take the first step to falling in love all over again.
InterContinental Resort Tahiti
What do views of dramatic volcanic peaks, aquamarine lagoons and lush gardens have in common? A sense of stillness.
More often than not, life’s knots unwind and detangle in the slow pace of the tropics. Skin glows, time evaporates in a fine mist and problems bleach away in the sun. There’s a reason the locals have such a content spirit.
Surrounded by beautiful gardens, ocean and volcano views, the InterContinental Resort Tahiti is sure to help you slow down and savour life’s pleasures.
This idyllic stay is the epitome of the Polynesian way of life. Boasting picture-perfect swimming pools and an indulgent spa, it’s impossible not to slow down here. Simply being just a step away from the ocean in an exotic overwater bungalow is a sure way to feel your worries dissipate – and we can’t put a price on that.
InterContinental Resort Tahiti is perfectly located amongst local markets – brimming with handmade items for you to explore – while authentic Tahitian cultural events and five different restaurants promise to ease you into Tahiti time.
With reasonably affordable King Bed Classic rooms, this is the perfect property to rack up IHG Points! Booking the slow life starts now.
InterContinental Bora Bora Resort Thalasso Spa
If years gone by have taught us anything, it’s that our health and wellness is one of the most important parts of life.
Coined as ’the pearl of the Pacific’, InterContinental Bora Bora Resort & Thalasso Spa is where wellness meets pure luxury.
We often feel like we’ve struck gold when we wake feeling fresh, invigorated and healthy, but this is more of an assurance than a miracle at InterContinental Bora Bora Resort Thalasso Spa.
Feel like you’re floating on air in your overwater villa – cooled sustainably by the unforgettable aquamarine of Bora Bora’s sparkling lagoon – or literally take to the island skies with helicopter tours over the most stunning panoramas you’ll likely ever lay eyes on.
When it comes to nourishing yourself with food here, there’s an abundance of wholesome choice, with five world-class restaurants ready to tickle your taste buds and comfort your soul. The resort’s newest addition – a 1000 square metre organic garden – promises to support your holistic health with aromatic herbs and a seemingly endless supply of local fruits and vegetables grown with love and sustainable permaculture methods.
This is one of the most longed-for stays on the planet, which is why it’s crucial to plan your dream stay here well in advance.
