This website will soon be a year old, which means it’s time for a slight change.

I’ll carry on reviewing hotels and resorts, especially as new ones open all the time. I’m currently in the incredible Cairo Garden City (see pic above) and just yesterday I got alerted that a Paris themed resort will be opening next month.

However I’m aware that concentrating on hotels only is quite niche, and so I’ll be broadening out the remit of this website to include the following:

Restaurants, spas, tours and cruises

Do you own or operate one of these, or do you think I should know about one? Message me in world - Dirk Vanlager

I’ll also now be willing to consider advertorial style previews and posts, with obviously full disclosure that this is the case. With 31,000 page views to date this year, the traffic to this site is decent, and I can get your venture a fair amount of exposure. Message me for a rate card.

I will also be up for doing giveaways (2 free stays for readers etc) to promote any new opening.

Finally, this website now has a Facebook page to accompany it, you can find it here!
