Parisian company Le Collectionist has announced its launch in the UK, providing British travel connoisseurs with access to a curated selection of exceptional private properties in sought-after destinations across the globe.

With a dedicated team of expert travel specialists, Le Collectionist bridges the gap between a five-star hotel stay and a home rental company, offering unparalleled, tailor-made villa experiences with hotel-like services. Guests can choose from destinations in Europe such as the French Riviera and Provence; Sardinia and Sicily; Andalucia and Ibiza and Zermatt and Verbier. Further afield, Brazil, Argentina and the Caribbean offer a plethora of beautiful Le Collectionist properties along with Indonesia, Thailand, the Maldives and many more aspirational destinations.

Rentals range from Chateau Beynaguet in Languedoc, an exceptional 17th century palace once stayed in by King Louis XIII, to the award-winning Villa Chaweng Noi, a contemporary home that sits on top of the spectacular coastline in southern Thailand, with 180-degree ocean views and two infinity pools. Each and every one of the Le Collectionist properties offers a refined and authentic experience that embodies the 'home away from home' concept.

To ensure consistently high standards, Le Collectionist carefully handpicks each property, and provides hotel-like services such as housekeeping, a butler, a chef, or even a nanny.  A concierge team that is in-the-know when it comes to local activities and restaurants along with off-the-beaten-track experiences is available 24/7 to fulfill each guest's demands for a unique Le Collectionist stay - be it a private boat trip or wine tasting.

Those looking for a winter escape this coming season can see just how much the slopes have to offer with Le Collectionist's selection of private luxury chalets. Chalet Carl in Lech, Austria, boasts a private spa, sauna, indoor pool, salt-cave steam bath, wine cellar and library. Other highlight properties include Chalet Gannat, Courchevel; Chalet Eugenia, Megeve; and Chalet Matten, Zermatt.

Earlier this year, Le Collectionist partnered with leading luxury brand Orlebar Brown to create style combinations to complement five stunning destination villas. In keeping with the contemporary and stylish look of ultimate Ibiza getaway Villa Hortas, Orlebar Brown selected an outfit that works round the clock with party ready Setter shorts in dazzling white and an OB-T Rocksure Hulton Getty print.
