This year, join at any of our COMO Hotels and Resorts worldwide, to embrace the journey you’ve not yet taken, to explore the places you’ve not yet been.

This is the year to discover the best version of yourself — to make transformative decisions about the holidays that matter to you, and everyone you love.

Life is Jorney

COMO Journeys are residencies led by experts in a variety of fields, from photography to sport. Hosted in our extraordinary locations, they're an opportunity to learn a new skill or improve your practice.

In 2023, we're hosting wellness weekends in Perth and Phuket, yoga in Tuscany, and a month-long champion-guided kitesurfing residency with Youri Zoon, as well as a two-week underwater photography course with Henley Spiers.

Change from the Heart

'What does it mean to be content, to sustain and experience inner peace?' asks Dr. Daniel Cordaro, founder of The Contentment Foundation.

This year, via the COMO Foundation, we're launching a new partnership with Daniel's organisation in Bhutan, working to empower children, teachers and the community in the town of Paro, local to our flagship hotel. Journalist Catherine Fairweather finds out more.

In view of Luxury

At COMO Hotels and Resorts, it is difference which inspires us. The authenticity of place. The deep-dive experiences that belong to a culture, a dish, a terroir. This spring, we’re opening our first hotel in one of the most coveted wine regions in France, and a new farmhouse-hotel in the Tuscan hills – the luxury of the unrepeatable.

From seed to table

Wherever we can, we grow close to home. More than half our COMO properties have edible gardens, which help supply our culinary teams. We compost our waste to create a circle of sustainability — a small example of a transformative green agenda we’re driving in 2023 in collaboration with Earth Check, a globally recognized certification body.

EAT GREEN

COMO Cocoa Island and COMO Maalifushi are the luxury resorts in the Maldives, an island nation in the Indian Ocean with clear waters and white beaches. Each of these resorts integrates the spirit of place with world-class cuisine, seamless service, and COMO Shambhala's wellness expertise.
