Have you heard of luxscaping?
It’s one of 2026’s biggest travel trends, and the idea is surprisingly simple: instead of paying for an entire luxury vacation, you add a few nights of five-star luxury to the beginning or end of an otherwise normal trip.
Many people are already doing it. 59% of travellers surveyed across Europe, the Middle East and Africa have tried luxscaping. Among South African travellers, that rises to 64%, including 74% of Gen Z travellers.
Why? 33% said it allows them to experience a level of luxury they couldn’t necessarily afford for their entire vacation.
September could be the perfect month to try it too, with travellers increasingly choosing trips later in the year.
The idea is simple: your entire vacation doesn’t need to be five-star. Sometimes, two fabulous nights are enough. 🥂
