Luxury World Travel | By Sherry Trautman | Travel-Mi.com

If the thought of luxury travel sparks images of world class experiences, exquisite hotels, top notch surroundings and outstanding restaurants, your next vacation just might be in Michigan!

In the world of luxury travel, Michigan offers top-notch hotels, restaurants and experiences that will create memories for years to come.  Plus, private jet travel is on the rise and is a great way to discover Michigan's Hidden Gems.

1. Mackinac Island, Grand Hotel and Pink Pony

I believe Mackinac Island is at the top of luxury world travel vacation choices as the Island and non-chain hotels offer incredibly immersive experiences. 

Here's Why You Should Stay at the Grand Hotel:

• First, it's on an island!!  You can only get there by private boat or ferry. 
• Pampering and luxury is at its finest at the Grand Hotel.  Your baggage is taken to your hotel from the ferry and you will arrive at the hotel in style: By horse drawn carriage. 
• Enjoy the evening on the hotel's long veranda while sipping a drink and watching the horse drawn carriages slowly pass by.   
• No vehicles are allowed on the island so you will sleep soundly at night, free of honking or loud vehicle noises outside your windows.
• The island is very safe, even at night.  So go for a long walk along the shoreline! 
• Lots of diverse outdoor activities including ferry rides, horse drawn carriages, bike riding, kayaking opportunities and sightseeing. 

The Pink Pony is also an exceptional hotel experience while staying on Mackinac Island. Their restaurant is top notch and one of our favorite places to eat!
