Check out the latest trend in luxury travel.

Forget ocean views. Luxury travelers today want more. Given the chaos of our busy lives, many of us seek a vacation that requires as little planning as possible but provides maximal rewards. Sure, an ocean view is nice to wake up to, but it doesn&rsquo;t afford the practical, luxurious ease travelers are searching for.

Imagine a vacation where you don&rsquo;t have to leave your room to revel in the beauty of your surroundings. A morning dip that doesn&rsquo;t require walking through a 2000 acre property to the beach to find that the only seats available are beside the family with the temperamental toddlers. What if you could enjoy a pre-dinner cocktail with a view without having to get dressed and leave your room? For this reason, private plunge pools have become an increasingly common trend in luxury travel.&nbsp;

&ldquo;A private plunge pool was once an amenity exclusively offered in hotels&rsquo; top-tier suite or villa accommodations, but now, they&rsquo;re being offered in various room types. Some luxury hotels even provide a private plunge pool as an amenity in every room on the property,&rdquo; says Jhonny Stathopoulou, Vice President of luxury travel agency&nbsp;<a href="https://foresttravel.com" target="_blank">Forest Travel</a>.

The appeal is obvious, Stathopoulou notes: &ldquo;Luxury travelers don&rsquo;t often want to share their vacation with other people, so a private plunge pool is an easy way to provide them exclusivity and solitude, while still allowing them to take full advantage of their vacation.

So whether you&rsquo;re taking a morning dip before scouring the markets of Marrakech, enjoying a sunset swim and cocktails after a long day exploring coral reefs, or simply spending an entire day in the privacy of your luxurious-abode doing absolutely nothing, here are the most luxurious private plunge pools around the world to get away from it all. &nbsp;
