Because don’t we all secretly aspire to be Charles and Alexandra’s plush-hotel-and-paddock-hopping dachshund, Leo LeClerc?

According to TripAdvisor’s 2026 Trendcast Report, pet tourism is up by a staggering 260% year-on-year. And by no means is man’s best friend ruff-ing it: industry data reveals that dog owners are booking longer stays, spending more on property, and demonstrating far higher brand loyalty than regular guests. Finding a property that truly embraces your four-legged companion can be a minefield of restrictive weight limits, hidden cleaning fees, and dining bans; but at these destinations, luxury guests on two legs and on four are embraced and catered to

To help you plan your next trip, here’s our curated selection of VIP (Very Important Paws) stays around the world:
