Out Of Office is the world’s leading luxury LGBTQ+ travel company, designing tailor-made itineraries to the world’s most beautiful destinations. Among the most requested: the Maldives, Bora Bora, Japan, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Italy, and Greece, with the islands of Mykonos and Santorini high on the list.
The Maldives is the benchmark for tropical luxury. More than 1,000 islands scattered through the Indian Ocean, most of them ringed by lagoons in every shade of blue and reefs alive with reef sharks, manta rays, and clouds of butterflyfish.
Overwater villas, private pools, and dawn-to-dusk privacy are the standard rather than the exception. The majority of resorts welcome same-sex couples without question, and our team knows the ones that go further than that.
Bora Bora is French Polynesia at its most luxurious. Overwater bungalows look out at Mount Otemanu rising over a turquoise lagoon, with reefs to snorkel, motus to picnic on, and the kind of remoteness that makes the long flight worthwhile.
South Africa packs several holidays into one country. Cape Town’s De Waterkant and Sea Point anchor the continent’s most established LGBTQ+ scene, with the Cape Winelands of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek 45 minutes inland and the Cape Peninsula’s beaches, penguins, and dramatic coastline on the doorstep. Head north to Kruger, Sabi Sands, or the Madikwe to track the Big Five from luxury camps where the morning game drive sets the pace for the day.

Mauritius: The Out Of Office Collection
Tailor-made VacationMauritius is one of the LGBTQ+-friendly pearls of the Indian Ocean. Unlike its Indian Ocean neighbor the Maldives, Mauritius is comprised of a single island. Mauritius is considered a superb beach destination, especially on the north side of the island, where the longest stretch of beaches can be found. Our favorite beach in Mauritius is Belle Mare Plage, a peaceful and palm-lined shore with powder-white sands.

The Southern Maldives: Pullman Maamutaa & Park Hyatt Hadahaa
Tailor-made VacationThe Southern Maldives operates on a different scale from the atolls clustered near Malé. Gaafu Alifu, where both properties sit, is roughly five to six hours away by speedboat, or a shorter domestic flight followed by a transfer, and that distance does the real work of keeping the atoll quiet. It filters out day-trippers, leaving reefs with far less traffic than the more accessible northern resorts.

The Best of Malé: Waldorf Astoria & Reethi Rah
