A chance to leave routine behind. To live the dream life, even if it is for a few days. But travel often comes with its own bag of challenges. Irks like loud neighbours in the room next to yours in a hotel, long queues at breakfast, the never-ending search for a free sunbed, and the tossing and turning at night because you miss your bed back home. But what if you had a home away from home. A <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elitehavens.com\/magazine\/a-villa-for-every-kind-of-traveller-which-type-of-guest-are-you\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dream haven<\/a><\/strong> that you could return to every time you wanted a break from your city life. Staff that felt like family. A bed where you knew you\u2019d sleep like a baby. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elitehavens.com\/magazine\/elite-talk-with-chef-tanaka-san-of-niseko-gourmet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lavish meals<\/a><\/strong> cooked to your taste, and an uncrowded pool where there would be no other families splashing around? Wouldn\u2019t that be something?<\/p>\n<p>Many have made this dream their reality. Little did they know, when they booked a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elitehavens.com\/all_villas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">villa<\/a><\/strong> or <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elitehavens.com\/japan-private-chalets\/\">chalet<\/a><\/strong> with Elite Havens the first time, that they would find their \u2018home away from home\u2019. A sanctuary that they didn\u2019t even know they needed. A place to call their own. An oasis to return to whenever they wanted a little pampering. But what is it about a holiday home that has Elite Havens guests returning year on year? We find out.<\/p>\n<h2>The perfect formula<\/h2>\n<p>For Anurag and Chani Srivastava from Singapore, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elitehavens.com\/sekka-ni-chalet\/hirafu-niseko-japan.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sekka Ni<\/a><\/strong> has become something of an annual winter pilgrimage.

Social spaces like living rooms or poolside decks make for fun-filled evenings, and a chef on call ensures that everyone in your group is well taken care of, regardless of their food restrictions and preferences.<\/p>\n<p>In destinations such as Japan, it is surprisingly more affordable to book a chalet during ski season, rather than separate bedrooms for a family.<\/p>\n<p>Anurag and Chani Srivastava add, <em>\u201c<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elitehavens.com\/sekka-ni-chalet\/hirafu-niseko-japan.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sekka Ni<\/a><\/strong> is like a home away from home.
