Vacation on the Rublyovka or Abroad — A Comparative Analysis

In the past, even tourists with substantial means did not regard a holiday in the Moscow suburbs as an option for elite travel. Choosing between the Dominican Republic and the Maldives, Russians moved farther away from the nature familiar to them — and therefore most beneficial. Undoubtedly, exotic trips to Asian countries and luxurious hotels in Europe will always have their admirers, but increasingly our tourists are heading to the Moscow region, and there are several reasons for that.

During the notorious crisis, everyone — even the wealthiest people — begins to think about their expenses. On a distant trip, the largest portion of funds is spent on flights and transfers to the holiday destination. Besides the extra financial costs, travel eats up precious vacation days. You have to shorten your holiday, dedicating at least two days to flights, waits at airports and transfers to the hotel.

By vacationing in your own country and not traveling far from your home city, you can save money, time and your nerves. Having satisfied their desire for foreign sights, more and more people want to spend their holidays in a pine forest, grilling shashlik and enjoying a banya. The only deterrent until recently was the level of service and comfort in Russia, but now everything has changed for the better.

Nowadays renting cottages on the Rublyovo-Uspenskoye Highway is not difficult. A vacation on the Rublyovka will be no lower in standard than at the world’s leading resorts. Accustomed to expensive hotels, a cottage resident will be pleasantly surprised by its interior and furnishings. Leading designers participated in decorating Moscow-region cottages, using modern materials and elite Italian furniture in each project.

You can vacation in the Moscow region without breaking away from civilization — all the delights of the 21st century that pleased guests in elite foreign hotels are present here too. Satellite television and internet, a jacuzzi and a swimming pool are far from the full list of additional services provided, which every modern person needs.

For fans of the all-inclusive system, the Moscow suburbs also offer every convenience. Now you don’t need to travel far to eat deliciously at any time of day. The menus in cottages and sanatoriums are overseen by the best chefs from Moscow.

It is the health complexes of the Moscow region that are famous for their restorative programs. In addition, you can finally devote yourself entirely to treating long-standing ailments under the supervision of highly qualified doctors. Not many foreign wellness hotels — let alone Russian sanatoriums — can boast the modern equipment available here.

The main advantage of vacationing in the Moscow region for many is the absence of acclimatization. The familiar climate allows you to start enjoying your holiday from the very first minute without subjecting your body to additional stress. And Russian cuisine rules out the risk of food poisoning, which so often happened to Russian tourists on holidays in exotic countries.
