2. Skagen, Denmark
Royal – Danish Crown Prince Frederik
Once popular with artist’s this tiny little fishing village of Skagen is now the summer destination for the Crown Prince Frederik and his family. It is a beautiful place, with tiny red tiled houses, wild and rugged landscape and rolling sand dunes.
3. Mount Kenya, Kenya
Royal – Prince William & Kate Middleton
Not for the faint hearted, this little cabin where it is rumoured that the Prince popped the question to Kate Middleton, is sat upon the slopes of Mount Kenya. Inaccessible by road, this log cabin can only be reached by the air, by horse or via a seven mile hike. The cabin does not even have electricity and is surrounded by prides of Lions, Rhino herds and Hyenas. of course the couple had staff at the cabin who would cook for them, and I’m guessing make them as comfortable as possible, so it can’t be all bad. Stay per night at the cabin is $360.

Royal – Prince Charles
One of Prince Charles’ favourite destinations is Klosters in the Alps, he has been going to the Parsenn skiing destination for around 40 years, in fact one of the cable cars is even called the Prince of Wales. He stays at the Hotel Walserhof in Klosters on his visits, I’m guessing he stays in one of the suites.
5. Balmoral, Scotland

The castle was purchased by Queen Victoria in 1848, and has been the Scottish residence of the Royals ever since.

If you would like to stay on the island, you could stay at the Cala di Volpe for a cost of $725 a night.
