Concept
Indigo Lodges searched for private properties around the world that stood out for their architecture, design, and location. Most were located in internationally known and sought after resorts but some were in remote natural areas. The villas could be contemporary or traditional but had to have a strong coherence in their interior decoration and an excellent finish. Properties came in all sizes from 1 bedroom to 23 bedrooms and with varying sizes of terrain. The company's objective was to make sure there was something available for every taste and for up to at least 12 persons where possible.
To ensure that clients benefited the most from their holidays, Indigo Lodges also sought out, trained, and supplied butlers and chefs to staff these properties. The emphasis was on personnel that was attentive but discrete: the service should not be seen or heard but only experienced in the most enjoyable manner. Daily cleaning was always included and the properties were run to the standards of each client: service would be formal or less formal as appropriate. Indigo Lodges was the only villa rental company offering a guarantee on the quality of its lodging and service.
Indigo Lodge’s clients were primarily from Europe. They were among the world’s most sophisticated and wealthy travelers and often were owners themselves of the types of houses they rented on holiday. They trusted Indigo Lodges to manage their holidays and to ensure their family and friend’s experience.

Famous quotes containing the word concept:
“I was thinking what an interesting concept it is to eliminate the writer from the artistic process. If we can just get rid of these actors and directors, maybe we got something here.”
—Michael Tolkin, U.S. screenwriter, and Robert Altman. Griffin Mill (Tim Robbins)
“The two most far-reaching critical theories at the beginning of the latest phase of industrial society were those of Marx and Freud. Marx showed the moving powers and the conflicts in the social-historical process. Freud aimed at the critical uncovering of the inner conflicts. Both worked for the liberation of man, even though Marx’s concept was more comprehensive and less time-bound than Freud’s.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
“To find the length of an object, we have to perform certain
physical operations. The concept of length is therefore fixed when the operations by which length is measured are fixed: that is, the concept of length involves as much as and nothing more than the set of operations by which length is determined.”
—Percy W. Bridgman (1882–1961)
