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:
“Teaching Black Studies, I find that students are quick to label a black person who has grown up in a predominantly white setting and attended similar schools as “not black enough.” ...Our concept of black experience has been too narrow and constricting.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
“The concept of a person is logically prior to that of an individual consciousness. The concept of a person is not to be analysed as that of an animated body or an embodied anima.”
—Sir Peter Frederick Strawson (b. 1919)
“Modern man, if he dared to be articulate about his concept of heaven, would describe a vision which would look like the biggest department store in the world, showing new things and gadgets, and himself having plenty of money with which to buy them. He would wander around open-mouthed in this heaven of gadgets and commodities, provided only that there were ever more and newer things to buy, and perhaps that his neighbors were just a little less privileged than he.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
