WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN MONEY IS NO OBJECT? WHY, BE SUPER SWANK, OF COURSE!

Welcome to the world of over-the-top luxury. Where money is no barrier and every whim is indulged. From mind-blowing luxurious spa resorts and hotels to opulent homes and vehicles, live the high life and experience in Discovery Travel & Living's new series SUPER SWANK. Over eight episodes, you'll take a ride in high-end recreational vehicles, step aboard multi-million dollar yachts, live in five-star hotels, holiday on the most exclusive beaches and eat the best food money can buy. Premiere episodes of SUPER SWANK air every Saturday at 2100 hrs (9:00 pm SIN/HK) beginning January 31. Encores every Sunday at 0900 hrs (9:00 am) and 1500 hrs (3:00 pm); Monday at 0100 hrs (1:00 am) and 0700 hrs (7:00 am).

Imagine a life where money is no object, and only the best is bought. A world of flowing cash and unlimited credit. Here, you will meet the people who design yachts and the people who buy them, experience the luxury treatments given at upscale spa resorts, gamble in Vegas with every care taken care of, walk on the most secluded beaches and travel to your destination in motorized mansions.

Step into a world that most of us will never know as SUPER SWANK opens the doors to the lifestyles of the über rich (and not necessarily famous) in the following episodes:

  • RVs
    This is the world of luxury recreational vehicles (RVs) at its most lavish. Take a behind-the-scenes look at one of the most expensive RV design companies in the world, tour the high-end trailers used by Hollywood celebrities, visit a five-star resort exclusively for RV owners, and find out how this lifestyle could be yours at a fraction of the price.
  • Mega Yachts
    The ultimate status symbol for those with mega-money is a mega-yacht. And if you thought a 36-meter boat was big, think again. We get on board the world's most luxurious maritime mansions to meet the people who design them and the millionaires who buy them. From songwriter Denise Rich's "Lady Joy" to the newly christened "Mine Games", this marine bling will blow you away.
  • Outrageous Hotel Suites
    These are hotel suites that will blow your mind and wallet - but anything goes when money's no object. From basketball courts to bowling alleys, we tour the over-the-top suites of Sin City, hit the ultra-hip Ivy Hotel in San Diego, break the bank at Miami's Setai and jet set to London's famed Mayfair Hotel. And yes, five star accommodations do mean five-figure prices... at least.
  • Totally Indulgent Spas
    Visit some of the most expensive and exclusive spas around, where being pampered in style comes at a high price. Southern California's Cal-a-Vie is a celebrity magnet, while Florida's Little Palm takes privacy to a whole new level with its own island. In Las Vegas, Canyon Ranch Spa Club offers some truly over-the-top treatments, and Canada's ancient Cedars turns nature into luxury.
  • Luxury Vacation Homes
    Those who own huge houses have high standards when it comes to renting vacation homes. Nothing less than the biggest, best and most opulent will do for the jet set crowd. We'll visit a private paradise in the Bahamas, a luxurious villa in Barbados and a 1,300 square meter palace in Las Vegas. And if none of those will do, there's always the house that Cher used to live in... seriously, it's for rent.
  • Beyond Fabulous Beach Resorts
    Wondering where the wealthy go when they want to hit the beach? Here's a hint: It's expensive, it's exclusive and it's very far from the masses. We venture to Mexico's Las Ventanas, where passion burns so bright, they even have a romance director. Then we head to Barbados, British Columbia and Miami for the ultimate in sandy getaways.
  • Vegas, Baby, Vegas
    There's no place like Sin City to spend lots of money and live it up in style. From hiring a high-end concierge who takes care of your every need, to doing some major credit card damage at designer boutiques and dining at the most expensive restaurants in the United States, high rollers can have it real good in Sin City.
  • Lavish Log Homes
    If you think renting a log cabin means roughing it, then you haven't seen these ones. Visit the most luxurious rustic retreats on the market, where a steep nightly rate doesn't just get you a massive fireplace, but also someone to light it for you, turn on the hot tub, make the beds, and cook gourmet meals!
