What to Pack for a Luxury Beach Vacation in 2025: The PerfectKini Resort Edit

A great resort trip comes down to ten pieces. Not fifty. Ten. The right ten — versatile, elevated, and chosen with intention — will cover every look from sunrise yoga to sunset cocktails without overpacking a single bag.

Here's the PerfectKini resort edit: ten pieces that cover every moment of a luxury beach vacation, all available NWT at fair market value.

The Swimwear Foundation: Three Essential Swim Pieces

1. A signature bikini set — Your hero piece. Something with personality that you'll reach for on the best beach days. The L*Space Lost in Ibiza Bikini Set ($187 NWT) is a complete top and bottom set that reads unmistakably luxury poolside. L*Space is one of California's most recognizable swim brands, and this print delivers exactly the resort energy the name promises.

2. A clean one-piece — For days when you want to move freely — paddleboarding, snorkeling, exploring a beach town. The Vitamin A Gisele One Piece ($70 NWT) is a clean, classic silhouette that works in the water and out of it. The sustainable BioRib fabric holds its shape all day.

3. A second bikini bottom to mix — Separates are the secret to a flexible swim wardrobe. Grab a neutral like the Bond-Eye Savannah High Cut Bottom ($85 NWT) — Bond-Eye's crinkle texture and high-leg silhouette pair with practically any top in your bag.

The Cover-Up Layer: Day to Night Versatility

4. A resort dress — The piece that takes you from the pool to lunch to a beach bar. The Hunza G Tank Dress ($255 NWT) is a masterclass in resort dressing. Hunza G's signature stretch fabric looks as good at 8am poolside as it does at dinner — no ironing, no fuss.

5. A mini dress for evening — The Indah Babyruth Long Sleeve Mini Dress ($100 NWT) covers the evening look effortlessly. Indah is a Bali-based brand that understands resort dressing better than almost anyone — relaxed enough to feel on vacation, polished enough for a nice dinner.

6. A lightweight midi skirt — Pairs with a bikini top, a tank, or a bralette. Endlessly versatile for beach towns and open-air markets. The Elan Vita Midi Skirt ($60) is an easy grab that earns its suitcase space ten times over.

The Extras: Polish Without Bulk

7. A chic bikini bottom for mix-and-match days — The Maaji Suzy Q High Rise Bottom ($62 NWT) is a reversible, feminine silhouette that functions as a standalone beach look with a tied shirt or worn with any of your tops from home.

8. A luxe cover-up top or bodysuit — The Vitamin A White Organic West Bodysuit ($85 NWT) transitions from pool to resort dinner with a simple wardrobe switch. White is the universal resort neutral.

9. A bold bikini top to mix — The ViX Flower Amber Bikini Top ($98 NWT) brings the kind of handcrafted Brazilian elegance that ViX Paula Hermanny is known for. Pair it with the Bond-Eye bottom or any neutral from your collection.

10. A statement lounge piece — For travel days, beach walks, and resort mornings. The MIKOH Luca Velour Lounge Shorts ($90 NWT) are the elevated version of a beach coverup — MIKOH's California aesthetic translated into the most comfortable shorts you'll bring on the trip.
