By: Frank DePino | May 18, 2023

Whether your company specializes in luxury goods or luxury real estate, you must have a luxury website design that conveys your message. As you sit down with web developers to plan that design, you might need some inspiration.

This post will serve as that inspiration. Ahead, we’ll go through 30 luxury websites and share the design elements for each. We’ll then talk about why those elements work exceptionally well. 

Luxury/High-End Brand Website Examples

1. Musha Cay and the Islands of Copperfield Bay

High end Website Design - Musha Cay, developed by Mediaboom

The Bahamian island of Musha Cay is a premier destination for honeymooners, vacationers, and those who live and breathe luxury travel. 

Although it doesn’t take much to convince someone to take a vacation to the Bahamas, the Musha Cay website still does an exceptional job of pulling you in. 

Upon visiting the site, you’re greeted by scrolling videos showing the gorgeous Bahama island and footage of luxe amenities you can enjoy, everything from swimming to sightseeing. 

2.  Rolls-Royce 

Rolls Royce developed an outstanding Luxury Website Design.

The British car brand Rolls-Royce needs no introduction, which is why their website skips right to showing off the features of their latest and greatest vehicular models.

One point of interest is that as you navigate the pages, your mouse pointer becomes a rounded pointer instead. This gives the browsing experience a posher air than the tired pointer. 

The smooth animation of the navigation bar makes for a good user experience while the consistently dark, sexy colors are perfect for a luxury brand. This is a great luxury website design overall.
