No, oh-whoa-whoa, no, no, no, no

Get on a plane (plane, plane)
Call it the sweetest escape
I wanna go
I wanna feel
I wanna feel your body
People gon' talk
Like it or not
So maybe don't tell nobody (mmm)
And I know I been distant
I been seeing other guys
You been kissing other bitches (mm-hmm)
I think you should come and visit
I got someone else who isn't you
Pulling up in minute, uh, yeah
Don't you know what you're missing
In a five-star high hotel in Mauritius? (I, I, I, I)
Think I know what you're missing
In a five-star high hotel in Mauritius, mmm
Come seek, I'm hiding
Sick of drunk dialing
Come to my hotel, baby, don't fight it
I just wanna hang on your neck like a diamond, uh-uh
Look at that timing

Took the Benz down to the coast
I'm tryna drink, I'm tryna smoke
Set it on fire, I took a toke of that (ooh, ah)
Clearing my mind, if you were mine
You would be here, we would be fine
There would be wine
We would be high on that, mmm
And I know I been distant
You been loving other girls
I won't tell you who I'm kissing, yeah
I think you should come and visit
I got one fine piece of man
Standing in position, oh, baby
Don't you know what you're missing
In a five-star high hotel in Mauritius? (I, I, I, I)
Think I know what you're missing
In a five-star high hotel in Mauritius, mmm
Come seek, I'm hiding (hiding, hiding)
Sick of drunk dialing

Touching, kissing

Don't you wanna roll in my Rolls
With the stars on the ceilings
Come see this feeling now
Come feel like you're dreaming now
Come be by my side baby, I take you on a ride, baby
I'll show you why I'm different
You don't need a reason, no
We've always been distant
Always just existing
Well, let's exist together now
Ooh, ooh, baby
Don't you know what you're missing
In a five-star high hotel in Mauritius?
Ooh, ooh, baby
Don't you know what you're missing
In a five-star high hotel in Mauritius?
The lyrics of Raye's song "Five Star Hotels" express a longing for the company of a particular person in a setting of luxury and indulgence. The artist suggests that the person she is addressing needs to take a break and escape from their routine, and that they should come and visit her at a five-star hotel in Mauritius. The idea of indulgence is reinforced by the lines "I'm tryna drink, I'm tryna smoke/Set it on fire, I took a toke of that/Clearing my mind, if you were mine/You would be here, we would be fine". Despite the possibility of being judged by others, the artist wants to share this experience with the person she is singing to, offering an intimate moment with high-end experiences. The line "Don't you know what you're missing" is a repeated refrain throughout the song, highlighting the missed opportunity for an intimate high-end experience.
