To a certain degree that's inevitable.
Wealth buys comfort.
Constitutionally the purpose of bail is to ensure they don't flee and aren't a danger to the community while they await trial. It's not supposed to be a punishment since they haven't been convicted of anything yet.
So wealthy non-violent offenders should have the right to sit in lavish homes with an ankle monitor until they are actually convicted.
