We are absolutely impressed by the level of service Finca Cortesin. Every detail has maximum care. They also have a Beach Club in an incredible place, pure Mediterranean
What a diverse selection of places to stay. I love the idea of camping in the UK juxtaposed with the over the top luxury of the Ritz in Moscow. Thanks for posting this.
Great selections. JK Capri is a personal favorite. Paris is also an incredible destination for couples. Shangri-la is by far one of the most romantic places I’ve seen!
Oh, wow!! Wonderful places, I can imagine myself at camping place in Italy, Portugal, and Greece for a week or two :)
I can’t imagine staying in Santorini with a room overlooking the Aegean as opposed to the Caldera
