Six Senses Zighy Bay: the awesome rigged beauty of Oman

No Comments

Six Senses Zighy Bay has been a dream to me for years. Not only because I am a huge fan of Six Senses Hotels but because it was love at first sight. The first time I saw the pictures of this property I was sure that I was going to see it with my own eyes. It took longer than I expected and even though I knew almost everything about the hotel, I got surprised and had one of the most amazing times of my life. I am very excited to share all the details of my stay with you. Enjoy the ride!

Add to this two private beaches strewn with extra-soft white sand, four swimming pools, a three-level spa where signature treatments share space with famous local hammam, some of the best restaurants of the region and a team which is totally committed to delight and satisfy its guests. I visited this gem this summer and it will be a pleasure to share each detail of my amazing stay. Enjoy the ride!

L’Assiette Champenoise is the starred experience in Champagne

No Comments

This stay was a dream coming true to me. L’Assiette Champenoise is a place I always wanted to visit. First time I heard about it was during a trip to Champagne some years ago, when a champagne producer told me that this was the best and most exclusive hotel and restaurant in the region. I finally spent three nights in the property last month only to conclude that this statement is absolutely true. Enjoy the ride!

Anantara Vilamoura: an authentic journey in Algarve

No Comments

Have you ever been to Algarve, in Portugal? This has always been a destination on my list but somehow always postponed for whatever reason. The “status quo” was about to change quite fast the day I read in a magazine that ANANTARA VILAMOURA had opened its doors. As a huge fan of Anantara hotels, I quickly booked a room and packed my bags. Enjoy the ride!

Pulitzer hotel: Dutch elegance in Amsterdam’s top location

Pulitzer has been one of my favourite hotels in Amsterdam even before I stayed in it and the reason is quite simple: the property is all about quintessential Dutch elegance in an intricate maze of 25 connecting Golden Age canal houses which were fully renovated in 2016. I gladly spent a couple of days at Pulitzer some weeks ago and it will be a pleasure to tell you every detail about my wonderful stay – another great trip with Preferred Hotels. Enjoy the ride!
