While the situation in Italy is still difficult, weโre hoping to inspire some daydreaming and planning for the year to come with our upcoming blog posts. We have hope that one day soon weโll be able to enjoy the beauty of travel without thinking twice. Until then weโll keep showcasing the treasures that the country has to offer.
Weโve handpicked five luxury experiences in Italy so that when youโre thinking about packing your bags for your next holiday, youโll know exactly where to go to be pampered. From Lake Como to Puglia, weโve rounded up luxury Italian experiences that you wonโt easily forget.
Explore Lake Como Aboard a Vintage Riva Yacht
Nothing says luxury like a trip across the iconic Lake Como aboard an exquisite vintage Riva yacht. The design of the Riva yacht dates back to 1771 when the Riva family were making boats by hand in Laglio. The craftsmanship and classic feel of these boats is an example of the rich tradition that makes the region so special. Thereโs no better way to spend the day than exploring lakeside towns like Bellagio and Menaggio, sipping on prosecco and enjoying the majesty of the surrounding mountain ranges.
Visit the Pearl of the Adriatic Coast in Puglia
The quieter option for a seaside escape, the beaches of Puglia are the perfect place to put your feet up and relax. The region of Puglia is known for its mix of old world charm and contemporary flair. Stroll through sunny town squares and some of the oldest olive groves in Italy while you indulge in homemade gelato. While Polignano a Mare is one of the more popular towns in the area, we recommend a visit for its small port and charming architecture. The region boasts a diverse range of accommodation options so you can take your pick of beach front villas, eco-friendly resorts or sumptuous boutique hotels.
