La dolce vita, as it’s known, is the Italian way of life literally translated as ‘the sweet life’. Rich in delicious home-cooked food, filled with love, laughter, family and plenty of culture, it’s the reason why those who visit Italy, return time and again.
So, before you choose your luxury villa rental and pack your Louis Vuitton, take a moment to read up on these three must-visit destinations to visit. Whether it’s your first or fifth visit to Italy, there’s always somewhere (old) and new to discover and unearth, from the mainland to its offshore islands.
Calling all jet-set travellers and luxury lovers – Sardinia has you covered! This stunning destination boasts 2,000km of golden coastline, hundreds of beaches, and sunny alcoves waiting to be explored. If beach life is for you, then head to the Sinis Peninsula, for some of the best.
Enjoy coastal views from your luxury Sardinia rental, mooring up in the nearby dock. This is a real haven for those in the superyacht fraternity. As such, it caters well to high-end taste, ensuring you’re never too far away from a links golf course, or five-star restaurant when culture comes calling.
Do as the locals and sip champagne while dining al fresco on fresh lobster – and that’s just for lunch! Sardinia captivates all the senses and will captivate you too.
For a traditional Italian escape, Tuscany is well suited to those looking to press pause and enjoy the slower pace of life.
The best way to enjoy the true Tuscan experience, is from the comfort of a luxury home all to yourself - like Villa Teresa set in the countryside. From here you’re perfectly placed to explore the wider region, or stay put and uncover local delights: a gentle walk in the countryside, slow-cooked cuisine in a nearby café, or visiting an art gallery tucked away.
With Florence, Pisa, Grosetto and Siena, all within easy reach, it’s always fun to hire an open-top car and live our your Italian dreams. Just be sure to pack a picnic full of treats and make a day of it.
Step inside the postcard that is the Amalfi Coast. Impossibly beautiful, here white-washed luxury villas teeter off cliffs, with turquoise waters crashing below. Rugged yet romantic, it’s no wonder the Amalfi Coast is a firm favourite with the rich and famous.
In Positano, take a seat in a restaurant hanging off its craggy cliff edge, and dine on local wine – some of the best you’ll ever enjoy. With windy roads, and hidden gems, it’s ideal for the intrepid traveller, especially those with a head for heights.
Or perhaps you’re in the mood for Capri; a chic and bijou island with dramatic views. Follow in the footsteps of the well-heeled that have visited before, as you enjoy poolside vibes with a glass of Aperol-Spritz. It’s a Capri thing!
