Provence, France:
With its rolling vineyards, mountain vistas, lavender fields, and olive oil groves, this French region is nothing short of awe-inspiring. The yet-to-be-opened Hôtel Crillon Le Brave (@HotelCrillonLeBrave) offers luxury accommodations, two gourmet eateries, and a tranquil spa housed in an 18th century-era stone sable.
Dubrovnik, Croatia:
This historic Croatia city is best explored on foot. Wander through Old Town before retreating to your room at Villa Dubrovnik (@VillaHotelDubrovnik), which is known for its peaceful surroundings, sleek architecture, and sun-drenched guest rooms.
Bodrum, Turkey:
The often-overlooked city of Bodrum overlooks the Aegean Sea and offers excellent views of the centuries-old Bodrum Castle. Catch up on R&R at Amanruya (@Amanruya), surrounded by private pebble beaches and pine forests. Accommodations feature private pools and picturesque gardens.
New York, NY:
Explore The Big Apple in style with a stay at The Mark Hotel (@TheMarkHotelNY). Live out your Gossip Girl dreams and rent out the property’s penthouse and take in the panoramic city views.
