Built in 1050, the conversion of the 11th century

Built in 1050, the conversion of the 11th century castle into a family-run hotel was a lifelong dream of the Bolza family. The construction of the current Castello began in 1999 by Conte Benedikt, who took over the property from his father who had bought it in a dilapidated state in 1984. Having trained as an architect, he begun his project of restoring the castle attracting the skills of some of the finest craftsmen in the world. Expect heavenly interiors, seamless design and a courtyard to beat all courtyards.

Well, I’ve finally found it. Heaven. One of the most magical places I’ve ever had the pleasure to stay, Hotel Castello Di Reschio is the epitome of Italian luxury...devilishly chic and jaw-droppingly stylish whilst remaining understated and modest in the efforts and work that goes on behind the scenes to create a haven as tranquil as this.

Totally enchanted by the glorious Finca Cortesin.

Totally enchanted by the glorious Finca Cortesin. Amazingly this hotel opened in 2009, although the design and architecture leads you to believe it’s been there for donkeys years.

Privately owned, the attention to detail here is simply exquisite. From the hand-painted Alhambra ceiling to the number of staff for each guest, you’ll be treated to 23,000sqm of gardens and 3 pools (including an Olympic sized adult-only one) shared between just 67 suites and private villas.

They have one of the 50 best golf courses in the world a mere 1-minute walk away and special green fees and access to the golf courses in nearby Sotogrande. Alongside a sensational indoor pool, gym and spa for the adults and a great kids club which offers a complimentary 3-hours per day when in season. You can also amuse yourself with nearby hikes, biking, their meditation centre, watersports and tennis courts.

I have been blown away by this place. Utterly private, incredibly spacious and peaceful and yet with 7* service and a sizzlingly cool beach club 🔥

In the week we celebrated #EarthDay, we were whisked away to foreign lands by One&Only reiginiting our love for travel once again. Our stories this week will cover some of their amazing properties (including their new offerings in Desaru Coast Malaysia and Mandarina in Mexico and the hotly anticipated Montenegro hotel opening this summer) but our hearts have mainly been stolen by One&Only Nyungwe House and Gorilla’s Nest in Rwanda 🦍

WE ARE BACK!! As you probably could tell, I took a much needed a step back from social media of late (eek 4 months later 🤯) but some of you know how incredibly difficult the last year was for me and I needed time to regroup. Now, with the recent announcements and surge of optimism for the future, it feels great to be planning trips with you again...please do get in touch with any travel enquiries you may have!

NB I don’t usually post anything personal but this is a special memory from a trip I took a few years ago in Puglia staying at one of my absolute favourite hotels 🥰

With the exciting news that the UK government has

With the exciting news that the UK government has dropped quarantine requirements to the Maldives and BA have recently resumed direct flights from LHR, there has never been a better time to take advantage of some seriously special rates and escape to some winter sun, pronto!

Take a look at our stories to see a snapshot of some of our favourite special offers, but as always, just get in touch with your preferred dates and budget and we can send over some options before the end of the day.

Please note all arrivals must present a COVID –19 PCR test with a negative result taken no more than 96 hours before arrival. However, Emirates no longer requires Covid-19 PCR test for passengers transiting to and from Maldives. No quarantine required on return to UK

Some more happy memories from our clients at Macak

Some more happy memories from our clients at Macakizi in Turkey last week who were still there when the quarantine rules came into place for UK travellers. We could have got them home before the curfew but they said they were “more than happy to survive off Ocado orders for a fortnight back in the UK in order to spend one extra day out here!”

James & Bex, October 2020
“I can’t believe it has taken me a week to reply, especially as we wouldn’t have had such a wonderful time if it wasn’t for you.

Bex kept saying I had ruined her as she wouldn’t accept anything less in the future!

We will definitely return”

Ah, we went quiet again! To be honest, the daily grind of running a travel business in the time of COVID can take its toll so a break from social media was needed. To keep spirits high this week, we have decided to concentrate on stories from happy clients who continue to remind us exactly why we do our job and why travel is so damn wonderful!

Jeremy & Cat, September 2020
“We’re emailing from the terrace of Comporta Cafe drinking white sangria (as you suggested!) as the sun is starting to come out! What more could we want!
We just wanted to say a big thank you for organising such an amazing honeymoon for us, it’s been absolutely perfect. A good mix of city life in Lisbon, country rest and relaxation and cool beach side luxury. We’ve been spoilt by champagne throughout and the amazing double upgrade at Sao Lourenco so thank you for pulling all the strings! Normally I would enjoy planning every detail of each holiday myself but I have to say this has been an absolute game changer. Every suggestion has been spot on and the whole honeymoon has been completely stress free so thank you so much for everything. We'll be in touch again before we plan our next trip for sure!”

“We had the most blissful time away. We racked up a substantial bar bill to be fair but it was just what the doctor ordered!! I also cannot recommend the spa enough – it was superb and the therapist I had was excellent and really knew her stuff.

Thank you so much for helping us out – I will definitely be back in touch when I need my next fix”

Happy clients. Happy life 💛☺️

Armchair travelling to #Portugal today, a destination that has it all and is now off the quarantine list for UK travellers (Boris, could you PLEASE make up your mind?! 😐)

Choose between a combination of Comporta’s crisp white sand beaches, the historic cobbled lanes of Lisbon, surf lessons in Cascais (or the fairly undiscovered Praia de Seixo), a port wine tour in the Douro Valley and the family-friendly - seemingly always sunny - Algarve

all whilst eating and drinking your body weight in sardines fresh from the market, their eponymous pastéis de nata (custard tarts), excellent local wines and their most famous export, port

Contact us today for a last minute getaway to Portugal. It’s an incredible time to travel if you can. Hotels have never been cheaper (we are currently putting together itineraries that would usually cost double what they are currently). And yes, we know it’s last minute but we are really rather good at last minute. In fact, we really enjoy it!
