What does your perfect vacation day look like?

My perfect day blends relaxation, adventure, and quality family time. It begins with a serene sunrise by the water, enjoying the soothing sounds of the waves. Afterward, I love sharing a healthy breakfast with my family to set a positive tone for the day.

In the late morning, we either dive into fun water activities or explore local attractions. Whether it’s snorkeling, paddleboarding, or visiting historic sites, we make the most of the day. Shopping is also key, as I love to explore local shops and markets to find unique items and sample local flavors.

As evening approaches, we return to relax before dining at a charming seaside or rooftop restaurant, where we can enjoy a delicious meal while watching the sunset. To end the day, we take a leisurely stroll, reflecting on a day well spent and unwinding into a peaceful evening.

Which destinations or hotels do you go back to again and again? Why?

I would return to the Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris and the San Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four Seasons Hotel in Sicily again for their exceptional service and to relive the cherished memories I’ve made at both properties.

Four Seasons George V is the quintessential Parisian hotel, exuding timeless elegance and charm. The first time we stayed there was over two decades ago for our honeymoon, and it was a truly special experience. Its opulent ambiance, impeccable service, and classic luxury make each visit unforgettable, continually rekindling those beautiful memories.

San Domenico Palace, Taormina’s cliffside perch on the eastern coast of Sicily offers the most breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and Mount Etna. The stunning setting, coupled with outstanding service, provides a serene escape. Whether relaxing by the pool, exploring local culture, or enjoying world-class dining and spa treatments, the property delivers a rejuvenating and memorable stay.
