As I begin my summer filled with travel, amazing hotels have been swirling around in my mind.

Villa Campestri Olive Oil Resort
Tuscany, Italy

If anyone knows me, they understand the depth of my love for olive oil.  Not only do I use it in the kitchen, but it’s a fantastic moisturizer.  Just ask Sophia Loren!

Being in the fresh country side of Tuscany, surrounded by lush beauty within an olive oil resort is such a sensory experience, like a little piece of heaven.

Palazza Barbarigo
Venice, Italy

So sexy.  So urban.  So Chic.
The rooms are designed in boudoir glam and when you’re staying in this intimate 16th century Venetian hotel overlooking the canals, you instantly feel like you’re Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

HERODS Hotel
Tel Aviv

Right on the beach, Herods takes you back to 1930’s Tel Aviv, where east meets west.  To me, the cool and laid back vibe always makes me feel like Elvis could be anywhere in the building.

Melenos Lindos Hotel
Rhodes, Greece

Melenos Lindos is quintessential Greece, full of relaxation, enchanted luxury and crystal clear blue waters.  Located next to the Acropolis in the tiny town of Lindos, you will literally need a donkey to help you carry your luggage up to your exquisitely detailed room.

Ngorongoro Crater Lodge
Tanzania

Where exclusive luxury meets the African Wild.  Talk about being one with nature, surrounded by over 25,000 animals.  This is safari gone glam at its best.

Ngorongoro Crater is often referred to as the 8th World Wonder.

I’m already relaxed and ready for my vacation!  What exciting places are you off to this summer?
