Cinque Terre can be found on a gorgeous stretch of the Italian Riviera. Close to the lapping waves, you'll find pastel buildings seemingly climbing the rocky cliffside. This vibrant block of color is made up of five distinct villages, each with a slightly different flavor. If you're exploring the region, you can easily visit them all by train or by hiking – but if you want to explore them in the morning or evening when it's not so crowded, you should choose one to spend the night in. To do that, consider what you're most excited about doing, seeing, tasting, and experiencing on your trip.

The Best Village To Stay In Italy's Cinque Terre Based On What You Want

 With its pastel-painted charming villas built into the cliffside, Instagram-worthy coastal beaches and face-contortingly sharp yet sweet locally-made lemon sorbet, it’s no wonder that the jewel in Italy’s crown, the Amalfi Coast, attracts around five million tourists a year.The quaint way of life and culture is protected here in a way you won’t find in other tourist spots around the world. Italian cuisine reigns supreme (you won’t find any chain restaurants or takeaways) and the lives of locals are woven into the fabric of daily life — nonnas hang their washing out over the cliffs and old Italian men...

We might be nearing September, but summer doesn’t have to end – especially if you’re blonde. Salons are gearing up for the transitional period by swapping out light tones for warm, natural shades. The result? The sunny, buttery hues of Balearic blonde. What Is Balearic Blonde?. ‘Balearic...

Over the past few years, even the most ardent Tuscany fanatic may have felt their enthusiasm dim a little. Sure, the Italian region best known as the birthplace of the Renaissance still boasts the same wonders it always has—treasures of art history, hearty pasta dinners, glorious summer weather, and those iconic streets lined with cypress trees—but post-pandemic, not only has “revenge travel” seen the area near-overwhelmed with tourists, but hotel prices have skyrocketed to eyewatering figures. Slowly but surely, the more savvy traveler has begun to turn their gaze elsewhere.

As Alfalfa in the classic Our Gang/Little Rascals comedic feature film shorts-turned-TV-series, former child star Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer brought to the screen his unique brand of humor, coupled with an unmelodic voice, freckles, and a protruding hair cowlick. The Gang/Rascals franchise was later rebooted on the big screen with a cast of new young stars.

If you're planning a Greek vacation, it's a pretty good bet that you're going to be visiting Santorini. In 2023, there were 3.4 million visitors to the small island with a population of only around 20,000. Cruise ships bring in around 17,000 passengers a day to Santorini. That means, if you want to see the famous Santorini sunset from the town of Oia, you're going to be packed in with tons of other people (as you can see in the pic below), and even worse, you could be waiting hours to get a ferry from the ship and more time to take a chair lift to the city. It's gotten bad enough on Santorini with overcrowding from cruise ships that some cruise lines are canceling planned stops, meaning that, even if you've booked a cruise there, you still might not see it.

One man’s error is another man’s Titanic! In an unforeseeable catastrophe, an affluent group fell prey to a terrifying moment when their stunning Italian superyacht sank near an idyllic Greek holiday island. The weather turned, leaving the crew with little time to close the door. This misstep—leaving a side door open—resulted in the sinking of the 150-foot megayacht ‘Ethos.’

A dream superyacht charter turned into a nightmare when a crew member left a door open, eventually sinking the $55 million vessel. An affluent group had rented the 150-footer for $180,000 a week in Greece.

Perched on the banks of the Thames, directly opposite Hampton Court, is The Mitre, a boutique hotel bursting with charm. Martha Davies checks in for a dog-friendly stay. Dogs don’t tend to come with hotel bookings, so it’s always advisable to bring your own. When you’re able to, of course – sneaking your dog into your suite isn’t recommended – meaning dog-friendly hotels are the way to go. This, at least, is how I found myself enjoying a particularly wonderful stay at The Mitre, accompanied by a good friend and her golden retriever, Otis (the star of the show by all accounts).
