European escapes
Why travel too far in the summer when the variety and beauty of Europe is so close on your doorstop and is begging to be explored. From the islands of Greece, to the gorgeous views of the Amalfi Coast, there are countless coastal retreats to escape to. Europe is all about amazing sophistication, food, wine, a dash of history and culture; take Tuscany and the chance to sip Chianti as the sun sets over the idyllic countryside. Nothing quite sums the Adriatic Coast like the Aman Sveti Stefan, simply wonderful at blending old world nostalgia with staggering levels of luxury and refinement.
