Last year I featured the San Miguel de Allende home of Jorge Almada and A-M Midy of Casamidy, that they offer for weekly rentals, and when I stumbled upon their website recently I noticed this gorgeous home located in Saint Paul de Vence, France they also offer for rent. What an absolute dream place for a vacation – the interior is gorgeous and the views are to die for!
Through this project, THDP’s desire is to create the perfect haven for the curious travelers that want to dive deep into the secrets of one of the most fascinating cities in the world. By restoring these apartments, THDP have created a luxury space to live when visiting Rome; a serene yet enchanting space to unwind after long days of exploring. The three places of intervention are distributed in 3 areas that differ from each other for history and day/night life. The first one (third below), Trastevere is a Young Rome, famous for its nightlife, especially outdoors. The alleys, the fountains, and the clothes hanging outside frame a fresh, sparkling and vital life, and here magic is born. The second one is the monumental Ancient Rome, situated really close to the Colosseum and watershed between 3 of the seven hills, Esquilino, Colle Oppio and Celio. The third one (first below) is Noble Rome, the Rome of palaces, antique dealers and art galleries. An elegant Rome that, when viewed from the windows and terraces, opens up the perspectives to an exclusive and opulent dimension.
If I had a month to be able to travel, and the destination be Rome, how I would loooooove to stay in one of these 27 luxury short term rental apartments. They are the perfect blend of minimal furnishings, doses of colour and modern vibes to make you feel like the coolest person chillin’ in Italy.
It’s like I say week in week out. If you have to drag yourself to work on a weekend it helps if it’s somewhere stylish. Hotel Flora by Gert Voorjans.
Casa Soleto offers a truly authentic experience of the village life in the heart of Salento, Puglia. The noble palazzotto has been lovingly restored by Studio Andrew Trotter and Marcelo Martínez. They took time with the renovation to carefully preserve the historic features of the house, while bringing it into the twenty-first century. Having kept most of the original floors, the nonna’s kitchen or the internal doors (two of them being 300 years old), Casa Soleto has all the charm and character you would expect of a house from the seventeenth century. This is a truly authentic experience. A haven to relax during your trip. A barefoot luxury.
This minimal vacation home is an absolute minimalistic dream. And a study in wonder of lime plaster. Those arches and the architectural detail in the dining room are sooooooo pretty.
L’Étoile des Baux is one of the homes forming Iconic House, that combines the best of the hotel industry and holiday rentals for the ultra-luxury market.
