La Belle Vue is a B&B that is a little slice of absolute heaven in the small village of Neffiés in southwestern France. Built in 1857, Swedish couple Yvonne and Micke purchased the home which had so many beautiful details intact – old windows, stucco, tall doors, fireplaces, handmade tiles in fantastic patterns and a view to die for, and transformed it into a glorious getaway.

We’re still in lockdown so I’m dreaming of escaping to….just about anywhere. White Water lodge on Moonstone Beach in Cambria, CA would be an absolutely fabulous getaway. What a stunning location! Designed by Freudenberger Design Studio.

It’s Friday so it must be time for a virtual weekend getaway. In this daydream we’ve reached the new normal, we’re vaccinated and we’re in Tulum, Mexico. I’m not sure how we can fit the thousands and thousands of you in this apartment but hey it’s a daydream. We’ll make it work. First dibs on the bedroom with the dark bathroom! Penthouse Panopea in Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico. Book via Airbnb.

The weather is beautiful here in Ottawa this weekend and we’re in yet another lockdown so to pass the time I’m spending it outside lounging in the backyard and trying to spread the snow piles we have left around the yard so they’ll melt faster. Fellow Canadians I know are laughing at this because WE ALL DO IT. Spring and summer can’t get here fast enough. Anyway, I spotted this beautiful luxury boutique hotel/guest house, Maison de la Luz, located in New Orleans in the portfolio of Studio Shamshiri and had to share. It is sooo unique, sophisticated and elegant. What I would give for a weekend getaway here!

A trip would be SO welcomed right about now. And staying at a hotel this fabulous and quirky and so full of energy in a city as vivacious as Paris would be an incredible adventure (though it may have since closed?). Le Montana designed by the extraordinary Vincent Darre.
