Le Taha’a Island Resort & Spa
Le Taha’a Island Resort & Spa, French Polynesia
“Had a wonderful three-night stay at Le Taha’a last week, booked through AH. Received an upgrade and late checkout, a complimentary bottle of Taittinger and lovely massages. The staff is excellent and the overwater bungalows are gorgeous. The snorkeling in the coral garden was world-class, and even the food, which I had read mixed reviews of, was quite good. We took a private trip to the pearl farm on Tahaa and I came back with a stunning string of pearls. The only downside was that we couldn’t stay longer. Next time!”
“After three nights at the San Régis, my husband and I could not have been more pleased with the staff and their wonderful attentiveness and service. They were so helpful with any type of request, and even those we hadn’t thought of yet. It is truly an exceptional hotel in a wonderful location, and the suites are so quiet and luxurious! We are anxious to return to Paris and the many offerings of the San Régis.”
The Romanos, Costa Navarino, Greece
“Recently stayed at The Romanos and would rate it 95 out of 100. The resort is exquisite … probably one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve seen. All of the restaurants have very good food (we dined in all except the American Diner, which was not appealing to our American family visiting Greece!). We found the service to be exceptional and enjoyed the breathtaking views and décor. It’s very family-friendly, but still upscale enough to please the parents! The area is lovely and interesting for sightseeing, having a simple meal in town and exploring. Note that we drove from Athens airport and most of the three-hour ride was scenic and enjoyable. This is definitely one of the top hotels in Greece.”
“I can only hope to go to Heaven and be as happy there as I am whenever I’m at Splendido! I’ve been fortunate to see many places so far in my lifetime, but each year I’m lucky enough to return here. I still stand on my terrace each evening marveling at the view and the lights on Monte Portofino. It never bores me. The staff is delightful. As I’ve heard some say, and I would agree, Antonio, their head barman of 41 years, is Splendido’s 6th star.”
Mombo & Little Mombo Camp, Botswana
“I stayed at Little Mombo last year, and my partner and I both agree it was probably the best travel experience of our lives. Everything about the property is spectacular, but really it’s the location that takes this from being just another great safari camp to out-of-this-world amazing. When we describe our game drives and experiences to other people, I even have to admit we sound like we’re making it all up. We thought our trip to southern Africa was going to be a once-in-a-lifetime trip, but we loved it so much that we’re going back to Botswana and Little Mombo again next year (and adding Zarafa Camp this time around, as well as several camps in Namibia).”
Hotel ABac-Barcelona
We spent three nights here and were quite pleased . It is a Hideaway Hotel located 10 minutes from the bustle of Barcelona. There was a 2 star Michelin restaurant on the premises and it was outstanding. The staff was wonderful, we got upgraded (we had a terrace), a wonderful difference from being in the central city. I would recommend for anyone who is traveling to this wonderful city.
