One of Lake Como’s most iconic luxury hotels has a history dating back to 1568. 🇮🇹

Villa d’Este was originally built as a summer residence for Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio. In 1815, Caroline of Brunswick, Princess of Wales and future Queen of England, acquired the property and gave it the name Villa d’Este.

In 1873, the historic residence was transformed into a luxury hotel, welcoming travelers to experience its timeless Italian elegance.

Today, Villa d’Este is known for its grand architecture, beautifully landscaped gardens, and breathtaking views of Lake Como. Walking through the grounds feels like stepping into another era.

For anyone dreaming of a luxury Italy getaway, this is a property worth knowing about.

Save this for your Lake Como travel inspiration, and DM me if you’re ready to start planning your own Italian escape.

A little behind-the-scenes reality from a travel advisor trying to capture the perfect shot 😅

The sunrise was real. The robe was real. The coffee? Completely empty.

I had my husband film me sitting on the balcony in my robe, taking in the sunrise and enjoying my morning coffee… or at least that’s what the video makes it look like ☕️

Just a reminder that sometimes those beautiful travel moments you see online are also a little bit of “we need to get the shot” type of moment 😉

And yes, I eventually went and had some actual coffee.

Instagram vs. reality… 👀

The Acropolis is incredible. But here’s the part you don’t always see in the perfectly framed travel photos: you’re probably not going to have it to yourself.

The Acropolis is one of the most visited sites in Athens, and for good reason. Everyone wants to see the Parthenon, walk through this incredible piece of ancient history, and take that photo.

But when I was there, I noticed something else that caught my attention: the Porch of the Caryatids the six sculpted female figures that support the porch of the Erechtheion.

I thought they were fascinating. And while everyone else seemed focused on moving toward the most famous sights, I found myself wanting to stop and appreciate this part of the site too.

And honestly, that’s one of my favorite things about traveling.
Yes, see the iconic sights. But also look around. Sometimes the things that aren’t at the top of everyone’s must-see list end up being the moments you remember most.

A few things I recommend when visiting major attractions like the Acropolis:

• Go as early as you can, especially during peak summer months.
• Consider a private or small-group tour so you can have more context and a better flow through the site.
• Don’t rush from one famous landmark to the next. Give yourself time to actually look around.

Because sometimes the best travel moments happen when you stop following the crowd. ✨

Would you rather visit the famous sights even if they’re crowded, or look for the lesser-seen parts of a destination?

Why Passalacqua Is on Every Luxury Traveler’s List? 🇮🇹✨

I’d seen the photos. I’d heard all about it. And after finally visiting Passalacqua in person, I can honestly say… nothing quite compares.

Tucked away on the shores of Lake Como, Passalacqua is one of those places that is even more beautiful when you’re actually standing there.

From the historic villa and beautifully designed rooms to the gardens, lake views, and attention to detail, every part of the property feels incredibly special. It’s elegant and luxurious, but still feels intimate and personal rather than like a traditional grand hotel.

And the setting? Absolutely unforgettable💛🧡

Passalacqua is part of the Passalacqua family of properties and is one of the most sought-after stays on Lake Como. With just a limited number of rooms and suites, it has a very private, exclusive feel.

And one of the best parts? When you book your stay through Vibrant Sun Travels (me) I can add some extra amenities and VIP perks including things like:

-Complimentary Breakfast for two
-$100 in resort credit
-Early check-in and late check-out upon availability
-Room Upgrade upon availability

If Lake Como is on your bucket list and you’re dreaming about a stay somewhere truly special, I’d love to help you plan it.
