A whole slew of Easter
Four luxury destinations, near or far
Easter time, time for the first warm sun shine and maybe for some hints of summer. Many different destinations and occasions, all exclusive, for the first holidays at the seaside.
A destination in the name of nature and culture could be Saint Paul de Vence, medieval village set in the midst of Provence, cherished by artists and literates such as Prèvert and Chagall. Not far from the town lies the luxury villa St. Paul, one of the super-luxury locations offered by the British Luxury operator Sanctuary Retreats. From the lush park to the swimming-pool, this villa shows a terrace running along the entire length of the property and from which one can enjoy the view of the Côte d’Azur.
Pampered by the services offered by the tour operator, from the sommelier to the yacht charters, it is possible to go on excursions with a private tourist guide.
For a holiday dedicated to relax, we reach the opposite shore of the Mediterranean. In Marrakesh you can find El Miria Palais, a 5-star all Italian resort which doesn’t give up the traditional Moresque-Andalusian style. However very new, the building owns unique historical pieces, among which ancient ceilings, main doors, fountains and an original 400-year old arch of the Merenidi dynasty. A cozy place, with only 10 but spacious rooms, situated in the area of Le Pamleraie, the so called “Palm grove of Marrakesh” not far from La Medina. Here, you can enjoy the outdoor swimming-pool, a sunny jewel during the day but heart of the movida at night; and an exclusive Spa, the only one where you can try the real Moroccan hammam. We talk about the Oriental hammam, where the body is scrubbed with sesame seeds and the Royal Hammam, to be pampered in a traditional way while sipping the typical mint Moroccan tee. Besides a walk along historical and cultural sites, from 10th to 12th April you can also attend the third edition of Jardin’ Art, the international Festival of gardening, where landscape artists and designers will exhibit their creations. It will also be possible to visit the private parks of the city and surroundings, such as the beautiful Menara Gardens, Agdal Gardens, and the French Institute of Culture’s Gardens.
For those who at Easter will take a long and fun trip, Homelidays.it recommends a week in the Dominican Republic, where tourists can enjoy the heavenly resort of Las Terrenas. Here, a 11-person villa will offer the comfort of a huge private swimming-pool surrounded by palms and the opportunity to treat ourselves with wonderful horse-rides or with diving.
A completely different style for the glamorous and cosmopolitan week in New York, at the Le Parker Meridien (Luxury category), located in 56th avenue. For an unforgettable dinner, go to the Masa, one of the most exclusive Manhattan sushi restaurant named after its greatest chef, Masa Takayama. One warning: in order to find a place you should book the first week of the following month, unless you want to spend the evening at the chef counter.
