Travel

Off-the-charts luxury and quaint charm.

Im a summer girl through and through, and if I could put off fall, I would.

Retail therapy and a breezy stroll through a historic city were just what I needed.

The Mall Sanremo

I spent a perfect, sunny 70-degree day (no jacket needed!)

in the Sanremo location, tucked away along the Ligurian coast.

(Theres also an outlet in Tuscany.)

San Remo, Italy

After all, shopping is my sport.

Its the retail centers VIP services and experiences that make it so special.

Sleek and chic, each shop offers the intimacy and elevation youd find on Fifth Avenue.

Sanremo, Italy

The Mall Sanremo is also keenly innovative in the retail space as it offers luxuryexperiencesbeyond shopping.

(I joined a pesto-making demonstration, and lets just say, Im a better shopper than chef.)

In the rapidly changing retail landscape, The Mall Sanremo is unique.

Royal Hotel Sanremo

It has figured out exactly what consumers want: to feel taken care of.

The Mall Sanremo is a treasure trove of luxury shopping.

Its known for its olive oil and flowers.

Royal Hotel Sanremo

(Its literally called the City of Flowers.)

The weather is mild and lovely.

Royals, aristocrats, and famed artists have all taken to Sanremos charm.

Baccara Bistro Bello

Where I Stayed

I stayed at theRoyal Hotel Sanremo, founded in 1872.

Im not a morning person, but I fervently believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Due to its location on the coast, Sanremo is naturally known for its fresh seafood.

Baccara Bistro Bello

Not too sweet, not too creamy, not too coffee-flavored.

The hotels and food are not just Instagram-worthy but also just plain enjoyable.

And dont we all deserve a European getaway, no matter the season?
