Borgo San Felice Resort

There’s staying in Tuscany, and then there’s becoming part of it. At Borgo San Felice Resort, a Relais & Châteaux property carved from an entire medieval hamlet, you don’t check in so much as move in. Days revolve around vineyards and stone piazzas; evenings around candlelight and Chianti poured by the people who made it. Meanwhile, cobblestone lanes lead to Michelin-starred dining, a botanical spa, and vineyard views that stretch to the horizon. Every building and every corner feels touched…

But, of course, we couldn’t expect anything less from the people behind Wildflower Farms in the Hudson Valley and Auberge du Soleil in Napa Valley. They know how to create luxury hotels like very few others do. This time around, they chose to turn…

Al Moudira

Of course, the Temple of Luxor was the draw (and a big one) to be in town. But now, there’s a stunner of a hotel that is your next stop in Egypt.
