What would we do without a gaggle of bikini-clad supermodels, or a billionaire’s daughter’s epic Lake Como wedding? Well, the answer is that life would be a whole lot less interesting. Here’s to the celebs who made our 2025 all the more entertaining.
Tom Brady (and his son Benjamin)
Destination in 2025: St. Tropez, France
Where they stayed: Hôtel Byblos, Saint‑Tropez
Tom Brady made headlines in 2025 when he touched down in St. Tropez with his son Benjamin for a father‑son summer escape. They checked into Hôtel Byblos — the Riviera’s most iconic celebrity hideaway. Their days were a mix of yacht outings, poolside lunches at Cucina, and low‑key strolls through the old port. Brady kept things relaxed and polished, while Benjamin turned into a mini‑style star in his own right. Between the sunshine, the superyachts, and the unmistakable Byblos glamour, the trip became one of the most enviable celebrity getaways of the year.
Taylor Swift
Destination in 2025: Lake Como, Italy
Where she stayed: Villa Sola Cabiati (Grand Hotel Tremezzo’s private villa)
Taylor turned Lake Como into the world’s most glamorous hideaway again, slipping into a neoclassical villa that looks like it was built for a modern‑day duchess. Private boat rides, candlelit terraces, and a villa staff that could rival a five‑star hotel — Swifties immediately added Como to their bucket lists.
Kendall Jenner
Destination in 2025: Mustique
Where she stayed: Palm Beach Villa
Kendall Jenner rang in her 30th birthday exactly the way the world’s highest‑paid supermodel should. On Mustique, at Palm Beach Villa, the $125,000‑a‑week Tommy Hilfiger–owned estate beloved by royals and rockstars. The villa is everything you would imagine for this event: coral‑stone architecture, infinity pools, and sweeping views over L’Ansecoy Bay. Kim, Khloé, Kylie, Kris, and longtime friends like Hailey and Justin Bieber all flew in for the intimate celebration. Needless to say, the vibe was laid‑back, but impossibly chic. Mustique’s no‑paparazzi, private‑island serenity made it the ultimate place to toast a milestone birthday in true supermodel style.
George & Amal Clooney
Destination in 2025: Provence, France
Where they stayed: Their private estate, Domaine du Canadel
The Clooneys traded Lake Como for lavender fields this year, hosting friends at their sprawling Provençal estate. Think rosé lunches, olive‑grove strolls, and the kind of understated European glamour only Amal can pull off.
Beyoncé & Jay‑Z
Destination in 2025: Maldives
Where they stayed: Soneva Jani
The Carters chose the Maldives for a post‑tour reset, checking into an overwater villa with a retractable roof for stargazing. Private slides into the lagoon, yacht‑side dinners, and a spa menu that reads like poetry.
Rihanna & A$AP Rocky
Destination in 2025: Paris, France
Where they stayed: Cheval Blanc Paris
Rihanna turned Paris Fashion Week into a family vacation, checking into Cheval Blanc — the only hotel chic enough to match her energy. Rooftop dinners, couture fittings, and stroller‑friendly Seine walks made it the most stylish family trip of the year.
Leonardo DiCaprio
Destination in 2025: Costa Rica
Where he stayed: Four Seasons Peninsula Papagayo
Leo returned to his eco‑luxury roots, surfing at sunrise and dining on plant‑forward tasting menus. The Four Seasons’ private‑peninsula setting gave him the anonymity he loves — plus enough wildlife encounters to keep him happy.
David & Victoria Beckham
Destination in 2025: Courchevel, France
Where they stayed: Cheval Blanc Courchevel
The Beckhams hit the Alps in full glamour mode. Victoria’s après‑ski looks dominated social feeds, while David perfected the art of chalet‑side hot chocolate. Cheval Blanc’s ski‑in/ski‑out suites made it the chicest winter trip of the year.
Sabrina Carpenter
Destination in 2025: Paris
Where she stayed: Hôtel Costes
Sabrina Carpenter lit up Paris in 2025, turning Fashion Week into her own personal stage. She checked into Hôtel Costes — the moody, rose‑scented hideaway beloved by designers, models, and musicians — and was spotted slipping out for fittings, late‑night dinners, and strolls through the 1st arrondissement. Between front‑row appearances and viral street‑style moments, Sabrina made Paris feel like the only place that mattered this season, cementing her status as pop’s reigning “it girl.”
