If there’s one guy in Hollywood you want to bro down with, it may just be Denzel Washington. He seems so down to earth, like a normal dude — but of course, much cooler. If you had your shot at talking to Denzel, you might want to ask where he likes to travel. He’s got good recommendations, as he’s one of the most well-traveled celebs out there.
The Hotel: Il San Pietro di Positano
The Destination: Positano, Italy
Of course, the most well-traveled celebs have been to Italy, and Il San Pietro is one of the most beautiful hotels in the country. The fifty-six room accommodations in the town of Positano have been a destination unto themselves for almost as long as Positano has been in the popular eye. Since 1970, famous people have flocked to the cliffside retreat for a breath of literal fresh air, gorgeous vistas, and relaxation.
The small hotel is luxurious in a very specific, authentic way. Rooms are simple, but decorated with views of the stunning natural landscape. A breakfast of fresh strawberries and black espresso is decidedly refined; the fruit is also super-fresh and well suited to the crisp Italian morning. Guests find that they don’t need much here, which has kept the hotel in popular demand for more than 40 years. For a private getaway with his wife, Denzel keeps it simple, but it’s nonetheless a memorable experience.
The Hotel: Billionaire Resort and Retreat Malindi
The Destination: Kenya
If there’s one thing a creative billionaire knows how to do, it’s design a resort for other billionaires. That’s what F1 legend Flavio Briatore did extremely well. The sixteen suites at the Nairobi Billionaire resort are designed to cater to the kind of people who expect no less than perfection, starting with utter privacy.
Located near Nairobi, Kenya, Malindi is a tropical North African destination with animal sanctuaries and brilliant beaches. The resort is an all-inclusive experience where beachfront living guarantees relaxing mornings, and there are DJ parties all night every night.
The Villa: Cove Castles
The Destination: Anguilla
This one is kind of cheating because Denzel owns a house here. But it only adds to his reputation as the most well-traveled celeb. The Cove Castles villas are undoubtedly some of the the nicest private properties on the island. Tranquil and beautiful Anguilla is a standout among tropical islands. Shoal Bay West is a sandy and quiet luxury residential part. Renting in Cove Castles will get you as close to Denzel as possible. Every residence is unique and located right on the beach, so for a splurge friends trip, Cove Castles is perfect.
