But while thousands of music lovers come here every year to dance and party like there is no tomorrow, many visitors come to the island to connect with nature and to experience its laid-back, Bohemian atmosphere. Beyond the dance beats and beaches, tucked away on the peaceful northern tip of Ibiza, lies a place where you can step back from the demands of everyday life, re-energize and reset.  Its location, Cala Xarraca, is a secluded slice of paradise, surrounded by lush green pine forests dotted with white houses, rugged red cliffs, and rocky pathways. Six Senses Ibiza is a…

So many of us are in search of it, whether it be taking a moment to enjoy an al fresco coffee on a sunny day, sitting down to a candlelight dinner for two, or escaping on an extravagant holiday with no luxury spared. And there is no better time to pursue La Dolce Vita than in the summer when long days and balmy temperatures make the search for happiness so much easier to fulfill. But the summer is not the only ingredient you need. Location is everything, and of all the places I have traveled to in search of the good life, Italy's Amalfi Coast fits the bill like none other.

For many, its allure is probably linked to a collective imagination in which the stories of the “Thousand and One Nights” from childhood memories are interwoven. For others, it is the place that captures all the senses, seduces you with its intimate charms, strikes you with its shimmering colors and the intoxicating fragrance of spices that fill the air, and transports you with the chanting of the daily Muslim call to prayer and keeps you coming back for more.   The legendary fashion designer Yves St Laurent considered Marrakech the “Venice of Morocco, a place out of time”. H…

Formentera’s allure lies in its unique beauty, a blend of simplicity, peace, and harmony with nature. With unspoiled landscapes, sun-kissed paths, and crystalline waters, the island beckons soul-seekers to reconnect with nature and their inner selves. “Small islands are geographically pleasing, appealing to a human disposition towards ‘containedness.' It is possible to visualize, in satisfying detail, the coastline of an island, to know where it begins and ends, to picture where you are spatially at a given point in time.” Pam Allen There are no airports here. No sprawling resort…

So let's get all romantic and look at some of the world's most romantic destinations to tie the knot for a gay wedding. The power of love is that it sees all people. San Francisco, Califo…

Too often, Marbella, the glitzy enclave of the Costa del Sol, is looked upon as a jet-setter's paradise, confused for the superficial attractions of yacht-filled, boutique-lined Puerto Banus. Yet Puerto Banus, constructed from scratch by José Banús in the 1970s, is but one new addition to the ever-sprawling suburbs of this renowned town in Southern Spain. Attracting party-goers from around the world and even inspiring a “Marbella Sessions” soundtrack from the famous Ministry of Sound, Marbella is quickly gaining a reputation akin to the party paradise of Ibiza and Magaluf. Yet that reputat…

This c. With striking scenery and captivating wildlife, only a handful of experiences are on par with an African safari. But Africa is not a country; it's a continent made up of 54 culturally and geographically diverse countries with different climates and offering different experiences. Whether you are planning your next vacation or your honeymoon, the most critical decision you'll need to make is where to go. While African safaris can generally be broken down into three seasons: the dry season (June to October), the mixed season (November to March), and the wet season (March to May)…

As the way we work continues to evolve, more professionals are embracing the concept of workation.  It's the sweet spot where business meets pleasure: taking your work on the road, settling into a beautiful destination, and getting things done without missing out on life. Whether it's answering emails from a beachside café, joining Zoom calls with a view of the mountains, or tackling your to-do list between dips in the ocean — a workation is about breaking the routine and reigniting inspiration. It's not about slacking off; it's about working smarter from a place that fuels your…

Falling in love with a city or place is like falling in love with a lover; it can be love at first sight or can evolve over time. While my love for New York was like that undefinable connection that strikes you like a flash of lightning and instantly feels like ‘coming home”, Miami snuck its way slowly into my heart. Maybe it was the blend of fast-paced city life and tropical, relaxed atmosphere, its colorful cultural palette, and the way diversity is embraced that got me, but it was not until my last visit that I realized I was in love with this city. With so much diversity running throug…
