The specificity makes sense-when was the last time a cruise ship could boast an average guest room size of 581 square feet? Or a bar with églomisé cocktail tables, each one crafted in London and commissioned by AD100 firm MBDS?

The Sundays Poolside lounge chair is an elevated yet casual place to spend your time outside. The weather-resistant fabric sling seat has plenty of give, especially in the supportive arms.

"I fell in love with the elegance of the yacht and with the idea of [it] feeling lively and vibrant, like a natural extension of the destinations Ilma sails through."

On November 10, 1943, the city of Recco was destroyed forever. Twenty-two bombers of the British Royal Air Force dropped 33 tons of explosives, attempting to demolish the railway bridge, an iconic element of the town and a crucial point for the supply of Nazi-fascist troops.

"I think Marbella is a little misunderstood and is often viewed as simply an ostentatious resort destination. It is still an authentic coastal town, and it's one of few places on the Spanish peninsula where you can experience so much diversity and vibrancy year-round."

Villa Lyla is a private estate that explores proportion, layered forms, and a grounded relationship to its landscape within a tropical setting. The home presents a peaceful retreat on the canal water's edge, balancing formal rigour with a relaxed, climate-conscious approach to living.

With this season, we wanted to capture the feeling of being in the Mediterranean-the light, the energy, the colors of the coast. Travel, for me, has always been about the memories you create along the way, the moments that stay with you long after the trip ends. When designing this collection, we focused on translating that experience into the product itself, creating pieces that connect the spirit of the destination with the journeys our customers take.

This contemporary residence offers a clean look with wire-brushed wood floors, LED lighting and a modern kitchen with a tiled backsplash and custom cabinetry. A glass-enclosed staircase leads up three floors to a private rooftop deck plumbed for a gas barbecue and a spa.

Villa Lava is a private residence located in Santa Tecla, in the province of Acireale, on the eastern coast of Sicily. The project is a unique architectural blend of two houses in one single villa. On one side stands an old fisherman's house dating from around 1900, completely restored by Nábito Architects, maintaining its essential character and carefully uncovering and preserving the original lava stone vaults.

Perched 39 floors above LA, with spectacular views of the local country club and Pacific Ocean beyond it, this Beverly Hills Penthouse by The Scale Collective prioritizes sanctuary over spectacle through deliberate material choices. Beauty entrepreneur Darya Pishevar cited Pierre Paulin's Pumpkin Chair as an early reference - a telling detail that moved the project away from typical high-rise polish toward something more grounded.

Albury Landing is a nine-bedroom estate located just 90 minutes south of Miami. The design-forward compound, available only for full buyouts, is spread across five coastal-chic structures: a four-bedroom main house, three standalone one-bedroom villas, and a two-bedroom residence, which, together, can accommodate up to 18 guests.

For the traveler who finds romance in a curved wall, chases good lighting, and believes a space should quietly seduce, a good design-led vacation rental is the destination as much as the location around it. These are homes chosen for how they look, feel, and linger in our memory-where architecture, interiors, and setting shape the experience of travel itself. Across the sun-washed corners of Italy, Spain, Portugal, and beyond, today's most compelling rentals are as

George Washington Smith, widely regarded as the founder of the Spanish Colonial Revival style, designed scores of houses in and around Santa Barbara during an architectural career that lasted only a dozen years before his death in 1930. Today those houses, with their signature mix of whitewashed walls, red-tiled roofs, balconies, courtyards, fountains, elaborate carved woodwork and wrought iron, are keenly sought after, according to area real estate agents.

People say, 'It's the most Instagrammed house in the world.' About 150,000 photos the last time we checked. That story, Galan says, helped launched an invasion; the home has been besieged by TV and film crews, tourists, art students, architects, wedding parties and a parade of selfie sticks.
