From Rome & Capri 
to Provence

From the sea, Capri’s dramatic coastline comes into view, along with its cliffs, caves, and, if the light is right, glimpses of vineyards and gardens. Famous worldwide, Capri has long drawn the world’s elite to its shores—Rilke, Wilde, Cocteaau, Taylor, and Kennedy, to name a few.
Capri captivates like a magnet. Perhaps it’s the shimmering blue of the Grotta Azzurra, or the piazzetta, with whitewashed houses and luxury boutiques where people-watching becomes art. Maybe it’s the iconic Malaparte villa or the charming village of Anacapri, which offered refuge to literary figures like Moravia and Greene.
There are countless reasons to fall in love with Capri. Yours will be one of them.

Once a modest fishing village nestled among Sardinia’s rugged northern coastline, Porto Cervo was transformed in the 1960s by Prince Karim Aga Khan IV. Enchanted by the breathtaking beaches and crystal-clear waters of Costa Smeralda, he set out to create an exclusive luxury haven that would captivate the world’s elite. His vision succeeded brilliantly.
Today, Porto Cervo is synonymous with glamour. Its marina gleams with some of the most magnificent yachts, owned by football stars, celebrities, and captains of industry who make Porto Cervo their Mediterranean playground. The town itself offers an array of high-end boutiques, gourmet restaurants, and vibrant nightlife, seamlessly blending luxury and laid-back Mediterranean charm.

Often described as bold and full of life, Marseille embraces its vibrant spirit and unapologetic energy. As France’s oldest and second-largest city, it doesn’t just belong to the South—it is the South: a vibrant mix of aioli, pastis, and navettes, carried by the mistral, and watched over by the iconic Bonne Mère*. In its neighborhoods— from Le Panier to Mazargues, from La Pointe Rouge to La Castellane—people discuss a bit of politics, a lot of rap, and are an undeniable passionate about football.
Yet to truly feel its pulse, you must soak in the salty air of La Canebière and the Old Port, stroll down Le Prado, marvel at the MuCEM by the sea. Look out to Château d’If, imagining The Count of Monte Cristo… Explore the Calanques, be inspired by Le Corbusier’s Radiant City, or discover Vauban’s grand fortifications. Marseille is an ancient ever-changing mosaic of cultures, revealing itself only to those who follow its rhythm.
