Monaco – What this destination lacks in size, it makes up for in reputation. Join the fairy-tale glamour of this principality with our footage of this spectacular destination.
Fabulously wealthy and gilded by history, the Principality of #Monaco lies on the French Riviera in Western Europe. Smaller than New York’s Central Park, this graceful destination is bordered by France and the sparkling Mediterranean sea.
With ancient streets full of exotic cars, a natural harbor filled with superyachts, and a glittering royal legacy, Monaco is a tiny relic of medieval Europe that has made itself at home in the 21st century. It draws the rich, the famous, and those seeking the kind of lifestyle usually only found on the silver screen. A #vacation to Monaco is one to remember!
The Principality of Monaco and it’s famous Rock have something to dream about and it is real.
The prestige and reputation of this attractive territory extend well beyond its borders. For the moment, we drop our luggage and enter one of the flagship hotels of the Société Bains des Mer, the Hotel Hermitage Monte Carlo. It is one of the most intimate palaces of the Principality.
The establishment is home to no less than 278 rooms, 76 suites and junior suites as well as 12 Monte Carlo Diamond suites. And with all self-respecting palaces, the Vistamar and its chef, offer us an explosive taste of flavors. A quick two-minute walk is all that’s needed to be face to face with the Monte-Carlo pavilions. Here, the most prestigious brands have their showcase, whether it’s haute couture, timepieces, or jewelry. The nerve center of the Principality, the Place du Casino is surrounded by 3 mythical buildings: the Hotel de Paris, the Café de Paris, and the Monte-Carlo Casino. Between exploring the sea depths or walking along the Champions Promenade, there is always something to do. On the way, we stop off at Loona. A very young ready-to-wear boutique that wants to stand out from the others. Among the VIP clients of the brand, model, actress, and TV personality Victoria Silvstedt. The Swedish beauty spent some time shopping here before heading to a photo shoot at the Sporting Monte-Carlo. A little higher up, on rue de Portier, we arrive at Sensais for our first gourmet pause of the day. Jean-Pierre Escande, the owner, is waiting for us, with the idea of having us discover new flavors. The concept is simple, rediscover the real taste of seasonal products. Between this square sesame bread, Italian cuttlefish salad with local citrus fruits, as a starter, and this Piedmontese potato as large gnocchi, comté cheese slices, roasted porcini mushrooms in Madeira and Catalan Picada, spread over two dishes, all our senses were awakened. There are, however, no seasons when it comes to real estate. In Monaco, in summer or winter, the demand for real estate is incessant and apartments are sold at prices that are sometimes… surreal. It is on the 42nd floor of the Odeon Tower, the most luxurious and the highest high rise in Monaco, that we find Angela Kleiber and 2 members of her team. According to the owner of Lorenza von Stein Agency, real estate in Monaco still has many beautiful days ahead.
