This was my experience at the Anantara Villa Padierna Palace, a Mediterranean marvel where luxury and relaxation go hand in hand– and where a crisp white wine tastes better than ever. Plus with plenty of on-site restaurant choices, including one that reminded me of a location from the Romeo and Juliet movie, you could check in for a long weekend and not even feel the need to leave.
