For us luxury is a freshly squeezed orange juice overlooking the Amalfi Coast. During our honeymoon we stayed at a tiny family owned hotel that had no swimming pool, no room service and no amenities. But we had a very private dock to sunbathe and we could jump into the see whenever we wanted. And the waiter knew how we liked our orange juice. And that P. loves a very cold glass of White wine during dinner. This little secret hotel of ours was located in a tiny village and had the best restaurant we’ve ever been to, even though they didn’t have a proper menu. Everything in this hotel was simply charming and authentic. One afternoon we decided to dress up and go for a cocktail at the swimming pool bar of Le Sirenuse hotel, in the nearby town of Positano. I used to dream about this hotel! We had a very lovely time but we came back to our tiny hotel happy to have chosen privacy, quiet and a more relaxed atmosphere over the explicit luxury that Le Sirenuse offers.
For luxury comes sometimes disguised as a simple orange juice.
