Y A O N O I // Just booked—last stop of an incredible honeymoon itinerary!

It’s impossible to capture the pure beauty of in a photo, but trust when we say it is magical. This property sets the highest benchmark for island resort living in Asia. The iconic limestone pinnacles rising from the waters of Phang Nga Bay create a surreal backdrop and a sense of privacy and adventure while Pool Villa accommodations provide generous space to relax and soak up the stunning views.

P R O C I D A // Meet the hidden gem of the Amalfi Coast!

At two square miles, Procida is the tiniest island in the Campanian Archipelago and possibly the most picturesque, with pastel-hued fishing villages and small ports. Procida offers scenic stretches of sand like Chiaia and Chiaiolella unlike Ischia and Capri that have fewer beaches and more rock promontories. Another plus, the entire island is walkable.

Located in Southeast Asia, the country is known for its beautiful beaches and warm hospitality. If you could only visit one island among the 7,100+ you could choose from, Palawan is it. It is RTT’s most favorite place in the country. It is heaven on earth. And when you go, there’s no better place than the exquisite .

Amanpulo (which means “peaceful island”) is set on a secluded, private island of Pamalican, one of nearly 1,800 islands in Palawan. The water and the views are simply sublime. Lovebirds and families flock here for the remoteness and the lavish yet discreet service, hallmarks of an outstanding retreat.

RTT benefits include:
- Daily breakfast
- $100 food and beverage credit
- VIP status
- Extended check in and check out, if available
- Room upgrade, if available

M A R R A K E C H // This week’s destination highlight is a good one! Marrakech! The city has attracted visitors for nearly a millennium. It first grew rich from camel caravans that brought gold and salt from the Sahara Desert, but today its lifeblood is tourism. Travelers come seeking the street performers in the historic Djemaa el-Fna square, the winding alleys of the centuries-old medina, and the endless array of handicrafts. In between cultural excursions, they recharge in a boutique riad and discover the rich spices of Moroccan cuisine. And the Berber carpet of your dreams is just a haggle and a glass of mint tea away. 🖊:

R U S S I A N R I V E R V A L L E Y // For this week’s destination highlight, we are staying close to home—Russian River Valley in Sonoma County. Located 55 miles north of San Francisco, this wine region is known for its acclaimed Pinot Noir thanks to its remarkable climate and growing conditions.

Filled with vineyards, rolling hills, redwood groves and bountiful land, there are many adventures to be had.

Our faves:
🛏 Stay at the Farmhouse Inn
🌲 Hike through the redwoods at Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve in Guerneville
🛍 Stroll through The Barlow in Sebastopol for local wine, breweries, artisans and restaurants

M E X I C O C I T Y // Las Alcobas offers warm hospitality in an upscale, urban setting. Its enviable location along Masaryk Avenue, in the heart of Polanco, the city’s chicest district, is reason enough to stay. Add thoughtful touches, such as welcome refreshments and the services of a personal host, and you’ll never want to leave.

M E X I C O C I T Y // Each week, RTT will be highlighting a destination. It only makes sense to highlight CDMX (Ciudad de Mexico) after our wonderful visit.

Airport: MEX (4 hours from SFO; 5 hours from JFK)

Notable facts:
1. Mexico was named after Mexico City.
2. Mexico City is most populous metropolis in North America at 21.8 million. 
3. Mexico City is in the mountains, sitting at over 7300 feet above sea level.
4. The Aztecs built the original city in the middle of a lake so it looked like Venice and Amsterdam at one point. The Spanish drained the lake to control flooding and expanded the city into new land.
5. Mexico City is currently sinking into the lake bed’s clay by as much as 20 inches per year as the city extracts water from the underground aquifer.

Perfect for: Couples, groups and families looking for a cultural and gastronomic experience

We highly recommend. Reach out to RTT to learn more!

S E R E N G E T I // The Serengeti is the largest national park in Tanzania, with a staggering animal population of almost four million. It is the largest wildlife sanctuary in the world and the site of one of the most breathtaking events in animal kingdom—the migration of more than 1.5 million wildebeest and another 400,000 zebras.

Discovering the Serengeti with Singita is an RTT favorite. Singita offers the ultimate luxury safari experience with its exceptionally consistent game viewing, warm-hearted hospitality, bespoke interiors and the finest African cuisine. Ideally positioned on the renowned migratory route, Singita’s lodges and camps in the region (as pictured) include:

Serengeti House
Faru Faru Lodge

Sasakwa Lodge
Sabora Tented Camp

D O U R O V A L L E Y // Portugal has become popular in the last few years but it’s still relatively underrated compared to its neighboring countries. It has so much to offer for any type of traveler.

For an eco-conscious trip to wine country, look no farther than Six Senses Douro Valley. Localness, freshness, and quality go into its cultivation of wine, food, and overall well-being. Go canoeing, kayaking, and tree climbing; or get grounded with yogic detox programs and an alchemy bar for blending body treatments. The grape is sovereign here, with a wine library for tastings and an extensive cellar. The Vale de Abraão Restaurant uses produce from the organic garden. Discover citrus-based spa treatments, or take a river cruise, or a helicopter tour to fully absorb the Douro.

Clients are currently staying here and loving every second of it. Reach out to learn more!

F L O R E N C E // Portrait Firenze is a 37 all-suite property in the heart of the city that overlooks the Arno River and the iconic Ponte Vecchio, a few steps away from Uffizi Gallery and Piazza della Signoria.

Owned by the Ferragamo family, Portrait Firenze focuses on bespoke hospitality. It’s all about personalization from the moment you book your stay until you leave. The concept is a tribute to Salvatore Ferragamo’s legacy - his fame began in 1930s while making beautiful custom shoes for prominent Hollywood stars. The goal is to provide a similar high-touch, personalized and custom experience to hotel guests the same way Ferragamo did for his clients.

O R V I E T O // Umbria, the green heart of Italy, is characterized by its medieval hill towns, gorgeous landscapes and culinary delights specifically black truffles. It is lesser known (and lesser travelled) than its neighboring region, Tuscany, but it’s as worthy of a visit in our opinion.

It is home to our favorite hill town, Orvieto. Located right off the autostrada between Florence and Rome, this charming town is hard to miss and should definitely be on your list.

The location was previously the company’s workshop headquarters. Today, the Accademia is an academic center that focuses on the history, culture and science behind espresso.
