In the Summer 2025 Issue:
Seas the Calm: Eight Dreamy Italian Summer Destinations
With summer in full swing, it’s time to beat the heat. Contributing writer Kevin Raub highlights eight beach towns with fewer crowds—but just as much beauty, relaxation and Italian summer spirit. From coastal elegance in Liguria to sugary sands in Puglia and a plethora of seaside excursions in Sicily, these destinations will fit any beachgoer’s agenda.
Crossing the Border from Gorizia to Nova Gorica
Kevin explores this special town on the border of Italy and Slovenia, introducing us to this unique blend of cultures in Gorizia, on the Italian side, and Nova Gorica, its Slovenian counterpart. Discover the area’s World War II and socialist history, fine local wines, natural beauty and culinary specialties.
Old Roots, New Vistas: Tuscany’s Hotel Le Fontanelle
Rustic charm meets five-star luxury at Hotel Le Fontanelle. With terra cotta floors and comfy beds, the rooms feel like a lived-in, private home. The real indulgence is the scenery—bucolic Tuscan landscapes abound, each viewpoint better than the last.
Sense Experience Resort: An Enchanting Escape
This five-star seaside resort is one of Kathy’s favorite places for some R&R, and for good reason. Towering umbrella pines make you think you’re sleeping in a treehouse, while assigned beach chairs allow you to relax and soak up the sun. Paradise found!
Dream Day in Italy: Feel Pretty in Pink at This Sardinia Beach
Sardinia boasts the best of Italy’s beaches, including this beach with pink sand and turquoise waters. Take a boat tour of the beach, situated in La Maddalena National Park, for a day out in nature and picture-perfect views.
