18.08.2023 - 14:31 / forbes.com / Grace Kelly / News
For nearly a century, the Monte-Carlo Beach hotel has been welcoming well-heeled guests—including Grace Kelly, Leonardo DiCaprio and Rihanna—to the French Riviera. After two years of renovation, the hotel reopened last year with a chic, minimalist redesign by architect India Mahdavi that pays homage to the 1930s. The reborn Monte-Carlo Beach features three restaurants, a PAOMA spa, and a new emphasis on sustainability.
Beginning this month, the cost of Greece’s coveted golden visa has doubled from a €250,000 real estate investment (where it was among the lowest in Europe) to €500,000 in most parts of the country. Here’s what you need to know about acquiring a Greek golden visa.
For those who like leaving vacation dinner plans up in the air, here’s a new idea for you—acclaimed Dutch Chef Angélique Schmeinck has launched the world’s first hot air balloon restaurant. On CuliAir Skydining lucky diners enjoy a three-course meal—which lasts about 90 minutes—while floating above the Netherlands. "I have now done over 700 flights with over 7,000 passengers," Schmeinck says of her high-flying restaurant. "But every flight for me is special because you don't know what happens. It's one of the most wonderful things a chef can give to a guest, something they will never forget."
Take all the selfies you want on vacation, but never post a photo of yourself on social media holding your boarding pass. Whether it’s printed on paper or digital, boarding passes contain barcodes or QR codes that hackers just love to get their hands on—including your reservation number, passport and driver’s license data. No amount of likes is worth being hacked while traveling.

The Most Stunning Airbnbs in Mykonos for an Unforgettable Greek Getaway
Fringed with honeyed beaches and emblematic windmills, the Greek “Island of the Winds” is one of the prettiest Cyclades islands. When choosing where to stay in Mykonos, the island’s namesake town (also known as Chora) is a natural choice. This way, you can walk to the windmills and catch the sunset over Little Venice before surrendering yourself to the famous Mykonos nightlife. If swimming in the Aegean Sea is top of your list of things to do in Mykonos, consider accommodation near the beaches of Kalafati, Elia, and Ornos. Live like an Olympian at these divine Airbnbs in Mykonos, Greece, with private pools and million-dollar views.

Stay by the Eighth Wonder of the World at These 7 Hotels
Mont-Saint-Michel, France’s most famous and mysterious island, is one of the country’s most visited sites with 3 million tourists coming every year to marvel at the islet and its 1000-year-old abbey. While the island isn’t large and can be visited in just one day, it’s busy, making the narrow cobblestone streets, the numerous steep stairs, and every corner of the abbey, difficult to navigate. To make the most out of a visit to the area, visitors should stay in a Mont-Saint-Michel hotel for a couple of days, walk the trails around the bay, take a guided tour of the bay itself, and come to the island very early or very late to see it at its best: tranquil and free of crowds. But there’s one rule of thumb about hotels near Mont-Saint-Michel: Closer does not mean better. Staying a few miles away may prevent you from waking up to a view of the islet, but you’ll get much more bang for your buck.
