The best kept secret restaurant in Rabat 🇲🇦

Le Patio by Chellah is tucked inside the historic Chellah necropolis — ancient Roman ruins, olive trees, and a menu that blends Mediterranean finesse with Moroccan touches by Chef Mounir Rochdi.

Eating among centuries-old ruins, under the shade of olive trees, is not something you get to do every day.

This is your reminder to slow down 🌅🤍

Walking by the pool at sunset at La Fiermontina Ocean, and it hit me — we spend so much of life rushing through moments we’ll wish we had slowed down for.

This hotel, tucked into the wild dunes of Morocco’s Atlantic coast, forces you to do exactly that. No rush, no noise, just the ocean, the light, and a little stillness.

Sometimes the most luxurious thing isn’t the destination — it’s giving yourself permission to slow down and actually be there.

Hidden in plain sight next to the Eurostar 🚆✨

The St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel is one of London’s most breathtaking buildings: Gothic grandeur, red brick, soaring arches, and that iconic grand staircase that stops you in your tracks every single time.

If you’re passing through St. Pancras or King’s Cross with time to kill, skip the station chains and head inside for a coffee instead. It’s also the perfect spot to open your laptop and get some work done, surrounded by pure Victorian luxury. Who said emails can’t be glamorous? ☕💻

Save this for your next train day 📌

There’s nothing I love more than swapping the city for a proper countryside escape to somewhere beautifully designed, and RH England at Aynho Park might be one of the best I’ve found.

A 400-year-old estate turned into a stunning design and hospitality destination — think soaring ceilings, beautiful interiors, and multiple restaurants to choose from, all set within 73 acres of English countryside.

This is exactly the kind of weekend reset I live for.

Don’t miss this spot if you’re in Rabat 🌿🇲🇦

Villa Soraya is one of the most peaceful places I’ve found in the city — a gorgeous setting surrounded by nature, perfect for a slow coffee away from the noise.

It’s the kind of spot that makes you forget you’re still in the middle of Rabat.

Every corner of this hotel has a genuinely royal feel — beautifully done, with a sleek, modern design that’s a world away from the traditional riad style you’d find in Marrakech. It’s luxury, reimagined for the coast.

✨ The Design: Clean, contemporary lines throughout, nothing fussy, just effortless elegance
🌊 The Setting: Right on Tamuda Bay, with that same sense of refinement carried through every space
👑 The Feel: Unmistakably royal, in the best possible way

If Marrakech gives you old-world charm, Tamuda Bay gives you modern grandeur.

A peaceful weekend at IZZA, Marrakech 🇲🇦🤍

@izzamarrakech is formed from seven interconnecting riads in the heart of the Medina, just a 10-minute walk from the souk, yet it feels completely removed from the city’s noise and energy.

The rooms are beautifully decorated — each one individually styled and named after a cultural icon, filled with handcrafted details, zellij tiles, and art throughout. Between the quiet courtyards, the plunge pools, and the rooftop, it was exactly the kind of calm, restorative stay I needed.

I can’t wait to go back to Tulleys Farm 🎃🍂

Last year I went with family and friends, and it was such an amazing experience. Hands down the best pumpkin festival in the UK — over 1.5 million pumpkins, incredible photo spots, and the whole setup was just gorgeous.

We’re already planning to go back later this month, and I genuinely can’t wait.

The design, the space, the service — every single detail is flawless.
