Italy, done beautifully.
Rome, Florence, Venice, the Amalfi Coast — the right hotels in the right neighborhoods, with VIP perks included.
Italy rewards good planning. A hotel by the Spanish Steps versus one across town, or a Positano room with a sea view versus a street view, can shape the whole trip.
Those are the details I help you get right — so the trip feels effortless from the first espresso to the last sunset.
Your Italy Trip, Handled
Where I’d Send You
Rome — Hotel de Russie or Hotel Hassler, steps from the Spanish Steps.
Florence — Four Seasons Hotel Firenze, set in a Renaissance palace with private gardens.
Venice — Belmond Hotel Cipriani or Aman Venice, a calm retreat from the crowds.
Amalfi Coast & Capri — Le Sirenuse in Positano, Belmond Hotel Caruso in Ravello, or JK Place Capri.
Italian Riviera — Belmond Hotel Splendido, overlooking the harbor in Portofino.
Booked through my preferred partner programs, many of these include breakfast, hotel credits, and upgrades when available.

Why Plan with Michelle
I don’t just plan Italy trips — I’ve traveled there many times myself. From Rome, Florence, and Venice to the Amalfi Coast, Capri, Genoa, and the Italian Riviera, I know which neighborhoods to stay in, which hotels are worth the splurge, and how to pace a trip so it feels like Italy, not a checklist.
As a Fora (X) advisor, I book through preferred hotel partner programs, so you get added perks and a direct line to the hotel team — usually at the same rate you’d find booking yourself.
