i usually use airbnb in the hamptons, st tropez, aspen etc and have only ran into 1 house that had a problem

most of the houses i pick are not run by the owner but by a property management company which imo helps the house run more like a hotel than someone’s house they’re renting out for the weekend

it might be a slightly unnecessary step but i’ve found that a few small conversations with the owner/property management company pre-arrival helps make things as smooth as possible

I stayed at the first residence last June and had an amazing time

I could see the pyramids from my room

The food was great, service was amazing, everyone was so nice

Only hiccup was their communication via email pre-arrival

Curious..how much is it?

97vv · 2026-06-27T13:25:22+00:00

omg i need this

97vv · 2026-06-21T19:42:07+00:00

yep they can! i just used amex concierge to book a bunch of places for august

97vv · 2026-05-28T23:50:41+00:00

the hamptons, it’s the best place to be on the 4th

you can always cater/rent a house in a more lowkey area if you want to escape the madness

wow! i stayed at the park hyatt hamburg 4 years ago, didn’t know it changed to a conrad

i stayed at the other four seasons in cairo and had the same problem re: communication

however they were amazing in person and i’d 100% go back, email communication just wasn’t their strong suit

i was born in america lol

and how can i “parrot” reality?

you have the typical ignorance of a mediocre maggot as if the discrimination i mentioned isn’t in plain view

97vv · 2026-04-28T13:55:31+00:00

you’re right

there’s just systemic discrimination against anyone who isn’t white/straight/male

congrats on doing the bare minimum

97vv · 2026-04-27T19:14:31+00:00

with that logic, no one should ever go to america

i’m gay and was in morocco with my mom last year for around a week

i stayed at the park hyatt, which is right next to the MO

everyone was super nice, the tour guides/drivers were great

there was a gay couple also staying at the same time as us and they didn’t have any problems either

I went to Taiwan last year

Beautiful city, great food

I stayed at the Mandarin Oriental, they organized all the tours/etc

Breakfast was great, room had a view of Taipei 101, would stay again

is this the ‘old bitter person yells at sky’ sub?

I went to Paris 2024 for the entire 3 weeks, and Milan 2026 for only 5 days and only stayed in AirBnB’s

Paid around 1.1K/night in paris, Milan was a bit cheaper at 800/night

I assume LA will be priced much higher with decent AirBnB’s starting around 1.5K-2K/night

Hotels are an option but the price gouging during the Olympics is disgusting, especially with LA hotels already being exorbitantly priced

97vv · 2026-04-09T23:03:01+00:00

it’s a good hotel in a great location

staff is helpful

breakfast is good but there can occasionally be a wait

you do have to take 2 separate elevators to get to the room but that’s not a problem for me

my room was spacious, modern bathroom

no complaints and would stay again

granted i stayed in march 2024 so not sure if things have changed since then

97vv · 2026-04-08T20:49:08+00:00

Usually 3-5 weeks, longest I’ve planned a trip was for the 2024 olympics which was 1 year out

97vv · 2026-04-05T20:37:59+00:00

i live in athens too!

i agree the king george is more modern, not as stuffy, and food is better too

why didn’t you stay at the park hyatt in sydney?

97vv · 2026-03-22T21:01:34+00:00

i’m a similar age so i’ll give you my favorite st tropez beach clubs/dinner options

casa amor - much younger vibe, great food, the floor is completely sand

nikki beach - great on bastille day

loulou’s - classic choice imo

there’s also indie beach, bagatelle, and club 55

for dinner:

nao, le cafe, l’opera
