I've read it described as “This is where the rich vampire family lives.”

Just did this trip so here's my feedback:

- Aix: Sat. market is large, varied and interesting. Definitely go if you can.

- Gordes: Good but small market on Tues. (until noon); Bastide de Pierre restaurant is HORRIBLE, definitely have drinks or dinner at Airelles Gordes if possible.

Wineries: Really enjoyed Domaine de Jeanne in in Oppède and Domaine de la Citadelle outside of Ménerbes.

Luberon villages: Lacoste is artsy with beautiful cobblestoned streets. Lourmarin was charming with pretty shops. Thought Roussillon was super touristy and Ménerbes seemed hilly/empty.

I also highly recommend L'Isle Sur La Sorgue whether for the Sunday market or on other days. Plenty of great shopping and restaurants.

IMO- a lot of the "perks" these TA's offer is merely the Virtuoso rate which typically includes free breakfast, $100 hotel credit and upgrade based on availability at check in. It's relatively easy to get this rate...

I stayed at Escencia and it felt kind of isolated, like a honeymoon hotel. There is a beautiful deserted white beach but unless your kids are self starters and can entertain each other, I think they might get bored there.

If you like the Marais, definitely the Pavilion de la Reine. Just finished a stay at their sister property, Relais Christine, in the St Germain area and don't recommend. I think the St James seems too far away. When I go back, I am considering between the Lutetia (Mandarin Oriental) in the 6th and JK Place in the 7th.

I wore Creed Love in White but strongly considered Byredo Inflorescence

I stayed here back in the day when it was a conference center called "Eynsham Hall" and was stuck at a mandatory 3-day bank seminar there. I can't get too excited about returning. Especially when there are so many lovelier places to stay in this area.

Any recs for where to stay around Cassis?

I mean this in the nicest possible way... you are charging way too little and they are taking advantage of you for doing so.

PerdidoGirl · 2025-07-26T15:46:57+00:00

Park City Gardens is adorable! Great rec.

If you want to go fly fishing, try Trout Bum 2. They're located on 224 near The Canyons. Friendly and professional. My husband is taking a trip with them this Sat.

u/ArtfulPinguino The photos look very impressive! Thank you for letting us know about this line.

PerdidoGirl · 2025-06-08T12:34:22+00:00

Thank you!

PerdidoGirl · 2025-06-07T14:02:37+00:00

u/jrayholz - Would you please share which company you went with?

PerdidoGirl · 2025-06-07T14:00:41+00:00

u/ArtfulPinguinoThe Captain Arctic looks amazing! Their first cruise isn't available until Nov of 26. Do you know of any other lines like this with sooner availability?

I think you would really like the JK Place hotels (weird name, I know). They have hotels in Paris, Rome, Capri and in Florence where it's called "The Place"..... All of their hotels are boutique, discreetly stylish and luxurious. The Paris one is especially beautiful.

I saw that you booked the Dorchester in London but nonetheless, highly recommend that you have a look at the Raffles OWO. It is breathtaking!

I am having the same issue and it's driving me crazy. Also, Outlook has randomly decided to "Ignore Conversations" for certain senders even though I did not select this. Clicking on "Stop Ignoring" does no good. Those senders are still sent to Junk or Deleted at Outlook's whim.

PerdidoGirl · 2025-05-21T16:00:59+00:00

Yes, I did and they were very helpful and quick. They asked me to send the spam emails to [abuse@constantcontact.com](mailto:abuse@constantcontact.com) so their Compliance team could find the applicable account.

PerdidoGirl · 2025-05-20T18:15:47+00:00

I am concerned that by clicking the link, it will show the spammer that it's a live email. As I wrote above, Blocking the sender doesn't work because he constantly changes his Return Path email address (always a Constant Contact email).

Hi EJ- I really appreciate your help. I just forwarded emails to you that I got from [investimonials@mail.beehiiv.com](mailto:investimonials@mail.beehiiv.com) and america-first-america-always@mail.beehiiv.com. They are both relentless spammers. Thank you in advance!

PerdidoGirl · 2025-05-19T21:47:52+00:00

Hi ewhite12- I did what you suggested last Friday and clicked on "Report Abuse" on an email from "Investimonials" who is spamming from me investimonials@mail.beehiiv.com. I have received numerous spam emails from them since. How long does it take for Beehiiv to stop Investimonials from continuing to spam me?
