Eat well, laugh often, love much!
The week before DUCO Italy, Jamie escorted six travel advisors to experience three properties in very different regions of Italy. This FAM was extra special due to the fact that this was the first FAM trip for all three hotels.
Venice
We flew into Venice (VCE). It was an easy and scenic 20-minute private boat taxi to Violino d'Oro, Venice’s newest 5-star boutique hotel that is the third property to open under Collezione EM. The collection currently includes Grand Hotel Minerva in Florence and Villa Roma Imperiale in Forte dei Marmi, with another Forte boutique hotel opening in 2025, Pensione America. Their Venice masterpiece that is part of Leading Hotels of the World boasts 32 impeccably designed residential-style rooms and suites, idyllic views of the canal and a perfect location; a 2-minute walk from the bustling and iconic Piazza San Marco. With reverence to the Golden Age of Venice, every corner of the hotel is designed to captivate; from the stunning collection of artwork and opulent furnishings, to the comforting cuisine of Il Piccolo Restaurant to the intimate effervesce of Il Piccolo Bar, where cocktails and cicchetti delight.
