If you've read for any length of time, you know that no country or location holds power over me the way that Italy's Amalfi Coast. If one an have an Italian soul, I certainly do. When I win the lottery you'll surely see me skipping down the tarmac on my private jet, family arm in arm, on our way to what I consider the most incredible place on earth.

For those of you just looking for a vacation spot, consider Positano's Il San Pietro di Positano. Named for the man who built this dreamy establishment, this luxury boutique hotel stands proudly on the rocky cliffs overlooking nearby Capri.

As you lounge by the panoramic pool sipping Limoncello distilled from locally grown Sfusato Amalfitano lemons and dream loftier thoughts under the glistening Mediterranean sun, take a moment to count your blessings.

This tiny jewel of a hotel boasts a Michelin Starred restaurant and an elevator that will take you straight down to the beach below. As far as I can tell, you have no need to venture far beyond the grounds or the nearby beach. It is, after all, a Condé Nast Traveler Gold List winner from 2011 as well as one of Travel + Leisure's 500 World's Best Hotels winner from 2009 & 2011. Enough said.

If you notice the girl smiling broadly behind her oversized Tom Ford glasses, that's me enjoying my sweet, sweet life. See you there!

What the beautiful people are saying...
