Worst Hotel EVER.

Worst Hotel EVER.

We try to be very positive here at We Are Life Travels. Even when things don’t quite work out, we tend to think “Hey ho, onwards & upwards!” But our experience of Hotel Valemare in Tropea, in Calabria was so AWFUL, that it’s taken me a long time to add it to this blog. I […]

Casa Maria, Bergamo

Casa Maria, Bergamo

We are currently looking into options for an (initial) long term let in Italy, specifically Bergamo. Whilst we love Italy, almost beyond reason, we know the country well enough to know that it is a bureaucratic nightmare and that any move will be stressful, at best 😉 We also know that doing what we do […]

A Retreat in Alghero

A Retreat in Alghero

By town standards, Alghero, on the north western coast of Sardinia, is small. The historic centre can be walked in a couple of hours and the long sandy, pine wood fringed beaches to the north are close enough to walk to. (If you want real privacy however, you need to take public transport, the car […]

Puglia

Puglia

I’d long wanted to visit Puglia although it’s always seemed just that little bit too far, when we’ve previously visited Italy. However, our road trip gave us the perfect opportunity to get down to the heel and so we set off, with heads full of images of white conical topped hobbit houses set against an […]

Agriturismo Saltara

One of the joys of being lucky enough to do a fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants trip, with no real forward planning, is discovering real gems, off the tourist track. After staying at Le Dune on the western coast of Sardinia, we headed north, thinking that we’d already hit the jack-pot and that anything else subsequently, would be a […]

Moroccan Day Trip

It’s always great having friends in-the-know when you travel abroad, as they often give you top tips that you don’t find in guide-books or through internet searches. Because usually you don’t know about these places and so don’t search on them. One of these gems turned up on our recent trip to Essaouira, when we […]

The Snail Hotel

Blogging about Le Dune, reminded me that I hadn’t got round to blogging about our second trip to Los Caracoles, the wonderful pod hotel we discovered, high up in the hills above Nerja, last November. We loved it so much, and were so intrigued by the pod-suites, that we decided to return. And how glad […]

San Pellegrino

San Pellegrino

Nothing excites us more on our travels than finding unique and unusual places to stay, and Castello della Botta, high up in the hills above San Pellegrino Terme, is very definitely both!   We were staying in Bergamo but decided to check out the spa town in the Brembana Valley, just 40 minutes away and […]

Holiday Fever

Holiday Fever

Fortunately, when we booked a night’s accommodation in Algehro, Sardinia, I was looking more at the room/bathroom/reviews than the name, and so really only realised when the confirmation email came through that the name was so awful. I mean, “Holiday Fever“… However, we could not have been more pleasantly surprised by Holiday Fever – and […]

Riad Mimouna

Riad Mimouna

This is riad is quite simply, stunning. Located right on the sea walls, and converted from a very grand 19th century residence, you just could not have a better place to stay in Essaouira. The entrance to the riad is breath-taking – hand carved thuya wooden ceilings, stained glass windows, mosaic tiled walls and floors, […]
