I don't know about you, but for some reason it felt like everyone was in Italy last summer, living La Dolce Vita either on the Amalfi Coast or Lake Como. Well, this year we're leaving behind the FOMO and hitting that "Book Now" button to plan the Italian summer of our dreams (no excuses ladies!). Think: refreshing limoncellos, picturesque landscapes, Italian glamour, and obviously (if not my favorite) carbs on carbs on carbs.
The only con? Italy doesn't come cheap. Especially the luxurious hotels and resorts we see influencers visiting that are always featured in both shows and movies. But that doesn't mean we still can't romanticize our Italian summer vacation even if we're not technically in Europe. That's why we've rounded up the best hotels in the U.S. that don't require a transatlantic flight, but still make you feel like you're in Italy. And for those who've saved up for years (aka, me!), we've also included luxury hotels in Italy's most notorious idyllic settings, from Tuscany all the way to Lake Como. Just note: Prices may vary depending on your choice of date and room type. So what are you waiting for? Pack your bags and get ready for a "Bella Notte" adventure that will make your heart (and stomach) sing. Buon viaggio!
