Plan my tripChristmas & New Year's · reply in minutes

The weeks around Christmas and New Year's are the busiest of the year on this coast. The best villas often ask for a minimum stay over the holidays, New Year's Eve dinners and parties sell out, and yachts and private chefs are booked weeks ahead.

Viviana plans the whole holiday: a villa big enough for the family or the group, a Christmas dinner cooked at the house, a boat day between the holidays, and New Year's Eve the way you want it, from a long dinner at the villa to a table at one of the big parties.
