Capri, Italy

Towering cliffs, impossibly blue grottoes, bougainvillea-draped villas and undeniably chic residents – the island of Capri is everything you imagine it to be. Spend a happy morning exploring the ruins of the impressive Villa Jovis, which was built by the Emperor Tiberius. The view over the Bay of Naples there is stunning. Surround yourself in dilapidated grandeur at the Art Nouveau Villa Lysis, or bathe in blue light at the famous Grotta Azzurra, where sunlight enters through a small chasm and is refracted through the water. Alternatively, spend a glamorous afternoon at the Bagni Tiberio beach club, where you can swim among the ruins of a Roman villa. In the evening, dine on the superb Ravioli Capresi at La Capannina, where there are 200 wines to choose from.
