Hotel Legends: "World's Best Hotel" Passalacqua on Lake Como with Valentina De Santis
Italian hotelier Valentina De Santis has turned dreams into reality at Passalacqua on Lake Como. Often referred to as the Italian Eloise at the Plaza, she grew up running the corridors of her family’s hotel, the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, and was instilled with a love for hospitality at a young age. She joins Melissa to share stories of her magical childhood, her deep rooted love for hotels and the unexpected, serendipitous journey of her family’s latest endeavor, the mystical Passalacqua. After opening in 2022, the intimate, family-owned villa was recently named the “World’s Best Hotel” by the World’s 50 Best, an achievement Valentina says goes beyond the family's wildest dreams. Through tangible passion, Valentina reveals the vision behind Passalacqua, the history of the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, her advice for making the most of your time on Lake Como and the power of filling your life with beauty.
