I live in Zürich, my sister in Belgium. We'd love to get away from Mon-Thurs.
to somewhere. Maybe Italy? Sea, sun ? Could someone give us some advice? Not somewhere solitary, and no mountains. Been to Venezia, Firenze, Milano, Rome. Or should we look into another country ? Thanks for advice!

Excuse me, what's DBV ? Have you been in Croatia? Could you give me some more details? We need a break desperately.

Wouldn't Spain or Canary Islands make sense at this time of year?

My vote goes to Kefalonia in Greece. A fantastic place
Dubrovnik in Croatia is another fantastic place to visit.
If you like Italy I loved Lake Garda. Riva Del Garda is a place I want to visit many, many times.

Italy: Try Sorrento (and Capri).
Also, Nice might have what you are looking for, with good airport connections.

What about Sardegna? Might be a little late in the year though.
I also vote for Croatia. Gorgeous country!

Why not head down to the Amalfi Coast, daily highs in Napoli are still in the high 20's.

Agree Nice is a great place and the airport is at the front door.

Thanks everyone ! Went to Granada, Spain for a few days.
Has anyone been there? It's interesting. But what makes
me curious, are the "carmena" villas, unique in the world,
no-one can enter. I wonder what it looks like inside....
I wonder if these ancient villas, have hidden stairways..

I second (or third) the vote for the Amalfi coast and in particular Positano and Hotel California Positano (http://www.hotelcaliforniapositano.it/uk/index_uk.htm)! We took a three day vacation from our vacation in Positano and did not want to leave.
