After the weeks and months of consistent work, you deserve a break. If traveling is in your plan, there are quite a few different relaxing getaways in Europe that you can consider traveling to, either by yourself or with friends and family.
You can sail from Southampton on a cruise or you can fly out directly to your destination or set out on a road trip, the options are extensive. But the key is to find a place where you will be able to relax and destress.
In this guide, we will walk you through a list of some of the best spots in Europe that you can consider traveling to.
- Santorini
If you are looking to visit a dreamy destination, Santorini is it. Known for its clear blue water and white domed buildings, Santorini is one of those spots in Greece that’s going to take your breath away as you step into the city. You can unwind on the black sand beaches, explore quaint villages, and indulge in delicious Greek cuisine.
Lake Bled
Sometimes, it’s okay to visit places that are unique and offbeat and Lake Bled in Slovenia happens to be one of them. It isn’t your typical lake but offers a picturesque retreat. It is nestled in the Julian Alps and the emerald green lake is straight out of someone’s dream. Take a stroll around the lake, enjoy a boat ride to the island, and savor the panoramic views from Bled Castle. The peaceful surroundings and fresh mountain air make Lake Bled an ideal destination for relaxation.
Provence
When you are looking for a place to destress and relax, it makes sense that you’d want to explore less crowded spots and Provence happens to be the best option in Italy. The slow-paced lifestyle, coupled with the Mediterranean climate, creates an atmosphere conducive to unwinding. You can check out the local markets and even roam around the villages. The food is delectable too.
Cinque Terre
While we are exploring vacation spots in Italy, Cinque Terre is another option worth checking out. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and would you believe it if we said there are no cars there? The locals walk or take their bikes out to get from one place to the other. In short, if you want to step away from the hustle of city life and chill somewhere relaxing and noise-free, this is it.
Azores
Last on the list is the Azores, which is in Portugal. The unique blend of lush landscapes, volcanic craters, and hot springs is truly nature’s marvel that you simply can’t get enough of. While you are there, you can explore the beauty of São Miguel Island, relax in thermal baths, and discover hidden waterfalls. In short, there’s so much that awaits your presence.
Conclusion
Planning your next trip to Europe for a relaxing vacation doesn’t have to be so complicated. Depending on your mood and budget, you can pick a destination from the ones mentioned and then set out to have the time of your life.
![[AD] This year has been full of changes, we’ve homeschooled, we’ve worked from home (and still do) and as a result, we have spent more time in the house than we have out. It’s been no surprise that our monthly utility bills have increased over that period.
With our rising bills we wanted to see how easy it would be to reduce our bills and be more in control of our energy usage by switching to a smart home with one of the UKs leading smart home providers @HiveHomeUK. Combined with our Amazon Echo devices we have fully automated the lights in our home with Hive Dimmable Lights. They can be dimmed, set on timer, switched on/off via the app and respond to voice commands through Alexa.
You can find out more ways a smart home with Hive can benefit you in my blog post (link in bio)
