So, what is so special about this property? Are we supposed to take you word for it? What's so gourmet about the food? What is so elegant? What is 5 star--the bed or the breakfast? C'mon, give us something to work with here.

Fair enough. Actually the correct property name is Villa Marco Polo Inn. For starters, there was not one small, worthless object throughout the villa. Here are some of the amenities that rate a 5-star, in my humble opinion: priceless Persian carpets on highly-polished hardwood floors, professionally pressed bed linens, silk, monogrammed robes, Michael Hoppe CD's playing in the background, fabulous library stocked with world-wide travel guides and literary treasures, a five-course organic breakfast made from scratch, including the jams, exquisite fresh flower arrangements, extra large bed rooms, unheard of coffees, rare teas and impeccable concierge services. In addition, one of the innkeepers is a published author whose father was a cardiac surgeon, hired by the Shah of Iran and brought to Tehran to build a hospital. The innkeeper spent many years there and brought back treasures that underpin the luxurious ambiance. My personal tastes in travel lean toward more intimate, eclectic properties and unavoidably, any review is subjective.

Wonder if hyder-j is affiliated with the property?

Well, whatever.

Can't say I am a fan of Michael Hoppe's music

Didn't notice this place on Luxury Link.

mountie, I think hyder-j is suggesting this as a new selection for Luxury Link.....probably explains why we don't see it appearing yet.

Mountie, the category for this forum is "Suggest Properties for Luxury Link," duh. In the interest of transparency, decades ago I had a serious day job at Wailea, Maui where I wrote, spoke and played. Currently, I'm a jet-setting grandmother who has seen and enjoyed a lot of this planet. I am not affiliated with the Marco Polo or any other property nor do I offer reviews.I also like to share some of my exceptional experiences to promote other's well-being and enjoyment. Marco Polo would be an interesting addition to Luxury Link's lineup., where you are welcome to bring your own music.

Thanks for the transparency.

I'm sure others in the community, as well as myself would enjoy learning about more of your suggested additions as you continue to jet-set.

Welcome.
