Hotel Caruso, Ravello, Italy

Perched on a cliff top 1000ft above the Mediterranean, the Hotel Caruso's panoramic infinity pool overlooks the sea and the stunning Amalfi Coast.   The area has been a favourite haven for Hollywood stars, ever since Greta Garbo came here to escape the prying paparazzi.

The hotel offers just 54 rooms, of which 36 are suites and 18 are double rooms. With service typical of Orient Express Hotels, The Caruso has an intimate environment, with most rooms having stunning sea views or sunny balconies.

La Casa Que Canta, Zihuatanejo, Mexico

With a pool made famous by the film "When a Man Loves a Woman", La Casa Que Canta's infinity pool overlooks the Pacific Ocean.  Not the only pool at the resort, there is also a salt-water pool down amongst the rocks, and eleven of the 24 suites have their own private plunge pools. 

The entire hotel is built of native materials, using no glass or metal.  Walls are built in terracotta adobe style, with thatched roofs and louvered doors and window shutters.  Suites are distinctively decorated and feature traditional Mexican hand-crafted furniture and artifacts.
