The Mythical Mediterranean
Where to get lost, in style and comfort
The Mediterranean is surrounded by three continents – Europe, Africa and Asia – and even though the cultures around this sea are highly diverse, they harmoniously share a pleasant climate, distinctive flora and fauna, and not least the intense blue of the water.
Angelika Taschen set out in search of the most beautiful hotels on a great variety of coasts, islands and beaches, taking you on a journey to the luxurious Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc and the ultra-chic Les Roches Rouges on the Côte d’Azur, to the little-known Pardini’s Hermitage on the Italian island of Giglio, which is only accessible by boat or on foot, and to Bodrum in Turkey, where the elegant Amanruya resort lies hidden in one of the most stunning bays in the Mediterranean. She also presents new hotel concepts, great architecture and creative design – such as the finca Menorca Experimental on the Balearic Islands, the modernist Villa Dubrovnik in Croatia and Dexamenes on the Peloponnese, where new life was breathed into decommissioned wine tanks.
Further highlights are the brand-new, stylishly designed Mezzatorre on Ischia and the Torre di Cala Piccola with its enchanting private beach on the Argentario peninsula in Tuscany, an almost unknown location that possesses the aura of 1960s Italy. Another gem is La Locanda del Barbablù, with just five rooms in the shadow of the mythical volcano on Stromboli. Look forward to staying at the Nord-Pinus in Tangier with its fantastic view of the Strait of Gibraltar, and the charming Coco-Mat Eco Residences on Serifos, or experiencing the originality of Ammos on Crete, where the art and design are as essential as the sun and the beach.
TASCHEN’s luxury art books distill museum-worthy masterpieces into exquisitely produced volumes that feel as exceptional as they look. Bound in premium materials and printed on heavyweight, archival-quality paper, each edition pairs breathtaking image reproduction with insightful, expertly edited texts. From iconic monographs to sweeping cultural surveys, these books invite slow looking—plates glow with depth and fidelity, typography is elegant yet unobtrusive, and thoughtful layouts give every artwork room to breathe.
Designed as heirlooms as much as references, they’re the kind of objects that transform a coffee table or library shelf into a gallery. Ribbon markers, gilded or coloured edges, and sturdy slipcases underscore the sense of occasion, while meticulous production standards ensure lasting beauty. Whether you’re building a collection or gifting a statement piece, a TASCHEN luxury art book is a tactile celebration of creativity, craft, and cultured living.
