Best. Holiday. Ever.

Enterprise 2.0 Add comments

So I’ve just come back from nearly a month away from a stag do / wedding / honeymoon trip. Chris Tyler was the best man and did a spectacular job organising a three day stag do in Rome. In all 12 of us took in some drinking:

and recovery…

From Rome, we then travelled up to Villa Pignano for the wedding. Photos cannot do this place justice:

and Raffaella and her team did an amazing job of making all 60 of us feel welcome and making it an amazing day:

From Tuscany it was off to the Diva resort in the Maldives. This was an amazing place, the staff were unbelievably helpful and the facilities and food were wonderful. This was the view from our villa:

There were 5 or 6 bars and restaurants with views like these:

and some spectacular sunsets:

For our last two nights, we upgraded to a water villa, which sit on stilts in the sea, about 200 metres from the shore. This was the view from our room – with steps down into the sea!

It was an absolutely amazing holiday – and I managed not to check email the entire time!
