I went on vacation to beautiful Italy in July, at the height of the heat and the season of dizzying discounts. Arriving in the small resort town of Rimini, I was surprised with how easily I endure the heat there, apparently the sea breeze did not let me suffocate.
I settled in the Baltic 3 * hotel in the heart of the Marina Centro area. The hotel has an interesting history. It was founded in 1960 by the Ricci family, who still manage it today. A huge plus of the hotel is that it is very close to the sea and there is a private sandy beach with beach umbrellas, sun loungers and cabins. Since the hotel has recently undergone a major renovation, the rooms are perfectly clean, there is air conditioning, satellite TV, an electronic safe, a direct dial telephone, a balcony, a hairdryer in the bathroom and all necessary toiletries, which is very pleasing, because. You don't have to carry this little thing around with you. The staff is professionally trained, polite and conscientious in their duties. I ate at the hotel restaurant, they have a chef specializing in fish dishes, a large selection of salads and wonderful desserts. I spoiled myself with sweets and did not forget about the figure, hotel guests could use the services of the Steven Sporting Club for free, which is located very close.
Of course, Italy is not a cheap resort country, but it's worth it! What passionate Italians are worth, these men know how to look gorgeous and turn their heads... In order not to fall face down and look like a real lady, I bought myself a couple of cool outfits and perfume, since they had seasonal discounts and I pampered myself with chic things. And at the airport, they returned some of the money for purchases to me, it's called Tax Free (the IVA tax refund system (VAT) when exporting goods outside the Schengen border). The real tax rate is 21%, but taking into account the commission of the Tax Free system, you get 11-12% of the cost of the goods. For example, with the amount of expenses (from $1210 and above), the return, therefore, will be more than $130. And it is better to spend this money in Duty Free stores, only at checkout you need to have receipts for the goods and a passport. That's what she is dear and beloved by me Italy.
