Vintage girls’ trips are on the rise, and they’re not just about finding a venue with nostalgic design from another era. They’re about craving the kinds of trips people took 20 or 30 years ago, when you came home with stories instead of 600 photos, and everyone was in the moment instead of documenting it.  After years of fast, over-documented travel, 2026 is ushering in something quieter and far more considered. Call it a new golden age, or call it hush-pitality. Either way, the shift is clear: trips are becoming less about capturing everything and more about actually being there. We are putting our phones down long enough to enjoy the people in front of us. “Grandma hobbies” have re-entered the chat for a reason: cards, reading, long walks, proper conversations, the art of doing very little and doing it very well. The appeal is not nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake. It is a return to a slower, more social pace that feels better. The best hotels are across the U.S. and Europe, aren’t just leaning back into bygone glamour with retro cabanas, striped umbrellas, and Frank Sinatra energy lobby bars. They’re bringing back the analog experinces too: vinyl listening rooms, card games on boat rides, Moke rides around town, Mahjong, bike rides into town for homemade ice cream, and dinner clubs. Call it Vintage Girls’ Summer, and a return to a Riviera state of mind. You’re officially  invited to the Holiday: VR Summer Club ☀️🦢: a collection of spaces and stays devoted to this exact way of gathering, from French wedding weekends to rooftop hotels with lunch served from retro lunchboxes, seaside trains and 70's poolside parties in Mallorca  (→ explore the full collection). Below, is just one stop inside the collection. A lineup of hotels that understand the golden age of hospitality.  Reported by: Pallavi Mehra
