The Most Desirable European Destinations for Extended Stays

There is a noticeable difference between visiting a destination and living there, even temporarily. Extended stays allow travellers to develop routines, discover local culture beyond the guidebooks, and experience a destination at a more natural pace. Across Europe, several locations continue to attract those seeking a balance of comfort, culture, accessibility, and quality of life.

Lake Como, Italy

Lake Como remains one of Europe's most enduring destinations for longer stays. Elegant villas, charming lakeside towns, and easy access to Milan create an ideal combination of relaxation and convenience. Residents can spend mornings exploring local markets, afternoons on the water, and evenings enjoying some of northern Italy's finest restaurants. Properties such as Passalacqua and Villa d'Este have helped reinforce the region's reputation for refined living.

Provence, France

Provence offers a completely different rhythm. Markets, vineyards, historic villages, and Mediterranean landscapes create an environment that encourages a slower pace of life. Towns such as Gordes, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, and Lourmarin have become particularly popular among those seeking authenticity without sacrificing comfort. The appeal lies in the everyday experience as much as the scenery.

Mallorca, Spain

Mallorca has evolved far beyond its reputation as a seasonal holiday destination. Areas such as Deià, Sóller, and Pollensa attract visitors looking for exceptional weather, beautiful landscapes, and a strong culinary scene. Luxury properties, private villas, and excellent transport connections make the island highly practical for longer stays.

Lisbon, Portugal

Lisbon continues to attract international residents thanks to its combination of culture, accessibility, and lifestyle. Historic architecture, coastal proximity, and a thriving food scene create broad appeal. The city's walkability and year-round climate make it particularly attractive for those seeking a European base.

St. Moritz, Switzerland

While often associated with winter sports, St. Moritz increasingly attracts visitors throughout the year. Summer hiking, wellness, dining, and cultural events complement its world-famous ski season. The combination of infrastructure, scenery, and discretion makes it one of Europe's most desirable alpine destinations.

Why Longer Stays Are Growing in Popularity

Travellers increasingly value immersion over itineraries. Extended stays allow for deeper experiences, greater flexibility, and the opportunity to enjoy destinations in ways that are simply not possible during shorter visits.

Testmonials

Testimonials provided by current clients of Robertson Stephens. Testimonials may not be representative of the experience of other customers and are no guarantee of future performance or success.

We have been clients of Michael Tierney for over 15 years. Michael stays well attuned to the various market issues and specifically follows strategists who have proven track records and philosophies. His frequent news emails have been especially helpful in keeping us informed of market happenings with his ongoing thoughts and educating us. On a more personal note, Michael has always been easily approachable, encouraging us to call anytime to answer questions or entertain ideas. There have also been personal business visits during which we appreciate Michael’s warmth and friendliness. His assistants through the years have also been very helpful in handling any necessary matters.

Client of over 15 years

Avi and his team have functioned as a private office for me, extending my capacities by managing my personal wealth and advising me on anything finance-related. Whenever I pose a question to them or ask them to handle a task, I know that it will be done promptly with consistent communication, the utmost skill, and great integrity. I could not have hired a better team. I don’t know what I would have done without Avi. When a sudden liquidity event completely transformed the scale of my wealth, Avi was there to help me navigate all of the new questions and opportunities. My prior wealth plan went out the window, and I had to make decisions about investing, taxes, estate lawyers, risk, charitable donations, supporting my family, and even personal security. Avi helped me navigate all those things, connecting me with the best possible advisors and giving me the support I needed to make informed decisions.

Client since 2019

When I selected Mike Tierney (and Robertson Stephens) several years ago to assume responsibility for helping me manage my assets, I did so based on the recommendation of a friend whose judgment I trusted (who already had retained Mike), the reputation of the firm, and my decision to go with someone where I would be dealing directly with the advisor, not some large organization where I would be relegated to a junior officer for most of my interactions. What a smart decision I made. Mike continues to be a knowledgeable and thoughtful student of the market, a patient and available advisor, and a willing participant in regular and frequent conversations about the decisions that need to be made, the likely movements in the market, and the best way to achieve my (personal) goals. On top of that, he is a pleasure to deal with, always responsive to my concerns and needs, and his support staff carries out my requests and effects transfers/payments/analyses, etc., promptly as I request them. This may sound like hyperbole, but to my great pleasure, it is all fact.

Questions
Can Robertson Stephens help me create a financial plan?

Yes. Every financial plan at Robertson Stephens is completely customized to you. Our advisors conduct an in-depth discovery process to understand your specific needs, goals, and concerns, then build a bespoke wealth plan tailored to your unique situation - covering everything from your risk profile to your tax sensitivity, liquidity needs, and even your personal values.

How does Robertson Stephens manage investments?

We build personalized portfolios based on your specific situation, including your risk tolerance, tax sensitivity, liquidity needs, and values. We use a disciplined approach that balances long-term growth strategies with short-term opportunities when they make sense. We continuously monitor your investments and adjust as needed, drawing on institutional-quality research and due diligence.

Is Robertson Stephens fee-only, fee-based or commission-based?

We work on a fee-based model, which means our compensation is tied to the assets we manage for you rather than commissions on products we sell. This aligns our interests with yours - when your portfolio grows, we do better too. The specific fee structure varies by client based on your situation and needs.
