Paris Hilton’s Sardinia Yacht Vacation Is the Ultimate Sardinia Summer Escape

Paris Hilton is making the case for Sardinia as this summer’s must-visit Italian coastal escape. The 45-year-old shared a carousel of photos and clips on Instagram documenting a family getaway aboard a luxury Sunreef Yachts catamaran off the Sardinian coast, captioning the post: “Another dreamy summer aboard @SunreefYachts with my #CutesieCrew.”

Sardinia, the Mediterranean’s second-largest island, has become a magnet for high-end yacht travel thanks to its clear turquoise waters, dramatic granite coastline and marinas like Porto Cervo on the exclusive Costa Smeralda, long a favorite anchorage for celebrities and European royalty. Hilton’s photos captured the appeal firsthand: shots of her riding the yacht’s tender boat, lounging on the swim platform, and soaking up the sun on deck with children Phoenix, 3, and London, 2.

Life Aboard a Sunreef Catamaran

The trip showcased the kind of onboard amenities that make catamaran charters increasingly popular for family travel in Italy. Sunreef Yachts, the Polish luxury shipbuilder behind Hilton’s vessel, is known for spacious multi-hull designs that offer more stable sailing and wider deck space than traditional motor yachts — a draw for families traveling with young kids. Hilton wore a black scallop bikini and a “Trophy Wife” cap for the outing, while Phoenix and London matched in white sun hats and blue swimsuits.

Part of a Bigger Summer of Travel

The Sardinia trip caps a busy travel season for Hilton, who brought her children along in June to serve as ceremonial ball-bearers at a FIFA World Cup match between the U.S. and Turkey at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles — an appearance she called an “iconic moment.” Together, the outings reflect a broader travel pattern among celebrity families this year: pairing high-profile public appearances with quieter, ultra-luxury stints at sea.

For travelers looking to follow in Hilton’s wake, late summer remains prime season for Sardinia, with warm Mediterranean waters, long daylight hours, and the Costa Smeralda’s marinas in full swing before the fall charter season winds down.
