Before the birth of her daughter Olympia, Serena Williams had the perfect babymoon with her husband and friends. The tennis queen chose Monaco for the vacation and also went out to watch the F1 race that was on during her visit. Serena stayed in an exclusive hotel that boasts quite a regal history.

Serena had her bridal shower in early May 2017. She then flew out for a vacation in Monaco the same month. She arrived at the Monaco GP in style as she cruised through the blue waters with her friends and husband Alexis Ohanian, the Reddit cofounder, in an Aston Martin AM 37 powerboat. Serena and Alexis posted pictures from the locations they visited, including the famous Chateau Eza hotel.

As per Architectural Digest’s report, “The luxury hotel, which has only 14 rooms and suites, used to be the residence of a Swedish prince, and the elegant decor exudes a feeling of royalty. The rooms feature a unique design in various colors that are traditionally considered regal: shades of blue, red, green, purple, and gray are all livened up with gold accents.”

Momma Smash even hung out with Hollywood superstar Chris Hemsworth and posted the pictures on her Instagram.
