French term

coup de coeur

French to English Marketing Tourism & Travel Travel
"NOS COUPS DE COEUR": This common phrase appears in an advertisement of hotels and tours by a company offering accommodations in the Caribbean. I found "favorite" and "very favorite" in the glossaries, but this does not seem appropriate in this advertising context. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

on the other end of the continuum, you can find the \"One from the heart\" title of the movie by FF Coppola (\"Coup de cour\") - you might say \"Those from the hearth\", or \"A few from the heart\" etc.

irresistible, irresistibly charming, marvelous, splendid, etc.

In Belgian they use a lot in house selling: maison coup de coeur. It seems to be something so utterly charming and delightful you won't be able to resist it once you've seen it. Hope this helps a bit.
