Hawaii is a dream destination for a plethora of travel and beach-loving souls. So I have decided to compile a list of helpful travel tips for my readers and fans that are considering a visit to the string of some of the most beautiful and versatile islands in the United States!
When it comes to South Beach hotels, the Betsy Hotel certainly portrays poise and elegance, located in the famed Art Deco district on Ocean Drive. This is a luxury hotel, upscale restaurant, lavish poolside bar and exotic garden spa all in one location.
There are 63 elegantly appointed rooms at the Betsy, all of which are private, beachside jewels with elaborate and creative design, and of course, every modern amenity. The décor is decidedly tropical, yet not tacky. A main attraction is the courtyard pool, where you can indulge in delectable specialty cocktails that will melt away your every worry. Light fare is offered poolside.
Oak Street- Oak Street is known as the most prestigious and high end shopping street and district in the entire Midwest. What makes it so great for Chicagoans is that you have the variety of Michigan Avenue, which is literally only 5 steps away, yet without all of the tourist crowds and commotion. Oak Street has some of the most affluent big names such as Prada and Pratesi as well as popular clothing stores such as BCBG and Juicy Couture. Barney’s New York has their new and improved location at the western end of the strip and other luxurious notables are David Yurman, Hermes, and Vera Wang. It is definitely the best shopping location to see and be seen, and to enjoy the beauty of Chicago’s Gold Coast.
The Trump hotel collection has just opened its latest posh location, in SoHo New York. Yes, everyone knows that South Hampton is a luxurious location, and it has just gotten more so with the introduction of a Trump hotel. The Trump hotel is located at 246 Spring Street, and is a dramatic addition to the city skyline.
Trump hotels are notorious for their attention to detail, very exquisite detail might we mention. The luxury hotel in South Hampton opened its doors on April 9th, 2010 and features 391 elegantly appointed suites and rooms. There are a mere 12 rooms per floor, for exclusive privacy, the ultimate escape. There are also no less than ten luxury two-bedroom penthouse suites, the most in New York City. Well, we expect nothing less from Trump.
For those who know, a luxury yacht is quite possibly the most divine and complete escape from reality available. For those who do not, allow us to introduce the 75-foot Sunseeker Manhattan, one of the best luxury sports yacht charters available.
Sunseeker is one of the most trusted brands in the luxury yacht industry, and has been around for decades “wowing” the world with their engineering and design. Sunseeker is such a popular brand that you can see Sunseeker yachts peppered throughout the intracoastal waterways of South Florida, and in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. We are certain the brand is every bit as popular overseas, too!
I am a fan of your website and blog. I have been following your stuff for almost a year, thanks for the information and entertainment. There is one issue that I have not seen covered in your blog, and that is Miami during the summer.
I have been told that it is too hot to take a trip to Miami in the summer, and was curious about your take on that advice. It would seem that the hotter the better with the Ocean and luxury hotel pools to soak in. I am overdue for a mini-vacation, and was contemplating a quick trip to Miami to rejuvenate. Let me know your thoughts on the matter.
The First World Hotel is located in Genting, which also happens to be home to the largest resort in the world. We are getting the distinct impression that Genting likes to do things big.
So it certainly seems fitting that one of the world’s largest hotels graces the world’s largest resort. The First World Hotel boasts a staggering 6,118 rooms, making it the third largest hotel in the world in terms of number of rooms. We wonder how large their maid staff is…
Move over Mickey Mouse, the world’s fastest theme park is set to make history in 2010, in the form of “Ferrari World”. We even like the way the words feel rolling off of our tongues…Ferrari World.
The only unfortunate thing about Ferrari World so far is that it is so far…away. Ferrari World is located in Abu Dhabi, which is no problem save the fact that it is on the opposite side of the planet.
Just because you do not exactly have millions of dollars does not mean you cannot indulge in some of the perks that millionaires do. Renting luxury items such as exotic cars, luxury properties and even yachts are all ways to experience life on a grander scale, without the burdens of actually investing. Today we will outline why chartering a luxury yacht trumps owning one.
Naturally this theory does not apply to those who wish to actually live aboard their luxury yacht, or spend at least part of the year on it. The concept of renting a luxury yacht applies to those who simply want to escape for a few weeks per year, without dropping millions on a yacht, and even more in regular maintenance.
In the world of luxury hotels, few hotels have come close to the Fountainbleau South Beach’s $1 billion dollar renovation (yes, that is a “b”, not an “m”). Yes, this complete update and renovation took approximately 2 years, and in the end, there were two $1 million dollar chandeliers dangling in the lobby. (that time they were “m’s”). Let’s analyze further.
