Ask Imagine: Quiet Luxury Hotels South Beach?

Dear Imagine Lifestyles,

I will be coming to Miami and South Beach for a business trip soon, and I am interested in locating a luxury hotel in South Beach that is near all of the restaurants, bars and beaches, yet quiet and understated.  It is important that I have a quiet place to unwind and work during the week, without all of the noise and fuss that make South Beach so much fun.  Where do you suggest I stay?
 

Thanks,

Alan, New York

Ask Imagine: Fishing Charter Vs Luxury Fishing Boat Charter

Dear Imagine Lifestyles,

I see that you offer a variety of boat charters in Miami and am curious to know the difference between a regular fishing charter and your luxury fishing charter? 

I make it down from Chicago a couple of times per year, and always try to make time for a boat rental.  My next trip I will be bringing my new girlfriend, and I want to make sure it is a special and more personalized trip.  We both enjoy fishing (I am a lucky man), so any information would be helpful.
 

Imagine Lifestyles Luxury RentalsThanks,
Bruce, Chicago

New Luxury Golf & Spa Resort Beckons From Sicily

A new slice of luxury arrived in Sicily last March, in the form of Verdura Golf & Spa Resort.  This new luxury golf course is poised to draw in new crowds to soak in the serenity of the Mediterranean, oh, and perhaps squeeze in a few rounds of golf and a massage.

Well, in my opinion, location is nearly everything when it comes to a successful golf course, and the location on one of Itay’s most world-renowned islands should provide an adequate catapult into success.

Ask Imagine: Is Miami too Hot to Visit in the Summer?

Dear Imagine Lifestyles,

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. 

Imagine Lifestyles Luxury RentalsI 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.

Thanks,
Peter, New York

Chill Out in Luxury-Stay in an Igloo

We love luxury hotels, exotic rental cars, and all things luxury.  Yet we also have quite a fixation with aAdrian Gunter of Iglu Dorf Ice Hotelll things that are oddly luxury, like Iglu-Dorf.  Iglu-Dorf is exactly what it sounds like-it is an igloo in the Swiss Alps where skiers and visitors can stay in an actual igloo!  The concept is very exotic and well, obviously cool.

This igloo hotel is perched at high altitudes (2,700 meters above sea level) above Zermatt, in the Swiss Alps.  Everyone knows the Swiss Alps are an excellent skiing destination, but now they also offer the exotic experience of sleeping in an actual igloo.
