A WORLD WELL LIVED


A New Altitude
Images courtesy of Otto Aviation There is a particular moment in aviation when progress stops looking incremental and begins to feel architectural—when the shape itself suggests a different way of thinking. The Phantom 3500, developed by Otto Aerospace, belongs to that category. At first glance, it appears unfamiliar. No visible windows. A smooth, uninterrupted fuselage. A silhouette that feels closer to a concept than a finished aircraft. That impression is intentional. Th


48 Hours in Mystic
Where heritage is woven with salt air, culinary mastery, luminous art, and the quiet magic of rivers meeting sea. You arrive at Delamar Mystic in that golden stretch between day and dusk, when the river seems to hold its breath and the town glows in reflected light. This isn’t a hotel that merely sits in Mystic — it carries the town’s story in its bones. Walls in the public spaces are adorned with nautical pieces drawn from the personal collection of Charles Mallory, a descen


The Reimagined Lobby at The Chanler

The Chanler at Cliff Walk recently unveiled a transformation of its lobby and guest spaces that feels less like a renovation and more like a gentle awakening, blending Gilded Age bones with a spirited, modern pulse. The arrival experience centers on a reception desk of scalloped white oak, accented with hammered brass and glowing onyx. Behind it, twenty brass keys hang in a luminous d


Soho House Palm Springs: Desert Oasis

For those who have long sought a sanctuary where mid-century modernism meets an elite creative community, the wait is nearly over. Soho House has officially confirmed its expansion into the Coachella Valley, with a highly anticipated opening in Palm Springs slated for 2027. This move signals a new chapter for the brand’s California footprint, joining the ranks of its iconic outpo


The New Luxury Escape Isn’t a Hotel
For years, luxury travel followed a familiar formula: arrive, check in, disappear. Now, something quieter—and far more interesting—is taking its place. The most in-demand escapes right now don’t begin with a concierge desk. They begin with land. Welcome to the rise of regenerative farm stays —where luxury isn’t about excess, but about connection. And increasingly, that’s exactly the point. Travelers are moving away from passive, perfectly curated experiences and toward someth


Before the Sails Catch Wind
Orient Express hasn’t even set sail yet, but that hasn’t stopped it from thinking several voyages ahead. With a new slate of itineraries unveiled for 2027, the storied name—now under the Accor umbrella—is making it clear that the future of sea travel will be as much about imagination as it is about movement. At the center of this next chapter are two sailing yachts, Corinthian and Olympian , designed to reintroduce romance, restraint, and true craftsmanship to the open wate


Barefoot Luxury & Island Soul: A Journey Through The Abaco Club
Photo Credit : The Abaco Club Some places are beautiful, and some places feel like a secret whispered just to you. The Abaco Club—a private, 500-acre retreat on Great Abaco Island—manages to be both. It’s a sanctuary where “barefoot luxury” isn’t a slogan; it’s a way of life. A place where the turquoise water looks airbrushed, the homes blend effortlessly into nature, and every person, from members to staff, welcomes you as if you’ve always belonged. Some of my days began the


BEYOND THE LOBBY : A Collector’s Journey Through Delamar
FROM MONUMENTAL BRONZES TO BESPOKE WALLPAPERS AND CONTEMPORARY INSTALLATIONS EACH DELAMAR HOTEL BECOMES A LIVING GALLERY HONORING MARITIME LEGACY, CELEBRATING MODERN ARTISTRY, AND INVITING GUESTS TO DISCOVER BEAUTY IN EVERY DETAIL. Charles Mallory has an eye for art and classic cars, which he collects, and even women’s compacts, which he has branded. But what he primarily has an eye for and on is Connecticut’s Delamar Hotel Collection, which he founded in 2000, serving as own


The Vineta Hotel, Palm Beach
A whisper of old-world glamour meets fresh modern elegance in Palm Beach’s most anticipated hotel rebirth: The Vineta Hotel. Slated to open in 2025 under the prestigious Oetker Collection, this marks the brand’s first U.S. “Masterpiece Hotel,” and it’s already turning heads. Located just two blocks off Worth Avenue, Vineta will reintroduce itself with only 41 rooms (down from 57), ensuring each space feels intimate and impeccably designed. The restoration is led by Paris-base

The hotel will feature 191 guest rooms and suites, providing a tranquil haven with spectacular views of the Cooper River. Guests will be able to enjoy a s


EASE, ELEVATED: Finding Stillness at Azura, Bermuda
WHERE OCEANFRONT LUXURY MEETS EFFORTLESS ISLAND RHYTHM, AND EVERY VIEW FEELS LIKE YOUR OWN PRIVATE WORLD. Bermuda has a way of catching you off guard, not because of its beauty (that’s a given), but because of its ease. You can leave the East Coast after breakfast and be swimming in turquoise water by lunch. With direct flights from Charlotte and Westchester, this Atlantic gem is one of the most effortless escapes from the U.S., and yet, when your driver winds along the coast


Saks Turns the Lights Back On
After a year of dimming the dazzle, Fifth Avenue’s most famous façade is ready to shine again — brighter, bolder, and very New York. New York is getting its sparkle back. After taking an unexpected breather in 2024, Saks Fifth Avenue is flipping the switch once again—literally. The iconic holiday light show is officially returning this November, and Fifth Avenue is already buzzing like someone plugged in Christmas early. For nearly two decades, Saks has been the city’s glitte


The Surf Lodge: Where Endless Summer Grows Wings
There are few places that capture the spirit of summer quite like The Surf Lodge. Born in 2008 on the edge of Fort Pond in Montauk, it has become more than a hotel—it’s a cultural moodboard where surf, music, and design collide. What began as a humble beachside stay has evolved into an icon of coastal cool, attracting artists, musicians, and those who understand that the best scenes are built, not branded. Its weathered decks, sunset concerts, and salt-streaked serenity still
