I discovered a cool London boutique hotel, not surprisingly given it’s high tech features, on Instagram recently. With their fun Instagram feeds, friendly online personality and reputation as one of the most high-tech hotels in the world, I was thrilled when Eccleston Square Hotel invited me to come check out all of their amenities for […]
Arosa: The Perfect Ski Getaway
Seemingly dropped in to a bowl, Arosa is a postcard-perfect Swiss village with dazzling 360-degree views of the Graubünden mountains. Arosa isn’t a mega-resort – you know, the ones with hundreds of kilometers of pistes – and that’s perfect for me as I’m here to attempt to learn to snowboard. There are still a great […]
The Secret Movie Theater at One Aldwych
I have a confession. After a day running around sightseeing, hiking, kayaking or whatever latest adventure it is that we’re researching, I’m exhausted! I long ago was over the nightlife scene and it might sound lame, but I’m often more than happy to just order room service and stay in. So when One Aldwych, a luxe 5-star […]
Beach Bummin’ at The Shores Resort & Spa

You Know You Love Me – XOXO, The Empire Hotel
I’ll admit it – I’m a Gossip Girl fan. When Sex and the City ended, I was aching for something to replace it. Gossip Girl had many of the same elements: fashion and New York City as characters themselves. And “The Empire Hotel”, Chuck Bass’ hotel and Upper West Side home, played its own role. […]

A Glam Getaway to Anantara Rasananda Koh Phangan
Our boat bounced along the Gulf of Thailand as we sped toward the remote island of Koh Phangan. Like that scene in Jurassic Park as the helicopter zooms toward Isla Nublar, an island with craggy cliffs, dense jungle, and idyllic coves of white sand loomed before us. The island is most known for its world […]
12 Spectacular Rooms With a View
Rooms with a view are ones you want to hang out spending time in. Think dreamy over water bungalows you can dive right in to the ocean from and stunning castles surrounded by dreamy countryside. We’ve certainly stayed in our share, and we’re always searching for more spectacular rooms with a view. But for now, […]
9 Reasons to Love Astra Suites Santorini
Santorini is a magical and mysterious place. Even Plato thought so and based his story about the lost city of Atlantis on the island’s own lost city of ancient Akrotiri. We had so many magical discoveries of our own on the island during our Santorini and Folegandros trip – the incredible food, the wine, stunning […]
