East Coast Escapes for a High Class Holiday

Acqualina Resort & Residences
Miami Beach, FL

Acqualina Resort & Residences is all about ultra-luxe living, where Mediterranean grandeur meets modern refinement. The lobby is a vision in white, accented by marble floors, grand columns, and sumptuous furniture from Fendi Casa. The pool area is a sanctuary, offering guests the choice between crimson-red loveseats and private cabanas. The Forbes Five Star spa is particularly notable as well, with state-of-the-art treatment rooms, relaxation lounges, a private Royal Spa Suite for special occasions, and an outdoor terrace. When it comes to dining, the resort doesn't disappoint: Costa Grill offers ocean views right on the beach, while Il Mulino New York, Avra, and Ke-uH serve up refined Italian, Greek, and Japanese Fusion food, respectively. The rooms, starting at a spacious 750 square feet, are adorned with Italian marble floors and Vena Oro marble vanities, all while offering ocean views that make the Atlantic seem like your own private sea.

The Standard, High Line
New York, NY

Towering over The High Line in New York City’s bustling Meatpacking District. The Standard High Line is an enduring downtown hot spot—and for good reason. The hotel's electric public spaces, restaurants, and nightlife venues draw guests and locals alike, from the German biergarten on the ground floor to the famous rooftop discothèque Le Bain. The wood-clad rooms have serious appeal, boasting floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows with stunning city and river views and nice-to-have amenities like cozy hooded robes, Davines bath amenities, and overstocked minibars.

Take Me There

Boston Harbor Hotel
Boston, MA

The Boston Harbor Hotel is your gateway to experiencing Boston like never before. Perfectly situated in the heart of downtown, this hotel is a stone's throw from iconic sites like the Boston Tea Party location and the Freedom Trail. Opt for a harbor view suite and you'll be treated to 570 square feet of luxury, complete with marble baths and smart TVs. For a taste of New England, dine at Rowes Wharf Sea Grille, where local, seasonal cuisine like Maine lobster and butternut squash take center stage. Unwind at the Rowes Wharf Bar with craft cocktails or take a dip in the 60-foot lap pool. We highly recommend visiting for the Boston Wine & Food Festival, a taste of the best cuisine New England has to offer running through the end of March, which hosts many of its events on-site at the hotel. The Reserve Dinners, in particular, are a treat.

Hotel Effie
Sandestin, FL

Home to the only rooftop pool on the Emerald Coast and four food and beverage establishments helmed by celebrity chef Hugh Acheson, Hotel Effie Sandestin is a true gem on the shores of Choctawhatchee Bay in Northwest Florida. The new 250-room lifestyle hotel features a full-service spa on-site for maximum pampering, private shuttle service to over seven miles of powdery white beaches on the Gulf of Mexico, and access to four championship golf courses designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr., Rees Jones, and Tom Jackson. For travelers looking for refined Southern hospitality on the Panhandle, Hotel Effie offers an experience like no other.

MADE Hotel
New York, NY

Tucked away in New York City's chic NoMad neighborhood, MADE Hotel offers guests an oasis of style and creativity. Like stepping into the carefully-curated townhouse of a tasteful friend, the space is filled with touches of design ingenuity, from the shibori textiles and patterned throw pillows in the lobby to the anodized bronze, brass, and walnut racking system in the rooms. The accommodations are an exercise in urban sophistication, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, and divine Leesa Hybrid mattresses. Culinary exploration awaits at Debajo, a Spanish-inspired tapas haven, and Good Behavior, the 18th-floor lounge offering panoramic city views along with their delicious cocktails. The hotel's seamless blend of design-forward minimalism and warm hospitality invites guests to slow down and immerse themselves in a uniquely crafted environment.
