Check out this perfectly countrified
Federal manor in the Hudson Valley. I came across the impeccably
revamped rustic 1790s gem on Travels with Clara, but there’s a three-night-minimum snag. I think I’ll tuck it away for a trip when we have more time to enjoy it.
The Details
Three bedrooms; $400 a night (minimum three nights). Major chef’s
kitchen, including Viking stove and all the tools of...
1. Huge Rooms. The Ritz-Carlton, Denver says it has
the largest guest rooms among any downtown hotels; the Deluxe Guest
Rooms start at 550 square feet, so I believe that claim (that’s bigger
than my first studio apartment). The One-Bedroom Suite I stayed in was
huge, with pretty hardwood flooring in the entryway and warm,
contemporary, decor. The marble bathroom with deep soaking tub was
quite b...
Growing up on opposite coasts, my husband and I had parallel
fantasies of leaving our suburban childhoods behind for the “civilized”
life: We would be rich and European, ideally with a manor thrown in.
These (now slightly embarrassing) imaginings may be in check, but the
pull of a life right out of the pages of The World of Interiors is still strong. So, while on a trip to Dublin with our...
As you drive through the tiny, perfect Irish village of Enniskerry on your way to the Ritz-Carlton Powerscourt,
you notice adorable restaurants like Poppie’s, Nancy Murphy’s Pub, and
Emilia’s, and start making plans to try all of them. When you drive
through the tree-lined, green-lined road and arrive, you feel like
you’re entering a movie set of Ireland, which makes sense since Braveheart...
I recently had the chance to chat with Sarah Fazendin of Travel Marketing Worldwide. I honestly haven't met anyone like Sarah in the past few years, with such a passion for Africa, family travel, client relations and an amazing work ethic that is tough to find today. One minute talking to her and hearing her talk so dynamically about African travel and and you'll want to plan a trip to...

The name "Whistler" always felt so glamorous to me. One of my best
friends from high school would ski Whistler every year and I'd see her
pictures of gorgeous mountains, happy group shots, and great meals and
I knew I had to go. I had previously visited in the glorious summer
season, but was so excited to try the winter activities. After we drove the stunning Sea-to-Sky Highway and arr...
I first stayed at "The Princess" when I was 9 years old and visiting
Arizona from Rhode Island. Back then, the hotel was out in the middle
of nowhere, surrounded by cacti and not much else, but I fell in love.
My family moved to Scottsdale when I was 10 and the Princess has always
been a part of our lives.
Today, it is the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess, retaining its Arizona
heritage bu...
Vancouver and Whistler are beautiful year-round destinations, offering some of its most beautiful weather in the summer.
VancouverMy first stop was Vancouver. The Four Seasons Vancouver is situated atop the Pacific Centre shopping
complex, within walking distance of the Vancouver Art Gallery, and a
mere ten minute drive from Granville Island, a great place to head when you've got a couple h...
Panama City Beach is surprisingly a holiday haven for families & offers great value in a Father's Day Getaway.We found that PCB was an incredible–and somewhat undiscovered–beach
destination made for families. Not only are there miles and miles of
beautiful white sand beaches but there are also plenty of fun
attractions that the whole family will enjoy. Here are some of our
