Trump Chicago

When the Trump Hotel Chicago opened in 2008, the goal was to create a landmark in Chicago; a landmark noted as much for its luxury as for its profile against the Chicago sky. Donald Trump and the Trump Hotel Collection have succeeded.

Trump Hotel Chicago is the only place to stay in the Windy City for the discriminating traveler unwilling to settle for anything but the absolute best. At 92 stories, the tower offers 486 luxury residential suites and 339 equally luxurious guest rooms. Each of the units boasts spectacular views of Lake Michigan, the Chicago River, or the city itself.

 Accommodation Choices

The hotel offers four levels of accommodations, beginning with the Deluxe Guestroom. The Deluxe room starts with 600 square feet of living space including 10-foot floor to ceiling windows. Rooms include dual king or queen beds with Italian Bellino linens, custom furnishings, writing desk, and a spacious seating area. Guests also enjoy a limestone finished bathroom complete with stone topped vanities, deep soaking tub, and separate shower with waterfall shower head. These bathrooms set themselves apart from other luxury hotels.

The next level of accommodation is the Spa Guest room, designed for guests wishing to combine luxury accommodations with a unique spa experience. Spa Guest rooms include direct access to the hotel spa, decor specifically designed to encourage relaxation, signature bath amenities, and more.

Trump Hotel Chicago offers Deluxe Suites and Grande Deluxe Swedes as their top tier accommodations. Both suite levels are intended to provide all of the comforts of home in the middle of a world-class city. Suites include fully equipped kitchens, separate bedrooms, large closets and master baths, custom-designed furnishings, fireplaces and more.

The Weekender Bag from Everlane
For those short trips, you need a bag with enough space, but one that is not bulky and cumbersome. We suspect you also want a bag that combines durability with class and style. After testing it out for a few weekend trips we’ve determined the Weekender from Everlane may just be what you’re looking for.

This all-canvas bag is beautifully designed and includes leather zipper pulls, beautiful leather accents, and a unique two-strap leather handle that works equally well over shoulder or carried in the hands. The waterproof lining gives you extra protection on those rainy days.

The bag comes in 9 flavors (colors), and is affordably priced at $95. (Our favorite colors are the reverse denim and the grey with navy blue strip).

Visit Every Three-Star Michelin Restaurant in the World for $275KIf you had $275K lying around, would you do?

The Michelin restaurant package includes airfare, accommodations and dining in 12 different countries. Over the six-month trip, guests will be visiting more than 100 world-class restaurants at a rate of one every other day.

The car rental industry has remained largely unchanged for decades. However, if you are willing to try something new, there’s a better way to rent a car thanks to a company named Silvercar. The name comes from the fact that the company rents only one type of luxury vehicle: a silver Audi A4. Not only that, the process is insanely simple.

Here’s how it works:

  • Download an app to your smart phone
  • Set up your profile, make your reservation
  • When you arrive at the airport walk directly to the lot, scan the QR code, and drive away
  • Upon departure, park your car in the lot and go directly to the airport terminal

With Silvercar, there are no counters, no attendants, and no hassle. It is the simplest and easiest way to rent a car. Currently Silver car services Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Houston. We’re hoping for more cities soon.

Four Seasons Maui Wailea 14

On the southern coast of Maui sits one of the most loved resort areas in all of Hawaii. The site is known for the best vacations spots in the region, including the Four Seasons Maui at Wailea. Since 1990 the Four Seasons Maui at Wailea has won the AAA Five Diamond Award, every single year, and it is the first and only Maui resort to be rated as a Forbes Five-Star property.

The hotel boasts 380 guest rooms including a selection of suites at various levels. Best of all, eighty-five percent of the rooms include stunning ocean views. And at 600 square feet, the hotel’s standard guest rooms offer the most space of any hotel in Hawaii. Guests enjoy amenities including 24-hour room service, twice-daily maid service, overnight shoe service, free wireless internet, and so much more.

Serenity Pool

One of the many things that set the Four Seasons Maui apart is their selection of three incredible swimming pools. The resort’s signature pool is known as the Serenity Pool. The 2,650 square foot pool sits on the southern end of the property and features gorgeous views of Lana’i and the West Maui Mountain. This peaceful infinity pool combines the beauty of nature with the elegance of minimalist design features. The Serenity Pool has 60-poolside lounge chairs available, so it’s important to get to the pool earlier in the morning (or else you risk getting on a list for the next available spot). The experience at this pool is like none other. In addition to the stunning views and beautiful pool, it’s the small things that the staff does that set it apart. During the visit guests were treated to chilled towels, Evian water spritz, Otter Pops popsicles, as well as what felt like water service every 30 minutes to ensure guests were fully hydrated. Some other features of the pool include: an underwater music system, freestanding and swim-up bars, four bubble loungers, poolside massages (for a fee), and six 160-square foot luxury cabanas (for a fee).
