Pink Sand? Green Sand? Black Sand, Oh My!

The impending gloom of winter is upon us, but these different shades of sand will lighten up your mood and inspire your next beach vacation or weekend getaway. The wide spectrum of sand hues, that are sure to make a splash on your Instagram feed, are caused by erosion from nearby landscapes, volcanic eruptions, and sometimes decades of crushed up sea shells. In return, we have stunning colored sand beaches to feast our eyes on. From bright white to pink, red, and green...what color do you see in your future?

Some of our favorite historic properties—including the delcoronado in San Diego—are said to be haunted by the ghosts of guests past. In the case of the Del, the spirit of Kate Morgan, who checked into the iconic resort in 1892, is believed to have never left. (Though with some of the best beachfront access anywhere in California, we can’t say we blame her for wanting to stay at the property forever.) Tell us, would you stay at a haunted hotel?

We’ve said it once, and we’ll say it again: biking is one of the best ways to explore destinations both new and familiar. 🚴🏽‍♀️ And viceroyhotels seems to agree. The hotel group has just launched a selection of curated routes out of its hotels in Santa Monica, Chicago, Washington D.C., and the Algarve, Portugal, with cycling brand Rapha. Designed for serious bikers and leisurely riders alike, each guided route is designed to get lost in the hidden corners of each destination and connect with local communities in a way you can’t on four wheels.

You’ve heard of Michelin Stars, but what about Michelin Keys? Earlier this month, Michelin awarded its second-ever group of Keys to outstanding hotels and resorts in over 100 countries across every continent (save Antarctica). Included on the list with a top three-Key designation is South Africa’s stunning royalmalewane — which debuted the new Masiya’s Camp, pictured here, earlier this year.

Check the link in our bio for the full list of newly keyed properties…and while you’re there, sign up for our newsletter: more bucket-list worthy hotel recommendations are coming your way later this week.

Calling all audiophiles. 🎧 Checking into the new Darsena Listening Suite at ilsereno in Lake Como needs to be on your bucket list. It’s outfitted with heritage-grade analog equipment, including horn speakers, tube amps, a turntable, a vintage reel-to-reel deck, and a vinyl library 500+ records deep—oh, and stunning views of the lake from an oversized private terrace, of course.
