Destination Spotlight Map

Tucked into the blue waters of Lake Huron, Mackinac Island isn’t just a destination — it’s a mood, a feeling, and a step back in time.

If you’ve only got 24 hours in Manhattan and you want something utterly unforgettable, skip the tourist traps and head for a slice of Italy tucked discreetly into the brightest corner of the world: Buchette Del Vino, Times Square’s most delicious little secret.

Tucked along the southwestern curve of Rhode Island’s coast, where the Atlantic brushes gently against sand and storybook villages, lies Westerly—a destination that proves that not all gems need polish to shine. Known affectionately as The Pearl of the Ocean State, Westerly combines historic charm, barefoot luxury, and seaside sophistication in a way only New England can.

Nestled into an incognito brick façade, is a state of the art, four story Imaginarium. Every floor dedicated to an interactive, hands-on experience that me, the art class dunce, imbibed in with glee.

Nestled on Mexico’s Riviera Maya, Tulum has blossomed into a dreamy fusion of boho-luxury, wellness, and ancient mystique—and now it’s more accessible than ever thanks to its brand-new international airport.

Savannah absolutely stole my heart. There’s something timeless about it. The moss-draped oaks, the cobblestone squares, the wraparound porches. It’s like the city leans in and whispers, “Slow down. Take your time.”

Perched where the sun first kisses Europe, Lisbon invites you to slow down, sip slowly, and love deeply. With its cobblestone streets, sun-warmed tiled façades, and the scent of sea breeze mixed with baked custard, Lisbon doesn’t ask for your attention. It seduces it. And if you let it, this city will romance you until you forget what time even is.

Nestled where the Sea of Cortez kisses the Pacific, Los Cabos is made up of two distinct yet equally captivating towns—Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo. Between them lies a stretch of luxury, adventure, serenity, and seduction.

Opened in 1957, this replica of a, well, wild west city in Byram Township, NJ looks like it hasn’t been touched since, taking you way back to Dodge, complete with stagecoach ride, Main Street bar brawls, (staged of course), train ride, teepees, saloon, general store and blacksmith shop.

Samrock Farms in Howell, NJ opened my already ½ opened eyes to the gorgeous heart of a trusting animal. Chickens, horses, donkeys, cows, oh the beautiful cows, rescued from slaughter by owners Jules and Angel, are a reminder of the simple love and empathy each creature of God needs.

There are places you stumble upon that feel like they were designed just for you. Then there’s Cherry Creek, Colorado—a place so stylish, so savory, so effortlessly chic that it doesn’t feel stumbled upon at all. It feels curated.

Lately, though, Florida has stolen our hearts—specifically Indian Rocks Beach, where the weather reminds us of Aruba.

But did you know that not all White House tours are created equal? And there are ways to craft the very best tour available.

Sometimes travel adventures are found in unusual places. As my children are getting older, I’m discovering this with every visit to a cultural institution, historic battlefield, and even the sites where classic movies have been shot. We recently discovered that one specific location held all three of these.
