There are so many amazing spaces and cool encounters in New York City that naturally some remain hidden to the naked eye, and further exploration is needed. In part, the mission of Fashion Pulse Daily is to draw back the curtain on these gems for you, discovering and sharing the best that New York City and its surrounding environs has to offer by way of fashion, beauty, spa, travel, and home. I would be remiss to not report back on two very special places that execute the epitome of luxury hospitality coupled with an across-the-board mentality of only the highest standards of quality: the newly opened Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown and Four Seasons Hotel New York.

Located in the new “it” section of town bordering Tribeca and the Financial District, the Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown offers 24 sleek, architectural floors carrying 189 guest rooms including 28 suites, all thoughtfully adorned with gorgeous art and decor that elevates a simple walk down the hall into a sensory-captivating stroll.

Of note is CUT by Wolfgang Puck, the celebrated chef’s first restaurant in Manhattan, the first of all of his U.S. outposts to offer three full meal periods, so guests and patrons alike can experience everything from house made granola with lemon yoghurt parfait for breakfast to Tsukiji Market sashimi salad for lunch to a range of Japanese and American USDA prime and grass fed steaks for dinner.

You know that feeling of coming back from vacation, and needing another vacation?  This was the first time in years that I’ve returned from a trip and not felt that urge at all, which means that The Island House is doing everything right! It took my fifth trip to Nassau with my best friend to finally find true paradise: deep relaxation, easy entertainment, state-of-the-art amenities, incredibly delicious food, and the BEST coffee ( a must!).

Urban Oasis, Outdoor Adventure Respite: Four Seasons Denver

Our ideas of what makes a “good trip” can wildly differ, but these aspects are certainly universal: amazing food, incredible views, a comfy bed, and convenience. For my maiden voyage to Colorado, I wanted to embrace the mountains and the city culture alike, while experiencing  the very best of both worlds and not compromising any of the aforementioned items.  It didn’t get much better than hiking around Red Rocks and Garden of the Gods, but spending time biking around Denver while taking a pause to squeeze in some shopping and a whirlpool soak rounded out the visit to the mile-high city.

Crystal Springs Resort: A Tropical Year ‘Round Getaway — In New Jersey!

[Greetings from the water slide in the Biosphere Pool Complex at Grand Cascades Lodge]

Imagine the usual east coast winter, with snow on the ground and a chill in the air, yet you’re poolside in the Biosphere, surrounded by tropical plants and radiating warmth from a special retractable glass roof, that features 100% light transmission for year-round Vitamin D possibilities. Glance outside of the glass complex and you can’t help but take in the incredible mountain view from the Appalachian Valley, either from a lounge chair, the indoor or heated outdoor pool, from the jacuzzi, or on your way down the swirling Biosphere slide. This much needed respite is located under 50 miles from New York City, in Hamburg, New Jersey, and although utilizing the facility as a winter getaway seems the ultimate use of the place, during the summer months the possibilities for relaxation and entertainment seem equally endless.
