Galentine's Day Staycation at The Loews Coral Gables

I recently did a Galentines themed staycation with Louie and my friend Angie at the Loews Coral Gables. Centrally located, The Loews Coral Gables is located in the heart of The Plaza Coral Gables. Loews Coral Gables Hotel offers a refined level of hospitality just four blocks from the Gables’ iconic Miracle Mile. Miracle Mile is the main street with a handful of shops and restaurants, anywhere from casual to fine dining.   

 

The Loews Coral Gables offers an amazing restaurant, Americana Kitchen, as well as a spa & fitness center, a 9th-floor rooftop pool and outdoor bar area pool cabanas featuring full food and beverage service. There is also an oversized event deck with panoramic downtown Coral Gables views. This modern hotel exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely be back for a staycation! The Loews is also just ten minutes away from a fabulous outdoor shopping mall, Shops At Merrick Park. 

We also visited Coral Gables' sister city, Coconut Grove, which is farther east, on the water, for a Galentine's Day brunch at Level 6. Level 6 is a rooftop restaurant, which specializes in fun cocktails and a modern Spanish cuisine, offering stunning water views. Overall, this was a fantastic staycation, and Coral Gables will forever be one of my favorite parts of Miami because it is so classy and beautiful with a lot of history.

NYC IN JANUARY & THE NEW LOUIS VUITTON FLAGSHIP STORE

 

I flew to NYC two weeks ago to visit the new Louis Vuitton store on 57th Street. The store was absolutely Gorgeousss, and well worth the trip and 15 degree weather. It was a brutally cold week, but I have no problem navigating through the cold for fashion. 

 

I also managed to visit my favorite store in the world, Bergdorf Goodman, where I found the cutest pair of Chanel shoes that I will be wearing all Summer long. An afternoon visit to The Champagne Bar at the Plaza Hotel was definitely on my bucket list, and I am so glad I went. Watch the entire two day fashion adventure on my newest NYC Vlog.

Miami Beach Winter Staycation

 

A few weeks ago, I went to South Beach for the ultimate staycation. I have a top five favorite list of hotels in Miami Beach, and the Loews Hotel Miami Beach, located on Collins, in the heart of South Beach, is on that list. I finally had the opportunity to stay at this amazing resort, and it did not disappoint. 

The VIP check in starts you off for a fantastic and relaxing experience with snacks, champagne, and a very welcoming staff. After a quick check in, Louie and I went up to our ocean front room. I always say, if you can't see the ocean from your Miami Beach hotel room, it's not a vacation. I love seeing the ocean from my balcony, and waking up to it, and seeing the pink skies reflecting the sunset from the West at magic hour- it's the best thing, and it completely relaxes you.  

The highlights of the Loews Miami Beach for me were the spa, the fabulous & famous old school Italian restaurant, RAO's.(Seriously, the best Italian food!), and Soak, the private adult-only pool area. I would go back here just to experience any of those experiences again. I can't even begin to tell you how good the food was at RAO's, especially the Italian salad, and the meatballs. Luckily, it's opened to the public, so anyone can dine at this old school Italian restaurant originally from New York. I will definitely be back for dinner in the future! 

I most definitely enjoyed sitting pool side at the hotel's adult-only private cabana's called, Soak. I am a foodie, so the menu was very impressive. I spent hours eating delicious food and sipping virgin strawberry daiquiris. It was so peaceful, and even though I am more of a beach person, I didn't even make it to the beach this stay, because the pool was so fabulous. I even brought my laptop and worked in between sun bathing. 

I highly recommend the Loews South Beach because it's an entire resort, and you really never have to leave since they offer everything. They also offer a fabulous lobby bar, a lobby gift shop, and a great breakfast spot called Preston's. You can't go wrong booking a trip or staycation like I did at the Loews Miami Beach- I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking to visit Miami Beach.
