Paraíso de la Bonita is redefining luxury

Basketball, Sport, Person
Royalton Hotels & Resorts

Couples craving a true escape can now make an entrance that sets the tone from the start. Paraíso de la Bonita, part of Royalton Hotels and Resorts’ Royalton Reserve Collection, has launched a five-night ultra-luxury package that includes the option to arrive by private helicopter and stay in one of the most exclusive suites in the Caribbean.

Available for a limited time, the experience is designed for couples who want privacy, indulgence, and a full reset from holiday stress. Guests may arrive by helicopter from Cancun, Tulum, or Cozumel, landing directly at the resort’s helipad. When available, the flight turns travel day into part of the vacation rather than something to rush through.

Inside the ultimate couples escape

At the heart of the package is The Reserve’s Chairman Three Bedroom Suite Ocean View Private Pool Diamond Club. This expansive, residential style suite faces the Caribbean Sea and offers sweeping views from nearly every room. Two terraces overlook both the ocean and mangroves, creating a rare sense of seclusion.

Outside, a private heated pool with jets and a full size oceanfront infinity pool surround the deck. Inside, the suite feels like a private villa, complete with elegant living and dining areas, three bedrooms, spa style bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers, and a private entrance. Each couple also enjoys dedicated butler service throughout the stay.

The five night package includes curated culinary and wellness experiences, from a private tequila and mezcal tasting to a sunset catamaran picnic. Daily reserved poolside lounging comes with champagne and fresh canapés, while the spa offers couples massages, hydrotherapy circuits, a Himalayan salt room, and access to the region’s only open air thalasso pool. An oceanfront temazcal ceremony rounds out the experience with a deeply restorative ritual inspired by ancient Mayan traditions.

The package starts at $40,590 for six adults.

I spent 72 hours in London with only a carry-on. Here’s how I did it in style
Luxury travel doesn't require a checked bag
London

Somewhere between the baggage claim carousel and the Elizabeth Line, I realized I'd already won. As passengers from my Norwegian flight to London crowded around the conveyor belt waiting for checked luggage to appear, I was already on my way into the city. Twenty minutes later, I was headed toward central London with nothing more than a carry-on suitcase and a backpack. I've become a bit of a carry-on evangelist over the past few years. Not because I'm trying to prove some minimalist point or because I enjoy seeing how few shirts I can survive with. I just genuinely think it's the better way to travel, especially for a long weekend in Europe.

My recent 72-hour trip from Copenhagen to London wasn't exactly a backpacker's itinerary. It included a stay at one of London's nicest luxury hotels, rooftop cocktails, dinners worth dressing up for, and plenty of walking through Soho, Covent Garden, and the rest of central London. Somehow, everything I needed fit inside my Travelpro Platinum Elite Slim Cabin Hardshell Spinner V2, with a backpack holding my flight essentials.

Corner, Home Decor, Bed

In case you need another excuse for a Montana getaway this summer, a quirky new boutique hotel has opened in Helena, the Treasure State's capital. The Bell Hotel occupies the site of the former Bell Motel, a classic 1950s roadside lodge thoughtfully reimagined by CWG Architecture. Each of its 14 rooms features locally made chocolates, coffee, and artwork. While in town, ask the front desk about the Bell's Picnic in the Park package. The hotel supplies a basket of local treats and a blanket; Montana provides the sublime scenery and glorious weather. You're on your own for companionship.

Want to feel like a lad watching England vs. Norway in New York City? The London is where it’s at
The quarterfinals are here. The London's where you should be.
Flag, Plant, City

The last quarterfinal games in the 2026 FIFA World Cup are here. England-Norway kicks things off in Miami before Argentina-Switzerland caps the day's action in Kansas City. One of the best things to come out of the World Cup has been the atmosphere these fans have provided at each city they've visited. We saw the amazing vibes out of Mexico City last week when England fans visited. Before the game, England fans partied and went toe-to-toe with Mexicans at bars everywhere. I know because I was there at The Dog House Pub.

After England beat Mexico in a classic Round of 16 game, fans flooded the streets and partied. We celebrated with England fans until the wee hours of the morning. If you have a serious case of FOMO, you need not worry. You can still catch good vibes and feel like a lad watching England-Norway at The London, A Luxury Collection Hotel, in New York City.
