Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes

Game day just got an upgrade in Cabo. Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes has unveiled its newest attraction: The Sports Bar, a high-energy, 200-seat venue designed for fans, families, and fun-seekers alike. As the seventh unique dining concept at the resort, The Sports Bar is a game-changer for sports fans on the Pacific coast.

The Sports Bar boasts 26 high-definition screens streaming major matches and global live events. At the heart of it all is Cabo’s largest 360° bar, featuring 24 barstool seats and panoramic views of the action, so you’ll never miss a moment, no matter where you’re seated.

Interactive zones and delicious food

Guests can choose between distinct zones tailored to different vibes. The Soccer Zone offers high-top seating and a foosball table for breaks between games, while the Play Zone includes pool and basketball for those who like their sports with a little more movement. For a more exclusive experience, the Elite Fanatic suite provides a private VIP space for up to 20 guests, perfect for championship screenings or private celebrations.

“Our goal was to create more than just a place to watch sports – we envisioned a lively gathering spot where guests can eat well, take part in our selection of games, and enjoy the energy of the moment,” says Pablo Marconi, General Manager of Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes. “Whether you’re catching a match, spending time with family, or just grabbing a drink, it’s a space designed for everyone.”

The real standout, however, is the menu. Classic stadium fare gets an upscale twist with fresh, local ingredients and bold Baja flavors. Highlights include:

Corn Ribs with a coastal flair
Baja Fish Ceviche with signature black sauces
Crunchy Wings in Buffalo, mango-habanero, BBQ, or tamarind sauce
New York Strip Burger with chili mayo, avocado, grilled onion, and cheddar
Chorizo & Cheese Board featuring Spanish and Argentinian chorizo
Shrimp Au Gratin, served bubbling hot with garlic butter bread
Tempura Fish Slider with tangy sauerkraut
Grilled Pineapple with Chistorra, a sweet and savory Baja-style bar snack

Open to the public, not just resort guests, The Sports Bar is more than a place to catch a game. It’s a new social hub for Cabo.

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.

This New Montana Hotel Captures the Poetry of the Open Road

Helena's newest boutique hotel revives the spirit of the classic roadside motel.

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.
