THE SOCIAL CLIMBERS GUIDE TO THE ANTI-HAMPTONS: SUNSET BEACH HOTEL

The best use of yellow and white striped awning since Giorgio Beverly HillsThe best use of yellow and white striped awning since Giorgio Beverly Hills

TI wants to enormously thank Neal Hamil at Elite for turning us on to the very excellent Sunset Beach Hotel on Shelter Island. If you hate the Hamptons but need the escape (and boy was this a weekend that made escape necessary) the Sunset Beach is a brilliant reprieve. Created (and impeccably curated) by Andre Balazs, this laid back Long Island destination features only 20 guest rooms, all with sun decks and a stunning bay view, as well as an excellent restaraunt . A whip smart staff, an unpretentious, laid back vibe and the best use of a white and yellow striped awning since Giorgio's Beverly Hills, TI was turned...so to speak .

CURRENT LISTENING: SOUND OF LIGHT: NORDIC LIGHT HOTEL:THE FIELD

Stockholm's Nordic Light Hotel syncs its design aesthetic with its music valuesStockholm's Nordic Light Hotel syncs its design aesthetic with its music values

Hotels that peddle electronic/dance music compliations to further the brand....the very definition of dodgy, no? May we offer a rare exception? Stockholm's Nordic Light Hotel is currently pushing a sampler by The Field titled "Sound Of Light: Nordic Light Hotel". TI had a suspicious eyebrow raised way high until we heard the loop crazy, 15 minute long "Morning" track. Not your typical 4/4 house beat banality and very good for the numbing flourescent modernity of airports, airplanes, automobiles, freeways and hotel rooms which is the story of our life , right this minute. P.S Nordic Light Hotel is a fantastic jump off point for exploring Stockholm's design culture. Consider it the red hot center of the next Stockholm Furniture Fair.

The Defining Guide To The Coolest Hotels and Resorts WorldwideThe Defining Guide To The Coolest Hotels and Resorts Worldwide

From Paris to LA to Miami, tablethotels.com has saved TI's life several times in the past three months. Hotels.com, travelocity.com, expedia.com and the likes are all very efficent and useful when searching for that last minute hotel deal. But do they understand the question of taste? Do they talk to an audience that is emotional about the design quality and the service level of the rooms in which they sleep? Tablet hotel does.It is a beautifully designed, carefully filtered booking destination for hotels worldwide and the site feels like you're having a conversation with a well educated friend who never steers you to the wrong hotel. And you know what seduced us to tablet? When searching for Paris hotels they omitted Hotel Costes. Major points for that!
