WELCOME HOTELS, RESORTS & SPAS 2015/2016

The definition of a good hotel is changing. Once a bowl of fruit in a room, a decent concierge and a well-stocked minibar would cut it. No longer These days hotel designers are having to become ever more creative to appeal to the discerning traveler. In this special Elite Traveler edition, we round up some of the most exclusive and acclaimed hotels, resorts and spas around the globe that are doing exactly that. Look out for the mansion in Zanzibar with magnificent ornate wooden carvings and intricate Swahili architecture. Also look out for some of the most memorable travel experiences. From an unforgettable driving tour of the Napa Valley wine region, to one of the most unique lodges in the world surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of French Polynesia, to an underwater nightclub in the Maldives. I hope you find them as compelling and inviting as we do.

Blancpain’s Ocean Commitment Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback has impeccable eco credentials

Diving watches Blancpain’s Ocean Commitment program has to date protected more than 2.2 million sq km of ocean, including the world’s largest single marine reserve. With the launch of the limited-edition Ocean Commitment Bathyscaphe Chronographe Flyback, Blancpain offers clients the opportunity to become an active member of the Blancpain Ocean Commitment Circle and $1,100 will be donated to support scientific ocean expeditions for each of the 250 pieces. While respecting Blancpain’s diving watch heritage, this watch includes the company’s newest in-house movement, the F385, and adds functionality to the watch while diving thanks to innovative sealed chronograph pushers that allow the use of the flyback chronograph to depths of 300m. $20,200, blancpain.com

Ulysse Nardin Marine Perpetual

elite traveler HOTELS, RESORTS & SPAS 2015 22

TAKE THREE/// TRAVELING WATCHES

Turn off your world clock app – these innovative watches feature easy-to-read ways to track both your local time and your home time, right on your wrist.

1 PATEK PHILIPPE

The Calatrava Pilot Travel Time includes the patented Travel Time mechanism, which concurrently displays two different time zones on the blue dial – local time on long hands and a skeletonized hand for home time. $47,600, patek.com

2 HARRY WINSTON

The untraditional and masculine Avenue Dual Time watch features split indications for home and local time. By putting the hands on different levels, each time zone is able to have a unique style and finish. The case is ultra light and comfortable. $22,200, harrywinston.com 3 LOUIS VUITTON For the ultimate traveler, the innovative Escale Time Zone shows all 24 time zones at once on a colorful geometric dial, inspired by the initials and emblems once used to personalize trunks. Delicate white hands indicate the local time. $7,700, louisvuitton.com

Sports Watches

Ulysse Nardin joins Artemis Racing as an official partner for the 35th America’s Cup. A limited edition watch will be announced closer to the race, but the Marine Perpetual will stand in nicely for training. Athletic and elegant, an exclusive diamond setting process places the 54 baguette diamonds in the black rubber bezel. The perpetual calendar is adjustable over a single crown and it includes a chronograph. Available in white diamonds, blue, red or green sapphires, only 28 will be made in each color. Breitling’s Bentley GMT Light Body B04 takes inspiration from the luxurious automobiles. Red- rimmed counters bring to mind a dashboard and the bezel has a knurled motif inspired by Bentley’s radiator grilles. The rotating inner bezel shows 24 cities at a glance and the 24 hour GMT hand displays a second time zone. A user-friendly crown allows you to move time backwards and forwards in hour increments. Bremont’s new partnership with Boeing has resulted in a high quality aviator’s watch. The Model 247 was inspired by Boeing’s 1930s airliner of the same name. The case is made of Ti 6-4 titanium, aviation-grade and never used before in watch manufacture. It includes a 24 hour GMT hand and three chronograph small counters with seconds, 30 minutes and 12 hours. $58,000, ulysse-nardin.com; $13,665, breitling.com; $7,495, bremont.com

Spirit of Napa In the Spirit of Napa Valley by Jennifer Raiser (published by Assouline on July 10, $50) is the latest in a series of weighty coffee table tomes – this one is a whopping 160 pages – following on from In the Spirit of Capri , Aspen and St Barths . San Francisco-based Raiser picks out some of Napa’s best farmer’s markets, castles and estates, and, of course, vineyards. Look out for the illustrated maps that look like something from a children’s book, charting the best driving routes through the valley, and also for the foreword from chef and restaurateur Thomas Keller of The French Laundry fame. If you’re in the Napa area, Keller’s pop-up restaurant Ad Lib at The Royal Oak Silverado Resort and Spa (co-owned by his good friend, the golf pro Johnny Miller), is well worth a visit for its straightforward, meaty menu of filet mignons, beef short-rib wellingtons and broiled lobster tails. assouline.com, thomaskeller.com

The pink coral, white diamond and 18kt rose gold necklace from Hammerman Fine Jewelry is a perfect statement piece – ideal for a beach trip or yachting and elegant enough to wear in the city. While cameos conjure ideas of royalty and nobility, Amedeo’s cheeky designs are the opposite of traditional. This octopus ring with diamonds is hand-carved from a carnelian shell. Jorge Adeler, an expert jeweler based in Virginia, is known for his handcrafted, unique pieces. The organic shape of these bold 18kt yellow gold, citrine and diamond earrings keeps them from becoming too formal. For her 20kt yellow gold Antiquity collection, Coomi pulls inspiration from ancient cultures and her extensive travels. Marco Bicego designed the perfect solution for mixing it up while traveling.

We always have our personal concierge meet clients on arrival and with quiet restraint, they ensure that the needs of the guests are met. Villas may be custom staffed as required, if the request is for a private chef, spa therapist, soccer coach or a golf pro, whatever they desire,” she continues. “My team has a passion for precision and we pride ourselves on exceeding our client’s expectations. We strive to provide service that is unrivaled and our business continues to grow mostly because of their referral to family, friends and business associates,” Jones said. She adds: “We know each destination has its own uniqueness, each residence its own distinctiveness and it is a privilege to use our expertise to create an exceptional and unforgettable experience.”
