There are few things that I love more than a getaway to a beach destination. Relaxing in a lounge chair while listening to the waves is honestly just hard to beat. With prime beach time just around the corner, I thought I’d put together my tried-and-true list of oceanside essentials. AKA: your all-inclusive beach vacation packing list! Whether you’re headed to the Bahamas, Miami, the Maldives, St. Barths, Hawaii—or somewhere else warm and sunny—my beach packing list will have you covered. This guide includes all of the staples, like swimsuits, cover-ups, denim shorts, and of course sunscreen, but I’m also sharing photos and links to just about everything I brought with me on recent trips to beachy locales. I formatted this as a bullet-pointed packing list so it’s easy to sort through. The key is […]

20+ Cute Swim Cover-Ups for Your Next Vacation

After practically living in beachwear during my trip to Bora Bora, I thought I’d put together a list of some cute swim cover-ups. Whether you’re going to a tropical resort, attending a beachside bachelorette, or packing for a honeymoon, these TK cover-ups are ideal to tote along on your trip. Cover-ups are an absolute must-have in my opinion—they’re super comfortable, easy to throw on, and lightweight so you won’t melt in the sun. I never pack for a beach vacation without bringing at least a few cover-up options. I like to mix things up by bringing some skirt cover-ups (both long and short), dress cover-ups, and even rompers. It’s also a good idea to bring some choices that are casual and some that are more dressy. Dressier cover-ups are perfect for wearing to dinners or […]

Hotel Barriere Le Carl Gustaf Review: A Just-Opened Oasis in St. Barths

Danielle Cohen — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 02:46:13 +0000

The past few years have been particularly challenging for the island of St. Barths—first with the devastation of hurricane Irma, and then with the massive tourism hit that came as a result of COVID. So, suffice to say that the recent opening of Le Carl Gustaf—the island’s newest resort from France-based Barrière group—was a moment worthy of celebration. As my readers and followers know, I’ve been a longtime St. Barths-goer. My first trip to the island was in 2014, and Matt and I have been back every year—sometimes twice a year—since. We consider it our “special place.” About a month ago I received an email from Le Carl Gustaf inviting us to be among their first guests, and, unsurprisingly, my response was “HOW SOON CAN WE COME?” Of course, due to COVID, we wanted to […]

Things to Do in Mykonos: The Best Beach Clubs, Restaurants & More

Planning a trip to Mykonos can be confusing—especially if it’s your first time visiting the island. Years ago, before I had ever visited myself, I remember frantically googling the best things to do, the best restaurants, and what to wear. I spoke to Greek friends, friends of friends, and read every single “Mykonos guide” on the internet—and yet I still ended up feeling completely overwhelmed. Below I’ve compiled a guide based on everything I wished I knew—from what to pack, to the best time of year to go to Mykonos, and even the best spot for sunset on the island. Of course, I haven’t been EVERYWHERE yet, so if there are places you’ve visited and would recommend, please leave them in the comments! (P.S. Be sure to check out my list of the Top 10 […]
