East Coast Escapes

Ah, spring at last! With the snow retreating, birds singing, and old man winter finally bidding adieu, let your sun-kissed imagination turn to reality with these dreamy east coast enclaves.

NEW ENGLAND

There’s no better way to usher in spring than fun-filled days spent on the water. And when you’re cruising New England’s most coveted coastlines aboard the XOXO private yacht, sun-drenched afternoons are even more refined.

The Itinerary: Discover the culture of Newport, the history of Nantucket, and the local vibe of Martha’s Vineyard. A journey of culinary and architectural exploration is customized to exactly your preference, whether you prefer busy marinas or remote coves. Back onboard at day’s end, your personal chef awaits, ready to wow you with fresh-from-the-sea cuisine.

Where You’ll Stay: NEW to The Club’s Private Travel Collection, your private yacht, XOXO, has all the bells and whistles: accommodation for up to eight guests in four suites, space for crew to ensure an indelible charter experience, a deck jacuzzi, water toys, fishing equipment, beach games, paddleboards, snorkeling equipment, plus a 32-foot NauticStar tender.

CHARLESTON

Pair Lowcountry hospitality with The Club’s brand new residences at 71 Wentworth, and your spring or summer vacation recipe is decidedly decadent.

The History Buff: The historic Nathaniel Russell House was constructed in 1808 and is an important neoclassical structure. Don’t miss the joggling board (Charleston’s answer to the rocking chair) in the formal gardens.

The Foodie: Any visit to Charleston should include dinner at Magnolia’s, where upscale Southern cuisine awaits. High Cotton Brunch is a must, too, and for a festive weekend meal, opt for coastal-inspired cuisine at Gingerline.

Where You’ll Stay: All seven of The Club's Kiawah Island residences are set within a gated residential community, providing easy access to the island's award-winning golf courses, wide golden beaches, and postcard-perfect marshland.

SEA ISLAND

At Sea Island, ocean vistas and outdoor adventure are always on tap. Here, family bonding is found in both local culture and unforgettable beach days.  

The Outdoor Obsessed: In addition to plenty of sun-and-sand time, go horseback riding on the beach, practice your swing at the Golf Performance Center, or drop the kiddos to Camp Cloister while you bike along Sea Island’s historic shores.

The Wellness Warrior: The Spa at Sea Island celebrates the power of water with interconnected waterways, pools, and water therapy. Try the signature Island Retreat — a 120-minute journey (body treatment, polish, and massage), all inspired by the ocean.

Where You’ll Stay: A visit to this small island off the southern coast of Georgia feels like traveling back to simpler times. The Club’s 13, four-bedroom luxury cottages are nestled between the resort and beach. By night, savor cocktails on your porch prior to exquisite meals at the Georgian Rooms Lounge.

NEW YORK

Spring or summer in NYC is always a good idea, especially when your luxury headquarters are perfectly positioned yet intimately tucked away from all of Manhattan’s irresistible charms. 

The Culturist: Start your perfect city day by walking The High Line, followed by a visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the ultimate city view atop Summit One Vanderbilt in Midtown.

The Fashionista: Bergdorf Goodman is a must for the style obsessed — housed in two landmark buildings at the southeast corner of Central Park. If vintage and art are more your speed, visit SoHo to shop some of the city’s most trendy boutiques and galleries.

Where You’ll Stay: The Club's 14 luxury residences at Park Avenue Place are in the heart of the city in Midtown East. Two-bedroom residences are outfitted in metropolitan style with cityscape views. Additionally, Club suites at the Trump International® in Midtown Manhattan frame indelible Central Park views.

WASHINGTON, D.C.

Cherry blossoms. Magnificent historical monuments. Plus, a dining scene to rival most any urban outpost? D.C. ensures a spring fling.  

The Culturist: Your first stop is the largest library in the world, which houses the country’s intellectual wealth. Next, take a private Monument Tour and discover D.C.’s most cherished landmarks. And when visiting during spring, the famous Cherry Blossom Festival showcases nature’s paintbrush along D.C.’s National Mall.

The Adventurist: Travel by bike, with a private guide, from the Rosewood to Mount Vernon, the plantation home of George Washington. A gourmet lunch is enjoyed along the way to one of America’s most important estates.

Where You’ll Stay: Charming townhouses at Rosewood Washington, D.C. immerse guests in the treasured community of the capital city. Featuring interiors by renowned D.C.-based designer Thomas Pheasant, each townhouse provides a living space with well-appointed bathrooms and kitchens.

NANTUCKET

Once this East Coast favorite settles into the warmer seasons, be forewarned: extending your stay is as tempting as The Club’s large coastal homes. Nantucket reds can be found at favorite boutiques, but also think sacred sunsets, iconic lighthouses, lobster-a-plenty, and aperol spritz cocktails from quaint seaside restaurants.

The Nature Lover: Learn about Nantucket’s maritime history at the iconic Whaling Museum, then take a private boat charter to navigate the very waters that made this area famous. Along the way, you’ll pass by many of Nantucket’s most iconic lighthouses.

The Food & Wine Lover: You don’t need to leave your stylish Club residence to enjoy a traditional New England Clambake, which can be delivered ready to enjoy. When wanting to hit the town, CRU Oyster Bar and Rose & Crown await. Or bike to Millie’s on Madaket Beach for sunset margaritas and fish tacos.

Where You’ll Stay: The Club's five-, six-, and seven-bedroom homes bridge Nantucket’s storied past with modern touches. And everything is accessible without a car — the 50-mile-wide island has an extensive bike trail system. 

FLORIDA

Come March, Florida puts on a brilliant display of ideal weather and non-stop coastal adventure. And with The Club’s numerous residences in four Florida locales, take your pick of culture and community. Here are favorite spring and summer stays.
