Spring in the Northeast has a short fuse. One warm week, and the itch to get away for a week becomes hard to ignore. The Southeast and the Gulf Coast have their own pull this time of year, and right now they're delivering: Miami beach hotels with ocean breezes, Nashville soul with live music, New Orleans still humming after Mardi Gras, and the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina coming into bloom. What are you waiting for? It's all just a short flight away. | |  | | Acqualina Resort & Residences Sunny Isles Beach, FL The accolades here are legitimately stacked: Forbes Five Stars for both the hotel and spa, AAA Five Diamond, U.S. News Best Hotel and Best Resort in the U.S. for 2025, and USA Today's top waterfront and destination resort in the country. The Mediterranean-inspired property sits directly on Miami Beach with 44 residential-style suites and 98 guest rooms. Full kitchens, private balconies, and expansive floor plans offer space and luxury. Four dining options cover the range from rustic Italian at Il Mulino to Japanese fusion at Ke-uH. The Forbes Five-Star spa offers breathtaking Atlantic Ocean views. Few properties in Florida carry this much hardware and still feel like somewhere you'd actually want to stay.  |  | | Omni Nashville Hotel Nashville, TN The Country Music Hall of Fame sits directly next door, Ryman Auditorium is half a mile up the road, and Bridgestone Arena is two blocks away. Omni Nashville Hotel doesn't need to manufacture its connection to Music City—it's built into the address. Inside, the property covers the full range: southern-inspired all-day dining at Kitchen Notes, prime steaks and wine at Bob's Steak & Chop House, and the Mokara Spa when the long nights out catch up with you. The rooftop pool handles everything in between. For a downtown Nashville hotel, the competition is real, but Omni Nashville Hotel stands out for integrating the musical energy of the city into every aspect of the space.  |  | | Hotel Theo New Orleans, Tapestry Collection by Hilton New Orleans, LA Hotel Theo New Orleans, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, is within striking distance of the French Quarter without dropping you directly into the chaos of it. The 101-room Tapestry Collection property keeps things focused: Lyon's Corner handles dinner, a café covers the morning, and the bar is there when the night calls for it. The Ernest N. Morial Convention Center is under a mile away, and the Superdome is close enough to make the walk on game day. New Orleans doesn't really need help making a stay memorable—the property's job is to put you in the city's heart and get out of the way. It does that well.  |  | | The Foundry Hotel Asheville, Curio Collection by Hilton Asheville, NC This former steel mill—its output once used in the construction of the Biltmore Estate—has been repurposed into one of Asheville's most grounded boutique hotels. The property sits in The Block, the historic neighborhood now in the middle of a genuine revitalization, and only five minutes on foot from downtown. The industrial bones are still present throughout, balanced by tranquil outdoor spaces and firepits at the Workshop Lounge patio. The kitchen leans into Appalachian cuisine; the cocktail program matches the setting. Asheville draws art lovers, hikers, and craft beer seekers in equal measure. The Foundry puts you in the middle of all of it with an authentic Great Smoky Mountains experience.  |  | | Waynesville Inn & Golf Club Waynesville, NC Donald Ross selected this old dairy farm in 1926 for his "Carolina 9," and the bones of that decision are still paying dividends. The 165-acre property now runs 18 holes designed in partnership with Bobby Weed Golf Design—a thoughtful update that preserved Ross's original vision rather than replacing it. The historic inn rooms sit in the main building, some with balconies overlooking the course, all carrying the unhurried character of Western North Carolina. 72 guest rooms, 6,000 square feet of event space, a seasonal pool, an Event Lawn, and panoramic mountain views round out the property.  | | Interested in advertising in this newsletter? | |
