Pier 60, Clearwater, Florida

Anna Maria Island, my favorite place in the world

Addressing growing concern over climate change and the rising level of the world’s oceans, Russian architectural firm Remistudio has created a massive hotel that can endure an extreme flood.

Wao! Un paraiso flotante.

Isla Flotante

Some of the industry’s greatest hoteliers are getting into the boating game. We are totally on board with that.

The 60-foot wooden dhow Tusitiri was found abandoned on a Kenyan beach by its new Norwegian owners (who also run Enasoit Game Sanctuary in Laikipia) and restored over eight years. It sails with up to 10 guests from August through March alongside the humpbacks, dolphins, and eagles of the Lamu Archipelago (specialists are on board to school you on the surroundings). At night, brass lanterns cast a glow on linen bedrolls out on deck as you fall asleep to the dull cries of egrets and terns…

Since early 2016, Aman has been chartering weeklong voyages into Raja Ampat on its handcrafted 170-foot phinisi, a two-masted Indonesian ship. Having 14 staff on hand means the up-to-10 guests can get in-cabin massages and bubbly top-offs around the clock. The real draw, though, is the specialty Nitrox diving, which allows for longer dives alongside wobbegong and reef sharks off Kawe Island. Novices, not to worry: An onboard scuba instructor can train you for mid-level plonks into the coral…

The rose-lined pathways at Borgo Santo Pietro are alone worth a trip to Tuscany. So it’s not surprising that we fell hard for the property’s five-month-old sister ship on first glimpse of its 121-foot mast. “We wanted something that belonged to the bygone era of sailing yachts of the 1920s and 1930s, with a bit of la dolce vita style,” says Jeanette Thottrup, owner along with her husband, Claus, of the 136-foot schooner, Satori, which started hosting passengers for private, multi-day sails…

Eleven Experience’s foray into boating has those destination-specific luxe touches we expect of the brand (like the floating pods in its Icelandic spa). Sailing in southern Florida, after a day of bonefishing in the Marquesas Keys or sportfishing for tarpon in the Everglades, you’ll eat snapper ceviche and wagyu tenderloin aboard your 74-foot, three-stateroom Hatteras motor yacht. If the fish aren’t biting, you can always take the boat’s stash of snorkel gear and paddleboards to explore…

Stefano and Giorgia Barbini—former CEO of Escada France and Italy and scion of Brioni, respectively—own this 74-foot custom catamaran, which sails the Italian Med from June through October and the Caribbean from December through April. Like their White Deer San Lorenzo Mountain Lodge in the Dolomites, every detail of the vessel (marine-chic blue palette; flybridge with a table for 10) feels especially considered. And then there’s the food: Stefano keeps the wine cellar stocked with Piedmont…
