Spring and all the Action

 

Delano, which launched in Miami in 1995, was a pioneer in redefining the lifestyle resort concept, and has been long known as the most sought-after hotel for travellers looking for a bespoke experience. Maison Delano – brings the iconic brand to the city - respecting Delano's history and soul: everything is effortless, personalised and understated. A bustling cocoon where guests can be their true self, from having a wild night or taking the time to nourish their senses, all with the trust of ultimate discretion. Set to open in 2026, Maison Delano Seoul will boast 81 extraordinary guestrooms and 52 branded residences and exceptional culinary and mixology experiences creating a vibrant hub for discerning guests. The hotel will also be home to a members' club, a sunken garden courtyard, and a breath-taking indoor and outdoor infinity rooftop pool overlooking the tree canopy of Gangnam Park. The design of Maison Delano Seoul will be rooted in crated simplicity; using natural and raw materials with a focus on the simple compositions and the flow of movement, which create a choreography of discovery as guests journey through the hotel. In a reinterpretation of the traditional Korean Pavilion, the architects have created a “park façade” concept, cocooning the entire building façade and sunken courtyard in trees and greenery to create a connection with nature as it flows in and around the building.  Wellness will play pivotal role within the hotel, bringing science and spirituality together with a holistic approach across physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing, including the latest wellness technology, as well as a spa and a gym. Maison Delano Seoul is located in the upscale and fashionable district of Gangnam, in the southern part of Seoul, within a tranquil setting opposite Seonjeongneung Royal Tombs, with panoramic views of the UNESCO World Heritage site. Maison Delano is part of Ennismore, a global collective of entrepreneurial and founder-built brands with creativity and purpose at heart. The first Maison Delano is due to open in Paris from March 2023. https://maisondelanoparis.com/en/   Spring and all the Action View this email in your browser Spring and all the action www.oliveandlatteabs.com globeshop (Affordable Luxe): www.dashinglyverygoodlivingVGD.com Installment payment  ShopBack PayLater ( Pay in 3, 0% interest ) (3months interest free) is available on: https://dashinglyverygoodlivingvgd.myshopify.com Packages https://www.dashinglyverygoodliving.com Installment payment  ShopBack PayLater ( Pay in 3, 0% interest ) is available on: http://oliveandlatte.com freelancer gig https://www.fiverr.com/trinawu youtube https://www.youtube.com/vusharon spotify playlist  link to click   websites  http://oliveandlattehomelounge.com http://engageformoments.com websites https://oliveandlattefamily.wordpress.com/ https://sites.google.com/oliveandlatte.com/oliveandlatte   Intercontinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort Wins “Best Hotels in the Maldives” Gold Rank in the Destinasian Readers' Choice Awards We are honoured to announce that the InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort has been voted as “Best Hotels in the Maldives” Gold Rank in the DestinAsian Readers' Choice Awards 2023.
