This luxurious country estate was created by legendary BET co-founder, Sheila Johnson. Located in Loudoun County’s Middleburg, Virginia — the heart of D.C. horse and wine country — it’s no surprise this property is known for its lavish parties and impressive vineyards. The resort features 168 rooms and suites on a certifiably environmentally friendly 340 acres, as well as an exquisite 23,000-square-foot luxury spa and a Virginia Piedmont-inspired signature restaurant.

Robert DeNiro expertly spearheaded the revamp of NYC’s Greenwich Hotel. This property sits amid the hip boutiques and lofts of Manhattan’s TriBeCa neighborhood, described as a “trendy, luxurious, bohemian outpost.” The hotel’s 88 rooms are individually decorated with unique artistic features such as Moroccan-tiles and Tibetan silk rugs said to have been inspired by DeNiro’s world travels. On-site Japanese-inspired Shibui Spa features a lantern-lit swimming pool and lounge, a 1,000 square-foot fitness center, and five luxe treatment rooms. (📷: @travelingwithjessica)
