He will get the job done, and you will be so grateful for him as you sit in your beautiful new home.”

traditional room and suite in the Middle East? So 2023. How about an entire villa with a private pool all yourself that comes with your own personal butler? Enter Raffles Al Areen Palace Bahrain, billed as the country’s first and only all-villa resort.

Set on the country’s west coast on the “island of a million palm trees,” Raffles Al Areen Palace Bahrain was developed in collaboration with GFH Financial Group and offers “both escape from the fast-paced modern world and connection with an unexplored part of the Middle East,” says the Singaporean hospitality brand.

The property is defined by 78 private pool villas cocooned by lush tropical gardens, ranging from one three bedrooms and spanning over 4,300 square feet. Each boasts a temperature-controlled private pool and personalized butler service. The grandest of the offerings is the Royal Three-Bedroom Villa, with nearly 8,000 square feet of living space, a lavish lounge and dining area, an open-air heated swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and a lavish primary suite with a marble bathroom and soaking tub.

Wellness and connection to nature are enduring themes on the property. Guests can also opt for well-being villas, providing in-room wellness experiences. Also tucked into the property, a hidden gem awaits—a secret garden cultivated by a resident botanist. Guests can partake in exclusive workshops on organic gardening, tree planting, date picking, and healing herbs. An

on-site spa presents a variety of treatments merging innovative practices from both the East and West, with the intriguing “milky chocolate bath” catching particular attention. Staffed by skilled local practitioners, the spa prioritizes eco-conscious products. The facilities encompass a gym, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, steam rooms, a sauna, a Jacuzzi, tennis courts, and squash courts.

Guests of Raffles Bahrain will also find diverse dining options onsite, including the all-day Mediterranean restaurant Palma, featuring locally inspired fusion dishes and collaborations with renowned international chefs. Pastry Chef Yazid Ichemrahen, celebrated for his artistic creations at Ycone Paris, brings his delightful treats to Raffles Bahrain. If guests don’t feel like venturing out, they can always indulge in in-villa dining, complete with the option to have a private chef upon request.

As a finishing touch, the property provides a diverse array of on-site experiences. Embark on an art tour led by a butler-curator, indulge your botanical interests in a workshop hosted by a botanist in the hotel’s secret garden, or savor a romantic candlelit dinner. There are also opportunities to explore offsite at the nearby wildlife reserve, shopping at Bab Al Bahrain, or the Bahrain International F1 Circuit, the Al Dana Amphitheater, and Exhibition World Bahrain. https://www.coldwellbankerluxury.com/editorial/raffles-opens-first-and-only-

Be a HERO! Avoid recent P.A.C.E liens clouding your

transaction

Our exclusive monitoring technology identifies P.A.C.E liens BEFORE they are on the tax bill.

New Property Assessed Clean Energy (P.A.C.E) liens become an obligation on future property tax bills, which can take up to a year to be updated. These liens are also not easily identified on a preliminary report, making it hard to ensure an accurate disclosure is provided.

Knowing early on whether a property is subject to a P.A.C.E lien could help overcome complications to securing a mortgage and prevent unnecessary delays in the close of escrow.

Don’t settle for stale data. Accuracy isn’t something you should compromise.

COLDWELL BANKER AROUNDTHE WORLD

DOLOMITESCanazei

It has come to my attention that quite often, I tend to highlight tropical getaways or beachy islands, places where this winter-weary New Yorker fantasizes about spending time in the gloomy, dark months soon to come. I would be remiss, however, to neglect one of the best winter alternatives to being a snowbird, and that is to engage with winter head-on and head to a place where you can enjoy the weather for all its picturesque beauty and activities it can offer, and where else could one do better than the Italian Alps? Specifically, we are venturing this month to Canazei, a small Alpine village in the Dolomites. As the Broker-Owner Riccardo Nemela of Coldwell Banker Dolomites explains, “The Val di Fassa, located in the heart of the Dolomites, offers a unique blend of natural beauty and rich history. The region is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, renowned for its dramatic mountain scenery, including the Sella Massif and Marmolada Glacier.”

Nemela continues, “This alpine area is not only a hub for outdoor activities like skiing, hiking, and climbing but also a center of

Ladin culture, with traditions that have been preserved for centuries. The local economy thrives on tourism and agriculture, yet it maintains a peaceful, rural charm that draws visitors year-round.”

Beyond visiting or vacationing in Canazei, Riccardo Nemela also thinks it’s worth considering as an investment. Nemela offers, “buying a property in Canazei is more than just investing in real estate—it’s securing a piece of an extraordinary lifestyle. The town’s proximity to world-class ski resorts, the Sellaronda ski circuit, and breathtaking alpine landscapes make it an ideal location for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.” Mr. Nemela emphasizes, “Canazei’s preserved Ladin culture, and its serene, year-round beauty provide a peaceful retreat. Whether as a vacation home or permanent residence, owning property here offers unparalleled access to the natural wonders of the Dolomites, combined with a unique cultural heritage.”

Those so inclined can spend their days downhill skiing, while others can enjoy the breathtaking views from indoors while enjoying the incredible cuisine, with a mix of Italian and Austrian influences. There is also the unique Ladin influences, as the Ladin culture is specific to the Dolomites and extends its history to the tribes of the Roman empire. Impressively, it is still an official language of South Tyrol with 4% of the population speaking the language. Such a special place, nestled in breathtaking scenery, and home to Coldwell Banker Dolomites.
