LUIS FONSI IS CELEBRATING HIS 25 TH YEAR IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY WITH A NEW ALBUM, NEW TOUR, AND NEW GOALS.

he clichéd (but true) sentiment, “it’s not the destination, it’s the journey,” is famously attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson. But just because Luis Fonsi didn’t come up with said phrase doesn’t mean it rings any less true for him. It’s so accurate, in fact, that it became the entire ethos of his 12th studio album, El Viaje (a.k.a. The Journey), a retrospective, commemorative look at his 25th year as a recording artist, paying homage to his wild, quarter-century ride. “Twenty-five years flew by without me even realizing,” the 46-year-old, boyishly handsome musician confesses from his Miami home on this sultry summer evening. “It’s been a fun journey hence the title of the new album. Technically, [‘el viaje’] means ‘the trip’, but it’s more than that. It really is about the journey, how much I’ve grown, evolved, and learned about not only the music side, but the me side, too; the personal trial and error that life brings. And when you hit a milestone anniversary, it forces you to press the pause button, look back, soak it all in, and say, I’ve been part of some special moments in the music industry, so let’s soak enjoy it.”

And so, El Viaje is, essentially, Fonsi’s personal love letter to his career. On it, he pays tribute to the countries and cities that have opened their doors to him and that have been decisive in his path to greatness. Every song refers to a city that left an indelible mark on him, including “Roma,” a duet with Laura Pausini; “Santa Marta,” with the great Carlos Vives; and the number one charting hit single, “Pasa La Página - Panamá.”

“Every song is a city or a different place, and that started as an accident, because the first few songs I wrote were names of cities. And once I had two, I was like, what if I just do a full album where every song is a city?” he recalls now, noting that in as much as El Viaje is a tribute album, he tried not to take himself or the content too seriously. “It’s not so literal some of them are party songs, some are very romantic songs, and some are very personal songs, but somehow, they make their way through that city, because of the style of the music, the rhythm, or just because of how it made me feel. But when you see the track list, you’ll see all these places that have meant a lot to me, that have been a part of my journey. This was my way of saying ‘thanks.’” His way of celebrating this milestone as a musician would is with a tour. The 25 Años Tour kicked off in February with a sold-out concert of 16,000 people at Madrid’s WiZink Center, continued throughout Europe and the States, and is dated through November of this year, though he shares that the tour will actually end where it all began with a series of shows at home in Puerto Rico sometime in 2025.

Touring is not for the faint of heart this one alone requires Fonsi to be on the road for months but it still brings him joy, performing in this way, 25 years into his career. “It’s a lot of traveling, but I love it. I haven’t gotten to that stage of my life where it starts to get old. I love visiting new places, I love going back to places I’ve been before. I love playing in newer, bigger venues, because 25 years in, that means I’m still growing; that I’ve gone from this arena to an even bigger arena. I don’t take it for granted that my audience is still growing, too. There’s a lot of music out there, a lot of artists that they could see instead. So, I’m enjoying the fact that people are really connected to my music and to my journey.”

And what a journey it’s been. One, he says, that never had a set ‘end goal,’ never just one ‘destination.’ For Fonsi, it has been about hitting personal goals, leaping from strength to strength, and achieving his personal best. Along the way, while enjoying the ride, he was able to rack up multiple gold, platinum, and diamond records, five Grammy nominations, five Latin Grammy awards, 12 Latin Billboard awards, five Billboard awards, 17 Premios Juventud, two American Music awards, and seven Guinness World Records titles thanks to his chart-topping song “Despacito.”

Other major moments included the certified double diamond No. 1 debut of his ninth album, Vida, on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart. Four of the singles from Vida, including “Despacito,” with Daddy Yankee and Justin Bieber; “Échame La Culpa,” with Demi Lovato; “Calypso,” with Stefflon Don; and “Impossible,” with Ozuna, reached number one on the radio charts. After Vida, he continued to release hit singles such as “Date La Vuelta,” with Nicky Jam and Sebastián Yatra; “Vacío,” with Rauw Alejandro; “Bésame,” with Myke Towers; “Nuestra Balada;” “Vacaciones,” with Manuel Turizo; and “Ley de Gravedad,” the title track for his 10th studio album. He also made an impactful appearance during the 94th Academy Awards in 2022 alongside Megan Thee Stallion, Becky G, and the cast of the Encanto movie to perform the viral hit “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” for the first time on live television. And the list goes on.

So, without a doubt, Emerson’s poetic turn of phrase certainly applies to him. He’s had one hell of a ride, one beyond his wildest imagination. “It’s clichéd and overused, but I use [the phrase] quite a bit,” Fonsi confides sheepishly, noting that he continues to use it because it is true and also applies to all aspects of his life. “In this industry that I’m in, I do often wonder what the destination is. When I look at it from a personal point of view, my destination is my family, right? That’s what makes me happy. My destination is a happy, healthy, normal home. And that’s what I strive to always maintain. A happy wife, happy kids growing up in a healthy, normal, loving environment. That’s how I grew up and that’s how I want them to grow up.”

And professionally? “When I first started almost 26 years ago now my destination, my goal, was a record deal. Then I got it, and my goal changed. It was like, well, I want to be played on the radio. Then it was a hit song. Little by little, those hits came. Then it was playing at a specific venue, or one day filling up this theater or this arena. And then it was a Grammy. So, little by little, you always keep extending that finish line, because that’s how life is; we always want more. But I certainly don’t want to say that I’ve done it all, because I haven’t. So right now, to me, my destination is really just about enjoying the process, writing really personal songs, engaging the audience, loving the places where I’m playing, and enjoying the heck out of it all. When I was younger, I was so focused. I was so zoomed in on getting to that destination that I forgot to really enjoy the journey, you know? I wasn’t mature enough to really look around and say, hey, I’m doing something really cool right now.”

“Cool” is an understatement here. Fonsi has been on quite the fantastic voyage since recording his debut album, Comenzaré (I Will Begin), in 1997. He’s performed for Pope John Paul II and for then-president Barack Obama (at the Nobel Peace Prize Concert in 2009, no less); collaborated with Daddy Yankee on the aforementioned record-breaking track, “Despacito”; became an ambassador to his native Puerto Rico; became an actor, with a starring turn on Broadway in 2013’s Forever Tango as well as in a slew of telenovelas on the small screen; and even wrote a children’s book earlier this year (written in both English and Spanish, which is no mean feat). It’s hard to believe that this Florida State University a cappella club alum is the star before me today, a sweet and humble, preternaturally youthful gent that has completely avoided getting caught up in the hype of his own success.

Yet, because his success has opened doors to these various ventures, in some ways, he feels like his journey is just beginning. Outside of his extremely established musical career, he’ll soon be starring in and executive producing his first feature film, the rom-com Say A Little Prayer, and has joined Sound of Freedom producer Sean Wolfington’s latest documentary, City of Dreams, as an executive producer. He will also continue to act as a mentor on La Voz, the Spanish version of The Voice, as he’s done for the past five seasons.

“IN MY CAREER, I’M LUCKY THAT I’VE JUST BEEN ABLE TO DO WHAT FEELS RIGHT — AND SO FAR, SO GOOD.”

And though he’s just released his latest album and is in the midst of a major tour, he (and I) can’t help but to ask: what’s next? How will he, to echo the name of his most recent hit single, “Pasa La Página,” turn the page?

“I often ask myself what the next chapter is going to be, because it feels like I’m just starting this chapter,” he admits. “I just put out an album that I’ve been working on for two years that had a really powerful theme. I’m just starting the tour, which is going to take me through [part of next year]. So, whatever that chapter is, it’s still a way out — but I’m always thinking ahead. I’d like to record a full album in Nashville, for example. I want to go there and make not a country album, but stick to my Latin-pop wheelhouse and make a very songwriter-driven album with basic guitar, bass, piano, and drums. I want to block out two months and just write it, record it, and release it, which is something that I’ve never done because I’m constantly touring. I always just break out little windows and say, OK, I’m going to do a bit of songwriting now; a week of songwriting here, back on tour there, then I piece it all together typically. But to get a bunch of amazing musicians in a room, recording, and not even having to wait a beat? Like, as soon as it’s ready, boom, putting it out there? That’s everything.”

This wouldn’t be Fonsi’s first time recording in Music City he produced both “San Juan,” an homage to his hometown, and “Andalucía,” a love song for his wife of 10 years, model Águeda López, but it would be the most impactful in that it would be dedicated, uninterrupted time with session musicians, in one incredible place.

“I want those guitar arrangements, I want that slide guitar, I want that subtle twang that just takes me to a happy place, I want songs that are songwriter heavy,” he declares. “And that’s what I love about Nashville — the stories, all told through music. Every time I’m there, I get so inspired, even just as a tourist. I’ll hit the big-name bars, the little dive bars, and I’ll just soak it all in. Although my genre is a little bit different, it connects somehow. I’ve always said that Latin ballads and country music have a lot in common. It’s not about the beat, it’s not about how the bass and the snare sounds — it’s about the emotion and the storytelling.”

He adds, “When I first started singing, when I went to college a long time ago and studied music, country music was probably what I heard the most. When I picked up a guitar, I would always try to figure out the chords, the melodic harmonic sequence of the songwriting — that’s how I became a songwriter. It’s been a big influence for me, which is why I know that at some point, I’ll just want to go, disconnect from the world, and write, record, and release my next album there. But I mean, right now I’m just so focused on this tour and on the films that I’m about to release that it’s still too far away to turn the page.”

He smiles. “See what I did there?”

uis Alfonso Rodríguez López-Cepero, aka Luis Fonsi, may be one of the biggest artists in the world, but you’d never know it from his demeanor. For starters, he’s just straight up nice. He’s thoughtful, unassuming, and humble. He doesn’t love photo shoots, but he gamely douses himself in the on-site waterfall at our shoot site, a $19.5 million residence within the Snapper Creek Lakes Club in Coral Gables, Florida. And instead of complaining about getting soaking wet, he politely declares, “It was actually quite refreshing!”

In my experience, the biggest stars — the ones with the most power are those who keep it real, who haven’t looked at others as ‘less than’ as their bank accounts and fame increase. And that is absolutely the case here, especially when Fonsi tells me that, without fail, he still goes on vacation once a year with the friends he made in middle and high school back in Orlando; he relocated to the “Theme Park Capital of the World” from Puerto Rico at age 10. [Last year, they hit the Las Vegas Strip.]

It was at Dr. Phillips High School that he found his life-long crew, who include members of his first a cappella group, The Big Guys (one of the members — and thus, one of his best friends to this day — was Joey Fatone, who later joined *NSYNC).

“YOU ALWAYS WANT TO REACH FOR THE STARS; YOU WANT TO GO AS HIGH AS YOU CAN, BUT YOU NEVER WANT TO LOSE YOUR HUMILITY.”

“I have a strong connection with my high school friends; they’re my brothers for life,” he says. “They were such a big part of my adjustment from Puerto Rico to the US. When I first moved here, I knew very little English, and I was very shy and introverted. Music, as clichéd as it sounds, was my shield. But I started singing with the group and getting noticed in school, and it gave me the confidence to come out of my shell. You know how high school is — it’s all about cliques — athletes, the cool kids, and the dorky music and theater kids — which is what I was. But through these songs and the group, I was able to sort of cross over into the cool kids. I was able to eat at the table with the cool kids, because I was the singing kid. I just sang my way through high school.”

High school could have been even more difficult for several reasons. To start, Fonsi’s mother, Delia López-Cepero, enrolled him in school at an early age, so he was always much younger than the kids around him. When he registered at Florida State University in 1995 on a full scholarship, he was just 16 [not because he was a genius, he says, but because “I think my mom just wanted me out of the house!”]. Secondly, was also the kid that never heard the music he listened to — his aforementioned shield — playing anywhere.

“If you go to Orlando now, the Latin culture is huge. But when I moved there, it was 1989, and you didn’t feel that Latin presence. There was only one radio station that played Latin music, and it was an AM radio station. I remember that because when I first put out my album 25 years ago, I always had to scan the AM radio station to see if my songs were getting played. And the first time I heard my first song get played, I was in Orlando, still living with my parents, and it was on AM radio. Now there are more Spanish radio stations than there are English ones in Orlando. I call it the beautiful Latin invasion.”

Fonsi is being self-effacing here, because he was extremely influential in creating said invasion — and even more impressively, he did it his way. He was a 17-year-old sophomore at Florida State University when he was offered his first recording contract — a big contract, by Sony — which he turned down because the content they wanted him to create felt inauthentic to him. But the point is, his belief in himself, in his future, was that great. [That he had this sort of direction — and gumption — at 17 is even more mind-boggling.]

Fonsi should be proud of himself, and, admittedly, he is. “I’m proud that I was able to just really create my own path,” he concedes. “When you’re first starting out, everybody has an opinion; everybody thinks they know what’s going to work and what is not. I first got offered a record contract to do a salsa album, but as much as I love salsa music, I don’t consider myself a salsa singer, and I didn’t feel that I was really going to give it my all. Out of respect for real salsa singers, I decided not to take it. I knew in my heart that it wasn’t going to work. So, I turned down my very first opportunity. I wanted to do my own songwriting, wanted to do more pop, more ballads, and they just didn’t see it at that time.”

He returned to college, finished his years at FSU, and was surprised to receive a call from Eddie Fernandez, the A&R for Universal Music Latin, who had been present at his first meetings with Sony. By an act of divine intervention, he was offered a contract shortly thereafter — and remains with that very same label 25 years later, which makes him a bona fide unicorn in the music industry.

As he reminisces, he shares, “I’m just proud that I was the right amount of stubborn, that I said, this is my lane and I’m going to stay here. I knew that I had to evolve, I knew that I had to try new things, I knew that I had to listen to everybody around me, but at the end of the day, I also knew to trust my gut and my heart, and if it didn’t feel right, it probably wasn’t right. Finding that balance is important, and I think to this day, I’ve followed my heart and made some smart choices,” he notes.

He chose to continuously evolve his sound; his first few albums were romantic, and as the years passed, he subtly added more Latin flair. “Despacito” was the first song with an urban vibe, and it was dismissed by

many as too big a departure from his regular sound. “People were like, ‘Are you sure you want to do this?’ They doubted it. But ultimately, I said, “Yeah, because it feels right. It feels very natural. It’s a great song that’s going to make people dance, and I want to sing it every day of my life. Let’s go for it.’ And in the end, it became a song that changed my life and definitely changed Latin music forever. I took a chance. I went head in, headfirst. I was like, I don’t care. What’s the worst that can happen? And it paid off. In my career, I’m lucky that I’ve just been able to do what feels right — and so far, so good.”

Which brings us full-circle to his journey and where, specifically, he is right now in both his life and career — which, as we’ve established, is not the final destination. If he had to choose a song that embodies his current situation, it would be “No Me Doy por Vencido,” the lead single from his seventh studio album, 2008’s Palabras del Silencio, which also became Billboard’s Song of the Decade from 2000 to 2010. “It loosely translates to ‘I will never give up’,” he explains. “It’s a powerful love song. But little by little, the song took on a life of its own and just became an anthem of hope for me — not just in love, but in life. For example, I became a spokesperson for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and we used this in [their ‘Thanks and Giving campaign]. Like, ‘I believe in myself, I’m here, and I’m going to power through this’ — and that’s what the song is about. It came back to me and slapped me in the face from a different angle, different from when I sat down to write it initially. And the song was really successful; it became the Billboard Song of the Decade from 2000 to 2010. [And so] that’s also a motto for me: I won’t give up. I’m stubborn, you know? I’ll always figure out a way to solve this puzzle and get what I want, which is something powerful.”

Fonsi also deems his family to be powerfully important, though juggling fatherhood as well as his career has become harder as his children — Mikaela, 12, and Rocco, seven — grow. “Right now, there are a lot of beautiful opportunities popping up, and I feel as though I have to take advantage of them, but at the same time, I have two little kids who I sometimes don’t see for two weeks, and they’re different little people when I come home. I don’t want to miss out on anything, because they need me big time, and I want to be there for everything. So, it’s a constant juggle of being here, leaving, saying no to a show, or an event, or an award show, because I want to be with them. That is more powerful, and that’s more fulfilling than any award I could get. It took me a while to realize that, because when we’re younger, we’re a bit more selfish — it’s all about our personal journey, and our personal success story. Now it’s like, who cares? It’s about them, and it’s about the legacy that I want to leave behind.”

Which begs the question, as we near the end of our discussion about his journey, as to what that legacy will be. His answer is both simple and complex. “When I think of my legacy, I try to see it through my kids’ eyes. To me, that’s more important than the legacy that I can leave for my audience. It’s how they are going to remember me when I’m not on stage, when I’m older, or when I’m not on this earth anymore. I’m just trying to show them the basics of love, respect, and work. They see how hard I work; they see how much I love it; and they see how passionate I am about everything I do; how respectful I am to everybody around me. I want them to see that I’m doing it for them. Some people have a nine to five, but I’m not one of them. I’ve worked my butt off since I was a little kid to be here. I want to tell them, I’ve studied, and I want you guys to do the same. I want you to prepare yourself so you can fulfill your dreams. And I don’t know if they’re quite getting it, if I’m making them feel better, but I’m making myself feel better. I just want them to know that I’m doing this because I love it and that nobody has given me anything; I’ve earned everything I’ve gotten in this beautiful career. It’s been based on hard work, dedication, and passion. [I want them to see that I] tocar el cielo sin levantar los pies del suelo — touch the sky without lifting [my] feet off the ground.”

Fonsi smiles. “You always want to reach for the stars; you want to go as high as you can, but you never want to lose your humility.”

Mission accomplished.

THE WORLD’S 50 BEST RESTAURANTS

These are the global culinary hot spots that walked away with awards at this year’s World’s 50 Best Restaurants ceremony, held for the first time ever in Las Vegas.

THE TOP PLAYERS IN HAUTE CUISINE CAME TOGETHER IN LAS VEGAS THIS SUMMER TO celebrate the World’s 50 Best Restaurants of 2024. The awards ceremony, hosted at Wynn Las Vegas, honored the very best gastronomic talent from 26 territories across five continents.

This year’s big winner was Barcelona’s Disfrutar. The restaurant, which is run by the skilled chef trio of Oriol Castro, Eduard Xatruch, and Mateu Casañas, succeeds the 2023 winner, Central in Lima, which now enjoys an elevated position in the “Best of the Best” hall of fame. Disfrutar is famed for modern techniques and beautiful ingredients, resulting in an experience that subverts traditional fine dining in a completely surprising way. The tasting menu showcases a Mediterranean identity with avant-garde flavors to deliver daring contemporary food that is truly thought-provoking. It is followed in the ranking by Asador Etxebarri (No.2) in Atxondo, also in Spain, and Paris’ Table Bruno Verjus (No.3).

There were also a few American restaurants that made the top 50 list. Those included Best Restaurant in North America winner Atomix, a Korean counter-dining spot in New York from husband-and-wife team Junghyun ‘JP’ and Ellia Park, and Healdsburg’s SingleThread, from husbandand-wife team Kyle and Katina Connaughton — a chef and farmer, respectively — which combines Kyle’s unique Japanese cuisine with fresh ingredients grown on Katina’s smallholding, and which pays tribute to ancient Japanese ryokans. Three additional US restaurants also placed on the extended 51-100 list include: Le Bernadin in New York (No.71), new entry Smyth in Chicago (No.90), and New York’s Cosme at No.99. The Resy One To Watch Award 2024 also hailed from an American eatery — Kato in Los Angeles. The award was presented by legendary, 3 Michelin Star chef Daniel Humm of Eleven Madison Park, which is part of the “Best of the Best” group of former No.1-ranked restaurants. The award recognizes a rising-star restaurant that is making waves in the gastronomic scene worthy of international acclaim. Chef and co-owner Jon Yao harnesses contemporary flavors from traditional Taiwanese family dishes to reimagine fine dining with a Southern Californian accent.

IN GOOD FORM

TIME ISN’T SLOWING DOWN FOR

GOLF LEGEND DUSTIN JOHNSON

— HE STILL HAS A LOT OF GOOD GOLF LEFT IN HIM.

SHOT ON LOCATION AT THE FOUR SEASONS RESORT PALM BEACH

SIMPLY PUT, TIME DOES NOT EXIST FOR GOLF LEGEND DUSTIN JOHNSON.

Case in point: as Johnson waltzed onto our set in early May with an infectious energy, he casually hinted that he had just returned home from his 20-plus-hour flight from Singapore with no signs of fatigue. And while Johnson admits he had been jet-lagged that morning, he did exactly what a true athlete does in extreme exhaustion — he went to the gym at 4:30 in the morning.

Time is just a construct for Johnson; in the hours I got to know him, I quickly realized that time does not control the professional athlete; instead, it motivates and excites him. In fact, he was approaching a major milestone, his 40th birthday, the following month, and he could not have been more elated to go up to Nashville with his closest friends and family to celebrate. And at just 40, the name Dustin Johnson has become synonymous with golf phenomenons — yet another thing for him to celebrate.

Johnson turned professional in 2007 and has since accumulated over 24 PGA Tour victories, winning the US Open in 2016 and the Masters Tournament in 2020 with a record score. He boasts six World Golf Championship victories, second only to Tiger Woods in the number of wins, and he is the first and only player to have won each of the four World Golf Championship events. With his victory at the 2020 Travelers Championship, Johnson became the third player in the PGA Tour history to win a Tour title in each of his first 13 seasons, joining the ranks of Jack Nicklaus (17 seasons) and Tiger Woods (14 seasons).

In 2022, Johnson made a statement by leaving the PGA Tour (the Tour) and joining the new global golf tour, LIV Golf, alongside Brooks Koepka, Phil Mickelson, and Bubba Watson, among others. “It’s been cool to do something different. I was on the Tour for 15 years, and I love everything it did for me — I always have and still do,” admits Johnson. “But it is also pretty cool to start something completely new. [Also] it’s more of a global tour, where you play in places around the world. I am definitely traveling more with LIV Golf, and I think that will continue to be bigger within the next few years — we aren’t even two years in yet.” With so many major accomplishments under his belt, taking this risk

felt right for Johnson. “I still want to compete at a very high level,” he explained when speaking about LIV Golf. “Because I am not getting any younger, I have to work harder than I did before to keep myself in good form, but I still feel great. Actually, my game is very close to being back to where it was when I was competing and having the chance to win every week.”

Again, time and age don’t matter. “I feel like I have a lot of really good golf left in me,” Johnson says, with a smile spreading across his face. “Major championships are still very important to me.”

There is an old saying — why fix something that is not broken? — which, to me, perfectly summarizes Johnson. He keeps his circle tight. His brother, Austin Johnson, has been his caddy for many years, and his manager, David Winkle, has been there for him since the day he went pro, both contributing to his immense success on the course. Having a steady team has allowed Johnson to not only focus on his sport, but also be himself.

This saying also applies to his personal style. His favorite color, you may wonder? Blue. He just knows it works for him. Johnson showed up to our cover shoot with his entire wardrobe curated (with perhaps a little help from his wife, Paulina Gretzky). And while his wardrobe and personal style err on the more minimalistic side, with traditional tailoring and a neutral color palette, there’s one accessory that does not: his timepieces.

Another immediate parallel I drew spending time with Johnson was that his relationship with Hublot is the perfect pairing. Hublot’s reputation is unconventional in its design. It is a disruptor in the industry, and so is Johnson. He commands a room while Hublot commands attention to detail. In fact, if Johnson had a clean slate without any watch brand ties, and I could decide which brand would best suit his personality, I too, would choose Hublot.

Johnson’s affinity for watches didn’t begin to grow until he went on the PGA Tour and started to notice that all of the players he looked up to were sporting timepieces (think Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson). “I partnered with Hublot right after I won my first major championship, the 2016 US Open. Having a watch partner and a brand that understands me was always something I wanted because all of the top players had it, and Hublot definitely fit me best,” Johnson reveals.

“Timepieces became accessories that I enjoyed, so I naturally started getting into them,” he continues. For our shoot, Johnson brought four of his beloved Hublot pieces, hinting that he had quite a few more back home, in his rather extensive collection. “The ones you see [on the photoshoot] are ones I’ve gotten after big wins,” he notes, pointing to said watches in their boxes. But, if he had to pair a favorite watch with a major milestone, it would be the green Hublot Big Bang Unico Golf watch he received when he won the Masters in 2020.

To me, like most watch nerds, watches go beyond the wrist. So, naturally, I had to give Johnson a more in-depth reading into what his watch choice really says about him. For Johnson, watches are the vehicle in which the complexities of his personality shine. For example, when it comes to his go-to personal style, he is tailored and particular in what he wears, from the color choices to the boots (he is a big boot guy), ultimately showing his more disciplined side. But his watches are where his more playful side comes to light. The four watches Johnson brought onto our set — like the Spirit of Big Bang in Hublot’s signature King Gold and full pavé diamonds retailing for just under $60,000 — all had that ‘wow’ factor.

The reading of Johnson continued on set as we discussed his upcoming 40th birthday. I immediately recognized him as a Cancer, and Cancer men are complex, to say this least — which perfectly explains his timepiece choices.

And while his love of golf and watches was apparent on set, I learned another of Johnson’s passions: tequila. Living in Palm Beach, the golf mecca where star athletes like Michael Jordan play, it is only fitting that Johnson has taken a liking to Cincoro Tequila, the brand launched by five NBA legends: Jeanie Buss, Wes Edens, Emilia Fazzalari, Wyc Grousbeck, and Michael Jordan.

Johnson has become an investor in the brand, joining a star-studded WhatsApp group of like-minded individuals (like Serena Williams, Derek Jeter, and Travis Scott, to name a few) who share the same devotion to the brand. “It’s been an awesome journey with Cincoro — they have a great team assembled behind the brand, like Jordan, and other major athletes, entertainers, and team owners that support the brand,” Johnson says.

In his limited downtime, living in South Florida is easy for Johnson. Whether he’s fishing, diving, or sailing one of his boats — a Bahama 41 or Viking Yacht for sportfishing — down to the Bahamas, Johnson was meant to live a life on the water. And at some point, he does want to

slow down. “My family has sacrificed so much for me to what I do, that I want to eventually take a step back,” he admits. “Hanging with my family is the most important thing to me.”

Johnson and Gretzky have two boys, Tatum (nine) and River (seven), and just as you would likely imagine, they are picking up on both mom and dad’s athleticism — with the added bonus that Johnson’s father-inlaw is hockey legend Wayne Gretzky. “We play golf, basketball, and baseball together — well, all of the sports — around the house,” Johnson laughs — just as he did as a child.

Johnson is building a legacy, both on the course and at home, that he can certainly look back on again in another 40 years and be equally as proud of as he is now. “You can’t buy time,” he reflects. “Time is something you always have to manage, so be thankful for whatever time you have and, for me, I try to spend it as wisely as I can.” In Johnson’s world, time is not just measured by the ticks of a watch, but by the moments that define a legacy.

IN HIGH COMPLICATIONS THE BEAUTY

AS AARON RODGERS ENTERS HIS SECOND ‘FIRST TIME’ PLAYING WITH THE NEW YORK JETS, HE REVEALS THE COMPLEX NATURE OF GETTING YOUR CONFIDENCE BACK.

THERE IS SOMETHING INCREDIBLY FREEING ABOUT AARON RODGERS. As I sat down with our Haute Time September cover star, I have to say that, at that point, I had been researching the legendary NFL quarterback for several weeks. I watched his interviews with Pat McAfee (the former NFL punter-turned-sports analyst, comedian, and media personality), understood the stories that made headlines, and studied the Zenith watches he gravitated towards. I was doing my due diligence. Yet, within moments of our conversation starting, the notes I had meticulously prepared went out the window.

Interviewing Rodgers felt like having a conversation with a longtime friend, a therapist, and a fellow watch enthusiast all at once. Beyond timepieces and journalism, I have a passion for reading energies — and Rodgers’ has one of the most liberating and genuine I have ever encountered.

The last time Haute Time sat down with Rodgers was in 2021, when he was entering his sixteenth season with the Green Bay Packers, so we had quite a bit of catching up to do. Since then, he has played two more seasons (nearly reaching two decades with the Packers) and was traded to the New York Jets during the 2023 NFL Draft with a two-year, $75 million guaranteed contract — though unfortunately suffered an injury during his first season with the team.

Fast forward to today, just a few weeks before training camp, and Rodgers feels good. “I feel blessed to still be playing football at 40 years old. Being in New Jersey, near New York City, has been a beautiful experience,” Rodgers admits, jokingly adding that the New York Jets should technically be called the New Jersey Jets.

“It’s a new team, a new organization, and new guys to get to know. Although getting hurt in the first game last year was tough, it was a good change. I embraced it, and I am looking forward to a healthy season this year,” he continues. Naturally, his recovery after tearing his Achilles tendon is top of mind for everyone as the 2024 NFL season approaches.

Yet, despite the complexity of the injury, Rodgers exudes a calm energy. “[The recovery] is multifaceted,” he explains. “I went to, in my opinion, the best doctor in the country, Dr. Neal ElAttrache. NFL running back Cam Akers was his patient a few years ago, and he returned faster than anyone else has ever returned from an Achilles injury — five months. So, I knew I was in the right place. Physically, the rehab was fantastic,” Rodgers adds.

While most would assume that physical healing is the most important aspect of the sport, Rodgers quickly discovered that the emotional side of the injury was just as crucial, if not the hardest part. “With any major injury, it’s always that last little bit of time where you have to regain confidence and overcome fear. There are stages of grief that come with an injury for me — at first, there’s sadness, heartbreak, and frustration,” he reveals. But now, he can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Rodgers is facing his final mental hurdle: regaining the confidence to do all the things he knows he is capable of, but hasn’t done in a year.

“The last bit of [healing] will happen in a few weeks, when I go back to training camp, reconnect with the guys, and have my body respond exactly the way I want it to,” he explains. Another aspect of his journey was the loss of camaraderie with the team, as he rehabbed across the country in California. Rebuilding that bond with the team means more than anything to him.

As Rodgers mentioned, recovery is not linear.

In fact, he has been scrutinized for his alternative healing methods, namely ayahuasca. As a firm believer in exploring different energies to heal the body, I had to ask how these different healing tools have changed his life. “In a lot of different ways,” Rodgers says, laughing as he admits that the answer to my question would take over an hour to discuss (though I wish we had that time). “But I would say that doing ayahuasca, especially, has changed my life for the better. I’ve participated in numerous ayahuasca ceremonies — they are like microcosms of life.”

For Rodgers, life is a big ceremony. “In the week-long ceremonies, there are a lot of high moments, and a lot of difficult moments, but the goal is to find a deeper connection to yourself, to nature, and to the people around you. It’s given me a lot of high doses of self-love, forgiveness, and gentleness — things that have really made a big impact on my life.”

On a deeper level, these alternative healing methods have challenged Rodgers’ ego. “It can be an incredible tool to dive deep into the exploration of self and to deal with self-criticism and all of the different things we tell ourselves — the lies we tell ourselves — to deal with the ego,” he explains.

Given his time in the spotlight, I imagine this tool is essential. “You have to learn to find a proper place for the ego, to put it back into the heart and get it out of the head. You turn the ‘observer’ on where you can look at your life from an objective point-of-view to find a deeper connection with yourself and the people in your life.”

Though Rodgers doesn’t necessarily recommend this journey for everyone, at this point in our conversation, I am intrigued — and inspired — by his ability to read his different energies and evolve his perspective based on each specific moment in time.

He continues, “I also firmly believe in the reverent nature that needs to go along [with this practice] to put medicine in the right place. I have only done ayahuasca with incredible indigenous tribes that have spent their life training from childhood; it’s generational, passed down in lineage. I really believe in the sacred nature of medicine and not to mess around with it; it’s not a party plant. There is a time and place for it, and I am thankful for the role it has played in this time of my life, especially the last five years.”

It has been proven over the last several years that these alternative healing methods have helped patients with dementia, PTSD, and more, helping them become a more common practice. Rodgers has taken certain tools from these ceremonies and implemented them into his everyday life, such as ‘Hapé,’ a ritual involving a sacred tobacco blend and ashes from sacred fires that is known for its cleansing, grounding, and spiritual effects. “I first became familiar with it years ago, when I was in Peru, but it has since become a weekly practice for me when I need to ground myself. It’s a great tool for getting back into my body when I’m feeling a little worn out; it’s a good way to re-center,” he says. These techniques have proven to be efficacious for Rodgers to stay present in time.

Speaking of time, I happen to notice the Zenith Defy Skyline Chronograph on his wrist. It’s no secret that Zenith has been a part of Rodgers’ life for some time now, and I can’t help but draw a parallel between the two as they both enter new chapters: Rodgers is about to restart his career with the Jets, and Zenith welcomed a new CEO, Benoit De Clerck, this year.

As we delve deeper into watches, Rodgers recalls one of his favorite lines from the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall. “I harken back to the line from when Mila Kunis is talking about not wearing a watch anymore. She says something about how she doesn’t know the point of wearing a watch anymore, when everyone has the time on their phone, but I think there’s a classy nature to wearing a watch. There is an heirloom quality to it — passing it down through generations. That didn’t happen in my family,” he continues, “but it’s something I want to pass down myself.”

Thanks to his relationship with Zenith, his future children will definitely need to be Chronomaster Sport fans. But for Rodgers, the relationship with Zenith goes beyond the physical watch. “When you endorse a product, you aren’t just endorsing the actual watch; you are endorsing the people who make the company special. Some companies forget that it’s not the name on top of the building or the name at the back of the jersey that make it special — it’s the people who make it special.”

In fact, it was the people behind Zenith who solidified his love for the brand. “Going to Switzerland and actually meeting the men and

“YOU TURN THE ‘OBSERVER’ ON WHERE YOU CAN LOOK AT YOUR LIFE FROM AN OBJECTIVE POINT-OFVIEW TO FIND A DEEPER CONNECTION WITH YOURSELF AND THE PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE.”

women who work at the facility, and to see how much they care, is what locked it in for me. The 10,000 hour-rule by Malcolm Gladwell (the rule that it takes 10,000 hours of intensive practice to achieve mastery of complex skills and materials), is very true with these men and women who make the parts of the watches — there’s an expertise that you can’t help but appreciate the beauty of,” Rodgers admits, before getting philosophical about it (‘the Rodgers perspective,’ I like to think of it). “In life, in general, when you meet someone who is super passionate about something and they tell you about it, it draws you into that passion, and you feel connected because someone cares about something so much.”

He also feels connected to the history of watchmaking. As a history buff in college, learning the history of Zenith drew him closer to the brand.

“Knowing how it went through some tough times but persevered based on the courage of a small group of people to save the most important timemaking apparatus is pretty cool; they made the movement for another watch company for a really long time because of the expertise,” Rodgers explains, teeming with knowledge. Admittingly, at one point, we joked that he knew so much about Zenith’s complexities that he could work there.

Though he wasn’t wearing it at the time of our conversation, Rodgers’ go-to Zenith is hands down the Chronomaster Sport with the white dial — it’s the one he would pick to wear for the rest of his life if he had to choose but he also has an affinity to the 41mm limited edition Chronomaster Sport Aaron Rodgers, with the legendary green dial. “We spent several months working on that collaboration, making decisions on so many small things, so when I saw it for the first time, it was truly meaningful. I helped put that watch together.”

Rodgers actually gifted his limited edition watch to a few important people in his life, like Dr. ElAttrache and his agent, Ed Berry.

Often, we associate timepieces with major life milestones, and for Rodgers, there’s one watch that changed the course of his life forever: the blinged-out Pippo he wore to the 2005 NFL Draft. “That watch meant a lot to me; it symbolized the moment I realized, OK, I am about to be a professional. It’s funny to look back now, because I would never wear that watch today — no diamond bezels for me — but it represents a moment in time that changed my life.”

As one of the most introverted extroverts — or is it extroverted introverts — I have ever met, Rodgers has a sentiment on life that can be summed up in one word: excitement. He is excited for the season ahead, for life beyond football, and even for planning his first fall vacation as an adult once his football career ends. “I definitely have a lot of things I want to accomplish [outside of football]. I want to be a father at some point, so that will be a fun chapter,” he says with a smile.

Rodgers has dedicated over 23 years of his life to football with no regrets, but he looks forward to the new chapters ahead. Yet for him, we are all living in the same moment — past, present, and future — it’s just perspective that adjusts your mindset.

Like most, Rodgers looks at time as the most valuable commodity. “I’ve spent so much of my time stewing over things that don’t matter and which, vibrationally, are just distant with my body. I think any time you have experienced the death of a close friend, it’s a reminder of how fast time goes and how finite life is,” he reflects. “So now, I am trying to spend my time with the people who matter most.”

Rodgers has many layers to him as a being. Actually, in technical watchmaking terms, I would categorize him as a high complication — and like high complications, there is so much beauty in the complexity that is Aaron Rodgers

LOUIS VUITTON CONTINUES THE PRESTIGIOUS LEGACY IT BEGAN IN 1983 BY DESIGNING THE LOUIS VUITTON CUP TROPHY AND TWO UNIQUE TROPHY TRUNKS FOR THE LOUIS VUITTON CUP AND THE 37TH AMERICA’S CUP IN BARCELONA.

PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY OF LOUIS VUITTON

Over the last several decades, Louis Vuitton has become a name synonymous with victory. As just seen with the Trophy Trunks and Medals for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris designed by Louis Vuitton, the Maison continues its dedication to sporting awards with the Louis Vuitton Cup and the Louis Vuitton 37th America’s Cup in Barcelona this year.

Founded only a few years apart — America’s Cup in 1851 and Louis Vuitton in 1854 — these two esteemed institutions have shared a parallel history for over 130 years. Their paths converged in 1983, when Louis Vuitton introduced a dedicated trophy for a showdown between the competition’s Defender and the Challengers. This partnership has since elevated the visibility and prestige of the America’s Cup, with Louis Vuitton playing a crucial role in enhancing its prominence for 40 years, from the United States to Australia, Bermuda, Hong Kong, Dubai, France, and Spain.

A new chapter of this story will begin in Barcelona on Thursday, August 29, extending through to Monday, October 7. During this period, the five Challengers of the Louis Vuitton Cup regatta — INEOS Britannia, Alinghi Red Bull Racing, Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli, NYYC American Magic, and Orient Express Racing — are poised to compete against the Defender, Emirates Team New Zealand, in the 37th edition of the Louis Vuitton America’s Cup match.

Since the inception of the Louis Vuitton Cup over 40 years ago, prestige, innovation, and performance have been at the forefront of the brand’s partnership with the America’s Cup. This collaboration celebrates the convergence of two worlds, where the art of sailing meets refined luxury. Both institutions share a modern approach, evident in their use of 3D design and sustainable, lightweight materials, whether in the creation of Trophy Trunks or the foils that allow the AC40 and AC75 to glide swiftly through the water, while still honoring time-honored traditions.

The 2024 bespoke trunks will be meticulously crafted at the historic Louis Vuitton atelier in Asnières. Each trunk is designed to carry one of two prestigious trophies: the Auld Mug, the silver ewer awarded to the America’s Cup winner since 1851 and recognized as the world’s oldest international sports trophy, and the Louis Vuitton Cup, a trophy introduced by the Maison in 1983 for the victor of the Louis Vuitton Cup competition.

For Pietro Beccari, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Louis Vuitton, this race holds a great amount of honor. “It’s with an immense sense of pride that we return to this historical competition as Title Partner. Port Vell of Barcelona will be the setting for a display of elegance and power, where teams will compete with boldness, talent, and mastery on increasingly innovative yachts. These values equally reflect the spirit of Louis Vuitton and its artisans.”

“We are working every day to make the Louis Vuitton 37th America’s Cup Barcelona the most exceptional ever. By bringing its name and spirit to the event, Louis Vuitton is once again part of our pursuit of excellence,” states Grant Dalton, CEO of the America’s Cup event.

THE ART OF THE PRADA GALLERIA

For over 15 years, the Prada Galleria has withstood the test of time, becoming one of the most iconic handbags within the Prada universe. This year, the Prada Galleria is reimagined through a new floral appliqué that is quintessential Prada.

The Galleria, named after the brand’s historic flagship, opened by Mario Prada in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in 1913, is continuously rethought, reimagined, and revitalized, becoming a blank canvas for open artistic expression each collection.

For the 2024 season, the Galleria Soft Grain introduces a fresh lightness to the classic design, transforming the bag’s demeanor with supple calfskin exterior and nappa linings inside. This new treatment serves as a luxurious foundation for the threedimensional floral blooms that adorn the bag, each hand-crafted from fine leather, boasting Prada’s expertise in leatherworking for more than a decade.

Up close, the bag’s exterior features these intricate flowers, ranging from delicately coiled rosebuds to fully bloomed anemones, all meticulously reimaged as graphic elements by Prada’s skilled artisans. The multi-layered floral appliqués are available in a variety of colors, like muted greens and a lush dandelion yellow — a very ‘Miuccia Prada’ color palette.

These floral embellishments, always woven throughout Prada’s ready-to-wear collections over the past four decades, have become synonymous with the brand’s name and its unparalleled Italian craftsmanship.

Dr. Victoria Rose Veytsman: The Architect of Smiles AND Confidence

AS A TRAILBLAZING CELEBRITY COSMETIC DENTIST AND entrepreneur, Dr. Victoria Veytsman has redefined what it means to wear a beautiful smile. Through her unique “trifecta philosophy”of combining oral health, beauty, and overall wellness, she has not only transformed teeth but also lives, empowering countless individuals to face the world with newfound confidence. From her early days to becoming a top-tier dentist, Dr. Veytsman’s journey is a remarkable tale of dedication, artistry, personal development, and commitment to her patients’ overall well-being.

MEET DR. VEYTSMAN: A JOURNEY OF DETERMINATION AND EXCELLENCE

Dr. Veytsman’s journey is as inspiring as it is impressive. Growing up in New York as a first-generation American, her path was shaped by a relentless work ethic and determination. By 16, she had completed high school, and by 22, she became the youngest graduate of the New York University College of Dentistry. After finishing her residency at St. Luke’s Roosevelt through the Columbia Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, Dr. Veytsman started getting a clear vision of the practice she wanted to establish. In her effort to further understand where and how she could create more impact outside of the practice, she completed a master’s in humanitarian action. To this day, this fuels her dedication to making a broader difference in the world, enhancing her ability to contribute meaningfully both within and beyond her professional sphere. She aims to revolutionize cosmetic dentistry by merging artistry with science, creating smiles that build confidence and self-esteem, and creating impact beyond the practice.

In her late twenties, Dr. Veytsman took a bold step, opening Cosmetic Dental Studios with the clear idea of creating something unique. Today, she leads a bicoastal practice based in New York and Los Angeles centered around beauty and wellness. Her hands-on approach and dedication to

individualized care have set her apart in a male-dominated industry, earning her the moniker of “smile whisperer.” Dr. Veytsman serves as the official dentist for the Miss USA and Miss America organizations, and her clientele includes numerous actors, models, and athletes.

THE “TRIFECTA PHILOSOPHY:” A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO DENTISTRY

Dr. Veytsman’s trifecta philosophy revolves around three core principles: beauty, wellness, and oral health. This holistic approach ensures that her patients receive comprehensive care that addresses both their esthetic desires and health needs.

BEAUTY: THE POWER OF A CONFIDENT SMILE

For Dr. Veytsman, true beauty extends beyond esthetics; it lies in the power of a confident smile. Under her meticulous care, cosmetic dentistry becomes an art form. Each treatment is tailored to transform a patient’s smile into a standout feature, something they will genuinely love and proudly share with the world. From teeth whitening and veneers to orthodontics, every procedure is designed with the individual’s unique features in mind. The goal is to create not just a visually pleasing smile but also to boost self-confidence and enhance overall dental esthetics.

Dr. Veytsman also specializes in dentofacial aesthetics and anti-aging dentistry. These advanced fields focus on harmonizing the relationship between the teeth, jaws, and facial structure to create a balanced and youthful appearance. Anti-aging dentistry addresses the signs of aging in the teeth and gums, using techniques such as gum contouring, dental implants, and bite correction to rejuvenate the smile. By integrating these specialized practices, Dr. Veytsman ensures that each patient achieves not only a beautiful smile but also a youthful, refreshed overall appearance.

WELLNESS: THE FOUNDATION OF OVERALL HEALTH

In the realm of dentistry, wellness takes center stage with a health-first approach that impacts the entire body. Dr. Veytsman emphasizes the importance of a healthy diet, rich in vitamins and nutrients while avoiding high-sugar and acidic foods. She highlights the significant correlation between oral health and overall well-being, noting that preventing chronic diseases like heart disease often begins with maintaining a healthy mouth. The research is clear — the mouth is truly the gateway to overall health. Oral health and the oral microbiome are linked to cardiac, cognitive, immune, and maternal health. Gum disease and inflammation are linked to conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes. Dr. Veytsman’s philosophy recognizes that a healthy mouth is the cornerstone of overall health, as oral issues can have systemic effects.

ORAL

HEALTH: BEYOND ESTHETICS

The trifecta philosophy delves deeper than the surface, ensuring that teeth and jaws function correctly and remain healthy. This comprehensive approach addresses issues such as cavities, gum disease, old restorations, chipping, and misalignments, contributing to a fully functional and esthetically pleasing smile. Dr. Veytsman emphasizes the importance of regular oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing, using mouthwash, and scheduling routine checkups and cleanings. Early intervention and prevention are crucial elements in ensuring both a healthy smile and overall well-being.

SKILLS

AND SPECIALTIES: AN ARTIST AND SCIENTIST

Dr. Veytsman’s artistic flair has been evident since childhood, as a prolific pencil portraitist fascinated by facial nuances. Her studies in dentofacial esthetics under mentors nationwide allowed her to master the art of holistic smile design. She crafts smiles that bring symmetry, harmony, and balance, perfectly blending art, science, and wellness.

Her treatments not only address dental issues but also consider the entire facial esthetic, embodying a 360-degree approach. Specializing in anti-aging dentistry, Dr. Veytsman can work on rejuvenating a smile, taking years off a patient’s appearance by restoring youth, volume, and vibrance. Her unique ability to understand the emotional and mental impacts of her work underscores her practice, as she recognizes the profound effect a confident smile can have on a person’s mindset.

PHILANTHROPY: GIVING BACK TO COMMUNITIES

While cosmetic dentistry allows Dr. Veytsman to make an impact on a micro level, her goal is to make an impact on a macro level as well. Dr. Veytsman’s commitment to giving back is as strong as her dedication to her practice. She has provided services to numerous charitable organizations, including the Bowery Residents’ Committee, Operation Smile, Urbantech, and Smile Train. Her work with Face Forward International focuses on preventing poverty and supporting victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. Her current areas of interest lie in empowering women through education, technology, and digital inclusion in developing countries. She believes empowering women isn’t being a feminist, but a humanist, because empowering women has the potential to uplift entire communities.

Dr. Victoria Veytsman’s work transcends the boundaries of traditional dentistry. Through her trifecta philosophy, she has redefined beauty, wellness, and oral health, transforming smiles and lives. Her journey, marked by determination and excellence, serves as an inspiration. As she continues to expand her impact, both in her practice and through her philanthropic efforts, Dr. Veytsman remains a true architect of confidence.

Bentley V8 motors on the rise

The end of the V12 era does not cut back on performance.

BENTLEY DOES THINGS RIGHT. ANYONE WHO’S BEEN BEHIND the wheel of a B-car knows this, but some expressed concerns that the coming of the self-driving cars (when?) and the end of the internalcombustion engine (when?) would mark the start of the “Anemic Era.” We should not have worried, at least not as far as Bentley goes.

The famed Bentley 12-cylinder motors ended production earlier this year and will not be available in any new models. With impressive horsepower and incredible torque, those 6.0-liter motors set the standard for performance. So, how would the eight-cylinder motors compare? Well, the eights certainly have better fuel economy, but will the legendary performance of the bigger motors be lamented by today’s drivers? Bently invited me to Boston to get familiar with the more-powerful V8 motors that will be the nameplate’s main motivators in the coming years, the eight-bangers. But, of course, there was no “banging” with these whisper-quiet power plants, whose silence was befitting the GTs, Flying Spurs, and Bentaygas that I was set to drive the next day to The Preserve Sporting Club, a 3,500-acre retreat near Providence, Rhode Island.

A brief overview of the Bentley family may be helpful. The Bentley GTs are two-door “grand tourers,” either convertible or hard top. The Flying Spurs are four-door cars, while the Bentaygas are Bentley’s SUVs. Each of those body styles comes with a variety of options, some focusing on luxury, others on performance, and a few even available with an extended wheelbase (the Bentley online configurator allows interested patrons a multitude of ways to create the vehicle that is the most suitable for their needs).

Over the years, I’ve driven all of Bentley’s models and have enjoyed each of them for different reasons. Want a grand touring car? Try the GT Speed, with its performance focus. Interested in a sporty cruiser for those wonderful summer days and nights driving through the countryside? Try the GT Convertible (or “GTC”) with its plush fabric top which, when up, has all of the benefits of a hardtop with an elegant roof. Need a car for up to five adults? The Flying Spur delivers, with ample leg room, power folddown tables, and TV screens in the back seats. And if you need more of a utility vehicle, which is equally at home on the ranch, at a lakeside picnic, at the gun club, or on a night on the town, then call on the Bentayga. This

time, from the offered fleet waiting for me in Boston, I chose a unique twotone Flying Spur, with gleaming silver paint and beautifully contrasting gloss black grille surround, hood, and roof.

While the drive from Boston to my stay in Rhode Island was a mere 50 miles or so — and mostly on highways — my Flying Spur was quiet, smooth, powerful, and comfortable the whole way. Yet this was no docile machine when the pedal hit the metal, which, of course, was necessary when coming on to the highway and merging. With an output of about 540 horsepower, this should not have come as a surprise, even though the Flying Spur weighs in at over 5,000 pounds.

The weight of the car, when kept in check by a supple yet confident suspension, provided me with the smooth ride of a long wheel-base 2.5ton cruiser, and yet, there was nary a wallow in sight as I navigated the curves and twisties.

And no, I did not ignore the GTs on this trip. They did wonderfully on the path to Providence too, ensconcing their drivers and passengers in quiet comfort while rocketing down the turnpike (never past the speed limit, of course).

Once we arrived at The Preserve — a 3,500-acre resort with room to roam and areas set aside for almost any outdoor event you can imagine, such as fly fishing, skeet shooting, picnicking, and even off-roading at the custom-designed mud, rock, rivulet, and puddle filled course — it was time for the Bentaygas to shine. For this Angeleno, who is used to seeing the Bentaygas’ offroad cred mostly used to conquer nothing more than dusty Starbucks’ lots, putting the highly capable Bentley utility vehicle through the paces to handle the trails with aplomb and grace was a great experience. What a brilliant move from Bentley to let potential customers experience all that the Bentayga has to offer while staying at a luxurious resort with so many activities to choose from, most of which showcased the Bentayga’s terrific functionality.

So, as Jay Leno is fond of saying, “There’s no replacement for displacement,” and I am a big fan of the Bentley W12 S (basically two V6 motors side by side). That said, the fire-breathers of yore clearly are on their way out, and Bentley has found a way to closely emulate the performance of the Bentley big-motor brethren while greatly improving the gas mileage and making room for the upcoming hybrid and then fully electric line of models. I will miss the sound of a big gas-fired motor, but the rush of acceleration produced by their V8 twin-turbos is equally thrilling; the handling improved by the reduced engine weight of the smaller motor and the impressive gas mileage are wonderful tradeoffs. (Note: At press time, Bentley just introduced the 771-horsepower GT Speed hybrid, so you don’t have to worry about your next Bentley not having enough power!).

Bentley has a way of creating cars that are at once elegant and refined, yet fast and highly responsive. Coupled with their inimitable ability to fabricate luxurious interiors with every detail thoughtfully created out of the finest materials, all Bentleys contain that excellent DNA of great design, high-quality components, excellent ergonomics, and also provide drivers and passengers alike the great satisfaction that they are in a wellthought-out machine. I remain a big fan of the brand and am pleased to report that the company’s move to the smaller-displacement motors does not require any need for lowered expectations: the V8s easily uphold Bentley’s long-term commitment to performance, coupled with luxury.

THE ENDLESS

SUMMER

WHEN STAYING AT THESE CHIC BEACH RETREATS, SUMMER CAN TRULY LAST ALL YEAR LONG.

HOTEL BELLEVUE SYRENE

If we’re talking about oceanfront grand dames, well, Hotel Bellevue Syrene is it. There’s a classic beauty about this Sorrento spot, which first opened its doors in 1820, with its jagged coastline, charming sea views, and incredible art collection. Book the Pompeiana Suite for its stellar views of the Gulf of Naples, Pompeianstyle frescos, and its hydro-massage bathtub. Beyond the sparkling water, the hotel offers much beauty throughout, inclusive of fishponds rife with water lilies that evoke Roman times and frescos painted as a tribute to famous guests which adorn the walls. But beauty isn’t all that’s on offer at this timeless hotel: there’s also a private beach, an incredible wine room with hard-to-find Italian varietals, and the atmospheric La Grotta cave venue. This should be your summertime staple. Piazza della Vittoria, 5, 80067 Sorrento NA, Italy

NOBU HOTEL IBIZA BAY

The free-spirited, stylish haven that is Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay is a great place to embrace the hedonism of Ibiza and the unparalleled wellness and serenity that the Nobu Hotel brand is known for. The property, a collaboration between L+R Hotels and MC Hotels, offers everything a guest could ask for, including 152 designer rooms, an Ibiza Bay Spa by Six Senses, three restaurants — including, of course, its namesake Nobu eatery — a pool bar, and an adults-only pool. The property will keep its health party programming going this fall with a variety of wellness options inclusive of holistic hikes, transformative “Grow Through What You Go Through” mental health retreats, and its signature “Self-Sundays” on its rooftop, complete with sound baths and sunrise yoga. Also, this past June, it was here that chef, founder, and innovator Nobu Matsuhisa unveiled his inaugural, limited-edition menswear collection, Spanish Sushi Club, a collaboration with LA-based designer Chris Stamp. Carrer de Ses Feixes, 52, 07800, Illes Balears, Spain

ART HOTEL VILLA FIORELLA

Art Hotel Villa Fiorella is less a hotel than a beautiful contemporary art gallery on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, located in the quiet village of Massa Lubrense, a few miles from Sorrento, and nestled between the Gulf of Sorrento and the Gulf of Naples. The hotel, which looks like a piece of art itself, is set amid a plethora of olive and lemon trees for that extra Italian touch, with corridors liberally lined with pieces by Alik Cavaliere, Liliana Moro, Davide Rivalta, Takeo Hanazawa, Mario Sironi, Cy Twombly, Sasà Giusto, and Maria Laithes. All of the property’s rooms face the sea, with views of Capri and Vesuvius, though the vistas are most exquisite from the Terrazza Fiorella and the Cielo Sky Lounge. Michelin-starred chef Carmine Mazza helms the kitchen here, with cuisine that suits the location to a “T.” There’s also a spa and infinity pool for additional luxurious touches. Via Vincenzo Maggio, 5, 80061 Massa Lubrense NA, Italy

CAP VERMELL GRAND HOTEL

For a holiday focused on fine dining and relaxation, head to Cap Vermell Grand Hotel, home to gastronomy in the Balearics with Mallorca’s only 2 Michelin star restaurant in VORO, from world-famous chef Álvaro Salazar. The property is beach adjacent, located in the Canyamel Valley in the exclusive northeast of Mallorca, but the ocean views (and waterfront proximity) are stellar here regardless. This summer, come for VORO, where constantly evolving 18- or 22-dish tasting menus are on offer alongside 400 national and international fine wines, as well as pop-up ROKA, a haute cuisine concept from Japan. Also, new for 2024, The Crossing comes to Cap Vermell for the first time, opening on August 14 and offering a journey through the ancestral flavors and innovation of Michelinstarred chef Jitin Joshi’s native Indian cuisine. Indulgences continue throughout the property with its three swimming pools; sauna; pool bar; spa that features a unique quartz sand bed; and proximity to a slew of award-winning golf courses. For the ultimate luxury, book one of the property’s villas, which feature spacious living rooms, a large dining room, four bedrooms, four elegant marble bathrooms with Bottega Veneta products, a private pool, and a fully equipped kitchen.

ANANDES HOTEL MYKONOS

Perched upon a hill within the heart of Mykonos Town, celebrated for its charming architecture and vibrant energy, is the gorgeous new boutique Anandes Hotel, which opened its doors in June. The small but mighty property features just 42 rooms and suites, many equipped with private pools, all of which have ocean views. Designed by Studio Bonarchi, the property blends traditional elements with avant-garde design in a Cycladic style, using embossed pine wood, linen fabrics, and rattan throughout, with custom light fixtures from French sculptor and artist Philippe Antonioz, and specially designed artworks from the likes of Richard Serra and Thomas Houseago. Each room features Bang & Olufsen products, custom bedding, as well as bathrobes, slippers, and bathroom amenities by Frédéric Malle. In addition to a spa and 24-hour gym, the property houses internationally acclaimed French Rivierainspired restaurant La Petite Maison (LPM), for which a bespoke menu for poolside dining has been created; it seamlessly marries the signature French Riviera flair with Greek influences and sophisticated cocktails like its signature Tomatini. Street of Fine Arts, Mikonos 846 00, Greece

HÔTEL BYBLOS

Is there a more glamorous summer destination than Saint-Tropez? That’s a rhetorical question. Those who agree and are looking to really soak up the best of the French Riviera, book the luxury palace that is Hôtel Byblos. This haute hotel in the center of Saint-Tropez recently unveiled four exclusive suites in collaboration with Parisian designer Laura Gonzalez, who has previously designed Paris’ tony Saint James hotel and residences and Hôtel Hana, among others. For her first project in the area, Gonzalez drew inspiration from the hotel’s rich history, using vibrant colors like coral and celadon, weaving in vintage items and unique creations such as the ceramic minibars inspired by 1970s travel trunks, and marquetry wooden doors made by hand. Beyond the new suites, the offerings here are sublime: Cucina Byblos, a restaurant by Alain Ducasse, the most decorated chef in the world; a Sisley spa that gifts guests with the immersive “Eaux Rêvées” water journey, with its Turkish baths, sauna and waterfalls, at any point during their stay; an incredible beach club in Byblos Beach Ramatuelle, one of the best of its kind in Pampelonne; and a magical, mythical nightclub in Les Caves du Roy. 20 Av. Paul Signac, 83990 Saint-Tropez, France

AMANRUYA

The Aman brand is one of the most storied in the world, and Amanruya, its property in stunning Bodrum, on the glamorous Turkish Riviera, is no exception. Here, enjoy the sights of the turquoise Aegean waters from the hotel’s private pebble beach, while an ancient pine forest with olive groves and cypress trees provide a stunning, otherworldly backdrop. The village-like resort offers a calm and quiet respite from the hustle and bustle of Bodrum with free-standing guest pavilions, all of which house private pools; a stunning beach club; home-style Mediterranean fare; a holistic spa with a menu inspired by traditional Turkish wellness practices; a variety of complimentary water sports such as paddle boarding, snorkeling, canoeing, and kayaking; art exhibits; and Turkish cooking classes, among other things. It is, as its name suggests, a “peaceful dream” indeed, and one that can actually come true. Göltürkbükü, Demir Mevkii, Bülent Ecevit Cd., 48483 Bodrum/Muğla, Türkiye

DOMESTIC

ROSEWOOD MIRAMAR BEACH

For an idyllic stay on the American Riviera, head to stunning Montecito, home to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, and book a stay at the unparalleled Rosewood Miramar Beach. This stunning resort, which is spread across 16 acres of pristine beachfront, is the only hotel in Southern California to offer guestrooms set directly on the sand. As conceived by developer and owner Rick Caruso, the property pays tribute to the late esteemed Southern Californian architect Paul R. Williams, with elements such as the Manor House’s luxuriantly curved staircase and the Cabana Pool’s distinctive serpentine-edge design. Every thoughtful and seemingly small touch is luxurious, inclusive of a custom “Marine Fresh” amenity line, Rivolta Carmignani bed linens, and Mariage Frères teas. There are also plenty of fashion collaborations, including a stunning new Bottega Veneta store, which joins boutiques like Brunello Cucinelli and Gwyneth Paltrow’s goop. Its array of activities, seven dining destinations, inclusive of the Michelin starred Caruso’s, and the serene Sense, a Rosewood Spa, makes this one to beat. 1759 S Jameson Ln, Montecito, CA 93108

MONTAGE LAGUNA BEACH

Perched on a coastal bluff high above the Pacific Ocean is Orange County’s chicest waterfront resort, the breathtaking Montage Laguna Beach. In addition to stellar views of the sea and an award-winning spa, special offerings include a private helicopter charter complete with an oceanfront champagne picnic on Catalina Island; a summer-long pop-up of Montage Los Cabos’ Thai eatery, Talay, in the Studio Garden; private e-bike and kayak tours; its Class with a Glass wine tasting series; Sunday Veuve Clicquot champagne brunch at The Loft; and a decadent afternoon tea with a slew of tea-based, boozy cocktails (our favorite being the London Fog: Earl Grey-infused Gardener French Riviera gin, bergamot, lemon, and lavender with a vanilla honey foam), as well as house champagne Krug on the menu. For an extra special afternoon, embark on a chartered boat experience through Newport Beach aboard the property’s luxurious 36-foot Aviara yacht. 30801 Coast Hwy, Laguna Beach, CA 92651

HALEKULANI

Halekulani is, hands-down, one of the most impressive hotels in the world. Starting with a ginger blossom lei and plentiful alohas, a stay at this oceanfront resort in Waikiki leaps from strength to strength. This luxurious, 453-room hotel, situated on five prime oceanfront acres on Waikiki Beach, is a one-stop shop for seemingly everything: it houses three restaurants, two cocktail lounges, one pool/bar, a spa, fitness and movement studio, business center, hospitality suite, a print shop, bakery, and florist. Here, many of the guest rooms have ocean views with the iconic Diamond Head volcano in the background, though the crème de la crème are the Premier Suites; our vote being for the Royal Suite, which features two bedrooms, a dining room, dressing area, a large wraparound lanai, and a 24-hour personal butler. Come for high-end eatery House Without A Key with its nightly Hawaiian music and hula dancers (insider tip: book Ernest Hemingway’s favored table, number 97); the sensational afternoon tea at Orchids; one of the biggest and best Sunday brunches in Hawaii; and L’Apéritif, a bar inspired by the cocktail culture of the late 19th century executed in collaboration with the Ritz Paris. Its newly renovated SpaHalekulani opened this summer with some of the most innovative treatments in America, with elements like vibroacoustics tables that feature surround sound for noise blanketing, built-in heating, and aromatherapy for ultimate relaxation. Each suite will have a distinct water feature, ranging from a Japanese ofuro (the only one in Waikiki) to a rain shower. We predict many awards in its future. 2199 Kālia Rd, Honolulu, HI 96815

OCEAN HOUSE

Perched high on the bluffs of Watch Hill, Rhode Island, overlooking a pristine stretch of white sand beach with sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, is Ocean House, one of the best beach hotels in New England. The resort — which is located in the very same town as Taylor Swift’s vacation paradise — originally opened in 1868, but today, has a more modern esthetic, with a slew of thoughtful touches that make the stay incredibly memorable: an in-room private bar with complimentary non-alcoholic beverages and gourmet snacks (Signature Suites also offer a selection of gratis alcoholic drinks); large terraces and/or fireplaces; marble bathrooms, some of which come with deep soaking tubs; six restaurants; a spa with seasonally changing treatments inspired by the ocean and the harvest; a 65-foot indoor lap pool and squash courts; a movement studio with a virtual fitness system; the Center for Wine and Culinary Arts; a 650-foot white sand beach with cabanas; a championship-level croquet lawn, putting green, shuffleboard court, and billiards room; private yacht and fishing charters; and even a screening room.

HENDERSON BEACH RESORT

Head down to Destin, Florida, featured in the aptly named Taylor Swift track “Florida!!!” to see what all the fuss is about at this epic Gulf Coast destination.

The area’s pièce de résistance is the Henderson Beach Resort, a property reminiscent of a luxurious grand seaside manner of days past. Inside, the 170-room hotel features spacious, coastal-inspired guest rooms and suites with sweeping balconies or terraces, coastal-inspired dining in a relaxed setting, a beautiful, nature-inspired spa with cutting-edge treatments, and two swimming pools. Best of all, guests enjoy private beach access, and on a beach this incredible, that’s something no visitor should take for granted. 200 Henderson Resort Way, Destin, FL 32541

LITTLE PALM ISLAND

America’s only private island resort — located in the Florida Keys — is a pretty sensational spot to spend a vacation. Arrive by seaplane or private boat at this adults-only paradise with its charming, thatched roof bungalows, and take advantage of its extreme new offering, the “Impactful Indulgence” package. Starting at $250,000, this three-night resort buyout includes use of all 30 suites for up to 60 guests; direct access to its SpaTerre for sustainable facial and massage treatments such as the Organic Slimming Seaweed Leaf Wrap that utilizes hand-harvested seaweed leaves; complimentary dockage for up to five yachts; and a welcome amenity of Nicolas Feuillatte champagne, among other offerings.

With this donation, guests can experience a first-hand look into ocean conservation while taking a half-day excursion with a world-class Mote scientist to “plant” coral in order to help with reef restoration. 28500 Overseas Hwy, Little Torch Key, FL 33042
