From the Editor

No matter how much we love Palm Beach, summer lures us to places near and far, each destination bearing the promise of a new adventure. That process of discovery informs our July/August issue, dedicated this year to all the areas that suffered after last summer’s mean hurricane season—and have gloriously bounced back.

First on the list is our cover location, St. Barth. Like many Palm Beachers, I’ve adored this island for as long as I can remember. There’s no denying its beauty, seen in its cove beaches and charming hillside towns, but its cosmopolitan vibe—like a slice of the Côte d’Azur in the Caribbean—is second to none. In “Boho Cool” (page 31), we visit Villa Marie Saint-Barth, a design-centric resort on a windswept hilltop, for an off-the-beaten-path take on the island.

In what has become a summer tradition, we take a “Road Trip” through many beloved destinations in Florida and the South, starting on page 40. Join us as we explore the star attractions, hidden gems, local culture, and top dining options of such spots as Oxford, Mississippi; Winston-Salem, North Carolina; and enchanting Daufuskie Island off the South Carolina coast. You’re bound to find at least one new place worth visiting—or rediscovering.

For families, we have assembled a fun guide to day trips and camps that will make summer fly by. Want to be the coolest parent in the neighborhood? Arrange a nighttime kayak trip to a bioluminescent bay, plan a play session with baby primates, or let the kiddos zip and soar through a forest canopy. Flip through “Family Fun in the Sunshine State,” starting on page 52, for more winning ideas.

Whether your summer plans take you on adventures in our beautiful backyard or halfway around the world, our pages are sure to inform and inspire. Enjoy it all!

Q&A

Insider

BY MARY MURRAY

MIRANDA LAMBERT

Country musician Miranda Lambert’s career has been as golden has her trademark blond locks. The Texas native began playing the guitar and writing songs as a child and formed her first band while still in high school. After scoring a recording contract—helped in part by a stint on the reality competition series Nashville Star—Lambert released her major label debut, Kerosene, in 2005. Since then, she’s won two Grammys and a record-setting 32 Academy of Country Music Awards. In April, she was recognized as the ACM Female Vocalist of the Year for the ninth time in a row, making her the current record holder in that category, as well.

On August 4, she’ll perform her arsenal of hits at the Coral Sky Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach. PBI recently caught up with Lambert to discuss her songwriting, the concert, and her co-headliners, Little Big Town. (561-795-8883, westpalmbeachamphitheatre.com)

REID LONG

Who is Miranda Lambert’s dream duet partner? Find out at palmbeach illustrated.com/ mirandalambert

PBI: Which musicians were you most inspired by as a child?

Lambert: My Dad. He’s a singer-songwriter and at the very beginning of my career he taught me how to write my own songs and showed me how important it was to have my own voice. Artists like Merle Haggard and Lorretta Lynn were also big influences and that has never changed. Their music really spoke to me and no doubt influenced my songwriting direction.

I’ve always admired that they told their true stories.

How do you feel your songwriting has evolved?

I am not sure it has changed much. I would say it

has evolved as I have gotten older and have had more life experience. I always want to write about the truth, because it’s somebody else’s truth, too. It means a lot to me that someone can relate to what I’m writing about.

What can audiences expect from your concert at the Coral Sky Amphitheatre?

I’m so excited about this tour as my good friends Little Big Town are out on the road with me. It’s going to be an amazing show with some cool surprises.

I’ve been to West Palm Beach a couple of times in my career and it’s always a fun time, so hopefully I’ll

see some familiar faces.

What do you most admire or enjoy about your coheadliners, Little Big Town?

Everything! We have been talking about going out on tour together for many years now, and it’s exciting that we are actually getting to do it this summer.

Little Big Town are amazing artists and they are the best at singing harmonies.

What are your pre-show rituals?

I’m really close with my band so we always hang out in Wanda, my Airstream, before the show. We also do a prayer before taking the stage.

BIRTH FLOWERS AT A GLANCE JANUARY: CARNATION, SNOWDROP FEBRUARY: VIOLET, PRIMROSE MARCH: DAFFODIL, JONQUIL APRIL: DAISY, SWEET PEA MAY: LILY OF THE VALLEY, HAWTHORN JUNE: ROSE, HONEYSUCKLE JULY: WATER LILY, LARKSPUR AUGUST: GLADIOLUS, POPPY SEPTEMBER: ASTER, MORNING GLORY OCTOBER: MARIGOLD, COSMOS NOVEMBER: CHRYSANTHEMUM DECEMBER: NARCISSUS, HOLLY

In addition to birthstones, months are also designated one or more birth flowers, with each bud personifying distinct traits. July’s flowers, for example, are the water lily, which conveys purity, and the larkspur, whose meaning varies depending on color but can represent fickleness (pink), joyfulness (white), and a first love (purple). August can claim the gladiolus, which signifies integrity, and the poppy that, again, takes on different connotations based on its hue, with red equaling pleasure and yellow translating to success.

Whether or not these flowers truly reflect a birthday boy or girl, composing a unique gift of birth flowers can be a thoughtful gesture. Halle Frey of Flower and Fringe in West Palm Beach put together this joint July/August birth flower bouquet consisting of larkspurs, poppies, and gladioluses. (561-596-4831, flowerandfringe.com)

PROMOTION

Power to the Tiano, Armour & Smyth Wealth Managers J.P. Morgan Securities

Sal Tiano, Louise Armour and John Smyth collectively have more than 85 years of wealth management experience in the industry, predominantly at the same firm. That speaks volumes to their commitment to clients, to each other and to their firm, J.P. Morgan Securities.

Together, they have assembled a team of specialists that offers what Tiano calls, “structural alpha”: adding value with thoughtful advice and experience in every aspect of the client’s financial life.

“As our own experience at one firm attests, we offer stability and success over the long term,” says Tiano. “We have the capability to handle almost anything a client may need – borrowing, banking, sophisticated money management and estate planning.”

Over time, their practice has grown – largely through client referrals and deepening relationships with the next generation. They now oversee nearly $3.3 billion in individual- and family-owned assets. “We form relationships with families, and they tend to stay with us over the long term. Stability and loyalty are hallmarks of our practice.”

COMING TOGETHER: CARING ABOUT CLIENTS IN THE SAME WAY As highly successful Financial Advisors, Tiano and Armour were aware of one another and were long-time colleagues. Then they had a chance to experience how each worked first-hand. Tiano serves on the board of a regional theatre group. “Louise was among the candidates who responded to our search for someone to manage the endowment.

I saw her exceptional standard of detail and follow-through as well as investment acumen. I thought to myself, ‘She cares about her clients the way I care about mine.’”

“I was a lone wolf for nearly 34 years,” says Armour. “So you can imagine the fortitude it took to go it alone in a largely male-dominated industry. I wasn’t looking to partner with anyone, but I was so impressed with Sal’s integrity, professionalism and the great respect he had for his

3

rd

clients. I thought, ‘He’s the kind of Advisor I could team up with because he puts his clients first as well.’”

It wasn’t long before they began working together. Meanwhile, Smyth had moved from San Francisco to Palm Beach, and his children attended the same school as Tiano’s. His background in fixed income and experience in the bond pit at the Chicago Board of Trade would be, Tiano realized, the ideal complement to his and Armour’s wealth management experience. “We put our egos aside, and three veteran Advisors came together to form what has proved to be a very successful practice for our clients,” says Tiano.

EXPERTISE MATTERS The team has its own investment committee whose research and analysis from across the firm help guide its portfolio management.

“What is unique about our group,” says Smyth, “is that we have bankers, fixed income specialists, Certified Financial Planners (CFPs) and Chartered Financial Analysts (CFAs), all on the same team. To have access to this degree of expertise is very unusual and allows us to anticipate our clients’ needs and serve them better.”

“We have different views that we enjoy discussing,” notes Armour, “and because we have different styles and strengths, we are stronger as a team.”

COMMITMENT TO OUR COMMUNITY In addition to a passion for their clients and their work, the triumvirate share an allegiance to giving back to their communities. Smyth is very involved in Choate Rosemary Hall, his high school alma mater, and Armour actively fundraises for the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Tiano sits on the boards of several organizations, including the Planned Giving Council of the Place of Hope, a child welfare organization.

COMMITMENT TO CLIENTS The team is 13-members strong, each contributing a unique experience and forming a cohesive unit with the common goal of client first.

for Raising Culturally TIPS 5 Competent Kids

1

Discover. Visit your local library to find books on different countries and cultures. Bring this research to life by going online to view photos, videos, music, art, landscapes, and more.

Learning how kids live in other countries is not only interesting, it also offers a new perspective and helps everything become less “foreign.”

2

Speak. Make a commitment to start your child on the path to learning a foreign language. Try a group class with an instructor to make the learning cost effective and fun. Foreign language apps and other programs are also great tools. The key is to practice consistently and surround your child with the language as much as possible.

20 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Thanks to advanced communication, ubiquitous social media, and ease of travel, the world is more accessible than ever. With the right guidance, a culturally competent child can hold this world in the palm of his or her hand—and parents can begin this education at home.

In fact, parents play a critical role in instilling cultural sensitivity as children model their behavior, both good and bad. When Mom and Dad are curious, respectful, and empathetic, children follow suit. Caryn Antonini, founder of Early Lingo language programs and parttime Palm Beacher, offers these five tips to help your child become a citizen of the world.

3

Manners and Etiquette. Manners differ greatly around the world, so it’s a good idea to get a handle on them as early as possible to learn what’s appropriate and what’s taboo before traveling abroad. While a thumbs-up might be okay in the United States, it has another meaning entirely in countries like Greece and Argentina.

4

Eat. Try new foods together and learn about their origins. Be authentic and use chopsticks, skewers, or hands as appropriate. Cooking classes can be an effective way of exploring an important aspect of a culture.

5 Make a Difference. When children are taught how to protect and preserve their environment, they can become stewards of change. There are many global issues that affect our world, from ocean pollution to the threats facing endangered species. Even changes on a micro level are a good start.

Experienced specialists committed to one type of cancer. Yours.

BOHO COOL

The French art de vivre is eloquently articulated in Villa Marie Saint-Barth’s bohemian, globally gathered spirit

By Daphne Nikolopoulos

PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | JULY/AUGUST 2018

31

Escape

Villa Marie Saint-Barth is a bohemian rhapsody of natural materials, ethnic textiles, a profusion of seashells, and globally sourced accessories, brought together with a healthy dose of French chic.

32

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Ever since the French first set foot in St. Barthélemy, in the seventeenth century, the West Indies island has pulsed with a certain worldly frisson. These days, St. Barth’s famous flair is seen in its red-roofed villages tumbling toward sapphire harbors, the multitudes of yachts beyond its Saint-Tropez-like beaches, the sophisticated vibe at its bars and restaurants, and the insanely chic boutique hotels frequented by the American and European jet set.

Though many of the latter are centered

around Flamands beach, a few are hidden beyond the well-traveled path yet offer ample ambience and as much luxury as their counterparts at the water’s edge.

Tucked among the frangipanis and palms on a hilltop above the beaches, Villa Marie Saint-Barth is one such gem that oozes bohemian cool and that French je ne sais quoi.

Much of its charm is owed to Jocelyne Sibuet, whose family-owned hotels include Les Fermes de Marie in Megève and Villa Marie Saint-Tropez. The visionary hotelier has imbued the company’s first Caribbean property with an eclectic, global style appreciated by the world’s gypsets—uber-fashionable women and men who prize creative expression as much as the high life.

A bit of a gypset herself, Sibuet traveled across eight countries to source the precise objects that would bring her vision to life.

Throughout the property’s 23 villas and suites, each of which is individually designed, such finds as a feather trophy from Indonesia or brass pineapple mirrors from Morocco speak to Villa Marie’s collected vibe. Everything is handcrafted and rooted in the Earth, with a particular nod to the ocean. Sibuet placed special emphasis on seashells because, she says, they “refer to the seaside spirit.” Shells are literally everywhere, from the custom baroque chandeliers and vanity mirrors to tribal necklaces, and they complement other natural accents like raffia lampshades and bamboo everything.

The Villa’s residential flair is seen in the library (above), where jet-setters gather for a rum cocktail before dinner at François Plantation (far right).

Owner Jocelyne Sibuet traveled to eight countries to source objects like shell mirrors and massive ceremonial jewelry.

With their carefully curated furnishings and textiles, the accommodations recall a posh friend’s island getaway more than they do a hotel room. Balconies and broad decks provide residential-style retreats where you can lounge, rum cocktail in hand, and take in the delicate breezes sweeping the hillside.

Some of the villas have private pools with panoramic views of the sea below. It’s the best of both worlds—a romantic, secluded setting with easy access to the greater universe of St. Barth, should you want it.

A series of steps, similar to those you might traverse in Èze or Mykonos, lead down to the intimate Pure Altitude Spa (with all of two treatment rooms) and the library, with its vintage rattan details, Colonial furnishings, and unusual ethnic textiles. The library also is home to François Plantation, Villa Marie’s signature restaurant. The dining room overlooks the gardens, which are beautifully lit by night, and recalls the West Indies of yesteryear. Begin with a Ti Punch from the Rum Bar and nibble on homemade foie gras with apple and pineapple chutney. The dinner entrées are, unsurprisingly, seafood-centric

and include an excellent sole meunière, filleted tableside, and the house specialty, bouillabaisse. If available, don’t pass up the pineapple carpaccio for a sweet but bikinifriendly ending to the meal.

The hotel feels remote, but in fact it is a short walk from the enchanting town of

Gustavia and beaches both cosmopolitan and deliciously private. Ask the Villa Marie concierge to arrange a picnic lunch—with a bottle of rosé, naturally—and point you to a secluded cove where you can build your own gypset memories. (800-490-0271, saint-barth.villamarie.fr) «

In Grand Style The svelte new Mercedes-Benz E400 coupe will take you from sea to sky with finesse and power

By Howard Walker We’re on the road to Lillooet. Spearing north on 99, through Furry Creek and Squamish. Bustling Vancouver in the rearview, Mount Garibaldi on the right, the ski slopes of Whistler up ahead.

This is the breathtaking Sea-to-Sky Highway, a snaking ribbon of blacktop that clings to the edge of wind-swept Howe Sound before soaring to the heavenly heights that are British Columbia’s Coast Mountains.

Around every twist and turn there’s a seemingly never-ending array of towering granite cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and glacial lakes the icy-blue hue of Windex. The urge to con36

tinuously pull over and drink in this magical landscape is overwhelming.

When Florida’s searing summer heat becomes too much to bear, consider taking a drive where the air is cool, the sun is warm, and the scenery is beyond spectacular. The perfect transportation for such an ascension?

Mercedes-Benz’s gorgeous new E400 coupe.

Gaze at this car in profile, with all four side windows lowered and no central B-pillar to interrupt the flow, and there’s a purity of design so rarely seen in modern coupes. This might just be the most elegant, most exquisitely proportioned automobile around.

POWER FILE

PRICE: From $58,895; $84,785 as tested ENGINE: 3.0-liter twin-turbo V-6 POWER: 329 hp TORQUE: 354 lb-ft TRANSMISSION: 9-speed automatic 0-60: 5.2 seconds TOP SPEED: 128 mph LENGTH/WIDTH: 190/81 inches WEIGHT: 4,314 pounds WHY WE LOVE IT: Because it

simply defines the term Grand Tourer.

Part of its considerable appeal—in addition to its sensuous lines—is size. The previous E-Class coupe was misguidedly based on a stretched C-Class platform, with the kind of rear-seat space best suited to Lord of the Rings hobbits. This version takes cues from the latest E-Class sedan, resulting in a proper fourseater with adult-sized knee room and generous (for a rakish coupe) headroom.

Another one of Mercedes’ inspired decisions was to endow this E coupe with the company’s twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6, an engine

that surely runs on a mix of Reddi-wip and liquid Teflon.

Whisper-quiet and turbinesmooth, it whisks this twodoor from standstill to 60 mph in a spritely 5.2 seconds, and with barely a peep from under the hood.

The V-6’s 329 horsepower comes in handy as the Seato-Sky climbs toward Mount Matier on its way to majestic Seton Lake. Squeeze the throttle and the Benz’s 9-speed automatic shifts ratios with the silky ease of hot molasses flowing from a jar.

There’s a subtle wonderment in the way this car glides down the road. One simply cannot find a frenetic bone in its entire body. No, the E400’s focus is on refinement and finesse, style and sophistication.

Yet it’s no slouch when Highway 99 gets zigzaggy. Beautifully weighted, scalpel-precise steering makes carving curves a joy. Dial up Sport or Sport+ using the Dynamic Select rocker for a sharper edge, and it’s like adding Red Bull to the gas tank. Or, stick to Comfort and fly through

the turns like you’re riding a magic carpet.

If all this wasn’t impressive enough, this classy coupe’s cabin is what really slackens jaws. The look, feel, and quality is Mercedes-Benz at its finest. All that quilted nappa leather, the yachty wood trim, and those laser-cut perforations of the Burmeister speakers are total eye candy.

It also couples Old World appeal with some of the coolest tech out there. The car’s foot-wide Cinemascope touch screen is a pinch-andswipe iPad that displays maps with pinpoint clarity. And it would take a week of Tuesdays to list the state-of-the-art technology invisible to the eye. From Evasive Steering Assist, to Active Lane-Keeping and -Changing Assist, to Speed Limit Assist which automatically adjusts speed to match posted limits—the car can literally drive itself.

As we roll into sleepy Lillooet and pull into the Fort Berens Estate Winery on the banks of the Fraser River, it’s hard not to be besotted with this most graceful of Grand Tourers. If there’s one car that fulfills Mercedes’ promise of “The Best or Nothing,” this is it. It’s an E that gets an A. «

Middleburg, VA GREENER PASTURES

First known as the nation’s horse-and-hunt capital, Middleburg, Virginia gushes small-town charm steeped in rich history. American Revolutionary War Lieutenant Colonel Leven Powell founded Middleburg in 1787 with the property he purchased from one of George Washington’s cousins. In the early years, foxhunting and steeplechasing were the big draws. Today, it’s a place to unwind for a luxurious respite in what is now considered horse and wine plenty to explore when visiting this gem in the Virginia foothills.

Back at Salamander Resort & Spa, luxuriate on a heated tepidarium lounge chair, participate in a cooking class, or dine on jumbo tiger prawns at Harrimans Virginia Piedmont Grill.

Virginia is the fifth-largest winegrape producer in the country, and the smattering of wineries in and around Middleburg cater to all tastes. Situated on Route 50, the aptly named 50 West Vineyards (50westvineyards.com) has garnered medals at the Loudoun Wine Awards and the Virginia Governor’s Cup. Connoisseurs should drive a half-hour west to Delaplane and stop at RdV Vineyards (rdvvineyards.com), which has received praise from notable wine critic Robert Parker. For a more casual experience, Quattro Goombas Winery (goombawine.com) is a popular choice. Aside from tastings, it’s known for its signature wine slushie that will instantly transport you to giddy college days. Pair it with a slice of deep-dish pizza topped with Grandma’s ground pepperoni from the shop inside the winery. There’s also a craft brewery next door, and fur babies are welcome in the outdoor seating areas.

Upon returning to Middleburg, shop the town’s historic district packed with quaint boutiques. At the end of the street, rest your heels at Mt. Defiance Cidery & Distillery (mtdefiance.com) for a spirits tasting. Back at the resort, the full-service equestrian center offers lessons and scenic

Don’t miss the crispy cauliflower but be warned: It’s addictive. During Sunday brunch, executive pastry chef Jason Reaves (known for his several appearances on Food Network shows) fills the room with extravagant sweets, such as pecan-butterscotch scones, chocolate lavender pot de crèmes, and mascarpone cheesecake tarts.

Any itinerary should include the three-level aquarium and a show in the cutting-edge planetarium, but be sure to leave time to wander through the various special exhibitions, such as “The Power of Poison.” On view through September 3, this exhibit looks at poison’s role in nature, human health, and mythology, with live poisonous species (like dart frogs) on display and interactive tableaus that ask youngsters to solve poisoning mysteries.

ZOOLOGICAL WILDLIFE FOUNDATION Miami (zoologicalwildlifefoundation.com)

PLANNING NOTE: TOURS ARE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY AND SPACE IS LIMITED. WHILE WALK-INS WILL BE ACCOMMODATED IF SPACE ALLOWS, IT’S BEST TO MAKE A RESERVATION FAR AHEAD OF YOUR VISIT.

THE COOL FACTOR: Get up close and personal with Miami’s most exotic—and often adorable—residents. Zoological Wildlife Foundation aims to educate the public about rare and endangered animals, offering tours of its five-acre facility, home to primates, reptiles, lions, and rare birds, among others. Up the ante by splurging on amazing addons such as tiger cub, jaguar cub, or baby chimpanzee encounters or the primate experience, which includes a play session with three types of baby primates.

ROAD TO

SEA

THESE NINE WATER-WORTHY DREAM MACHINES FROM LUXURY MAKERS COME WITH AUTOMOTIVE TIES

BY HOWARD WALKER

ROLLS-ROYCE AEROBOAT S6 In your best Downton Abbey–affected accent, repeat after me: “Powered by Rolls-Royce.” It has such a lovely ring to it. The breathtaking new Aeroboat S6 from acclaimed British designer Claydon Reeves is 65 feet of nautical style, muscle, and pure hedonistic luxury. The Rolls-Royce here, however, shouldn’t be confused with the purveyors of such automotive magnificence as the latest Phantom or Ghost. This Rolls-Royce is the maker of those humongous engines inside most of the world’s jetliners. It also owns the German MTU marine engine powerhouse.

Naturally, a pair of MTU V-10 diesels packing 1,500 horsepower each propel this latest Aeroboat toward the horizon at up to 48 knots. Crafted from a mix of aluminum and carbon, the S6 is quite the head-turner, outfitted with a bluff, vertical bow and a teardrop cockpit featuring wide steps leading to a huge swim platform. A large midship section on the starboard side also opens up to reveal a tender garage. Below deck, there’s an exquisite owners’ lounge with twin cabins and a spacious shower. (aeroboat.co.uk)

Corresponding Car: Rolls-Royce Phantom Sweptail Before you ask, no, this unbelievable one-off, custom-built, two-door, two-seat Rolls-Royce fastback is not for sale. Nor, as part of the agreement with its exceedingly wealthy owner, can it ever be duplicated. Estimated to have cost around $13 million, it took four years to conceive and make, and features a stunning boattail rear section and a panoramic glass roof.

Corresponding Car: Fisker EMotion Henrik Fisker is planning to out-Tesla Tesla with a gull wing–door, four-seat, plug-in electric sedan he’s calling the Fisker EMotion. Right now, it’s just a concept. Fisker has a history of making some bold claims, and the car’s 400-mile range, 161-mph top speed, and 2019 launch date could be considered three of them. But the $130,000 sedan certainly looks enticing.

BENETTI FISKER 50 You might have heard the name Henrik Fisker. This hyper-energetic Dane came up with the look of landmark cars like the BMW Z8 roadster and Aston Martin DB9. That was before branching out on his own to design and build the Fisker Karma hybrid sedan. But back in 2015, Italian maker Benetti asked him to put his own spin on a 164-foot superyacht. The new Benetti Fisker 50, priced around $37 million, is currently being completed at Benetti’s Livorno yard and should be water-ready later this year. And what a looker she is, with plenty of car-inspired elements, including three stainless steel blades on the bow meant to loosely resemble the grille of a sports car. Fisker also came up with some innovative interior features, like a long bar in the salon that flips up to become a dining table, and a rooftop ice chest that converts into a fire pit. (benettiyachts.it)

RIVA LAMBORGHINI Back in the swinging ’60s, if you wanted to wow the crowds on the Côte d’Azur or Lago di Como, the boat to own was a Riva Aquarama. Still is. Ferruccio Lamborghini, owner of the Italian sports car company, felt the same way, and, in 1968, reserved hull No. 278 from Carlo Riva. Not wanting the big American V-8s that came with the Aquarama, Lamborghini persuaded Riva to install a pair of 350-hp 4.0-liter V-12s from the Lamborghini 350 GT sports car. With a top speed of 48 knots, it became the fastest Aquarama ever. Fast-forward to 2013 and, after years of the Riva Lamborghini decaying under a boatyard cover, a Dutch Riva collector discovered it and handed it over to Riva World in Holland for a full bow-to-stern restoration. Now complete and better than new, it’s for sale for roughly $2.7 million. (riva-world.com)

Corresponding Car: 1966 Lamborghini 350 GT If you’re going to have a Lamborghini-engineered Riva, you need a classic Lamborghini to go with it.

And there’s no better choice to capture la dolce vita than a 350 GT two-door coupe built between 1964 and 1966. It was the 350 GT’s 4.0-liter V-12 engines that Ferruccio Lamborghini used to power his one-off Riva. Today, expect to pay around $600,000 for a good one.

Corresponding Car: Lexus LC 500 As curvy and sensuous as the Lexus Sport Yacht, the twodoor LC 500 is a masterpiece of design. Even Lexus’ trademark spindle grille doesn’t induce a gag reflex the way it does on other models. Priced from $92,995, this road-going supermodel comes with a 471-hp 5.0-liter V-8 mated to a 10-speed automatic.

LEXUS SPORT YACHT If you’re Lexus and you want to promote the “Lexus lifestyle,” you either build yourself a fancy jet or an equally fancy boat. Being that the head of Lexus’ parent company, Toyota, enjoys life on the high seas, a boat was a no-brainer. When it came to constructing this 42-foot express cruiser, Lexus turned to Wisconsin-based Marquis Yachts. A couple of 5.0-liter 440-hp gas V-8s similar to those motivating the latest Lexus LC 500 coupe power the Sport Yacht, which is made from super-light carbon fiber–reinforced GRP. At wide-open throttle, it’s good for a smooth-riding 45 knots, with the hushed noise levels you’d expect of a Lexus. The helm rests at the center of the cockpit, with wave-shaped seating along each side that allows six passengers to either face forward or each other. Down below, there are no sleeping arrangements, just a casual cabin lined with glove-soft Lexus leather. Sadly, there are no plans to produce the Lexus Sport Yacht, though Lexus boss Akio Toyoda must be very happy with his new toy. (lexus.com)

PORSCHE DESIGN DYNAMIQ GTT 115 The styling for the 115-foot Dynamiq GTT 115 came from the Studio F.A. Porsche drawing board, so naturally it shares many design cues with the German drive brand. Its carpets and cushions boast the Pepita houndstooth used in classic Porsche 911 two-seaters. That Rhodium Silver Metallic hull color is from the current Porsche palette. And those swoopy buttresses supporting the hardtop are reminiscent of the roof reinforcements in the latest 911 Targa. Seven of these 21-knot, all-aluminum superyachts are available, starting at $16 million. Power comes from a hybrid propulsion system featuring twin 1,650-hp MAN V-12 diesels coupled to a trio of variable-speed generators. In electric mode, it can cruise at 6 to 7 knots in silence, or cross the Atlantic at 10 knots on a single tank. (bedynamiq.com) Corresponding Car: Porsche Mission E Order your Dynamiq GTT 115 now and it might be delivered at the same time that Porsche’s first all-electric production car hits the streets. Due in 2019, the Mission E will be available with up to 670 horsepower, a zero-to-60 acceleration of 3.5 seconds, and the ability to cruise for up to 300 miles on zero-emission electric power.

This four-seat convertible got a makeover for 2018, with the addition of a theatrical Panamericana toothed grille, though the whisper-quiet 6.0-liter 621-hp V-12 remains.

MERCEDES-BENZ ARROW460-GRANTURISMO The 46-foot Arrow460-Granturismo is the work of Mercedes-Benz Style and Silver Arrows Marine, a new British boat builder. With a severe lack of outdoor lounging space, this vessel is a bit of a head-scratcher. The cockpit has seating for just two people, leaving additional guests to chill below deck.

It’s only when you drop anchor and press a button to raise a glass roof at the front of the cabin that you can feel the sun on your face. It’s also a bit disappointing that instead of a couple mighty Mercedes diesels spinning the props, you have to make do with twin 480-hp six-cylinder Yanmars. But they’re happy to push the Arrow46 to a top speed of 38 knots. Visually, however, it’s a thing of beauty, with its wave-piercing hull and a cabin that mimics the roofline of a Mercedes S-Class Coupe. (silverarrowsmarine.com)

BUGATTI NINIETTE 66

Corresponding Car: Bugatti Chiron If you thought the Chiron’s successor, the legendary Veyron, was insane, contemplate for a moment a few jaw-slacking numbers. Like the 1,479 horses produced from the Chiron’s 8.0-liter quad turbocharged W-16 that drives all four wheels.

Or the zero-to-60-acceleration time of 2.4 seconds. Or the expected top speed of 288 mph. All this for $2,998,000.

When you feel the need for speed, those fast-and-furious fat cats at Bugatti will happily sell you a 1,500-hp Chiron hypercar. The problem? Only two seats.

Therefore, if you want to share a few thrills with like-minded friends, you’re going to need a boat. Which is why VW-owned Bugatti has teamed up with American superyacht builder Palmer Johnson to create the new Bugatti Niniette 66. And if you’re wondering where the slightly effeminate moniker comes from, it was the nickname of founder Ettore Bugatti’s youngest daughter, Lidia. The 66 is the first in a series of Bugatti yachts, ranging from 50 to 80 feet long and powered by a pair of 1,000-hp MAN V-8 diesels that punch it to a top speed of around 44 knots. But what spins heads faster than a Beyoncé sighting at Costco is the dramatic styling that echoes the sculpted profile of the Chiron. That, and the clever hull design with a slender center section and side sponsons that result in superior speed and stability. (bugattininiette.com)

MERCEDES-AMG CIGARETTE 515 PROJECT ONE If you’re one of the lucky 275 speed demons chomping at the bit to receive your new $2.8 million Mercedes Formula One–inspired Project One hypercar, boy do we have a boat for you. The AMG Cigarette Racing 515 Project One costs $2 million and packs a total of 3,100 hp, giving it a top speed of 140 mph on the water. Measuring more than 51 feet from pointy bow to chopped-off stern, the six-passenger 515 is being built

by Miami-based Cigarette Racing in conjunction with Mercedes-AMG. Not that there’s much AMG in the boat apart from funky graphics, lots of carbon fiber, silver paintwork, and ludicrous amounts of horsepower. Don’t expect Mercedes-AMG power under the “hood” either as the Cigarette uses two thundering 1,550-hp Mercury Racing V-8s. Cigarette and Mercedes-AMG have had a partnership for 11 years, though this 515 Project One is its most extreme offering to date. Crockett and Tubbs would have approved. (cigaretteracing.com) 62

Powered by a modified 1.6-liter turbo V-6 from Mercedes-AMG’s Formula One race car juicing four electric motors, this two-seat slingshot should deliver more than 1,000 hp. Production starts next year.

ASTON MARTIN AM37

Corresponding Car: Aston Martin DB11 Volante This is the long-awaited convertible version of Aston’s to-die-for DB11 coupe. Its tight-fitting, eight-layer canvas top can fold back in just 14 seconds for sun-on-your-face driving. With power from a 503-hp Mercedes-AMG–sourced twin-turbo V-8, the Volante is as fast as it looks. Prices from $214,820.

The name’s Bond. Captain Bond. Since that epic 1963 romp From Russia With Love when Sean Connery piloted a 28-foot Fairey Huntsman cruiser, 007 has had a love of boats. But never has a boat been better suited to giving him a license to thrill than the latest Aston Martin AM37 waterborne rocket ship. Designed by Aston in conjunction with Holland’s Mulder Design and built by Quintessence Yachts in Amsterdam, the 37-foot AM37 is pure eye candy.

Primarily a fast day boat with a small cabin for overnighters, the AM37 bristles with cool features. Like the wraparound windshield created from a single piece of glass. Or the three-piece carbon fiber deck that, at the touch of a button, slides up to cover the entire cockpit. Not to mention a bevy of divine Aston Martin design cues, like the steering wheel from a new DB11.

Power-wise, options include a duo of 370-hp Mercury diesels or thundering twin 520-hp Mercury Racing gas V-8s giving a 50-knot top speed. Pricing starts from around $1.64 million with the guarantee to leave you shaken and stirred. (quintessenceyachts.com) «

World Class Palm Beachers explore the planet from the comfort of their own apartment at sea

BY JUDY MARTEL When author Paul Theroux wrote, “Travel is at its most rewarding when it ceases to be about your reaching a destination and becomes indistinguishable from living your life,” he could have been referring to the owners who occupy the 165 condominiums aboard The World, a private residential yacht that continuously circumnavigates the globe.

Whether gliding through the remote Hebrides islands or docked along Italy’s Amalfi Coast, The World caters to sophisticated trekkers who believe travel is best when it comes with all the comforts of home.

Aside from the logistical ease of visiting a variety of destinations without the bother of packing and unpacking, owners praise the country club–style amenities, onboard community of adventurers, and the control (as owner-residents) over the ship’s itinerary.

Anne Schreiber, who maintains homes in Palm Beach and Manhattan, easily embraced the idea of at-sea living. She and her late husband first read about The World in The Wall Street Journal before it was launched in 2002.

They purchased a condo after they retired and moved aboard for nearly eight months a year. “My husband never wanted to get off; he loved it so much,” Schreiber says.

These days, Schreiber lives aboard for a couple months annually and schedules her

time based on The World’s ports. In April, she spent a week in Paris and Bordeaux with her son and then traveled to Marseilles to rejoin the ship. “I love the Mediterranean in the summer,” she says. “And then at the end of the summer we go to Great Britain and Dublin, and I don’t want to miss that.”

Schreiber doesn’t treat her time aboard so much as a vacation but rather as a way of life. She sometimes attends the shore excursions planned by The World but just as often follows her own schedule, soaking up the local culture at her own pace or planning side trips with friends. “In May, we were docked in Genoa [Italy] for two nights,” she explains. “I put together a group of four women and we went to Milan. Then in July, I have a wedding

in Bologna when the ship is in Valencia [Spain]. I’ll leave the ship, fly to Bologna, and meet it again in Lisbon.”

For retired attorney Peter Antonucci, taking in the ever-changing landscape while living in the lap of luxury is the only way to go. “You can’t get on a plane at Miami or JFK airport and say ‘take me there,’ and have the same travel experience,” he says. “It’s like you took the best luxury hotel [stay] you’ve ever had and the best restaurants you’ve been to and doubled the experience— that’s The World.” Aside from his residence in Palm Beach and a home in Connecticut, Antonucci has owned four condos aboard The

World, where units range in price from $1.5 to $15 million.

Antonucci learned about The World through his wife, who, like Schreiber, read an article in The Wall Street Journal and felt it would be a dream come true to live aboard. “To humor her, we visited the ship and the next day I was in the residence advisor’s office,” Antonucci says. Depending on the destinations, he’ll spend up to nine months aboard annually.

The ship’s board approves itineraries three years in advance, with input from residents, explains Antonucci, who is a board member.

Every occupant has a vote in the final schedule, which differs each year. In 2018, there are 114 ports of call.

Residents say the main characteristic that separates The World from other luxury cruise liners is that they own the vessel and have a say in how it’s run. Because of this proprietorship, the ship’s schedule is basically at their command, meaning they can plan extended stops in Rio de Janeiro during the annual Carnival celebration or England for the

Wimbledon tennis championship. “We look at what’s going on—the World Cup or the Olympics or art and music festivals—and if we can get there, great,” says Antonucci.

Destination experts and speakers frequently join the ship, allowing ample opportunity to whip up excitement ahead of a visit. For example, when The World traverses the arctic landscape of Norway’s Svalbard Archipelago, “we’ll hear from experts on polar bears because it’s one of the few places in the world where you can still see them in the wild,” says Antonucci. “There will also be an Audubon expert and someone who will talk about ancient Norwegian mariners, as well as experts on marine life, photography, polar meteorology, and all sorts of related fields.”

In 2017, The World introduced a lecture

series that brings four Nobel Laureates aboard each year to share their expertise and interact with residents.

In addition to talks on local culture and history, The World also hosts regional wine tastings and cooking classes, while its restaurants showcase native cuisines.

The education continues in port through one-of-a-kind experiences and access to local luminaries. In St. Petersburg, Russia, residents were offered a private tour of the Hermitage Museum on a day it’s normally closed to the public. “It’s the first time it was open on a Monday in 30 years,” Antonucci says. On a recent stop in New York City, several Broadway stars, including opera singer Renée Fleming,

came aboard to mingle and perform. While docked in Cape Town, South Africa, the mayor visited the ship for a breakfast discussion.

And then there are the fellow travelers, who hail from 19 countries. Although The World measures 644 feet long, the feeling aboard is intimate, says Schreiber. “If you asked me the single most important part of this lifestyle, it’s the community and staff. That’s the reason I stay. It would be hard for me to give it up because it’s become a very important part of my life. As long as I’m healthy and have the means [to] travel, I’ll keep doing it.” « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | JULY/AUGUST 2018

Rarely does a chef cross over into the world of baking—let alone excel at it. But such is the case with Michael Hackman, who mans the kitchen and the oven at Aioli, a neighborhood eatery known as much for its food as its friendly atmosphere. Following stints at such high-end local favorites as The Breakers and Café L’Europe, Hackman and his wife, Melanie, opened their sandwich, salad, and soup shop on South Dixie Highway in 2014. A desire to make everything from scratch piqued Hackman’s interest in bread, and he began developing Aioli’s recipes for authentic French baguettes, flaky buttermilk biscuits, and sourdough, a four-day process that yields his biggest hit. Today, Aioli has expanded to a second location in downtown West Palm Beach and supplies bread for 12 area restaurants, putting out a daily average of 300 loaves. Turn the page to learn more about Hackman’s passion for baking, community, and running a family-owned business. (561-366-7741, 561-444-3842, aioliwpb.com) —Liz Petoniak

[continued]

PBI: What sparked your passion for baking?

Hackman: It was more of a challenge. We had a great product already, but we weren’t making it from scratch, so I started looking into it, reading books, and asking other people questions. Once I found sourdough, I fell in love with the process. It blew my mind that you could take flour, water, and salt and make this beautiful bread, something that everybody enjoys, and that they’ve been enjoying for thousands of years. It’s about tradition and family, and it brings everybody together.

Did you do any formal training in baking?

I took a weeklong sourdough-making class in San Francisco. I also did three stages [internships] for experience and to learn how to write a baking schedule. The stages I did at Balthazar and Daniel Boulud’s in New York really expanded my mind to the possibilities of baking.

Besides sourdough, what’s your favorite thing to make?

We have a list of chef projects. I get together with the guys [the cooks], we pick something we want to make, and we accomplish it. We wanted to make our own sriracha and hot sauces, so now that’s under the belt, and we serve those here. We did jams. Next is sausage. We try to collectively grow together.

ON A ROLL

The “stir-fried” ice cream trend popularized in Thailand has hit West Palm Beach. Inside Grandview Public Market, people line up to watch cream transform into neat little rolls at Crema, a collaboration between Ozzie Gomez and brothers Alex and Felipe Celis. The selfproclaimed ice cream connoisseurs focus on organic, all-natural, and local ingredients, which includes sourcing the cream from a farm in St. Petersburg. “It’s the highest quality dairy you can get in Florida,” says Alex Celis.

Flavored with either vanilla or chocolate, the cream is poured on an ice plate set to negative 15 degrees Celsius. Half of the toppings are added in as the mixture 70

Hackman shares his tips for making sourdough at home at palmbeachillustrated.com/aioli

How do you approach preparing vegetables to be just as delicious as meat?

We get the freshest product that we can, and season and cook it properly to make it taste the best it can. I enjoy eating veggies. The idea that guys only eat meat and potatoes is evolving. One of the things I love doing is changing someone’s mind when they think they don’t like something, like a beet for example. They probably grew up eating canned beets. We give them a golden or a candy-striped beet that we roasted off, and they’re like, “What was that? That was really good.”

What’s it like having a family-run business?

I wouldn’t change it. Working with Melanie is great. We have three daughters, and here, I can leave, go pick up my kids, and when it’s not too busy, they bake with me in the kitchen.

How does it feel to know Aioli is regarded as a community gathering spot?

It’s really nice knowing everybody’s name and what they like. The community and the people are one of the best parts of what I do. I enjoy being here.

Favored combinations, such as Dulce de Leche with a caramel spread, condensed milk, and wafers, touch on the partners’ Latin heritage. Others highlight local vendors, like the Donkey Kong (pictured), which includes bananas, chocolate drizzle, and brownies made by Aioli.

NEW Classics

Neighborhood dining in West Palm Beach has taken on another dimension with the opening of Mazie’s, a collaboration between former Café Boulud general manager Jason Lakow and chef Eric Baker, who manned the stoves at Max’s Harvest in Delray Beach. Although the restaurant is named for Baker’s grandmother, the eclectic menu combines Eastern European dishes with influences from Asia and the Mediterranean basin.

“It’s what we call New World comfort food,” says Baker. “It’s our interpretation of Old World classics fused with some of the cultural strains in American cooking.”

Diners may begin with a curried crab dip with house-baked naan bread, or a smoked fish platter with miniature bagels, also baked on-site. East meets West in the Chop Suey Spaetzle, which blends egg noodles with stir-fried shrimp and soft-cooked egg. A Moroccan lamb knish, garnished with apricot yogurt and pine nuts, shifts the emphasis to North Africa.

In addition to dinner, Mazie’s offers a daily brunch that includes breakfast as well as salads and open-faced sandwiches. The wine list (designed by Sandra Lakow, Jason’s wife) is strong on artisan producers from Europe.

“We don’t think of ourselves as a special occasion restaurant,” says Baker, “although we certainly hope customers will celebrate birthdays and anniversaries here. When people want to grab a bite to eat or decide to go out on a whim, we want them to think of us.” (562-323-2573, mazieswpb.com) —Mark Spivak.

Combine the popularity of Prosecco with the current enthusiasm for lowalcohol cocktails, and you have the Aperol Spritz. Invented in 1950s Venice and based on the white wine spritzer, the drink added Aperol as a perfect mixer: half the alcohol of Campari and nowhere near as bitter.

“The Aperol Spritz has all the components of a great aperitivo,” says Ervin Machado, beverage director at Louie Bossi’s Ristorante. “Along with the links to Italian culture, the Prosecco adds a touch of sweetness that makes it easy to drink. The bitters are perfect for stimulating the appetite for the meal to come.”

Aficionados should visit on weekends, when spritzes are unlimited at brunch.

And for those not constrained by tradition, Louie Bossi’s even offers an Aperol slushy. Boca Raton (561-336-6699, louiebossi.com) —M.S.

CALIFORNIA DREAMING

How one woman came to define sparkling wine in the Golden State

BY MARK SPIVAK

D

Eileen Crane

AVIS MANDEL

eemed the doyenne of California sparkling wine, Eileen Crane has been Domaine Carneros’ winemaker since its inception in 1987. Now, more than 30 years later, Crane is still hitting her stride.

The era of Frenchinspired sparkling wine in California technically began in 1973 with the establishment of Domaine Chandon. However, it wasn’t until Domaine Carneros came along that the region welcomed an estate that truly resembled a French Champagne house.

The Taittinger family had many things going for them, and Crane was one of their foremost advantages. After attending the Culinary 76

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

Institute of America and studying enology and viticulture at the University of California in Davis, Crane took a job as a tour guide at Domaine Chandon in 1978, eventually working her way up to assistant winemaker. Gloria Ferrer hired her away in 1984 to supervise construction of its sparkling-wine facility in Sonoma. Three years later, the Taittingers selected Crane to build and supervise their operation at Domaine Carneros.

“They were looking for someone who understood the Taittinger style, which is more elegant and less oaked than other French Champagne houses,” explains Crane. “For the interview, they asked me to bring examples of wines I had made previously. Within the first 15 minutes of speaking with them, it was obviously a match. They never imposed an outside winemaker or blender on me. Claude Taittinger told me, ‘We are of Champagne, you are of Carneros.’”

It didn’t hurt that she had the Taittinger family’s resources behind her. The winery they built turned out to be a monumental, European-style château that would look right at home in Gironde.

AVIS MANDEL

Pour

Their fortune also allowed them to purchase a 138-acre vineyard that provided the last piece of the puzzle: the ability to make highquality California sparkling wine from estate-grown fruit. The bulk of the 60,000-case production consists of the vintage-dated Brut Cuvée ($30). Just as Taittinger in France has Comtes de Champagne as the apex of its portfolio, Domaine Carneros makes a tiny amount of its own luxury cuvée, Le Rêve, which translates to “the dream.”

The 2012 version of Le Rêve ($105) is a Blanc de Blancs consisting of 100-percent estate-grown Chardonnay. The nose is clean and fresh, with floral tones and notes of vanilla and almonds. In terms of taste, this wine is the gift that keeps on giving. It is vibrant and assertive on entry, with classic Chardonnay flavors of citrus, melon, and pear. In the mid-palate, the bright acidity takes those characteristics and magnifies them, leaving a lush core of green apple on the finish, with hints of lemon cream pie on the extreme length. In a word, Le Rêve is luscious.

For most consumers, Le Rêve Rosé doesn’t really exist; it’s only sold at the winery and to mailing list members, with availability limited to “a brief time each holiday season.” The

AVIS MANDEL

Nestled in the heart of Napa, Domaine Carneros resembles a French château and boasts exquisite sparkling wines, such as Le Rêve, that rival France’s best bottles.

2012 version ($135) has a very pale salmon color and a racy nose with faint aromas of red fruits. The wine is rich and full-bodied on the palate, with expansive flavors of wild strawberries and red currants resting on a firm mineral backbone. The fruit lingers, resolving into an essence of red berries that echoes on a succulent finish. Refined and memorable, this wine compares to some of the best rosé Champagne on the market. «

Agent Spotlight:

RUSS MORLEY Veteran Broadcasting & Radio Personality Answers the question, “Why Waterfront?”

Russ Morley spent nearly 30 years before joining Waterfront Properties & Club Communities as a well-known radio personality and broadcasting executive in the local market. With Waterfront for a little over a year, he’s a self-described “systems” guy. “Just like broadcasting, modern real estate is equal parts art and science,” he said. “There’s the art of the personal and professional relationships you form. There’s the science of the marketing systems that power the business.” Morley said Waterfront delivers on the science. “I have 650 active leads right now, generated by Waterfront’s lead system. Our websites, internet, strategic social media marketing, and lead generation systems flat out work.”

“Why should I choose Waterfront Properties?” That’s the question sellers, buyers, and even real estate agents rightfully ask. Morley says, “superb systems and support” best describe the extent to which Waterfront goes to provide its agents referral networks, state-ofthe-art technology and personal support to deliver over-the-top service to sellers and buyers.

The art of personal relationships is a craft Morley has honed throughout his professional life. “I’m interested in people. Understanding someone’s needs and what makes that person happy is a big part of any successful real estate transaction. I enjoy asking the questions that

get to those answers.” His skills as an on-air interviewer have been showcased in one-on-one interviews with George W. Bush, Robin Williams, Dr. Phil and Jay Leno, among other notables too numerous to name.

Morley appreciates Waterfront’s marketing machine of about 20 people and said, “I can’t tell you exactly what each person does, but the exposure they generate for sellers’ properties locally and internationally sells a lot of homes.” Waterfront’s award-winning websites provide Russ with hundreds of buyer leads, and Waterfront’s marketing team does all his marketing.

“I use the time I save not finding buyers or doing marketing to do the appropriate work to make seller’s sales and buyers’ purchases happy and successful ones. That process begins by me asking the right questions. The answers give me an understanding of what, exactly, sellers and buyers want to accomplish, and then I zero in on getting that done for them.”

Dr. Sarada Krishnamurthy’s experience purchasing a home with Morley says as much. “Russ rocks,” she began. “He’s like a member of our family. He’s genuinely good, sincere guy. He tells the truth, all of it. He made it very clear that until we achieve perfection, he’d keep working. Of all the people I’d turn to in Florida in a real time of need, Russ is at the top of the list. And, I mean that.”

very good people at Waterfront who love this South Florida lifestyle we get to live and sell.”

Referring to Waterfront Properties’ Owner Rob Thomson and his mother Joan Thomson, the company’s founder, Morley added, “The access to Rob and Joan is total.

If I need something, I pick up the phone, any time day or night.” Morley called Joan incredibly helpful. “More than once she’s shared a method or a perspective that’s helped me get to the finish line.”

Rob Thomson said, “That right there is why Russ is successful. From day one he bought into the system.

He took the time to learn how to work it. A year later, the systems are more than working for him and his sellers.”

A private pilot, free diver, fisherman and boater, Morley is at home among Waterfront’s agents, many of whom share the same passions. “The company culture has been a welcome surprise,” he said. “There are a lot of

BY LIZ PETONIAK

True Blue Though it may look far from natural, the sky-blue hue popping up in everything from juices to desserts owes its striking appearance to the ocean’s superfood: algae. Blue majik, derived from spirulina, is thought to be one of the most nutrient-dense foods, with its color originating from Cphycocyanin, a protein rich in amino acids and antioxidants.

Due to its slightly fishy taste, blue majik is best masked by other, stronger flavors like vanilla, peppermint, and tropical fruit, and bonded with a fat source such as coconut milk or yogurt. Alternatively, it can be embraced in savory dishes. Find it locally in the Cool Breeze smoothie bowl at Rock Steady Juice Joint (Jupiter, North Palm Beach, rocksteadyjuicejoint.com), in the Blue Moon smoothie at Raw Juce (various locations, rawjuce.com), and in the blue majik juice at The Seed (Boca Raton, theseedboca.com).

Can a frozen poolside treat be boozy and also boast health benefits? The answer is yes, according to Jules Aron, local wellness guru and author of Zen and Tonic: Savory and Fresh Cocktails for the Enlightened Drinker (Countryman Press, $24.95). With the philosophy that it’s okay to imbibe on occasion, Aron incorporates antioxidants to offset alcohol. In this tropical popsicle, sweet mango and rum balance the hint of heat from jalapeño and turmeric, which imparts its anti-inflammatory properties. (julesaron.com)

Balance Halotherapy lounge

WHAT IS THE FRACTIONATED CO2 LASER AND WHAT ARE ITS BENEFITS? This relatively new technology has several well-established benefits with shorter and more predictable downtime than other traditional treatments:

1. REDUCTION OF FINE LINES AND COARSE

WRINKLES OF THE FACE AND NECK. The CO2 laser uses a scanner that divides the beam into tiny shafts of light. Their heat causes the skin cells to reproduce more rapidly to heal the injury thus stimulating collagen, and eliminating the unwanted signs of aging. It can tighten the skin of the upper and lower eyelid and the skin around the lips and the cheeks, without any skin incisions.

2. FRACTIONATED CO2 COMBINED WITH OTHER

REJUVENATION PROCEDURES FOR THE FACE. The face and the neck can be safely treated in combination with other facial procedures such as facelift and neck lift, blepharoplasty , etc. This has the advantage of “combining” the healing time for a great balanced outcome.

3. FRACTIONATED CO2 COMBINED WITH PRP. Platelet-rich plasma is another powerful stimulant of collagen production in the skin. There is clinical evidence that PRP actually speeds the healing time of skin treated with laser.

RADIANT REFRESH

Chromotherapy sauna

With innovative treatments and oceanfront digs, the White Orchid Spa at the Kimpton Vero Beach Hotel has earned a reputation as Indian River County’s top relaxation destination.

And now that its extensive renovations are complete, this small but mighty spa is worth a revisit.

Upon entering the women’s locker room facilities, two additions stand out: a revamped sauna and a new halotherapy lounge. The sauna has been upgraded with chromotherapy lights, with each color of the rainbow believed to have its own health benefits, such as purple for easing chronic pain, red for increasing collagen production, and blue to correct acne and mood. Inside the halotherapy lounge, a wall of Himalayan sea salt pairs with a halogenerator, a machine that grinds salt to disperse its microscopic particles into the air and is postulated to alleviate asthma, allergies, and eczema, and to relieve anxiety.

In addition, the White Orchid Spa has rolled out new offerings, including a lavish 24 Carat & Caviar ritual that reduces wrinkles and revitalizes the skin with pure gold extract, caviar, silk proteins, and marine collagen, as well as new med spa services, like Coolsculpting and JuvaShape. We recommend the made-over Signature Ultimate Massage ritual, which begins with a purifying and exfoliating Dead Sea mud mask for the back, followed by a personalized massage with aromatherapy and hot stones. Next up, a warm oil massage nourishes the scalp and hair, and the session concludes with reflexology to impart a serene, refreshed feeling. (772-231-1133, Relaxation room whiteorchidspa.info)

Live Your Best Life...

Age is no bar for physical fitness. But if you don’t use it, you lose it.

Each decade after 30, an inactive person can lose 3 to 5 percent of their muscle mass due to the natural aging process, referred to as sarcopenia. Strength training as the body ages provides a safeguard against broken bones, osteoporosis, spinal stenosis, sciatica, and impaired mobility, explains Sean Garland, a certified personal trainer at Frenchman’s Reserve Country Club. Before beginning any fitness routine, consult a doctor and consider working with a trainer to learn proper form. Here, Garland shares four key moves to help the body perform at its best after 50.

RED, WHITE, AND WOW!

COURTESY OF THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH

On July 4, the United States of America will turn 242 years old.

On the same day, Fourth on Flagler, the City of West Palm Beach’s annual Independence Day extravaganza, will celebrate its big 3-0. That’s right: This free community event has been delighting South Floridians for 30 years—and it only gets better with age. This year, the festivities at the West Palm Beach Waterfront will kick off at 5 p.m. and include a Military Honor Ceremony, a performance from the Air National Guard Band of the South, tons of games, loads of live music, and a few surprises to mark this milestone. It all culminates in an 18-minute fireworks display over the Intracoastal. The average audience size at Fourth on Flagler ranges from 80,000 to 100,000—so the show needs to be spectacular. The city employs roughly 3,000 to 4,000 pounds of fireworks at a cost of $75,000.

Between the weight, price tag, and patriotic spirit, this jubilee is bound to be one for the history books.

On July 10, Mizner Park Amphitheater in Boca Raton will welcome a group that dominated radio airwaves in the early 2000s. This summer, 3 Doors Down has joined forces with fellow rockers Collective Soul and Soul Asylum for a tour across America, and Boca is one of their first stops. The Mississippi-bred band’s breakthrough album, The Better Life, dropped in February 2000 and became one of the best-selling records of the year, spawning such chart-toppers as “Kryptonite” and “Loser.” Their follow-up release, Away from the Sun, is best remembered for the fiery “When I’m Gone” and catchy power ballad “Here Without You.” They’ll perform these hits and many more as part of a hot set list that will span almost two decades and 20 million albums sold.

DOSE OF ART Unlike many institutions in South Florida, the Cultural Council of Palm Beach County does not go dark during the summer. In fact, its Lake Worth headquarters (located inside a historic Art Deco building) is currently hosting two compelling exhibitions. On display through July 28, “Places/Spaces: The Architectural Photography of Kim Sargent” is a showcase of one South Florida shutterbug’s captivating images of interiors from around the world. Over in the main gallery, visitors can view “Educators and Artists: An Exhibition of Artwork by the Faculty of the Alexander W. Dreyfoos School of the Arts” through August 18. Alex Dreyfoos founded the Cultural Council in 1978, and this collection comprises works by educators from his other local namesake—which also happens to be Florida’s premier arts high school. It’s presented in honor of the Cultural Council’s fortieth anniversary, as an homage to all Dreyfoos has contributed to the county’s cultural landscape. (561-471-2901, palmbeachculture.com)

Holly Miller Weston

NLEY CYNTHIA CO

Y PHOTOGRAPH

Credited with igniting Palm Beach’s obsession with hot yoga, Holly Miller Weston, owner of Haute Yoga and a Lululemon ambassador, has fostered a collective of yogis seeking personal enlightenment with a side of abs. In the past five years, her heated vinyasa studio has quickly grown to three locations: Jupiter, West Palm Beach, and on Palm Beach in The Royal Poinciana Plaza. When she’s not working on her handstand, the Palm Beach Gardens resident can be found singing karaoke, surfing, running marathons, spending time with her three young children, and lending a hand to community events. Each year, Weston chairs the Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County’s Barefoot on the Beach event, and she also serves on the board of the Town of Palm Beach United Way’s annual Turkey Trot race. —Liz Petoniak
