Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ guide to luxury lifestyle, trends, and premier properties is celebrating a milestone 10 years.
Much has changed across the real estate landscape over the last decade. Yet, as Prestige magazine celebrates this landmark anniversary, the concept of home as a treasured retreat continues to dominate purchasing decisions in the global luxury property market. Since its inception in 2014, both print and digital editions of Prestige have garnered a diverse, affluent audience. Published three times a year, the magazine celebrates luxury living with unique editorial content while showcasing unforgettable properties across the globe.
Global Luxury Reveal
“When I joined Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices in the winter of 2013, the brand’s Luxury Collection was just starting to build and I felt there would be value for our network agents and their clients in creating a global luxury lifestyle magazine that spoke to a broad audience featuring topics about people, places, and homes,” recalls Wendy Durand, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Senior Vice President of Global Marketing and Communications.
“As the first issue was unveiled, it was all fear and joy presenting a publication so bold and beautiful filled with exquisite properties, editorial content, and images that would take our readers on a global journey,” Durand confides. The team at Unique Homes Media, Inc. (Prestige’s custom publisher) collaborated closely with Durand to understand the intended targeted global reach.
“From our first issue, we knew we needed rich content to appeal to audiences from around the world. Our very first feature was on the World Cup in Brazil,” says Durand.
Before we could publish, we needed a name. What’s in a name is a key to the product’s success. “We brainstormed with the publisher of Unique Homes Media, Inc. on a name for the magazine. We wanted one that stood for respect and what we hoped would become a much-admired publication,” Durand says. Today Prestige is distributed in Delta Sky Clubs across 37 major U.S. airports and each issue currently has a print run of 50,000 copies.
The variety of rich editorial content consistently featured in Prestige has informed and transported readers around the world. “We decided every issue would have a feature on a different country,” Durand notes. Previous travel features have explored Dubai’s Rich History, AmazingIndia, and The Allure of Alaska, defining the best resorts, dining adventures, and off-the-beaten-path cultural activities.
The publication also does a deep dive into luxury market trends that buyers and sellers appreciate, with articles such as Homes With Iconic Views, Adventures At Your Front Door, and CountryLifeAtItsFinest. In the Luxe Life section of the magazine, readers can uncover recent luxury trends, including The New Breed Of Yacht Clubs, GarageDesignGetsRevved Up, and FlyAwayWithMe:TopDestinationsFor Private Jet Excursions
Indulge Your Senses
Prestige also brings readers beautiful photographic displays of must-have collectibles from watches to handbags as investment and fashion pieces. In-depth profiles of internationally recognized architects and interior designers take Prestige’s audience behind the scenes of impeccable homes and estates, while worldclass chefs and restaurateurs around the globe share their journey to five-star reviews.
As Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ network expanded to include premier global locations, such as India, the United Arab Emirates, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece, Canada, Mexico, Aruba, the Cayman Islands, the Bahamas, and the United Kingdom, the magazine did as well. Prestige’s new look was revealed in the Spring 2022 issue. “With its elevated appearance, the new Prestige will bring fresh perspectives and a knowledgeable voice to the trends and topics that matter most to our readers,” said Gino Blefari, Chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, in his welcome letter.
The business model for luxury lifestyle magazines has continued to evolve and now includes a stronger digital presence. It became clear that reaching a more diverse audience online was key to the publication’s ongoing success, and so was Prestige’s compelling content. “Laura Obagi [Vice President of Global Marketing and Communications] has elevated our editorial focus,” Durand observes. “She understands exactly what our audiences are excited to read. She executes that knowledge by leading our editorial team to create unique features and signature sections where people get lost in the stories and share them on social media.”
Partnering with Prestige
The company’s network of luxury agents who market their personal brand and exclusive properties in Prestige attest to the publication’s reach and impact. Michael Slevin, President of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Colorado Properties, was one of the first affiliates to advertise in the magazine. “We were thrilled at the opportunity Prestige created to reach many second homeowners outside of Colorado,” Slevin recalls. Ten years later, this component has become a most important piece in Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Colorado Properties’ overall marketing efforts. “All our brokers love Prestige’s elevated style and the targeted distribution network. It is a great listing tool, as homeowners choose us over our competitors because of the exposure their homes receive in Prestige,” Slevin adds.
Paul Grover, Co-founder and Principal Broker of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Robert Paul Properties based in Osterville, Massachusetts, is another loyal Prestige advertiser. “Over the years, Prestige has proven to be one of the best publications for us to have a presence in. The editorial quality is first-class, and the targeted distribution is unrivaled.”
Recently recognized as one of the top real estate professionals across the entire Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices network, Grover exclusively represents Cape Cod and the Boston area’s most prestigious homes and estates. “Every time we are featured in Prestige, clients reach out from across the country to let us know how much they enjoyed reading about our listings. This publication truly stands out in its ability to help us engage with a very discerning demographic,” Grover adds.

Expanding Prestige’s Digital Footprint
Due to the exceptionally strong distribution network from the start, Prestige quickly grew its audience. It is now digitally shared with the entire Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices network of more than 50,000 global real estate professionals. The digital edition is also featured on the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices website, drawing more than 16 million visitors in 2023. In addition, Prestige is inserted into both print and digital issues of UniqueHomes magazine, resulting in a 100,000-plus added readership.
Kathleen Carlin-Russell, Publisher/Editor-inChief at Unique Homes Media, Inc. dives into Prestige’s trajectory. “One thing that jumps out at me about the 10 years of Prestige is the growth in the size of the magazine. Between 2014-2024, while many other print publications were shrinking, or perhaps even going out of business, over that same period, Prestige more than doubled in size. Without any doubt, Prestige has been the fastest-growing publication in its category over the last 10 years.”
Digital publishing milestones have strongly contributed to Prestige’s success. “By expanding the Prestige brand digitally in a way that grows year after year, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ Global Marketing Team has taken what started as a print magazine and made it a program that is widely known across all media channels. Prestige now has an omni-channel focus that reaches millions. As affluent readers have moved to digital and social media to do their reading and get their news, Prestige has moved with its audience,” Carlin-Russell confirms.
As Prestige enters its second decade, there is no doubt that the publication will continue to evolve while remaining steadfast in delivering rich unique content to an affluent discerning audience.

NEW MEXICO: CULTURAL & CAPTIVATING
By Jessica GangaThe Land of Enchantment is known for its desert landscape, but this vast state offers much more than stretches of sand.
“It is a land of enchantment,where ancient cultures meetbreathtaking landscapes.”
Jim Pitts, CEOandQualifying Broker at Berkshire HathawayHomeServices
NewMexicoProperties
New Mexico is fast becoming a popular destination to not only explore, but to call home. And it’s no wonder, with a vast array of lifestyles on offer and a variety of attractions to enjoy year round—from the semiarid White Sands National Park and the deeply forested Carson National Forest to the snow-capped Rocky Mountains—New Mexico has it all.
Located along the famous Route 66 highway, Albuquerque is rich with Native American and Hispanic culture.
“Albuquerque, the largest city in New Mexico, offers a vibrant mix of customs, history, and outdoor adventures,” said Jim Pitts, CEO and Qualifying Broker at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New Mexico Properties.
Old Town, the city’s cultural center, is highlighted by its many museums, art galleries, and gardens. Framed by the picturesque Sandia Mountains, Pitts notes that Albuquerque is also an ideal place for those who enjoy the challenge of a hike—or seek stunning views. The city notably features “the world’s longest tramcar system,” says Pitts. “It runs from an altitude of 6,000 feet to the top of the Sandia Mountains, and spans 2.7 miles. Known for its hiking trails throughout the foothills, the east side of the mountains offers encounters with tall pine trees and magnificent views.” It also boasts the Sandia Ski Area and the Sandia Man Cave for more outdoor adventures.
Slightly northeast, the state’s capital, Santa Fe, is another award-winning destination. “It is one of the most unique and historical cities in the country,” says Pitts, “with earth-toned Spanish architecture nestled in the shadows of the Rocky Mountains and high desert living.” The city is a sight to behold.
A mix of modern and ancient cultures blend together amongst the bustling streets. This combination creates a vibrant lifestyle in a walkable city that’s filled with performing arts, plenty of shopping, and authentic culinary experiences that encapsulate the local dining scene, as well as relaxation opportunities.
“Albuquerque and Santa Fe are home to many unique wellness experiences, from soaking in natural springs at Ojo Santa Fe to indulging in locally inspired spa treatments,” says Nicole Barker, manager of New Mexico Tourism Department.
For adventurers or art seekers, the town of Taos offers a touch of it all. From zip lining to rafting down the Rio Grande Gorge, Pitts explains that Taos “is a community of great cultural and historical depth.” History and art enrich the city of Taos Pueblo, which has been inhabited for over 1,000 years, and was designated a World Heritage Site and a National Historic Site in 1992.
Las Cruces, located in southern New Mexico, is for the sunseekers—it averages over 300 days of sunshine per year, according to Pitts. “Southern New Mexico’s agricultural heritage is deeply rooted in its fertile valleys and sun-kissed plains.” This sun-drenched setting is ideal for sipping a glass of the finest wine at one of the many wineries or tasting the invigorating flavors of locally sourced ingredients at rooftop restaurants.
“The region’s warm climate and abundant sunshine provide the perfect conditions for cultivating a diverse array of crops, including the legendary Hatch green chile,” explains Pitts. “Known for its bold flavor and fiery kick, Hatch green chile is celebrated locally and sought after by food enthusiasts around the world, making it a symbol of Southern New Mexico’s culinary prowess.” Foodies will savor the local, spicy cuisine and fresh ingredients in this city.
As New Mexico’s second-largest city, Las Cruces is a lively and diverse mecca for arts and tradition, which is reflected in the city’s galleries, theater scene, and cultural centers.
Pitts accurately sums up this Southwestern stand-out destination, “It is a land of enchantment, where ancient cultures meet breathtaking landscapes. Whether you seek adventure, art, or relaxation, New Mexico invites you to discover its diverse and captivating soul.”

CHASING SIOUX FALLS
By Marlene RidgwayThe largest city in South Dakota features an abundance of majestic waterfalls—not only are they natural marvels, but they contribute to the calm, serene atmosphere that fosters a deep connection with nature among the locals. Yet despite its natural beauty, luxury living is not hard to come by in the city. Austin Nielsen, Broker/Owner, and Jacob Benedict, Broker/REALTOR®, both at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Midwest Realty, provide insights into the high-end side of Sioux Falls.
Dine
As a midwestern town, there are seemingly endless options for steak houses. According to Benedict, a favorite that stands out is Morrie’s Steakhouse. “Maribella Italian Restaurant and Brix Wine Bar offer an upscale European space with matching food and wine bar. The Treasury and Carpenter Bars boast seasonal cocktail lists with specialties in spaces that are moody, yet comfortable,” Benedict adds.
Stay
The Hotel on Phillips provides luxury accommodations as a boutique hotel in the perfect locale. “The location provides access to downtown culture and dining. It is also right along the river and guests have the ability
to walk to the Falls,” says Nielsen. Find another comfortable stay at the Sioux Falls ClubHouse Hotel & Suites, renowned for its elegant ambiance and careful attention to detail.
Play
South Dakota is a state well-equipped for outdoor adventure. Everything from rock climbing to skiing is available, but there are opportunities for more relaxed, peaceful days as well. “I would be remiss if I didn’t point out the craft cocktail bar scene in Sioux Falls,” adds Nielsen. “These hidden gems are worth noting not only for their menu offerings, but also the impeccable interior design and vibes.” Myrtle’s Fur Vault & Bar and The Wine Bar at Allure are popular choices.
Relax
In the luxury real estate market, desired amenities are also sought after in the local community. “Interestingly, pools seem to be a current trending amenity,” says Nielsen. For a soothing and rejuvenating day of relaxation, Sioux Falls boasts several locations that offer flotation therapy. At The Spa On Phillips and Radiance Day Spa, you can book a rejuvenating float for a sensory deprivation experience that’s designed for lasting relaxation.

GRAPES & GRANDEUR
By Roger GrodyIt’sactuallythefirst sculptureinthe world in which one lives and works, a uniqueprojectin which art and nature, sculptureandwine speaktogether.”
Wine-inspired tourism is sweeping the globe, and acclaimed architects have been deployed to create spectacular new wineries to meet demand.
Wineries are no longer rustic facilities solely engaged in the production of an agricultural product, but sophisticated hospitality venues competing for tourists. Around the world, contemporary architects are reimagining wineries and enthralling visitors without compromising the bucolic wine country ambiance.
Napa Valley is as much a playground for luxury travelers as a winegrowing region, meaning it is no surprise that the destination showcases architecture that rivals its celebrated wines. Juancarlos Fernandez, partner at Signum, a local firm acclaimed for its winery designs, recounts an early opportunity to introduce a contemporary aesthetic. Fernandez explains, “The client advised us, ‘We have a lot of barns in the Valley, so let’s do something different,’ and for the tasting room, they preferred something more like an intimate living room.”
Signum’s wine country projects are known for bold architectural statements, but their visual and environmental impacts on the idyllic countryside are tempered, with some structures literally woven into rolling vineyards. In Napa Valley, the integration of rust-colored steel posts salvaged from vineyards ingeniously connects the Progeny Winery hospitality center to the land. Not far away, a wine cave at Odette Estate Winery is sustainably ensconced beneath a hillside, but the entrance presents a graceful, elegant expression. Other dramatic wine properties designed by Signum include Artesa Vineyards & Winery in Napa and Aperture Cellars in Sonoma Valley. “We try to bring a uniqueness to our projects, and in some cases, our sketches have actually evolved into the winery’s logo and label,” says Fernandez, citing Odette as one example.
The Marqués de Riscal winery and hotel shatters the old-school image of Rioja, Spain’s ancient winegrowing region. Its curvaceous ribbons of titanium are instantly recognizable as the signature of architect Frank Gehry—à
la L.A.’s Disney Concert Hall or Bilbao’s Guggenheim Museum—but with dramatic splashes of wine country color. Acknowledging that New World winegrowing regions introduced the concept of oenotourism, Marqués de Riscal president Alejandro Aznar reports, “We had the idea to complement the beautiful wines we were producing with an iconic building…” Gehry said of the project, “I wanted to design something exciting and festive, because wine is pleasure.”
Several years before Gehry arrived, celebrity Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava was reimagining Rioja at Bodegas Ysios. With its wavy, soaring roofline, the structure could be mistaken for an avant-garde cathedral, but here the vines are worshiped.
In Italy, the Antinori family has been making wine for more than 600 years, but the Antinori nel Chianti Classico winery in Tuscany is a modern marvel promoting sustainability. Designed by Marco Casamonti, it is built into the earth, but the architecture—both above and below ground—features bold, contemporary aesthetics. Also in Tuscany, Petra Winery, courtesy of Swiss architect Mario Botta, is an unabashedly modern structure towering above surrounding vineyards with the drama of an ancient Roman monument, including a 141-step staircase ascending its circular edifice.
“A rational design that highlights the measure, beauty, and depth of the landscape,” is how Botta portrays his design. Jeanette Servidio, general manager of Petra, suggests worldclass architecture must not compromise the efficient operation of a winery. “Early planning is essential, so that great architecture and wine processing can coexist at their best,” she says. “Once all these aspects are clear, and the architecture adapts to the winery’s processing needs, the visit to the cellar can become a memorable experience,” adds Servidio.
For its Tenuta Castelbuono estate in Italy’s picturesque Umbria region, the Lunelli family commissioned sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro to create an otherworldly copper-clad dome, which appears unexpectedly on the horizon.
Alessandro Lunelli says of the structure, “It’s actually the first sculpture in the world in which one lives and works, a unique project in which art and nature, sculpture and wine speak together.”

MOLTEN MAGIC
By Roger GrodyContemporary glassblowers, creating incredible works of art through a fiery, primeval medium, are helping to reshape luxury residential interiors.
Glassblowing, an art form that literally emerges from flames, has produced exquisite tableware, lighting, and objets d’art for approximately 2,000 years. Today, contemporary artisans hardly deviate from ancient techniques, yet they are pushing the limits of invention and finding new admirers among interior designers and luxury homeowners along the way.
Los Angeles Glassblowing partners with architects, interior designers, and art advisors to bring stunning glass art into the home. Specialties of founder Jim Embrescia include enormous custom-designed chandeliers, as well as vibrant, backlit wall installations that provide a wow factor in luxury residences. “Outside of it becoming a career path, there’s a meditative side to glassblowing, almost like a daily tai chi practice,” says Embrescia, who has artfully manipulated molten glass for nearly 30 years.
Tullman reports that increased access to studio space and television exposure (notably the Netflix series BlownAway) are fostering greater interest in the medium. Among the unique glass artworks that he has created are massive wall-mounted sharks, octopi, and stingrays in electrifying colors. Reporting increased demand for glass installations in luxury residences, the artist states, “I love to create beautiful glass objects that bring spaces to life.” Tullman is currently working on an installation at Chicago’s Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum, comprised of 200 glass butterflies suspended from the ceiling.
Largeglasspieces havethepotential toaddasuperuniqueaspecttoany residentialspace.”
Asher Holman, Small Batch Glass
“Some clients insist on something awesome, but don’t know exactly what they want,” says Embrescia, reporting others are inspired by the work of celebrity glass artist, Dale Chihuly. “I act as their muse, and together we come up with a completely original concept that we can bring to life,” he explains. While many clients, particularly fans of Chihuly’s work, instinctively gravitate to bold colors, Embrescia suggests that some of the most refined, sophisticated pieces can be achieved with clear glass.
Chicago has a community known for its rich history in glassblowing, for both decorative and industrial products. The city’s Ignite Glass Studios provides a space for artisans to create and share their work, from students to museum-exhibited artists. Co-founder and creative director Ben Tullman says of his introduction to glassblowing, “When I first held 2,000-degree molten glass in my hands as a teenager, it was a magical feeling.” He adds, “Glass is a seductive and mysterious material, simultaneously strong and fragile, solid and transparent.”
Asheville, North Carolina, is famous for its creative spirit, and among its many artisans is glassblower Asher Holman, who was first introduced to the medium at age 16, and has been glassblowing professionally for seven years. His Small Batch Glass generates a wide range of products for the home, from stunning pendant lighting to unique topographic rock wall installations that infuse a space with color and whimsy. “Glass is a really amazing material and it’s mesmerizing to watch people work with it over an intense fire,” says the owner/artist, whose own studio in Asheville is open to the public.
“Large glass pieces have the potential to add a super-unique aspect to any residential space,” says Holman of his large-scale installations, which resonate among owners of modern luxury homes. The artist reports that his rock wall creations are particularly valued by homeowners seeking a dramatic effect, but something more distinctive than the plates or flowers offered by other studios. Describing his ethereal bubble sculptures as a marriage of art and science, he explains, “I harness the transformative power of heat to assemble them, giving the illusion that they’re suspended in the air, defying gravity.” Currently, Holman is developing a new line of lighting inspired by mineral crystals, featuring a color palette consistent with the crystalline formations found in nature.
As glassblowers push the boundaries of imagination, there is no limit to artistic expression through glass in residential environments—far beyond windows and lighting.

RECONNECT WITH A DIGITAL DETOX
By Ellen ParisOur devices take us awayfromconnecting withpeople resultinginmissed opportunitieswhile the brain needs time to rest and reset.”
- Dr. Renee Solomon, BeverlyHills-basedclinical psychologistandCEOof ForwardRecovery
In 2023, the average screen time for users around the world aged 16-64 across different platforms rang in at 6 hours and 37 minutes per day, according to Data Reportal.
It’s no surprise then that a luxury travel trend that’s gaining popularity is the disconnecting from digital devices at highend destinations with luxury amenities and outdoor activities. “To do this successfully you must be dedicated because social media and our phones are truly addicting and allencompassing,” says Dr. Renee Solomon, Beverly Hills-based clinical psychologist and CEO of Forward Recovery. “Our devices take us away from connecting with people resulting in missed opportunities while the brain needs time to rest and reset.”
California: Quiet Mind Retreat
The tranquil Quiet Mind Retreat is a rejuvenating wellness and spa getaway located about an hour from San Diego overlooking serene Lake Cuyamaca. Fifteen lavish suites invite you to stop and reset.
Spa and wellness director Lorien Lehmer takes you inside Quiet Mind. “We create all types of experiences for our guests, including digital detox retreats.” These feature yoga and meditation sessions, nature awareness walks, massages, and spa treatments created for a restorative experience. “If guests request, we will hold their devices for them during their stay,” Lehmer assures those who want to avoid digital temptations. The Quiet Mind Retreat is another way to detach and rest your mind without distraction, but still enjoy the luxuries of a high-end wellness resort and spa.
Mexico: Riviera Maya & Riviera Nayarit
Several coastal resorts in Mexico’s Riviera Maya and Riviera Nayarit offer unplugged luxury. The Digital Detox programs at Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit and Grand Velas Riviera Maya launched in 2019. At Grand Velas Riviera Nayarit, a dedicated detox concierge plays a crucial role in personally connecting with the resort’s guests to help them disconnect from their devices. “Upon guests’ arrival, this specialized concierge ensures a truly immersive detox by transforming their suite,” explains Juan Ruiz, Vice President of Velas Resorts. “The concierge removes the flatscreen television and replaces it with classic board games, setting the stage for a screenfree stay. Guests’ electronic devices, including phones, laptops, iPads, and PSPs, are then securely stored away, allowing guests to fully disconnect and unwind in a tech-free environment.”
At Grand Velas Riviera Maya, guests can participate in a similar program by trading in their phones for complimentary activities. Upon check-in, guests receive a bracelet in exchange for their electronics, which grants them access to activities such as bike tours, an eco-tour of the property’s flora and fauna, a snorkeling tour, or the Water Journey at SE Spa. To retrieve their electronics, guests must earn a total of four activity bracelets (one for each day) by participating in these activities. “At both resorts, the Digital Detox program aims to create a sanctuary where guests can disconnect from screens and reconnect with each other and nature,” Ruiz said.
Yellowstone: Nine Quarter Circle Ranch
Just 14 miles from Big Sky, Montana, this familyowned dude ranch has welcomed guests for over a century. “Since we are located out of cell service range it’s easy to unplug at Nine Quarter,” explains Sally Kelsey, whose husband’s family has owned the ranch for three generations. “The culture of the ranch environment is that guests simply don’t want to be on their phones,” Kelsey adds.
Here you’ll ride on serene trails and fly fish in crystal-clear waters. A children’s program features horseback riding, hayrides, and square dancing. Nine Quarter’s log cabins boast wood stoves or fireplaces, and do not have televisions or phones.
The area’s natural beauty is what draws visitors. “The wonderful thing about Big Sky, Montana, is that you can very quickly escape the chaos. While hiking, biking, or fly fishing, there’s a point where you see no signs of civilization and can experience calming silence. It’s a fantastic way to truly find your serenity,” observes Ann Snortland, Broker at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Montana Properties.
Yosemite: Digital Detox Treks
White Wolf Tours offers its Yosemite Digital Detox Tours seasonally. Leaving from San Francisco via private transportation, these four-day, three-night tours highlight “Yosemite Without Signal.” Each Digital Detox Trek takes hikers into Yosemite’s backcountry. White Wolf’s experienced private guides escort people where there’s no cell service. “Our guests experience the tour the right way. Since we tell them, ‘Let’s not use our phones for a couple of days,’ they soon realize that maybe their email isn’t as important as they thought,” confides Dylan Gallagher of White Wolf Tours.
Trekkers will see El Capitan, Half Dome, and Bridalveil all without digital distractions. However, guides do carry an emergency beacon on these tech-free journeys. “People come to realize what’s important in life, and it’s not on their phones,” Gallagher notes.
The Maldives: Velaa Private Island
For the ultimate getaway, the private island Velaa proposes an ultra-luxury opportunity to unplug. Velaa is for those seeking a digital detox with the best in wellness and spa offerings. The Wellbeing Village’s holistic Eveylaa Wellbeing facility with healing rituals helps ease your digital detox against a stunning natural backdrop of crystal-clear waters.

LONDON LUXURY
By Marlene RidgwayStay
London is truly a city suited for royalty. This bustling metropolis is brimming with the finest dining options, luxurious hotels and spas, and plenty of high-end entertainment for visitors and permanent residents alike. With so much to do, the 32 boroughs and vibrant streets that make up Greater London can be overwhelming at a glance. Thankfully, Martin Bikhit, Owner and Managing Director of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices London has offered a few choice recommendations to guide the way.
Dine
The London dining scene goes above and beyond traditional high tea and fish and chips. According to Bikhit, the must-try destinations include Scott’s for seafood and China Tang at The Dorchester for Peking duck rolls.
“With three Michelin stars, Hélène Darroze at The Connaught—Carlos Place has a tasting menu to die for,” he says, adding that he also frequents Kyubi at The Arts Club. “It’s the best Japanese in London, in my opinion, and the only place in Europe with saké on tap. It’s run by Zuma’s ex-head chef, Soon Li Ong, and I eat there as often as I can.”
Whether you’re planning a short stay or a lengthy repose, Bikhit recommends The Peninsula Hotel, for its “fantastic themed restaurant and bar on the top floor with panoramic views.” A more historic option would be The OWO, “the former war office of the British government that recently opened as a hotel, spa, and luxury residences by Raffles Hotels.”
Play
Beyond the many sights and historical landmarks, there are endless options for entertainment in London. According to Bikhit, the Royal Albert Hall and Royal Opera House are ideal for concerts. A top choice for shopping is around Sloane and Bond streets, while excellent art can be found at Halcyon Gallery, with exhibits ranging from Andy Warhol to David Hockney.
Relax
To unwind after a day of sightseeing or if you’re simply craving a rejuvenating treatment, Bikhit suggests one of these highly recommended luxury spas. The Lanesborough Club & Spa was named “Best Spa in London” at the Good Spa Awards 2023, and The Spa at Mandarin Oriental in London boasts vitality pools and bespoke wellness treatments that shouldn’t be missed.
