Jamaica has landed in SoHo, at least for the next few days. The Jamaica Tourist Board has extended Summer vibes for just a few days with their “Feel the Vibe” Pop-Up Shop. The Jamaica Tourist Board’s first-ever interactive pop-up is located at 393 Broadway in New York City.
The US Open kicks off on Monday in New York City at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, but before it all takes place, we kicked off the highly anticipated sporting event at Citi Taste of Tennis. Taste of Tennis is a one of a kind experience. Partygoers and sports enthusiasts are given the pleasure of mingling with a slew of Tennis stars and celebrities while enjoying delicious sample sized eats from New York City’s most prestigious restaurants and specialty cocktails, beer, and wine. Citi Taste of Tennis took place at the W New York hotel. Notables at the event included Venus Williams, Sam Querey, Nick Kyrgios, Alexander Zverev Jr, Feliciano Lopez, Masaharu Morimoto, Jonathan Waxman, and Karen Khachanov, to name a few.
I love New York but every now and then I need to get away from the city and enjoy a little slice of paradise. With any luck, I’ll get to visit Palace Resorts in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. About a week ago we attended the launch party for the spectacular resort via a cocktail reception at Arena just off of time square. The event introduced media, and industry insiders to the fabulous new vacation spot. Guests enjoyed complimentary cocktails and passing appetizers while hearing about the grande project from the key players behind the scenes. Moon Palace Jamaica Grande is the first property owned by Palace resorts on the island. When thinking of places for their next project Jamaica stood out as the go-to destination. Its culture, history and natural beauty stood out to investors as the perfect place for a new resort.
