The Woodlark Hotel In Portland, Oregon

Posted on

When you think of the words “boutique hotel” what comes to mind? Is it the charming atmosphere, the friendly staff, or the unique interiors? The Woodlark Hotel has all of the above and more. Every boutique hotel has its quirks, and my favorite characteristics of the Woodlark are the adorable cafe in the lobby, the leaf and plant wall paper, and the modern bathrooms – complete with gold hardware.

I had such an amazing stay at the Woodlark Hotel! This boutique hotel is nestled in the heart of Portland, OR. The location is unbeatable – I was able to go to my favorite restaurants and shops all within walking distance.  The decor is modern and lush. I love how the hotel incorporates plants and flowers into its atmosphere. The Woodlark is such a relaxing and calming escape from a day roaming the city – just what any hotel should be!

A Very Boston Christmas: Kimpton Nine Zero Hotel

Although it may be cold, Boston during the Christmas season is one of the best times of year to visit. During my trip to my hometown I stayed at the Nine Zero Kimpton Hotel, which overlooks the Boston Common. The view of the Prudential Center and John Hancock tower overlooking the Christmas lights in the Common is beautiful. You can even see the Charles River and Cambridge in the distance! Seeing Boston all lit up with Christmas lights really brought some holiday cheer into my life!

This is hotel nestled in the BEST and busiest location in Boston. The boutique hotel has an old-timey charm, just like the city of Boston itself. One of my favorite things about this hotel is the eclectic artwork. The French Bulldog painting that was in my room reminded me of my college mascot, Rhett the Boston Terrier of Boston University. The interior design of this boutique hotel is very charming, and the attention is in the details such as textures and colors.

Salishan Resort Spa & Golf: Oregon Coast Vacation

Posted on

The Salishan Resort is the vacation everyone needs in their life. Relax by the Oregon coast and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. This iconic resort is known for its gorgeous spa, 18-hole golf course, and relaxing beach views.

The Salishan Resort is located in Gleneden Beach, OR. The resort itself is massive, and tucked away in the woods right by the ocean. The ambiance of the Salishan Resort and hotel is rustic chic. I loved the upscale aspect of the resort, while still maintaining that “summer camp” feel. The resort offers morning yoga, guided art walks, nature tours and more. There is something to do for everyone, and the environment was extremely family-friendly.

The best part about the Oregon coast is how close the forest gets to the ocean. The Salishan is tucked away in the woods with ocean views and oceanside golfing. The spa has a wonderful view of the bay. The scenery is relaxing and peaceful, and the resort goes above and beyond to make your stay a rejuvenating experience.
