Foto Friday: Sky High in Toronto

Look at that view: Who would’ve guessed that a Canadian city-scape could rival one of our own stellar NYC lookouts? [Ed. note: Sorry, we’re biased.] At the Thompson Toronto, the rooftop bar offers gorgeous views and is furnished with sexy, striped loungers. Plus, the walls of glass surrounding the area lend an open, airy feel…

Foto Friday: Cocktailin’ in the Caribbean

It’s the first official summer Friday, and while temperatures outside are soaring above the 90s, here at Oyster HQ we’re using the power of our imaginations (and our Oyster Shots!) to transport ourselves to some cooler beach-side glamour. In particular, the exclusive La Samanna resort on the French side of St. Maarten has captured our…

Foto Friday: A Spa Sanctuary

We’ve been doing a lot of kickin’ back lately, which we especially enjoy in the remote hills of the Blancaneaux Lodge in Belize. It may be a secluded spot, but that’s why the resort has tons of on-site offerings, including horse tours, natural swimming holes, and creekside spa service. The rustic sanctuary already has everything…

Foto Friday: Peaceful in the Park

Hiking through the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California is one of our favorite summer jaunts. We love staying at the Evergreen Lodge at Yosemite National Park, where we hit the trails ready to take in the fresh mountain air and see the abundant wildlife. Though the lodge boasts amazing views from every angle, the scene…

Foto Friday: Sleeping In and Sleeping Out

June 1st kicks off the unofficial start of summer, and we’re officially ready for three months of sun, fun, and lots of leisure. Disney’s Hilton Head Island Resort, a decidedly less Disney-y resort than those in Orlando, makes for the perfect summer escape with private hammocks surrounded by the vast regional wildlife. Nothing against Mickey…

Foto Friday: Chilling Out in Chile

With views like this from the rooms, who needs to leave the hotel? We were lucky enough to visit one of the Cosmopolitan Suites at Noi Vitacura in Santiago, where we got to cozy up in this outdoor Jacuzzi overlooking the Andes Mountains. We loved the view so much, we headed to the hotel’s rooftop…

Foto Friday: Sailing into Summer

Summer is creeping up on us and we can’t wait to head out to The Hamptons to celebrate. The Long Island vacation spot is synonymous with East Coast luxury, with everything from 50-foot yachts to high-end soirees. One of our favorite places to stay is the laid-back Montauk Yacht Club Resort — just thinking about…

Foto Friday: Cabo, Baby!

When we’re in Los Cabos, we can’t help but get a little giddy. With its beautiful beaches, tequila-soaked nightlife, and plentiful historic sights, there is always something to smile about. We get especially excited when we’re staying at the four-pearl The Westin Resort and Spa, where stunning views of the ocean and mountains are perfectly…

Foto Friday: A View To Dine For

The only thing better than Italian food is Italy itself. And the views from Terrazza Brunelleschi Restaurant at the Grand Hotel Baglioni in Florence are just as savory as its menu options. Between the fine dining and striking views of Florence, this upscale hotel restaurant is just another one of the city’s many works of…

Foto Friday: Bridging the Gap

Maybe it’s all of the election buzz that’s making us think of our nation’s capital. Maybe its the cherry blossoms we wish we could have seen. Regardless, we can’t stop thinking about Washington D.C. The Francis Scott Key Bridge stretches across the idyllic Potomac River — and has since 1923, making it the oldest-standing bridge…
