Greenville, South Carolina
Once a
sleepy second fiddle to Southern culinary powerhouses like Charleston
and Nashville, Greenville is stepping into the limelight with hot new
restaurants. The town will soon be home to an outpost of Sean Brock's
heirloom-crop-focused
Husk and a food-centric market hall called the Commons. Other recent additions include modern Italian spot
Jianna from Michael Kramer (the opening executive chef of McCrady's in Charleston, pre-Brock) and the moody speakeasy lounge
Vault & Vator. It's an impressive collection of quality restaurants for a city of just over 67,000.
Those with a predilection for high-thread-count
sheets will soon be able to luxuriate at the Grand Bohemian Hotel, a
ritzy boutique property with Carolina charm. In the meantime, discerning
visitors can bunk at the swank
Westin Poinsett,
a historic hotel that was rescued from the wrecking ball in the late
'90s, laying the groundwork for Greenville’s great Southern revival.

Šolta, Croatia
The
jewel of the Adriatic Sea, Croatia is home to more than 1,200 islands,
but travel between them has long been dictated by expensive yacht
charters and sluggish public ferries. In 2018, that’s set to change, now
that UberBOAT, from the popular ride-sharing app, has launched
on-demand transfers and private tours along the
Dalmatian Coast.
Hit the high seas in the direction of Šolta, a hilly isle a mere nine
nautical miles from Split (the second-largest city in Croatia).
Often overlooked in favor of more-developed,
splashier neighbors like Hvar or Brač, Šolta’s under-the-radar nature
has proved a boon: The stony islet has become synonymous with pristine
nature (pebbly beaches, turquoise waters, lush greenery), medieval
villages, winemaking (try the indigenous Dobričić variety), and
family-run olive oil purveyors like Olynthia, a fourth-generation
producer. After watching the sun set at Maslinica bay, check out the
island’s peppering of stylish beach clubs, seaside bars, and open-air
restaurants — then drop your bags at the
Heritage Hotel Martinis-Marchi,
built inside an 18th-century Venetian fort-castle and ideally situated
for those who want to explore Šolta’s ancient villages and crystal-clear
bays.
