Whenever national magazines highlight the best places to live, eat, work and play, almost inevitably Portland makes the Top 10. This small city (population: 65,000) earns kudos for its nationally renowned restaurants (it was named the Foodiest Small Town in America by Bon Appetit) and lively arts scene. Plus, the historic Victorian architecture, trendy shops [...]

We’re all about your standard version of unspoiled paradise: you know, a thatch-roof bungalow in the Maldives. But look what we’ve got on sale this week on Jetsetter in British Columbia: A paradise of an entirely different stripe (but equal magnitude). Comparing Clayoquot Wilderness Resort to a rural campsite is like describing the Taj Mahal as [...]

In some ways, Europe seems made for bicycle travel — from rolling hills with pastoral views to the switchbacks and inclines of the Alps, the region is crawling with opportunities for cyclists, whether rookies or experts. After a life-changing trip to Italy, avid bicyclist Lauren Hefferon decided back in 1989 to start a company specializing [...]

This weekend, Jetsetter’s presenting our first sale with Costa d’Este, the Vero Beach hotel by Gloria and Emilio Estefan. We talked with Gloria about the hotel business: what inspires her, where she and her family like to travel and who she’s collaborating with on her new music.

We’ve got Derby fever this week at Jetsetter, and not just because we’re offering packages for the 136th Run to the Roses. For us, part of the fun behind any vacation is dressing the part, and in this case, “the part” involves audacious and downright over-the-top head gear. Derby hats are as much a part of [...]

We’re wrapping up the week with five links worth a click. Happy weekend travels, Jetsetters! Late-season skiing is in full swing — especially with the monster storm that hit California earlier this week, dumping more inches of the beautiful white stuff. Squaw Creek was lucky enough to share in the “March Miracle,” and we’ve got [...]

Who can deny that wonderful high of walking down a new street in an old city, finding a hidden restaurant nook or the perfect, tiny boutique store? We at Jetsetter know and love cities like New York, Miami and Denver — but it’s excitement we feel when these familiar cities surprise and delight us with [...]

There’s a special kind of excitement that can only come from a city on the cusp of transformation or that’s just crossed over. For a moment in time, the allure of the unexplored draws us in more powerfully than ever — and for these three cities, that moment is now. Here, a look at the [...]

We look to celebrities for what to wear, where to party, how to style our hair … And sometimes, the hotels they frequent are splashed all over the front page. But often, intel on where they go on vacation is kept tightly under wraps. We’ve scoured the globe for a sampling of celeb-favorite trips — [...]

It’s not every day a somewhat mundane task turns into a wildlife encounter. When correspondent Sarah Yearsley was in Botswana’s Okavango Delta recently, she was painting her toenails, minding her own business, and was surprised by an elephant that had come right up to her cabin to take a peek inside. Maybe the elephant wanted [...]
