If you find yourself looking at your water bottle and longing for the sea, it might be time to ditch the city. Set your sights on Forty 1° North — Newport, Rhode Island’s ultimate waterside getaway.
Just an hour-and-a-half drive from Boston, the state-of-the-art marina and hotel fuses timeless elegance and modern convenience. Impeccable design (rich wood, polished stone, soothing color palette) is met with eco-friendly nods like LED and CFL lighting and recycled building materials. And then there are the views: From the hotel’s expansive windows and balconies, you’ll get a front-row seat to the breathtaking sunsets over Newport Harbor.
So throw your BlackBerry to the wind, and spend two luxury-filled nights in a plush water-view guest room. As part of your stay, you and a guest will enjoy locally made Destination chocolates and Veuve Clicquot champagne, and feast on a three-course dinner at The Grill. Upgrade to a premium water-view guest room and you’ll also get breakfast in bed. All that should fuel you for a
day of local sightseeing (The Breakers mansion, Historic Hill, and several museums are nearby).
Or just kick back and ponder the sea.
