A handpicked selection of standout hotels across Florida, Hong Kong and Singapore
The Hari Hong Kong
Art, design and warm hospitality define this contemporary hotel between Hong Kong’s vibrant Wan Chai and Causeway Bay
Positioned between the commercial energy of Causeway Bay and the creative character of Wan Chai, The Hari Hong Kong offers a stylish base from which to experience one of the city’s most dynamic neighbourhoods.
The sister property to The Hari London, the hotel was created by Dr Aron Harilela, whose family has played a longstanding role in Hong Kong’s hotel industry. Designed by British interior designer Tara Bernerd, the elegant 30-storey property features 210 guest rooms, including three rooftop suites with views across Wan Chai, Causeway Bay, Victoria Harbour and The Peak.
Dining is a key part of the experience, from authentic Italian dishes at Lucciola to contemporary Japanese cuisine at Zoku, where an origami-inspired timber ceiling creates a striking setting. Guests can also unwind at The Terrace, the hotel’s outdoor bar, or relax in The Lounge, an inviting space filled with books and carefully selected artwork throughout the day.
Beyond its stylish interiors, the hotel has established strong links with the local creative community through initiatives such as The Hari Art Prize, cultural talks under The Hari Chronicles and neighbourhood experiences that introduce visitors to lesser-known corners of Wan Chai. Blending thoughtful design with a genuine sense of place, The Hari Hong Kong offers a rewarding stay for travellers seeking more than the usual city break.

Stay Ombi
A boat-only retreat near Key Largo offering a rare floating bungalow stay surrounded by the natural beauty of the Florida Keys
Accessible only by boat, Stay Ombi features just three floating bungalows resting on the calm waters of Tarpon Basin, creating a peaceful setting that feels wonderfully removed from everyday life while remaining close to the mainland.
Unlike traditional overwater accommodation built on stilts, each bungalow floats, giving guests a different perspective of the surrounding seascape. Floor-to-ceiling views and outdoor spaces encourage time spent watching the changing light across the water, while direct access to snorkelling, kayaking and paddle boarding makes it easy to enjoy the natural surroundings.
As a micro luxury hotel, Stay Ombi provides a highly personalised service, with the concierge team tailoring every stay, whether arranging a proposal, celebrating a special occasion or adding thoughtful touches throughout a visit. Wildlife is never far away, with dolphins and manatees regularly spotted swimming beneath or alongside the bungalows.
After sunset, the secluded location, away from bright city lights, creates excellent conditions for stargazing, rounding off days spent immersed in the beauty of the Florida Keys. It is an unforgettable retreat for couples, nature lovers and anyone seeking tranquillity alike.
