Ice Skating at Gurneys

Winter, spring, summer, fall, Newport is a great place to visit and to live.  A great way to spend a winter afternoon and capture moments with family and friends is ice skating and hot toddy’s hosted by Gurney’s Resort in Newport.

Grab a hot cider, cozy up to one of the many fire pits and take in the afternoon sun with epic views of Narragansett Bay, two lighthouses and the Newport bridge.  When you are ready to warm up you can retire to one of several heated “igloos” for a blanket wrapped bite or head inside to the whisky bar and sample one of the best selections in town.

Join us in all the lifestyle activities here in Newport through the  NL&L Courier

The Vanderbilt Experience

We got the GRANDE tour at The Vanderbilt, Auberge Resorts Collection. It has an entirely new feel. Elegant and dapper with floor to ceiling navy blue in sportsman style. The former mansion built by Alfred Vanderbilt is filled with new and vintage furnishings, custom hand-drawn wallpaper with a modern pop.The property also debuted a new gastronomy and mixology program: a fully reconceptualized signature restaurant, The Dining Room, alongside new menus and eye-catching designs at the resort’s three additional dining destinations; The Conservatory, The Garden, The Roof Deck with views of downtown and the bay.The renovations by SWOON are a must see. It is quickly becoming a vibrant social hub for Newport and is walking distance to downtown.

Nativity Themed Holiday Party

Who doesn’t love a good themed festivity. Lively in spirit guests were encouraged to dress in character with scenes from the the manger nativity scene. With good humor, characters showed as the Three Wise Men, North Star, Shepherds, Angels, Elves, Lambs and more. The party was catered by McGraths Clambake and the host served a delicious holiday tequila coconut margarita with sprigs of cranberry. Cheers to the new year! ✨

Cosmic Dinner and Cocktails

All things cosmic three card tarot & spirit animal reading presented by Bridgette Soby & Christon A. Gibson  What a cosmic transforming evening with Patti McGarrahan and Larry Lastra of The Mindz Eye ! Wow! Hands down impressive. The evening was limited to 20 people and every single person was offered 2 readings during dinner, one three card tarot and then an animal reading.  The Clarke Cook House hosted us in the private 12 Meter Room on the top floor. The powers that be supplied a personalized menu and bespoke cosmic cosmo cocktail with pearlized swirls and star straws. The very talented and professional event photographer Qui Lawhon of The Cocoa & Co captured the evening in all of its intense splendor. We were talking about our readings for days if not months.
