http://globalgail.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Jul 28, 2010. I was assured by the Bermudian taxi driver that "my Mayor" slips unobtrusively into Bermuda at unexpected times throughout the year to stay in his exquisite and very private waterfront home in Tucker's Town. How he knows that is uncertain. As dreams go, this progressed nicely. So much so that he shared with me that he was supposed to meet with his lawyer that very day to write his will and decided NOT to leave his money to his family&...

Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Nov 25, 2008. Escapism Never Felt this Good.Sanctuary Cap Cana, Dominican Republic. Mercifully, this past week I escaped both the battering winds of an untimely November plunge in temperature and the equally plummeting economic freefall. Things were looking up- how could they not? My visit was brief, but I did manage to carve out some quality time at lunch at the Blue Marlin restaurant. It is truly one of the most natural and beautiful settings in ...

Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Aug 26, 2008. If all this sounds too good to be true, or even a bit saccharine, it truly isn't. A few days on Shelter Island was the perfect antidote to "circuit overload" as I call it, caused by watching CNN, and my daily morning reading of both the. We stayed at the Chequit Inn, which is a pleasant enough place with lovely gardens and good food served on the porch in the evening. We walked everywhere and read books. We talked, and found ourse...I hig...

Gail Flannigan Associates: Electrified by Energy Glass
http://globalgail.blogspot.com/2011/10/electrified-by-energy-glass.html
Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Oct 17, 2011. Electrified by Energy Glass. How is it that a simple idea can be so elusive? Then, suddenly, WHAM! There it is, the obvious solution! Energy from the sun- NOT solar- from totally transparent. It is the patented creation held by one company- here in the United States- by a visionary inventor who is now partnered with a brilliant and incredibly nice guy. Since hotels and real estate are my worlds, this seemed like a natural extension of int...

Gail Flannigan Associates: The Long and Short of Bermuda Shorts
http://globalgail.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-long-and-short-of-bermuda-shorts.html
Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Dec 27, 2012. The Long and Short of Bermuda Shorts. Tucker's Point in Bermuda has a quietly seductive aura of elegance and sophistication. Since it is what you would expect from a Rosewood resort like others of its caliber, it does not pretend to appeal to the tourist masses. But then, neit. We were greeted by Ray, the doorman clad in a pink pith helmet with matching pink tie. Bermuda shorts, of course. The staff is genuinely gracious and respo...Devel...

Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Nov 19, 2012. I love the way New York City becomes the Escapism Capital of the World at this time of year.

Gail Flannigan Associates: March 2011
http://globalgail.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Mar 30, 2011. Feeding Frenzy in New York Hotel Real Estate. Chinese, Indian and Russian buyers scouring the New York City hotel real estate market are as ubiquitous as bedbugs these days. And both have a tenacious presence that leaves me wondering how this phenomenon overtook us. Let's face it. Wouldn't you rather own a famous hotel in midtown rather than an office building in the garment district? What is amazing to me as a real estate person is that ...

http://globalgail.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Luxury Travel Destinations, Lifestyles and Legacies. Aug 7, 2009. Today I am reminded of simpler times when the sun is seductively warming the streets of New York and the more informally attired workers are moving a bit slower than usual. I never grew up in New York City, but I am a native New Yorker by way of Staten Island. Not many people took us seriously in the "forgotten borough" even in those days. Or especially in those days. It is very surprising to me that Staten Island remains financially indep...
