Oftentimes, the table affords a front-row view of the kitchen, and a number of restaurants with a chef’s table experience are Michelin-starred, including Providence—where Chef Michael Cimarusti is known to chat with guests throughout the evening—and Patina, a neighborhood favorite offering exquisite French cuisine.

Tranquil moments in your own home (or oceanfront suite) can often be the most relaxing of all, which is why we recommend luxury wellness products for your holiday wishlist. The Gloucestershire-based Bamford draws inspiration from nature and travel to bring us restorative body and skincare lines made from organic, plant-based ingredients. We particularly recommend their Botanic Shampoo and Conditioner, which both use castor oil to restore natural vitality.
