Hay lugares donde el vino no se bebe: se vive. En el Valle de Okanagan, en la Columbia Británica, cada sorbo es un paisaje, cada viñedo una estación, cada copa una historia contada entre lagos y montañas. Aquí, donde el sol del verano madura lentamente las uvas y el otoño pinta las colinas de escarlata y oro, el vino se convierte en un viaje en sí mismo.

En NUBA creemos que la temporada festiva es un escenario para vivir lo extraordinario. Cada destino de esta selección ha sido curado no solo por su belleza, sino por su capacidad de transformar un viaje en memoria, y una estancia en un ritual de celebración. Porque el verdadero lujo no está en los lugares que visitas, sino en cómo eliges vivirlos.

Union Square siempre ha sido un punto de encuentro en Nueva York: mercados, arte callejero, librerías históricas y una energía que cambia con cada estación. Frente al parque, un edificio Beaux-Arts de 1911 vuelve a abrir sus puertas después de una renovación completa: el W New York – Union Square. Un hotel que conecta el estilo contemporáneo con la vida vibrante del downtown.
