West Palm Beach
The trio got back together for our 2nd annual girls trip! Here’s all the details for the perfect girls getaway in West Palm Beach, Florida!
HOTEL DETAILS
Where did we stay? The Ben Luxury Hotel
What room did you stay in? We stayed in the Water Front Double Queen Room and it was PERFECT for two of us sharing a room. It had ample amount of space in the room and bathroom for us to get ready.
Was it in a central spot? Yup! Every morning Holland and I went on walks across the bridge to the cute shops and could walk to grab coffees and juices at Pura Vida. All the restaurants we went to were less than 10 minute drives away.
Would you stay there again? 100%. The property was in a great location, quiet, and clean!
ITINERARY
Saturday
CHECK IN 3PM
We started the trip on a Saturday because Thamarr and I went on the cruise beforehand! We took a car service from Miami to WPB for check in at 3PM. We had just been going 100 mph for a few days on the cruise we asked for the 1st night to be laid back.
DINNER: ECHO
For my fellow sushi lovers, this is close to the hotel and a quaint dinner spot. Very low key and the food was great.

Sunday
TEA: Flagler Museum
If you have ever wanted to throw on a cute outfit and play tea with your girlfriends, now you can! The food and tea was not anything to write home about but the building was stunning. For food it was your typical tea party with an assortment or sandwiches and sweets. From our understanding, there was no alcohol either. Boo.
This is a seasonal event. We were here in April and I believe it was going to be done by the end of the month!
Dress attire: elevated casual (we wanted to play the tea party part)
SHOPPING AND QUICK BITE: Royal and Honor Bar
The Royal shopping center was literally right across the street from the Flagler Museum so we walked through the open shopping mall for a couple hours. Holland was dying to take us to her one of her fav lunch spots (Honor Bar) and it was the perfect girl lunch! I have the most refreshing cocktail (vodka, smashed grapes, mint and club soda) with their kale salad and skinny fries *delish*
DINNER: The Proper Grit (Hotel Restaurant)
We were all honestly so tired from bopping around so we had dinner at the hotel and were pleasantly surprised how good it was! It’s a moody atmosphere and fantastic cocktails. The highlight was their cornbread.. 😂 It was apart of their hanging bacon appetizer and it was so good we requested a second round without the bacon LOL

Monday
BRUNCH: Swifty’s
Swifty’s is located in the iconic Colony Hotel! The food was delicious and the atmosphere is straight from Palm Royale.
Dress attire: elevated casual
After brunch we went to Worth Ave to walk around for a little more shopping. The street has a lot of iconic designers/stores and is gorgeous.
POOL DAY: Back at the hotel for some R&R
DINNER: Buccan
This was the more sophisticated dinner we went to. They were packed on a Monday night - be sure to grab a reservation! The food was amazing and the Watermelon Martini is a must!
Dress attire: I wore my blue dress and I think it was giving a bit too much Miami vibes. My white set from night 1( or my brunch outfit) would have matched the vibes. Think chic, elevated and classy.

FASHION
When you go to Palm Beach, there is no holding back in fashion. Everyone was dressed like they were straight out of Palm Royale. It is a more laid back, but a high end/chic laid back vibe. Think linen sets and long maxi dresses. I definitely wish I would have done more research on the fashion there because there were times I did feel a little under dressed or dressed for the wrong vibe (more Miami).
