The revamped Shelborne Hotel is now also opening a beach club
Just in time for summer, The Shelborne by Proper is making waves—literally. Starting May 1, the newly reimagined Art Deco hotel on Miami Beach, fresh off a $100 million renovation, will unveil Beach Club by Proper, a members-only oasis that combines sun-soaked relaxation with upscale amenities and a strong focus on wellness. Think front-row beach beds, DJ sets, green juice and a racquet in hand, all in a single day.
'With The Shelborne by Proper, we're breathing fresh life into a Miami icon,' said Brian De Lowe, co-founder and president of Proper Hospitality, in an official statement. '[We're] pairing timeless design with a contemporary spirit that builds community through art, dining, and wellness.'
Like De Lowe implies, the new Beach Club isn't your average towel-and-umbrella setup. Members of Beach Club by Proper can expect daily access to reserved loungers and umbrellas on the sand, full food and beverage service, and entry to the hotel's iconic pool scene, complete with private cabanas and a playful nod to nostalgia via its historic diving board.
Wellness is at the core of the offering, with 24/7 access to a sleek, state-of-the-art fitness studio, more than 20 weekly wellness and fitness classes, private training options and complimentary monthly sessions at buzzy local studios. There's also a robust racquet program, plus the hotel's Proper Presents series featuring curated cultural talks, wellness panels and sunset sound baths.
It's not all self-optimization, though. The club also plans to deliver on the fun with weekly live music and DJ sets, family-friendly barbecues, monthly breakfasts and quarterly dinners. With stylish co-working spaces, priority cabana bookings and exclusive perks throughout the hotel and city, the Beach Club aims to blend leisure, productivity and access for its members.

Antiques Roadshow guest gobsmacked as five-figure value of family heirloom unveiled
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info A guest on Antiques Roadshow was visibly moved after learning the surprising auction value of her family heirloom brooch during a repeat episode from series 45, broadcast on Sunday 8th June. The programme transported viewers to Brodie Castle, where numerous guests had their prized possessions evaluated by the show's experts. In a particularly touching moment towards the end of the show, one woman was astonished when Susan Rumfitt, an expert from Antiques Roadshow, revealed the potential auction price of her treasured brooch. Susan praised the Art Deco-style brooch during her conversation with the owner, playfully remarking, "I hope you wear it every day." The owner replied in jest: "I do," but then clarified that she actually wears it for evening occasions, reports the Express. (Image: BBC) When asked if the brooch was part of a larger collection, the owner admitted to having additional pieces, but highlighted the diamond brooch as the standout item. Susan delved into the brooch's past, prompting the owner to recount its lineage from her grandmother, who, despite being a farmer's wife, dressed extravagantly for social events, hence the opulent brooch. Susan disclosed that the brooch dates back to the 1930s. She elaborated on the design philosophy, noting: "The style of jewellery was very similar to the '20s in regards to being bold and impressive as we're seeing here." Susan noted, "But we've moved away from colour and also concentrating on diamonds as well, which is quite extraordinary considering that in 1929 we had the Wall Street Crash and The Depression." (Image: BBC) She added, "Suddenly we're now concentrating on diamonds which does seem rather strange." The expert informed the guest that the diamonds were of modern brilliant cut, a characteristic uncommon in pre-1930s jewellery, when diamonds tended to be cushion-shaped and less refined. Susan explained that by the 1930s, advancements in diamond cutting led to more precise, symmetrical designs. While examining the piece, the expert highlighted its uniqueness, pointing out that most bow brooches typically come apart, but this one surprisingly did not. Intrigued, Susan asked the owner about her estimate of the diamond's carat weight, to which the woman guessed three carats. As Susan pulled a surprised expression, the guest hesitated: "Shall I reduce that slightly?" The expert's unexpected response followed: "How about 14? Obviously, that's going to help with the value, isn't it?" (Image: BBC) The owner was astonished, laughing and optimistically commenting on the potential boost to the brooch's worth. Susan concluded, "It's stunning. It makes us smile. In an auction, I'd expect this to fetch an excess of £20,000." Overwhelmed by the high valuation, the lady exclaimed: "Oh my goodness! That's taken my breath away that one, brings tears to my eyes!" Despite discovering its staggering value, she affirmed her decision to continue wearing the brooch. The crowd erupted into cheers as the woman admitted that learning about the real value of her grandmother's brooch was quite a surprise. Antiques Roadshow is currently available for streaming on BBC iPlayer.

'Outstanding' Art Deco home in a Glasgow suburb hits the market
The movement's impact quickly spread and in Scotland, architects and designers incorporated features into their work, resulting in fashionable new villas, shops, cafés, and cinemas, many of which remain and now have listed status. (Image: Corum) Located south of the river Clyde in the high amenity suburb of Newton Mearns, Whitegables is an exemplary, flat-roofed detached villa distinguished by its classic Art Deco design and sizeable corner setting on Kirkview Crescent, within beautifully landscaped garden grounds. Built circa 1930, the property has since been extended on one side and provides superb family accommodation spanning more than 2,600 sq ft over two levels. On the ground floor, a striking black and white entrance hall sets the scene, paving the way to a front-facing formal sitting room partially open plan to a dining room, the latter with access into a spectacular 29ft family room with access to a decked terrace and garden beyond. From the family room, an inner hallway gives access to a bedroom with garden access, adjacent storage room, and integral double garage. On the other side of the main reception hall is a cloakroom, study/fifth bedroom, and large, dual aspect dining kitchen with garden access and adjacent utility. (Image: Corum) Upstairs are three beautifully proportioned bedrooms – all of which have a private balcony. In addition, the principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, as does the second bedroom, while the 24ft third bedroom is adjacent to the family bathroom and has the largest balcony – at 32ft wide, it spans almost the full width of the front of the house. Featuring hardwood flooring throughout the main accommodation, the monochromatic interior is dramatic and complements this incredible home's classic Art Deco features – window and door styles, coving, and stair balustrades – and choice of finishes. (Image: Corum) Nowhere is this clearer than the sitting room and kitchen, the former with an elongated, curved bay window, and fluted black and white fireplace, while the integrated kitchen displays pristine white units with contrasting black work surfaces, black geometric tiled border, and dazzling black and white geometric tiled floor. Externally bordered by mature trees and shrubs, the property is set in expansive, level garden grounds incorporating lawns, planted beds, and horseshoe driveway with parking for several vehicles. Whitegables is a truly outstanding home, located in a prime property hotspot with nearby M77/M8 access, and within walking distance of open countryside. Offers over £685,000 are invited by Corum's Newton Mearns office.

Explore Singapore's best bars with this unique hydrating bar hop experience
Tell me more about the bars we're hitting up On the second hop, we're taking you to NOST, a cosy, low-lit cocktail cocoon lodged in one of the shophouses in Club Street. On the flipside, you'll also get to soak up the grandeur of ATLAS, Singapore's Art Deco gin temple, where the cocktails are as extravagant as the interiors. Then elevate your night at HighHouse – quite literally on levels 61 and 62 at One Raffles Place. This sky-high spot impresses with stunning city views, slick interiors, and bar bites worth the lift ride alone. And because we can't get enough of Stay Gold Flamingo, we're heading back there for the second time – but with a different treat, of course. Free transport will be provided to shuttle you from one bar to the next. What's on the cocktail menu? NOST's Zappel is a crisp mix of Glenlivet apple cider, fino sherry, and celery tonic water. At ATLAS, the S.W. Tönikum tickles the tastebuds with a layered blend of Monkey 47 Gin, cherry, chocolate, vanilla, and Perrier that's fruity, creamy, and beautifully complex. HighHouse's Monk in the Jungle shakes things up with Havana 7 and monk fruit tea. Back at Stay Gold Flamingo, the Bloody Maria packs a punch with Codigo 1530 mezcal, kagome tomato, lemon, firewater, and saline for a spicy, smoky finish. Will there be snacks with my sips? You bet there are. NOST serves up the cheekily named Wagwan Bakwan – corn fritters jazzed up with scallions and carrot – and a deeply fudgy Nost Brownie topped with sea salt espuma. Over at ATLAS, you'll get truffled polenta croquettes with porcini salt and parmigiano reggiano, as well as a very special treat: popcorn cream cone. At HighHouse, it's a proper feast with buttermilk fried prawns in sweet-and-sour sauce and sticky lamb ribs piled high on fried potato salad, then topped with garlicky XO sauce. Stay Gold Flamingo's spicy-savoury combo of mala quail eggs and padron peppers makes a welcome return.
