Wake Up With Rooftop Paddleboard Yoga at The Maybourne Beverly Hills Super Swanky Pool
Paddleboard yoga has long been a craze in Los Angeles. But for those of us who are terrified of the pounding waves of the Pacific Ocean, or hear the theme from Jaws when venturing too far from the shore, the floating yoga studio at The Maybourne Beverly Hills is a great way to jump into the aquatic workout. This month, The Maybourne Beverly Hills began offering YOGAqua classes in the stunning pool in the picturesque pool on the hotel's ninth floor led by the technique's founder Sarah Tiefenthaler, who started her SUP [standup paddleboard] business on Mother's Beach in Marina del Rey in 2011. The class promises participants a 60-minute, Vinyasa-style session that is accessible for any level, seasoned yogis or terrified beginners (like me). "No previous yoga or SUP experience is required—just a willingness to try something new and embrace a little wobble," the hotel promises. With a class costing just $30 bucks - which includes a complimentary juice from The Maybourne Café after the practice - it's a steal for anyone who wants to learn the practice in calm, still waters without the fear of jellyfish or sharks.
The partnership with YOGAqua is part of a trend that multiple luxury hotels are leaning into: inviting residents of their areas to participate in the spa or pool offerings. The Shay in Culver City has teamed up with ResortPass for a $25 dollar entry deal for its rooftop pool, one of the many boutique hotels who are swinging open its doors to Angelenos for staycations. Next Thursday, The Maybourne Beverly Hills will be the site for the pride party celebration hosted by Los Angeles that will include a slew of special guests including our June cover star Matt Bomer.

Gymkhana, London's Two-Michelin-Starred Indian Restaurant, Is Opening at the Aria
A two-Michelin-starred restaurant out of London is landing on the Las Vegas Strip, bringing upscale Indian dining to the Aria Resort and Casino. Gymkhana will debut this fall with a design inspired by Indian social clubs, chaat-style sharing plates, and the refined cooking that made it one of London's most sought-after reservations. In London, Gymkhana was upgraded to two Michelin stars in 2024 after earning its first star in 2014 for its extensive Northern Indian-style menus, with standout dishes like tandoori masala lamb chops and kid goat methi keema. At Aria, the restaurant will focus on tandoor-grilled chicken, classic curries such as Goan prawn curry and pork cheek vindaloo, and fragrant biryanis, like a version made with wild venison, pomegranate, and mint raita. Gymkhana will also introduce new menu items exclusive to Las Vegas, along with a full bar program built around Indian-inspired cocktails. The restaurant will take over the former Julian Serrano Tapas space, which closed in February following legendary chef Julian Serrano's retirement. In London, Gymkhana spans two floors, designed with jewel-toned interiors, a vivid red basement dining room, and architectural elements influenced by Northern India. At Aria, the Las Vegas outpost will feature a bold forest green entrance, replacing Tapas' open format with double doors that lead into a mirror-flanked foyer and a dramatically warm interior. The restaurant was founded by siblings Jyotin, Karam, and Sunaina Sethi of JKS Restaurants, inspired by Indian social clubs where members of high society socialize, eat, drink, and play sports. Gymkhana is the first-ever upscale Indian restaurant to open on the Strip, which is surprising given the sheer number of restaurants and the breadth of Indian cuisine in the city. While Tamba, which opened earlier this year at Town Square, recently brought higher-end Indian cooking back to Las Vegas Boulevard, Gymkhana will be the first to bring a globally recognized Indian fine dining standard to the heart of the Strip. Gymkhana opens this fall, marking a rare moment for the Las Vegas Strip: the arrival of an acclaimed Indian fine dining restaurant — and a major win for the Aria, which hasn't seen a marquee opening since Cathédrale, whose brief two-year run ended in May.

Big pop star is moving to Miami, and he just bought a ‘Housewives' house
Talk about your big time celebrity real estate transactions. 'Real Housewives of Miami' alum Nicole Martin and her attorney fiancé Anthony Lopez just sold their Coral Gables megamansion to pop star Robbie Williams. Price tag: a cool $40 million. Dennis Carvajal with ONE Sotheby's International Realty represented the local power couple, while the British singer was repped by Chad Carroll at Compass, the Miami Herald was told. According to the description on the 19,380-square-foot, seven bedroom, eight bathroom waterfront estate sits on a one-acre peninsula in the exclusive gated enclave of Old Cutler Bay. Lopez and Martin, parents of two, purchased the property, built in 2016, in 2022 for $21.5 million, then gave it a major glow-up, as seen in a few episodes of the Bravo hit. The sprawling, so-called smart home is 'designed for both everyday living and grand entertaining,' with such amenities as a movie theater, wine cellar, gym, massage room/spa, resort style pool, 18-car garage, a dock, plus views for days. As huge as this Mediterranean-style compound is, Bravo reports that Williams has plans to add even more square footage and build a recording studio on site. It's unclear why Martin and Lopez wanted to unload the palatial abode, which came fully furnished, as part of Williams' off-market deal. The anesthesiologist left 'RHOM' last year amid struggles with her mental health, but recently made a guest appearance on the show. She and Lopez also have a stunning retreat in Aspen, Colorado. As for Williams, it's also unclear why the former Take That band member wanted to move to South Florida, besides the obvious reasons. The 'Angels' hitmaker recently sold his Beverly Hills mansion to Drake for $75 million. The music star is married to California native/ 'X Factor' judge Ayda Field and they have four school age kids. Let's give the whole family a warm Miami welcome.

Watch Reneé Rapp's Broadway-Ready Performance of ‘Shy' on Colbert
Reneé Rapp appeared on The Late Show to perform her new song 'Shy.' The singer showcased the anthemic, '90s-inspired pop number from a Broadway-style set with a New York City apartment and fire escape. 'Oh, what a good time to be alive/ I'm good at keepin' it cute, but on the inside/ I'm freakin' out, thinkin' 'bout how bad I need you,' she crooned as she moved through the set, posing in the faux window and on the fire escape.

'See you thereeee,' she wrote on Instagram. In May, the singer stopped by the podcast Good Hang with Amy Poehler, and shared that her mom, Denise Rapp, specifically chose her name to ensure success. 'My mom chose my first and last name to be—well, okay, arguably chose my first and last name to both have R's,' Rapp told host Poehler. 'She was like, 'Alliteration, just in case she wants to be a pop star'… I'm obsessed with the way she did it. I'm like, 'Thank you, God.''
