The Trazees

Aug 1, 2015
2015

Everything travel, from A to Z. That’s the motto of Trazee Travel, the Web publication for the uber-millennial created by the team behind Global Traveler. Launched in September 2014, the website, updated several times daily, covers a wide range of subjects of interest to travelers ages 18–35. From products and tips to trends and reviews, trazeetravel.com also focuses on destination weddings, bachelor and bachelorette parties and honeymoons. The Under $100 section tells a traveler how to do a destination for less than $100 a day, while the Top 5 category brings the five best of any one thing in any city — think Top 5 Free Museums in Washington, D.C. — but so much more. As promised, a little of bit of everything; there are interviews, quizzes and polls, too.

And that’s not all — our Community section allows our readers to share their own travel stories and photos. Join today at trazeetravel.com.

Trazeetravel.com is proud to present The Trazees 2015, the inaugural winners of our annual awards. Congratulations to the following trendsetters!

Review: Moxy NYC Chelsea

ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: The hotel was designed to blend into the New York City landscape, specifically the Chelsea Flower District on which the property sits. The iconic neon purple Moxy sign, however, beckoned to me, where I was first met with an airy atrium paying homage to the hotel’s location with vibrant plastic flowers adorning a vintage-looking floral stand. It offered the perfect photo opportunity, and I was told the installation changes regularly. While the lobby is more of a small room with check-in desks, it’s seamless, efficient and easy to navigate. The check-in desks alone are unique, hanging by dark pipes from the ceiling, swaying ever so slightly.

Trace New Orleans’ Liquid Lineage at Experiential Sazerac House

In no other city are spirits and cocktails so inextricably linked than in New Orleans. Here you can sip a Vieux Carré, named for the French Quarter, while seated at a stool around the slowly revolving Carousel Bar where it was invented; or marvel at the lengthy hand-shaking required for the silky-smooth emulsification and mile-high airy foam of the Ramos Gin Fizz, an ethereal, heady drink created by Henry Ramos in 1888.

From Bethpage to Adare: Following the Ryder Cup to Ireland

In September 2025, the eyes of the golf world will turn to New York, where Bethpage Black hosts the Ryder Cup.

In 2027, the Ryder Cup will cross the Atlantic, arriving at one of Europe’s most celebrated courses: Adare Manor in County Limerick, Ireland.

Kanu Private Island Resort Review

On a small coral island just 25 minutes by boat from Placencia, Belize, five villas edge the sand with not much else around. No neighbors. No noise. No check-in counters. When you arrive at Kanu Private Island, there is no one waiting in line before you because there is no one else coming. This is a one-party island booked through Gecko Vacation Rentals, and everything from welcome drinks to your farewell transfer is designed around your group alone.

Ireland: The Pinnacle of Golf by the Sea and Beyond

With the legacy of The Open at Royal Portrush still fresh, Ireland secured its place among the world’s most exceptional golf destinations. For those in search of championship courses, dramatic landscapes and renowned hospitality, the island offers an experience unlike any other.
