Fake a Vacation: Take a Break at Your Place

JUNE 9, 2009

Time-out without the travel time.

Stock your bathroom with pretty soap (like the fresh, handmade confections at Lush) and flip the Do Not Disturb Sign. If you live in one of the city's top condos, your getaway-to-stay is likely to be part of the package: The Platinum at 247 West 46th Street rocks a sound-proof room with full-body massage chairs, a golf simulator room and a wrap-around terrace with an outdoor fireplace and cool misting area. At 75 Wall Street the 42nd-floor rooftop includes a solarium, lounge, sand beach, hot tub, hammocks and grills, and at the The Setai New York at 40 Broad Street you'll find gas-fire grill pits for campfires, cabanas with oversized daybeds, and rooftop room service.

If your building isn't the cabana kind, you can order à la carte. Top caterers like Michelle's Kitchen and Naturally Delicious will gladly supply the room service, and the cleaning pros at Pure Home offer sheet laundry, turndown service and aromatherapy for your space. You can even indulge in a spa massage . Then, perfect your re-entry: Sport a rested glow with the help of modern self-tanners that save your skin.
