Sweepstakes entry sponsored by La Spezia Crush & host by Gal Off Duty

Step right in, friend —

the city’s humming low tonight,
the kind of velvet hum you feel in your chest
before you hear it in your ears.
New York’s tuned up,
and it’s saving a front-row seat just for you.

A chance to take home:

Today’s sweepstakes invite was crafted with the spirit of Harlem’s jazz greats — the same icons who helped launch the Harlem Renaissance, a cultural movement so powerful it reshaped American music between 1918 and the mid-1930s.

See if you can spot the legendary influence 👀

🎷 Cozumel Collective Presents:

A Midnight Invitation to the Hemingway Suite

Step right in, friend —
the city’s humming low tonight,
the kind of velvet hum you feel in your chest
before you hear it in your ears.
New York’s tuned up,
and it’s saving a front-row seat just for you.

For this little number,
we’re offering you 3 nights in The Hemingway Suite
at The Lexington —
a room with a rhythm all its own.
Soft brass glow, polished wood,
and that quiet, confident air
like the walls once heard stories
that never made it to print.

To help you glide into town
with a touch of brass-section bravado,
we’re sliding a $500 AMEX travel card your way —
so whether you’re rolling in like a cool trumpet line
or drifting in soft as a brushed snare,
you arrive right on beat.

And once you hang your hat,
you’ll find a $250 credit at The Stayton Room
waiting to warm the night.
Picture it: a dim-lit bar,
a glass catching the glow like it’s center stage,
and you — leaning back, smooth as a late-set bass solo —
toasting to luck, luxury,
and the sweet swing of good timing.

This city has a way of lifting you,
like a song rising slow from the bandstand
before it blooms wide into the room.

Go on — step into the spotlight.
Enter now, and let New York play your theme.
