The new joint venture between H&M and the renowned Palm Heights hotel is a must-see – it's an opulent tribute to the glamorous holidays of the '70s sunscape.

Got an invitation for an after-work soiree this week? You might just find me lounging around at a hidden wine bar, sipping on cocktails and celebrating the new H&M Home collaboration with the swanky Palm Heights boutique hotel on Grand Cayman Island. This piecing paradise, tucked away on a quaint corner, was the perfect place to showcase the exciting new collection. The vibrant yellow awnings out front matched the warm hue that runs throughout the collaboration and, honestly, the entire Palm Heights hotel.
The event's atmosphere perfectly encapsulated the spirit of this partnership - a dash of luxury vacation vibes, right here in our living rooms. Here's the down-low on this tropical getaway-inspired line.
'This collection is all about capturing that magical "I'm-on-holiday" feeling when you're cozying up at home,' explains Palm Heights' creative director, Gabriella Khalil. 'It's about those special moments like pampering yourself in a robe, setting the table for a dinner party, or just lingering over drinks with friends. While Palm Heights is renowned for its visual and chic aesthetic, it's also got a playful side to it - we want people to embrace that and bring it into their own homes.'
The collection features 23 items, ranging from glassware and home accessories, to robes, towels, fragrances, and more, all designed with that iconic 1970s Palm Heights style. Besides the bright yellow, the palette includes sandy browns - two unexpected color trends for summer.
'There's something irresistible about personal design hotels and the creative spirits behind them,' says Evelina Kravaev-Söderberg, Head of Design & Creative at H&M Home. 'Gabriella's vision for Palm Heights is a blend of bold aesthetics, retro charm, and a balanced mix of playfulness. This partnership and the collection marry the youthful energy, style, and escapism of Palm Heights with H&M's approach to modern design, inspiring enthusiastic interior designers all over the globe.'
Here are some standout pieces that really took my fancy:
Brown is the new black, and double-dipped in yellow, it's the perfect luxurious retro feel. This classic stripe pillow, reversible and featuring piping detail, is just the cherry on top of your tropical-themed living room.
Revisit the 70s with this fabulous amber glass jug. Pair it with the matching tumblers for a retro outdoor hosting set that'll make your backyard parties feel like a vacation in the Caribbean.
Steal the style of Palm Heights with these embroidered, vibrant poolside towels. They'll add a touch of high-end beachfront resort vibes to your bathroom.
For the ultimate luxe-at-home experience, check out these beautiful robes. They're like walking into a Palm Heights suite every time you step into the bathroom.
Bring some island charm into your kitchen with this hand-woven straw basket. Fill it with citrus fruits, or pop it on your bar cart for some added texture.
Immerse your senses in the fragrance of the tropics with this reed diffuser, inspired by sweet sun-ripened plums, tropical tonka beans, rich cedarwood, and tobacco leaves.
Relax in resort-style luxury with this versatile cushion (available in both the classic yellow shade and a sunny brown). It's perfect for an outdoor bench or a cozy spot on the patio.
The collection also boasts some playful pieces, like this fun set of beach tennis gear and a stylish wooden backgammon board. They're the chicest additions to your summer BBQ setup or travel case.
