Client reviews

“Isaiah represented buyer clients on one of my listings that closed recently. I’ve been in the business about 20 years and closed nearly 600 sales, and Isaiah clearly stands out as one of the finest, most professional agents I’ve ever worked with. He’s exceptionally responsive, creative and more knowledgeable than the vast majority of agents I’ve encountered in this oftentimes insane business. You can’t go wrong with this guy!”

– Dale

“Isaiah is the best! He knows his stuff and really went above and beyond to get us our new house, even while being contingent on the sale of our previous home. The market right now is insane, so it was important to have someone like him (passionate, persistent, patient, and knowledgeable) helping us every step of the way. He always kept us in the loop, quickly solved any problems that arose, and made the process fun. We couldn’t recommend him more!”

– Kristen

“If you are considering buying or selling a home, Isaiah Votaw is the excellent choice to represent you! As a mortgage lender, I have had the pleasure of working with many of San Diego‘s best Realtors, and Isaiah is definitely in that top tier! I prefer to work only with Realtors who really care first about their clients, and who put their client’s needs above all else. Isaiah is one of

these agents. It would be a disservice to yourself to not have his number saved in your phone.”

– Matt

“Isaiah is a wonderful and compassionate person. He helped us buy our first home in August of 2020. I’m in my 20’s and had absolutely zero knowledge of the escrow process. When I expressed my interests in purchasing a new home, he updated me on the market every week. He was very thorough, patient, and helped us understand each step of the home buying process throughout our journey. He answered all of our questions, connected us to appropriate resources, and provided valuable insight to help us get our offer accepted. We will work with him again for future business.”

– Sook

“Isaiah is great to work with! He’s very accommodating and went above and beyond in helping us purchase our forever home. He replies to your questions in a very generous, timely manner and makes you feel like you’re his only clients. He’s also very knowledgeable and patient. It has been a pleasure to work with him and I would absolutely recommend him to anybody who needs a Realtor. We’ll definitely recommend him to all our family and friends.”

– Michele

The Orient Express Cruise Line to Set Sail in 2026

More than a century after the debut of its first luxury trains, the iconic Orient Express will expand into the cruise world with the debut of Orient Express Silensea. The very first Orient Express sailing ship and “the largest sailing ship in the world” will set sail in 2026 and push “the limits of the possible,” according to a press release recently unveiled by French hospitality group Accor and Chantiers de l’Atlantique, a leader in the construction of cruise ships.

Sebastien Bazin, Chairman and CEO, Accor, promises the ship will “offer unparalleled service and spaces with refined designs, reminiscent of the golden age of legendary cruises” — not unlike the luxury trains for which the Orient Express name is best known. Part innovation in luxury and part innovation in yachting sustainability, the 220-meters-long Orient Express Silensea will boast three SolidSail rigs, a revolutionary 1500m2 unit sail propulsion system and a hybrid propulsion running on liquefied natural gas (LNG). Laurent Castaing, Managing Director, Chantiers de l’Atlantique, calls it “the benchmark ship in environmental terms” and “a sailboats of the future.”

A Legend that Began on the Sea

Inspired by the golden age of the French Riviera, Orient Express Silensea will recall the time when writers, artists, painters, sovereigns and movie stars discovered between MonteCarlo, Saint-Tropez, Cap d’Antibes, Cannes and its Croisette, a refinement tinged with carelessness and joie de vivre, calling for escape. The ship comes by its history honestly. In 1867, founder Georges Nagelmackers discovered his inspiration while boarding transatlantic ships from Europe to America. On these ships, he found luxurious suites for travel filled with sumptuous decor, the social life of the

restaurants and a unique atmosphere of the lounges, libraries and places for entertainment. This experience of luxury sea travel would later lead to the launch of his legendary train, the Orient Express, in 1833.

Life on the Silensea

Bringing together the best French talents, the Orient Express Silensea will “celebrate the Art of Travel” thanks to the vision of architect Maxime d’Angeac, who designed the interior layout and the decorations, and the Nantes design agency, Stirling Design International, who designed the exterior lines. The vessel will have 54 suites measuring an average area of 70 square meters, including its monumental

Presidential Suite of 1,415 meters square meters (including 530 square meters of private terrace). Two swimming pools, two restaurants and a speakeasy bar “will add to the quintessence of luxury.” For entertainment, guests ill be invited into the Amphitheater-Cabaret and a private recording studio. Spa treatments, meditation sessions and stopovers for cultural discovery allow a complete escape from the mundane world.

Sailboat of the Future

Orient Express Silensea will sail using with a revolutionary “SolidSail” technological design: three rigid sails with a surface area of 1,500 meters each will be hoisted on a balestron rig, with 3 tilting masts culminating at more than 100 meters high, able to provide up to 100% propulsion in suitable weather conditions. For a more

environmentally friendly voyage at sea, a hybrid formula will combine wind power with a stateof-the-art engine running on liquefied natural gas (LNG) and will allow the use of green hydrogen once technologies accepted for an ocean-going passenger ship.

The Orient Express Silensea will join the hospitality brand’s first hotels, Orient Express La Minerva in Rome and Orient Express Palazzo Dona giovanelli in Venice, which are anticipated to open in 2024. Another hotel project is also planned for Riyadh, followed by the launch of the Orient Express La Dolce Vita (a luxury train journey across Italy) and the return of the rails of the legendary Orient Express train, also in 2024.

This month we are debuting not only a new office in our global network, but an entirely new region for the Coldwell Banker brand! Our first office in Luxembourg has opened this year, nestled between France, Germany, and Belgium. We are thrilled to introduce you to the picturesque region and to the Brokers at Coldwell Banker Hestia, Caroline Gachet and Charlie Luthar.

“We invite you to discover our small, but really nice country. It’s worth your discovery!” Caroline Gachet shares. This is a modest statement, as Luxembourg may be one of the smaller countries in Europe, yet it is filled with gorgeous landscapes and medieval castles, and much of the city’s historical monuments have been carefully preserved. The historic walls and buildings aren’t the only things that have survived the past ten centuries, there is also the Schueberfouer fair that began in the year 1340. Every August, Luxembourgers celebrate the eight-day market week with a fair where you can shop and enjoy the local gastronomy, along with traditional fair rides, like a carousel and Ferris Wheel. Organized by

the city of Luxembourg, it takes place on 4 hectares of land known as the Champs de Glacis, and you won’t want to miss having some gromperekichelchers, the famous potato pancakes of local origin. Along with the fun annual events, Luxembourg has an excellent reputation for providing public transportation, education, and ranks highly among environmentally friendly countries in the world. It’s also a technology and finance capital, with both Amazon and Google calling it home for some of their offices.

“Don’t hesitate to invest here, the demand is always bigger than supply,” Charlie Luthar advises, Ms. Gachet’s partner. He continues, “The market increases every year for 5% minimum (12% in 2019) and you will be sure to do a good investment.”

With it’s fairy-tale aesthetics, excellent infrastructure and promising economic growth, you can be sure we will be at least attending Schueberfouer and checking out the available real estate in Luxembourg as soon as possible!
