Rapper Joey Badass and actress-singer Serayah, fresh off the grand reveal of their pregnancy during NYFW, took a well-deserved getaway to celebrate Valentine’s Day and their growing family at the ultra-exclusive A Ma Maniére Beach in Folly Beach, South Carolina.

This stunning retreat is the latest hospitality gem from The Whitaker Group, founded by James Whitner. A Ma Maniére Beach serves as an innovative seaside resort redefining luxury with stunning ocean views, set in a location that was once inaccessible to people of color.

The radiant couple, with Serayah’s baby bump stealing the spotlight, shared glimpses of their serene escape in an Instagram post. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the three-story beachfront property, their celebration perfectly captured the blend of high-end design and oceanfront tranquility.

A Ma Maniére is best known for its groundbreaking collaborations, including NIKE’s largest partnership since Virgil Abloh last year. Now, the brand is expanding into luxury travel, with its Folly Beach property marking the first of several planned destinations, including Sonoma County and London.

More than just a getaway, A Ma Maniére Beach represents a reimagined vision of luxury and cultural reclamation along South Carolina’s picturesque coastline. The newly unveiled boutique residence is a three-story seaside retreat featuring three bedrooms and three bathrooms, each thoughtfully designed to showcase breathtaking views of the Atlantic.

A Ma Maniére Beach stands as a powerful testament to Owner & Founder James Whitner’s commitment to breaking barriers and reshaping the narrative for Black and brown communities through his transformative initiatives. Strategically located in Folly Beach, SC—an area with a painful history of racial discrimination, particularly during the 1960s and early ’70s when segregation rendered it inaccessible to Black communities—this project represents more than just luxury.

It is a bold reclamation by a Black-owned business, reclaiming both the land and the views that were once unjustly denied to people of color.

“We are dedicated to creating spaces where Black and brown community members can embrace luxury on their own terms, and the A Ma Manière Beach concept stands as a testament to this unwavering commitment,” said Founder James Whitner. “This is more than just a destination; it embodies empowerment and inclusivity. By choosing Folly Beach, a locale with a history of exclusion, we are not only rewriting the narrative but reclaiming it.”

More than just a high-end retreat, A Ma Maniére Beach marks a bold new chapter in luxury hospitality, serving as a testament to The Whitaker Group’s dedication to creativity, inclusivity, and the continuous reimagining of what’s possible.
