The Peninsula excels at effortless sophistication, and their Beverly Hills location is no exception.

Plus, with complimentary use of a BMW for suite bookings, there’s never been an easier way to head to the beach.

This beachfront resort caters to families, friend groups, couples and solo travellers alike. You can make your stay here all-inclusive (the hotel offers a range of packages), or keep it à la carte. Lounge by one of several infinity pools, take a Mexican cooking class, indulge in the area’s vibrant nightlife or retreat to the holistic Cenote Spa, inspired by the region’s famed sinkholes.

The Lodge at Blue Sky, Auberge Resorts Collection: save 25% on stays booked 30+ days in advance

This 3,500-acre retreat, one of the best Auberge resorts, serves as an adventure guest ranch, wellness getaway, natural playground and family escape. It’s open year round, and is exceptionally easy to get to (it’s only 35 minutes away from the Salt Lake City airport), despite it feeling blissfully remote. The decor reflects the lodge’s natural surroundings, blurring the line between the indoors and outdoors. A regenerative onsite farm, 46 chic rooms, 40 miles of trails and over 300 experiences — hiking, snowshoeing, whiskey tasting, Pilates — await.

Our Perks:

  • £75 hotel / resort credit, £35 daily breakfast credit, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.

Fine print: available for travel now through December 19, 2024.

Now booking: Virgin Voyages Brilliant Lady 2025 debut

The adults-only cruise line recently announced the launch of its fourth (and, for now, final) lady ship. Tickets opened May 8 for 2025 voyages. Sail out of New York City en route to Bermuda, or opt for a tour of the California coast, starting out of LA. There’s also a 16-day voyage across the Panama Canal. On May 23, snag tickets for a Caribbean cruise out of Miami. Cruises out of Seattle will become available later this year. Expect new dining options, cabin categories, entertainment and itineraries — all with Virgin’s playful, luxury flair.

New opening alert: Casa Monti

From the team behind Paris’ La Fantaisie comes the equally fun, vibrant and playful Casa Monti. This hidden gem of a hotel is found in one of Rome’s loveliest neighborhoods: the first ward, away from the tourists and filled instead with artisans, shops, art galleries and wine bars. Laura Gonzalez’s tasteful bold decor — bright colors and patterns, varied shapes and textures — is on full display in each of the 36 distinct rooms. You’ll likely find it difficult to leave your well-appointed accommodations. But you must, if only to grab a cocktail at the rooftop bar, followed by an intimate dinner at the hotel’s terrace restaurant. 

Our opening offer perks:

  • £35 food / beverage or spa credit (for 2+ nights), breakfast daily and guaranteed upgrade at time of booking.

New opening alert: Teranka Formentera

a breezy living room with wooden, natura; decor and soothing white-washed walls

IMAGE COURTESY OF TERANKA FORMENTERA

This breezy, boutique Balearic Islands retreat is a study in barefoot luxury. Formentera is the archipelago’s smallest island, and consists of only five villages. The 35-room Teranka reflects the soothing, laid-back nature of its surroundings. Expect light-filled rooms, natural materials (wood, clay, pastel linens) and a pervasive effortlessness that immediately puts you at ease. Don’t miss the hotel’s integrative wellness experiences and treatments, nor its locally sourced gastronomic offerings. (The hotel’s rooftop restaurant prepares dishes in accordance with the lunar cycles, and features live DJ sets every Friday, Saturday and Sunday night.)

Our SLH withIN partner perks:

  • £35 hotel / resort credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.

New opening alert: Royal Mansour Casablanca

a fancy retro living room with orange and blue furniture and artistic floor-to-ceiling dividers

IMAGE COURTESY OF ROYAL MANSOUR CASABLANCA

Royal Mansour brings its signature opulence and world-class service to Casablanca. The luxury hotel is located in the city’s Art Deco district, and embodies the 1950s glamor of the area’s heyday. The staff wear 50s-inspired uniforms, and rooms are outfitted with retro-chic furniture, geometric patterns and modular decor. It’s a bit like stepping back in time, but with all the luxe amenities of today, plus the hotel brand’s signature predilection for luxury.
