The Woodward, Geneva’s most exclusive address and only three-Michelin-Key hotel, is now part of Auberge Resorts Collection, continuing the brand’s expansion in Europe (ahead of the highly anticipated opening of Collegio alla Querce in Florence). Set on the shores of Lake Geneva with panoramic views of the Swiss Alps, this storied retreat is Switzerland’s most celebrated luxury hotel. Inside, Pierre-Yves Rochon’s refined contemporary design sets the tone. The Guerlain Spa spans two floors and features Geneva’s longest indoor pool. Dining is just as impressive with L’Atelier Robuchon, holding the city’s only two-Michelin-Star restaurant.

  • Our perks include £75 food and beverage credit, daily breakfast, an upgrade and extended check-in/out whenever possible.

Raffles expands its legacy in Singapore with a second outpost — an ultra-luxe, all-villa retreat on a forested hilltop on Sentosa Island. Villas feature private pools, breezy indoor-outdoor living and views of the South China Sea. Wellness and privacy are at the forefront, yet the hotel’s Rolls-Royce is on hand for a private city tour when you’re ready to explore. Don’t miss the signature afternoon tea in the Raffles Room and the standout whisky and Champagne selection in the Chairman’s Room.

Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, Costa Rica opened March 1

Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, makes its début as Central America’s first Ritz-Carlton Reserve, bringing next-level luxury to Costa Rica’s Peninsula Papagayo. Inspired by the Chorotega word for “lush garden,” the resort celebrates local craftsmanship with figural gold artifacts, clay pottery and wood, stone and bamboo accents. Sip cocktails in the treetops at Ambar, then ride the funicular down to Niri Beach Club for wood-fired, toes-in-the-sand dining. Accessible by a suspended bridge and garden paths, the Nimbu Spa — home to Latin America’s largest hydrotherapy pool — immerses you in nature, while the surrounding Palmares Preserve offers zip-lining, sailing and championship golf.

  • Our perks include £75 hotel credit, a welcome amenity, daily breakfast, an upgrade and extended check-in/out whenever possible.

Culinary highlights include Marisol by Michelin-Starred chef Johnny Spero and Onda, a beachfront collaboration with Eden Roc Cap Cana’s Adriano Venturini. Lounge in Vilebrequin cabanas, take a dip in three pools or hit the waves while kids enjoy Banyan Bunch Beachside and Game Loft.

Aman’s 36th property brings the brand back to Thailand, this time in the heart of Bangkok. Designed by longtime Aman collaborator Jean-Michel Gathy, the 52-suite retreat blends the brand’s signature aesthetic with Thai heritage, creating a serene escape within the eight-acre Nai Lert Park. Suites — among the city’s largest — start at 94 square meters, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing park and skyline views. Expect a two-story Aman Spa and Wellness center, exclusive Aman Club and multiple dining venues, plus a medical clinic offering IV therapy and cryotherapy.

  • Our Perks include £75 food and beverage or spa credit, complimentary roundtrip limousine airport transfers and fast track service at airport for stays of 2+ nights, daily breakfast, an upgrade and extended check-in/out whenever possible.

Perfect for families, couples and groups, guests can tee off at the nearby Punta Espada golf course, unwind under palm trees with the signature St. Regis butler service or explore Cap Cana’s pristine coastline.
