Es Princep

You’ll find the family-owned Es Princep, in Palma, Mallorca, near the city’s old walls. The hotel resembles a traditional Mallorcan finca, and overlooks Palma Bay. The hotel is modern and breezy, with coastal vibes and a hushed glamour.
Don’t miss the iconic Es Princep Rooftop, an all-day space primed for tranquil poolside lounging by day, and cocktails and high-energy music by night. Have dinner at Zaranda, the hotel’s Michelin-Starred restaurant. Choose from three tasting menus, which range from two to 3.5 hours. Savor elevated Mallorcan fare amidst wooden beams, stylish décor and lots of natural light.
Fora Perks:
€100 spa credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade and extended check-in/out whenever possible.
Monteverdi Tuscany

Monteverdi is a restored hilltop medieval village (f.k.a. Castiglioncello del Trinoro). Choose from rustic-chic rooms, suites and homes, all decorated with gem tones (pinks, greens, blues), exposed wooden beams, colorful artwork and handsome (and heated) wooden floors.
Come for the location and five-star accommodations, stay for the wellness. The Monteverdi Spa and Wellness Center draws from ancient healing traditions and modern science. Medical professionals and guest practitioners tailor treatments to your goals. But the wellness extends beyond the spa and clinic. Partake in qi gong and guided hikes. Attend concerts and lectures. Reserve a day for a holistic culinary tour. Sample Pecorino and ricotta at an organic cheese farm. Then, visit a stone mill used to grind ancient grains before heading to a family-owned winery and, finally, tasting regional, herbaceous, punchy extra virgin olive oil.

NEW Hotel and NOŪS Santorini

These sister hotels are young, enthusiastic and seductive. When you visit one of their design-forward boutique hotels, you’ll see why. NEW Hotel, in Athens, is youthful and contemporary, with playfully eclectic décor: differently sized evil eyes affixed to the walls, crooked photographs, angled mirrors, asymmetry. The hotel’s permanent art collection highlights local artists, and it also regularly hosts rotating exhibits.
NOŪS Santorini epitomizes the sleek, minimalist aesthetic you’d expect from a luxury hotel on the island: smooth forms, clean lines, lots of white, wooden accents. Explore the surrounding area by private catamaran or helicopter. Take a food tour, or stay back for a nature-inspired treatment at the spa. You’ll love the hotel’s focus on wellness. Vitamin Bar serves nourishing snacks and smoothies throughout the day, and the gym is far from an afterthought; rather, it’s a beautiful, modern space you actually want to be in. Wellness is about balance, so in the evening, head to the on-site Elio’s, a dimly lit, decadent Italian-American steakhouse, where delights like vodka rigatoni and an affogato sundae await.
Fora Perks (perks vary by property):
$100 food / beverage credit, welcome amenities, complimentary roundtrip private airport transfers or spa discounts, breakfast daily, an upgrade and extended check-in/out whenever possible.
Casa de Campo Resort & Villas

There’s a reason Casa de Campo has been around for so long (it’s celebrating its 50th anniversary), but its longevity does not mean it’s out of style. The sprawling complex maintains its status as a premier Dominican Republic destination. The beach club is chic and vibey; the cocktails flow freely; the spa is characteristically zen. Stay in beachy rooms, suites and villas. Indeed, several celebrities own mansions tucked away in the resort’s leafy neighborhoods. There’s world-class golfing, a movie theater, a replica of a 16th-century Mediterranean village, a marina, shopping, nightlife, food trucks and numerous restaurants serving everything from fresh seafood to Mexican staples.
Fora Perks:
$200 spa or golf credit, a welcome amenity, breakfast daily, an upgrade and extended check-in/out whenever possible.
Alpes Hôtel du Pralong

Skiing is far more fun when you know you have a cozy, luxurious place to retreat after a day on the slopes. Alpes Hôtel du Pralong, in Courchevel, is that place. The 65-room Alpine-chic resort gives chalet vibes with a luxe twist. Knotted wood, colorful rugs, plush upholstered furniture and furry blankets make you feel as though you’re living in a real-life winter fairytale.
The on-site Bernard Orcel ski room handles gear rentals, and resident valet skiers will have your gear ready for you each morning (they’ll even put your boots on and take them off). Refuel in between runs at the slopeside Musher Grill. Recover in the sauna, steam room and hot tub back at the hotel before indulging in well-deserved mountain comfort food at Le Musher.
Fora Perks:
$100 food / beverage credit, breakfast daily, a 20-minute après-ski massage add-on to any treatment, an upgrade and late check-out whenever possible.
The Bohemians Concept: NOMAD Mykonos & BOHÈME Mykonos

Any hotel by The Bohemians Concept excels at sustainable design, efficient use of resources and a hyperlocal, effortlessly chic aesthetic. At BOHÈME Mykonos, you’ll love the breezy, white-washed décor accented with stone and pottery. Enjoy local food and cooking lessons, and meander among the hotel’s garden and lemon trees.
At the 14-suite NOMAD, expect a moody, sexy vibe. Here, charcoal hues and muted neutrals create an ultra-private, discreet feel. Each suite comes with a hot tub or plunge pool (or both), and handmade jewelry, ceramics and other adornments made by Greek artisans populate the sleek spaces. Don’t miss a screening in NOMAD’s cinema, outfitted with antique theater seats.
Fora Perks:
€100 food / beverage or spa credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade and extended check-in/out whenever possible.
The Knickerbocker

Manhattan’s who’s-who have flocked to The Knickerbocker since it opened, in 1906. The business magnate John Jacob Astor IV (who later died in the sinking of the Titanic) is behind the glamorous, refined Times Square hotel. Everything here is big: the ceilings, the windows, the doors, the personality. Guests once had to don a tuxedo to check in. If you didn’t have a tux, the on-site tailor would whip one up for you on the spot. Legend has it that the Knickerbocker invented the dry martini. Perhaps it did, perhaps it didn’t. Regardless, order one with dinner at the hotel’s Charlie Palmer steakhouse.
Fora Perks:
$50 food / beverage credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade and late check-out whenever possible.
Romanico Palace Luxury Hotel & Spa

The over-the-top, richly decorated Romanico Palace sits near Rome’s Via Veneto, a short walk from the city’s main attractions. The décor is ornate and bright, a celebration of Italian splendor. Expect lots of velvet, painted ceilings, gilded motifs and intricate, colorful tilework. After a day of exploring, refresh in the hotel’s Spa Romamor, complete with a hydromassage room, Turkish bath, relaxation area and sauna. Then head up to the rooftop restaurant for aperitivo and dinner paired with sweeping city views.
Fora Perks:
A welcome gift and drink, spa-access discount, an upgrade and early check-in whenever possible.
