Elevate your trip to Utah with a luxury stay at one of the world’s best ski hotels.

After hitting the slopes or shopping around downtown Park City, lounge in a leather chair near the fire, nursing a gourmet hot chocolate, or relax at the hotel’s spa. Later, indulge in a one-of-a-kind meal inside a Stein Aplenglobe, a life-sized (and heated) snow globe of sorts, with views of the surrounding Deer Valley.

This handsome historical landmark is an elegant, sophisticated oasis amid New York’s polished Financial District. Vintage pieces (and a personal cocktail bar) add character and class to each sleek room. The hotel’s signature bar, housed beneath a splendid atrium, beckons guests to sip on an expertly crafted drink. And few places can boast such a star-studded culinary program: chefs Tom Colicchio and Daniel Boulud are behind the hotel’s gastronomic options, from five-course dinners to a casual (but no less delicious) Lyonnais meal. The Beekman is Downtown’s it spot for vacationing in style.

Chablé Yucatán: $350 resort credit with 3+ nights

This dreamy wellness escape in the heart of the Yucatán jungle feels like a home away from home. And in fact, it's housed on an old hacienda, at the center of which lies a verdant, vine-flanked cenote (the perfect site for a relaxing yoga class accompanied by birdsong). The resort is at once chic and modern — think floor-to-ceiling glass windows, colorful tile and handsome iron beams — while preserving the timeless beauty of many of the hacienda's original structures. The food, most of which is sourced locally or from Chablé's on-site organic garden, celebrates Mexico's bounty and culinary traditions, bursting with flavor and nourishment. And the spa is reason alone to visit: private massage cabins dot the cenote's lush rim. If you're lucky, while enjoying a sumptuous massage or Naturopathica facial, the afternoon rains will roll in, providing the perfect soundscape for a transportive experience.
