Award-winning spa, hiking, and world-class restaurant Murray Circle
Sunset calls it one of the Best Hotels in the West. Condé Nast Traveler calls it one of the Top 200 Hotels in the US. The Golden Gate Bridge calls it “neighbor”. Welcome to Cavallo Point Lodge, your dream getaway.
Some resorts boast a first-class spa; others, a world-class restaurant. Cavallo Point offers both and then some. Just a short ride from the City by the Bay and nestled against the Marin Headlands, this historic lodge wraps the best cultural and outdoor activities into one luxurious package.
Start your day with free yoga in the converted chapel. End it with housemade, organic-fueled cocktails around an outdoor firepit. What you put in the middle—a coastal trek, a massage, a stroll around San Francisco—is all up to you.
“This is our favorite romantic getaway. We always stay at the historical buildings, they have so much character with all modern amenities needed. The location is perfect. And the restaurant is just amazing.”
“We’ve stayed at Cavallo Point Lodge twice. Each stay was beyond perfect. The service is exceptional … Be sure to catch the view of the Golden Gate Bridge over a cocktail by the fire pits.”
“Our room was charming and comfortable. The spa around the corner had an outdoor meditation pool where you could sit in the hot water and look up into the beautiful surrounding landscape.”
“Fantastic views. Great hospitality all around. It is the perfect getaway for couples and it’s walking distance to the water. If you are coming here for leisure, this is the place to stay.”
Nestled near the lakes, volcanoes, and forests of Masaya Volcano National Park sits Hacienda Puerta del Cielo Ecolodge & Spa. This adults-only oasis gives new meaning to the term “jungle gym.”
A cup of rich Nicaraguan coffee on your private patio starts the day off right. If it’s a day for adventure, explore the nearby Mombacho cloud forest. This wildlife refuge explodes with vibrant colors and sounds. And Hacienda’s proximity to Nicaragua’s cultural gems makes a great day trip for your favorite history buff.
Of course, we won’t blame you if you decide to catch some rays by the lazy river pool—there’s nothing wrong with soaking up Nicaragua from the lap of luxury.
Towering mountains and heat that begs for poolside lounging tell you you’re in Palm Springs. Acres of olive trees, citrus groves, and Tuscan-inspired architecture tell a whole other story. At Miramonte Resort & Spa, a Mediterranean oasis sits just minutes from first-class hiking, golf, shopping, and dining.
Cool down with a dip in Miramonte’s signature pool. Private cabanas, plush daybeds, and top-notch service keep you comfortable and never without a fresh, fruity cocktail. And if you’rereally looking to get away from it all, you can always enjoy the day from your personal shaded patio.
It wouldn’t be a trip to Miramonte without a visit to THE WELL Spa. Named the #1 Resort Spa in North America & the Caribbean by Condé Nast Traveler, this 12,000-sq-ft haven features some of the most ahh-inducing treatments in the northern hemisphere.
“The Miramonte Resort is beyond beautiful! The entire grounds are incredibly picturesque with gorgeous desert landscaping all around but has cool Mediterranean decor throughout. They have an unbelievable spa that you have to check out!”

Big 4 Restaurant’s executive chef named Chef of the Year by the National Executive Chefs Association
Converted from luxury apartments in 1924, The Huntington Hotel’s rooms have kept their lofty dimensions—which means a luxurious amount of space in a seven-by-seven-mile city. But that’s not the only thing you’ll get. A gorgeous view of Grace Cathedral, modern décor, and gracious service make these SF digs irresistible.
High on Nob Hill near the historic cable car turnaround and Union Square, The Huntington is the ideal point of departure for any sight-seeing adventure. With award-winning Nob Hill Spa, an indoor pool with a sweeping cityscape backdrop, and renowned chef Gloria Ciccarone-Nehls’ Big 4 Restaurant, your time at the hotel is equally well spent.
“The reviews you read in high praise of this hotel are correct. When you want to pull out all the stops and splurge on something high-end that still feels personal, this is your place.”
“We absolutely loved it here. I can not say enough about the room with a beautiful view of Grace Cathedral, the pool with sweeping views of the city, the Nob Hill location, the ease of parking and walking to just about anywhere …”
“Amazing customer service, impeccably clean and large rooms, old school charm, fantastic hotel bar … and beautiful spa and pool. When you stay here, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back into time, in a great way.”
http://travel.aol.com AOL Travel got to experience first hand the high-tech amenities that the new Aria Resort & Casino has to offer. The Aria is the showcase of the new CityCenter in Las Vegas.
16 restaurants, 10 bars and nightclubs, and a wealth of entertainment
Located in the heart of The Strip
At just over two years old, ARIA has already become a luxurious trend-setter in Las Vegas’ CityCenter. Embodying the very essence of the city—culinary prowess, exhilarating entertainment, seductive nightlife, and the swankiest suites—this LEED Gold-certified wonderland rises far above the competition.
Foodies rejoice—eateries from some of the world’s most famous chefs dot the resort, including Chef Masa Takayama’s barMASA and Michael Mina’s AMERICAN FISH. Once you’ve pampered your palate, give your body a corresponding treat at The Spa & Salon at ARIA. This will leave you primped and ready for the rest of your night, where intimate lounges, high-energy clubs, and shows (like Cirque du Soleil®’s Viva ELVIS™) await.
Unparalleled in its personalized accents, each of ARIA’s guest rooms and suites are the perfect haven to retreat to when you decide to drop the curtain on the party. Dive into awe-inspiring views of The Strip from your sprawling Corner Suite or Deluxe Room and indulge in an almost endless array of amenities, from touch-screen room controls to custom furniture.

Does the retro-chic fashion and glam of Mad Men make you swoon? Then it’s obvious you should vacay in a beyond first-class spot worthy of Don Draper and Roger Sterling—in other words, Riviera Resort & Spa.
Opened in 1959, the Riviera instantly became a go-to hotspot for celebrities and socialites seeking the ultimate Southern California getaway—and things haven’t changed much since then. Gorgeous weather and luxurious guest rooms sporting pool, garden, and mountain vistas make days spent cultivating the perfect shade of bronze or relaxing with on-site spa treatments even sweeter.

Escape to a Greek island in style at Aqua Blu. Tanning on the white-sand shores of the Aegean; a Turkish Hamman; pampering spa therapies—running away never felt so good. From your sea-view room, inhale the calm and let the cares of your stateside life fade away.
How many shades of blue are there? Don’t know? We’ll ask again when you get back from Greece. From the cool blue of the hotel pool to the the vibrant sea beyond, you’ll understand why it’s the only color on the flag. Take a break from beating the sun and come inside for a dip in the hotel’s indoor pool. Thanks to Aqua Blu’s little luxuries, you might just need to extend your stay.

CMR 2012 is a unique hospitality concept, part habitation, part yacht and part submarine, totally self-sufficient energy generator, non-polluting and in unison with its natural surroundings.
CMR 2012 has been designed like a luxury yacht and a luxury hotel suite, with a fully submerged observation bulb because the majority of people are fascinated by photographing exotic fishes, dolphins, sharks and marine turtle.
