Located in Cambodia, this luxury resort is housed in King Sihanouk’s former guest residence in 1962. Rooms at the Amansara are open and spacious, letting in plenty of light through floor-to-ceiling glass doors; it’s not surprising that this has been a longtime destination for the world-famous. Dark wood furniture and white decorations, with Cambodian products peppered throughout, complete the 24 open-plan suites. Twelve of these suites include private plunge pools! Rumor has it that suite 4 offers the biggest courtyard for guests to enjoy.

While a luxury resort, the Amansara is not showy or glitzy. Rather, the more modern fixtures subtly complement the intricate architecture, leaving an all-around feeling of tranquility. Most of the communal areas include large outside spaces, with sunrise yoga sessions offered for those who truly wish to connect with nature. There is also a lovely spa where guests can try a traditional Khmer mask to stimulate the senses. This resort allows guests to feel as if they are in a house all their own, with a bonus of pampering.

If all this relaxing has you hungry, enjoy a meal in the resort’s sleek, circular restaurant, once used as the king’s screening room. Dishes, like the banana blossom chicken salad, quail egg soup, and black sticky rice with mango, all make use of the very best local ingredients. Choose between other Khmer favorites such as fish amok curry or Western prawn risotto.

Amansara Resort Siem Reap is close to shops, dining, and Siem Reap's nightlife.

Ulaman Eco Luxury Resort - A Bamboo Sanctuary In The Tabanan Jungle

There's a version of "eco resort" that means a few solar panels and a sign about towel reuse. Ulaman is not that. This is a place where the walls are literally compressed earth, the staircases are woven bamboo, and there's a hand-carved wine cave hidden behind a stone wall that …

Copacabana Palace - The Grand Dame Still Throwing the Best Party on the Beach

A hotel got shot in the crossfire of a presidential scandal, hosted the first screen pairing of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, and somehow still manages to feel like the calmest place on one of the world's loudest beaches. That's Copacabana Palace in a nutshell: a century-old Art Deco block …

Auberge Aux 4 Vents - The Swiss Hotel Where You Can Take a Bath Outdoors - From the Second Floor

Between Fribourg's medieval rooftops and a park full of century-old beeches, a renovated 17th-century manor is doing something quietly remarkable. Auberge aux 4 Vents is not a boutique hotel in the algorithmic sense - all reclaimed wood and oat milk. It is something older and stranger: a patrician country manor …

Millions of people pour into Switzerland's Jungfrau region every year, and almost all of them stick to the same handful of villages and viewpoints. Berghotel Obersteinberg is not one of them. To get here you climb 850 vertical meters (2,790 feet) above Stechelberg on foot, since no road, cable car, …

There are wildlife encounters, and then there's watching a family of wild elephants amble straight through a hotel reception on their way to raid a mango tree. At Mfuwe Lodge, in Zambia's South Luangwa National Park, this isn't a staged photo opportunity or a rare fluke. It's an annual event …

In the far southeastern corner of Utah, where the Colorado Plateau breaks apart into red rock and silence, a resort sits pressed against 60-meter (200-foot) sandstone cliffs as though it has always been there.

Dundgovi Province in southern Mongolia is not on most people's radar, which is precisely the point. The Gobi Desert here is vast, dry, and almost completely silent - a semi-arid steppe that nomads have traditionally called the "Steppe to Get Lost." Gobi Caravanserai sits in the middle of it, next …
