Sand dunes and seascapes, plus culture, food and wine? Your wish is granted at these two unique retreats.

PEACEFUL SANCTUARIES THAT DELIVER PRIVACY, STYLE, AND SOPHISTICATION TOP THE MOST DISCERNING TRAVELERS’ LET’S-GO-NOW LIST. And if you’re torn between sea and sand, these two chic resorts deliver the best of both. Decision fatigue may be at its finest as you explore two dreamy properties set amidst enchanting landscapes.

Amangiri (Canyon Point, UT)

Quietly tucked away amid 600 acres in the Grand Circle of National Parks and Monuments, just 25 minutes from the nearest town of Page, Arizona, Amangiri celebrates Utah’s famous red rock country—the site of countless Hollywood films and artistic inspiration. Utah’s Grand Staircase-Escalante paints the desert in changing daily hues. Mornings are awash in ochre and orange while sunsets are ablaze with pink-and-red skies. SUITE GPS: Choose from 34 suites, a four-bedroom Mesa Home, or 10 tented pavilions as part of the new Camp Sarika. Undulating dunes, endless plateaus, and floor-toceiling desert views are the design canvas, while white stone floors, concrete walls, natural timbers and blackened steel add singular style. Each suite has an outdoor lounge and fireplace, while some feature a private pool or roof terrace. DISCOVER: No trip to Amangiri would be complete without a visit to its surrounding parks, including the Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, and Monument Valley Tribal Park, home to the Navajo Nation. Discover the plateau on horseback; as you head into the desert with an Amangiri wrangler you’ll explore a labyrinth of ethereal ridges and canyons. EAT: After working up an appetite while desert hopping, refuel with sustainable, seasonal dishes inspired by the culinary heritage of the Navajo and American Southwest. The Dining Room is anchored in an open-plan kitchen and wood-fired oven. Opt for the over-the-top, four-course, winepaired Spirit of the Journey tasting menu, which pays homage to the five tribes of the region.

Zemi Beach House (Anguilla)

Anguilla has topped the list of highend beachcombers for decades, but now, after an extensive rebound postHurricane Irma, Anguilla is looking better than ever. Expect plenty to discover, but most notable is worldfamous Shoal Bay Beach, the backdrop to this posh property. Hugging six gorgeous acres next to Anguilla’s Fountain Cavern National Park, Zemi Beach House marries modern proclivities with only-in-Anguilla experiences. SUITE GPS: A collection of eight oceanfront two- and three-bedroom suites exude Caribbean contemporary style. Lounge on rooftop terraces, unwind in private pools, or simply take in the kaleidoscope of ocean blues. The glamourous, three-bedroom Penthouse Suite is located on the highest floor

and has a private furnished rooftop terrace with a private plunge pool, large living room, fully equipped kitchen, and guest bathroom.

DISCOVER: With nature as its muse, the Zemi Thai House Spa is nestled in a 300-year-old Thai House and features the island’s only hammam. And the sea, of course, is your daily siren. The famous Shoal Bay East is a one-and-a-half mile stretch of pink sand that invites unforgettable snorkeling, kayaking, and swimming. EAT: Fresh-off-the-boat seafood is the central theme at the two restaurants, in addition to imported delicacies, local herbs, and fresh produce. Dive into Caribbean flavors (lobster mac and cheese is a must) at the seasonally inspired, high-end Stone restaurant, or feast on the daily catch, crab cakes, and tuna tartar at the more casual, beachfront 20 Knots. Nightcaps are taken in the elegant Rhum Room, which shelves a dizzying array of small-batch rums.
