OPEN SESAME
NEW YORK, NEW YORK
Aman, a hotel collection known for its peaceful, holistic havens, is following the success of its 2014 urban launch in Tokyo and is coming to New York. Breathing new life into Manhattan’s iconic Crown Building on 57th Street, it’s set to be one of the city’s hottest addresses. With three restaurants, a jazz club, stunning rooms (each with its own working fireplace) and a super-sized spa, Aman New York will also feature the first urban Aman Residences (half of which have already been snapped up). aman.com/newyork

Wish upon a spa
Adler Spa Resort Sicilia opens in July on the island’s southwest coast, at the edge of the Torres Salsa Nature Reserve. Like its sister properties, it will no doubt work magic on the mind, body and soul. There’s a spa with 15 cabins, an outdoor pool with a hot tub, a sports pool and even a natural lake with a yoga pavilion, plus guided hiking and e-biking tours. adler-resorts.com
FAMILY FAVOURITE
Ikos Resorts kicks o the 2022 season with lots of additions and updates. There’s a fabulous new beachside restaurant at Ikos Oceania in Halkidiki, while Ikos Andalusia, tucked between mountains and sea, is introducing Heroes Village, a state-of-the-art kids’ club with activities galore. For any families with a Ronaldo wannabe, Ikos has expanded its collaboration with Football Escapes, running celebrity-led sessions at both Ikos Olivia and Ikos Andalusia.

Soho House, Brighton
OPEN SESAME
AS THE TRAVEL INDUSTRY BOUNCES BACK, THIS SUMMER SEES A HOST OF HOT NEW HOTEL OPENINGS AND EXCITING ADVENTURES POP UP AROUND THE GLOBE. HERE’S JUST A TASTE OF WHAT’S NEW FOR SUMMER 2022. IT’S TIME TO REIGNITE THE WANDERLUST
URBAN OASIS
Soho House isn’t one to sit on its laurels — even a global pandemic can’t curb its enthusiasm for new openings. 2022 seems to be all about the letter B, with Brighton (pictured), Balham and Bangkok. The most exotic of the trio sees Soho House’s debut into South-East Asia. Located in the vibrant Sukhumvit district, it will be a quiet oasis away from the Bangkok bustle, complete with a beautiful outdoor pool. sohohouse.com
UNDER THE SEA
Pure escapism comes easily when holed up at Six Senses Laamu. One of the Maldives’ furthest–flung luxury outposts, it’s worth travelling those extra nautical miles for the feeling of sheer isolation. A favourite with honeymooners, families should also take note that this summer sees the opening of the Marine Discovery Centre on Sunset Beach. With a special Junior Marine Biology programme, it might just inspire the next David Attenborough.
