7 New Hotels

Brush Creek Ranch

Saratoga, WY, USA

The all-inclusive Brush Creek Ranch stands on some 30,000 acres in south-central Wyoming. The range of experiences on offer is broad, from tending the ranch’s goats to spa treatments to skiing the private slopes. A variety of rooms and cabins see the homestead’s original buildings transformed into luxury lodgings.

NUMO Mykonos Boutique Resort

Mykonos, Greece

Small-scale, retro-chic, and environmentally friendly, Numo Mykonos is a refreshing antidote to the island’s more party-focused hotels. Housed in a beautifully restored historic building on a gently sloping hill above Kalafati Beach, it embodies barefoot luxury, adding a minimalist Cycladic twist and ’60s- and ’70s-inspired glamour.

Adoro Hotel Boutique

Mérida, Mexico

As more travelers to the Yucatán Peninsula venture off the well-worn path between Cancún and Tulum, the hotel scene continues to level up in destinations like the capital city of Mérida. Take Adoro Hotel Boutique, a stylish adults-only hotel inside a restored colonial mansion a short stroll from the main plaza.

Van Oys Maastricht Retreat

Maastricht, Netherlands

Quiet luxury might have become an overused phrase, but it’s hard to find a better way to describe Van Oys Maastricht Retreat. Sophisticated guest rooms blend natural stone walls and exposed beams with muted earthy shades, and in the higher category rooms, private balconies look onto the surrounding gardens.

FORTH Hotel Atlanta

Atlanta, GA, USA

Atlanta’s historic Old Fourth Ward is known more for being a culinary hotspot than a hotel hotspot. That’s changing thanks to Forth Hotel. Behind a strikingly geometric glass and concrete facade, the interior aesthetic mixes minimalist and romantic with bold floral wallpaper, dark wood furnishings, and sleek bathrooms.

Hotel Vila Selvagem

Pontal de Maceió, Brazil

Not all Brazilian beaches were created equal, which stands to reason — it’s one of the longest coastlines in the world. But lots of locals say the best ones are in the northeast. That’s where you’ll find Hotel Vila Selvagem, an elegant but down-to-earth boutique hotel in the fishing village of Pontal de Maceió.

I Dammusi di Borgo Cala Creta

Lampedusa, Italy

Stepping into Hotel i Dammusi feels like slipping into another time. Scattered across Lampedusa’s windswept landscape, these traditional stone cottages, built in classic Arab-influenced style, have white domes, dry-stone walls, and slender windows. Life here moves slowly, from shaded patios to private gardens.
