"An iconic resort for oenophiles, Solage recently underwent a $30 million dollar reno, enhancing its already luxurious Napa Valley digs. Individual bungalows feature a sophisticated urban charm. Outdoor patios, showers, and fire pits are perfect for cozying up with the one you love while taking in the breathtaking vistas of the Palisades and Mayacamas Mountains. Enjoy farm-fresh local favorites at Solbar, or visit the hotel's 20,000-square-foot spa, which showcases Calistoga mud and mineral water therapies—hallmarks of the area since the 19th century. Enjoy couples’ treatments, lounge by the pool, or simply sip the region’s wine varietals while enjoying the inspired scenery."

"When I'm in town, I never miss enjoying a michelada with tamarindo on Sundays in La Lagunilla, the city's famous antiques market."

"All the silk and splendor of a bygone era star in this 1910 art nouveau hotel. Rooms are resplendent in plush glory and gilded glamour—each either facing the lake or the garden. Water is the main attraction here, so you might park yourselves at one of the three pools or pull up a lounge chair at the private lakeside beach. The hotel has two classic boats (as well as captains) to cruise you through the crystal waters on a cozy trip for two."

"A walled complex at the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, Kasbah Tamadot was discovered (and reimagined) by Sir Richard Branson while on a ballooning expedition. Its 28 rooms feature décor unique to the destination and private plunge pools. Moroccan, African, and international flavors are served up at the restaurant, and the hotel bar is housed in a Berber tent. Try the traditional hammam at the spa for a taste of tradition. Landscaped gardens and interior courtyards are meant for meandering, and before you know it, you’ve surrendered to the oasis all around."

"In Oaxaca, my first stop is Alfonsina. I go there for the mole—it's a must."

"A visit to see El Árbol del Tule, the widest tree in the world, is a must for me. It's a natural wonder that sits in the church grounds of Santa María del Tule."

"... Maximo Bistrot..."

"Somewhere between the rugged reefs of North West Point Marine National Park and a lush tropical forest lies Amanyara, a remote parcel of paradise. Here, luxurious pavilion living comes in the form of 36 timber dwellings with floor-to-ceiling glass doors that lead to private pools, shady terraces, and freestanding tubs. And it all centers around an infinity pool crafted from volcanic rock. To take the romance factor up a notch, opt for dinner prepped by the executive chef in a remote cove or on the hotel’s private beach."

"If you’re the adventurous sort, San Camp is for you. The off-the-grid haven is a bucket-list destination that’s perfect for a honeymoon. Situated on the edge of the Nwetwe Pan in Botswana’s Makgadikgadi, a salt pan in the middle of the dry savanna, this seven-tent retreat is a feast for every sense. Here, a billowy tent is your home in the middle of nowhere—where all you have is time with that special someone and the wildlife around you. Take game drives at night to see the ecosystem come alive, or travel across the salt-crusted earth by quad-bike. The accommodations are minimalist meets luxury, and chef-prepped food will not leave you hungry."

"If ever there was a place to be swept off your feet, Casa Angelina, high on the cliffs of the Amalfi Coast, is it. Every room has a view of the Mediterranean in all its majesty. Minimalists will appreciate the chic white-on-white palette that lets the seascape and green mountains beyond each of the 42 rooms take center stage. Bask the day away at the hotel’s private beach, take a dip in the pool, and when day turns to night, have an intimate alfresco dinner for two with fresh Mediterranean fare at the rooftop restaurant. All you have to focus on is the starry night sky, the endless sea, and each other."
