The Wickaninnish Inn stands on an outcrop between the Pacific Ocean, Chesterman Beach and a forest of giant evergreens. Artists, including renowned wood carver Henry Nolla, designed elements of its two buildings with the aim of blending art, nature and culture. You can even meet local artists at the onsite carving shed. Each room has a fireplace and picture window offering views of the coastline. Set off on a day of sea kayaking, or to see whales, sea lions or bears around Clayoquot Sound. Relax with a soothing spa treatment after your day's adventures. From November to March, you can admire mighty Pacific storms, watching from the comfort of your guest room as waves come crashing ashore.

In the southeast of Sri Lanka lies the Wild Coast Tented Lodge — a haven of twenty eight cocoon-like tents placed at the edge of the jungle and beach. Together they form the shape of a leopard's paw, a symbol of the Yala National Park whose wonders you can discover alongside the camp’s naturalist guides on a safari adventure. At the outposts, the suites overlook the Indian Ocean. Each arched structure, stretched in canvas and bearing stylish colonial expedition decor, is dotted with a private watering hole. Entwined in bamboo, the main building resembles a rock along the shore. It houses the bar, library and restaurant where a modern take on traditional Sri Lankan cuisine is served.

Nestled among the bucolic valleys and pristine lakes of the Litchfield Hills, Winvian is a unique hotel complex with 45 hectares of lush grounds bordered by centuries-old maple trees. A team of 15 architects designed the 18 original chalets and one suite, each with its own special design and atmosphere. Guests can choose to stay in a two-level treehouse 10 meters off the ground, a lighthouse in the middle of the forest, or perhaps a lodge built around a massive oak tree. In addition to the spa, hot air balloon rides, horseback riding, fly fishing, race car driving and other unforgettable experiences are available, all just two hours from the buzz of New York and Boston.

Standing on the heights of Beijing, China, the Xitan Hotel welcomes guests to a stunning natural setting. Spread over two hectares of an ancient village built towards the end of the Ming Dynasty, the atypical architecture of this luxury hotel is inspired by its amazing surroundings. In harmony with the environment and encircled by water and mountains, its zen atmosphere is immediately captivating. Each of the 38 rooms and courtyards has its own concept, designed to combine Chinese tradition, modernism and a sense of purity. From every angle — from the living spaces and tea room to the gym — the Xitan Hotel enjoys magnificent views of the towering peaks and lush vegetation all around. There are few places in the world that so thoroughly invite contemplation and the freedom to let go. A visit to the hotel’s spa only confirms this as it opens the senses to the great beyond. Chef Jun Wang’s cuisine at the gourmet restaurant The House of Rong is both creative and rooted in the local terroir, making it the perfect complement to a stay at this restorative, other-worldly place.

Simply cross the threshold of Yihe Mansions and you will be taken back to the Republic of China’s past, a time when the country’s leaders built their residences in the shade of the maple trees on Yihe Road in Nanjing, the capital of ten dynasties. Its stylish private villas have been magnificently restored and now offer sophisticated, deeply historical rooms and suites, spas, restaurants and even their own museums. Extremely spacious, they boast soft light and greenery throughout; the decor is an elegant blend of traditional artefacts and contemporary objects, with fine wood and precious fabrics. This is a serene environment where you can truly appreciate the beauty of China’s culture and history.

Wan Guo Chun Chinese Restaurant

Hotel and restaurant in town.

This fine early 20th-century mansion on the banks of Lake Annecy is a rhapsody of blue and gold: the blue of the façade and the lake viewed from the terrace meets the golden yellow of the wood cladding the walls and the sun that shines into the guestrooms through the large picture windows. This house offers an intimate setting with a warm, cosy ambiance. And all around is resplendent nature, as celebrated by the Chef's cuisine. Since 2010, Yoann Conte, following in the footsteps of Marc Veyrat, has drawn his inspiration from the passing seasons and their plants to reinterpret local cuisine, serving, for example, fish from the lake with fresh herbs and alpine flowers.
