Hidden Hotel Wonders to Explore Now
OUTRIGGER Maldives Maafushivaru Resort Maafushivaru Island, South Ari Atoll, Maldives
A bucket-list destination for travel enthusiasts, honeymooners, or anyone seeking a once-in-a-lifetime getaway, the Maldives is an experience like no other. A stay at OUTRIGGER Maldives Maafushivaru Resort offers the best of this island paradise, with luxurious accommodations, exceptional amenities, and a range of exciting excursions to fill your days with adventure. Whether you crave high-octane thrills or a peaceful day on the water, there's something for every type of traveler. Maafushivaru is one of the best places in the world to dive with the majestic whale shark, but you could also catch some air with parasailing, wakeboarding, and windsurfing, or catch a big one with full and half-day big game fishing expeditions. Hop on a jet ski and set off on a private tour to explore a sandy atoll or access prime snorkeling spots. As the day winds down, indulge in a private sunset cruise with canapés and champagne, before enjoying cinema under the stars on the beach—capping off a perfect day in paradise on your own private island in the southern tip of Ari Atoll.
If you're looking for a stay with a rooftop pool and incredible onsite dining on Florida's Emerald Coast, there's (quite literally) only one place to go—Hotel Effie. Located in sunny Sandestin, on the shores of beautiful Choctawhatchee Bay, this luxury hotel features a full-service spa for all your pampering needs, access to four championship golf courses, and a private shuttle service to miles of white sand beaches on the Gulf of Mexico. Foodies are in for a treat with four food and beverage establishments including Ovide, a delightful elegant dining venue that combines classic Gulf Coast flavors and southern culinary traditions. Start your day at Ovide with classics like biscuits (made in-house!) and gravy, or grab a gourmet bite to-go at Sweetbay Coffee. If you're spending the day by the pool, snack on muffuletta bites or ahi tuna poke from the shade of your private cabana from Ara Rooftop Lounge. While we recommend tucking into a meal in the dining room at Ovide (shrimp and grits or a cast iron half roasted chicken, anyone?), you can have it delivered to your room to enjoy in the ultimate privacy. Looking to stay for more than a few nights? Save on your luxurious stay when you book 3+ nights.
Elliot Park Hotel, Autograph Collection Minneapolis, MN
Downtown Minneapolis might not be the place you would expect to find a Scandinavian-inspired hotel, but Elliot Park Hotel, Autograph Collection is just that. The luxury boutique hotel is newly constructed, a modern fixture in Minneapolis' historic Elliot Park neighborhood since 2018. The Danish concept of hygge, which has gained popularity in Western culture in recent years, is at the heart of the hotel's identity. A philosophy rooted in warmth, comfort, and togetherness, hygge, informs the hotel's cozy yet minimal design aesthetic. Upon stepping into the lobby, you're greeted by rich neutral tones, plush leather seating, warm metal finishes, and a crackling modern fireplace. Though the concept of minimalism is common in Scandinavian design, the warmth of hygge softens it into something that's distinctly simple and modern yet homey and welcoming. The 168 guest rooms and suites are spacious, featuring modern Scandinavian décor, large walk-in showers with separate baths, Keurig coffee makers, and views of the city from generous windows.

The hotel also has a state-of-the-art gym and a resort-style pool offering drinks and light bites overlooking the water.
