Il Palazzo

Where: Venice, Italy

Villa Feltrinelli

Blantyre

Where: Lenox, Massachusetts
What's to Love: Very old-school, filled with antiques and acres of chintz. The rooms are huge, with four-poster beds, fireplaces, and great movie selections. In the winter, they freeze the tennis court for ice skating and serve oysters on snowballs around a fire.
Good to know: Jacket and tie are required for dinner, and beforehand you sip champagne and eat canapes in front of the fire. The dining room is hard to describe: very dark, very ornate, very intimate. Like where Batman would go if he had a big date.

Post Ranch Inn

Where: Big Sur, California
What's to Love: Everything — from the infinity pool overlooking the Pacific surrounded by Redwoods to the fact that they don't allow kids or visitors around the property. It's perfectly tranquil. Some ocean suites have their own hot tub sitting on the cliff. Oh, and no televisions.

Good to Know: The treatment to get at Sense, A Rosewood Spa, is the one where you're in the hammock and the therapist fixes everything.

GoldenEye Hotel and Resort

Where: Oracabessa Bay, Jamaica

Cotton House

Where: Mustique, The Grenadines

Verana

Where: Yelapa, Mexico
What's to Love: Beautiful, extremely undeveloped place. Enveloping, outstanding, but unobtrusively designed rustic-modern spaces.

Maroma

Where: Riviera Maya, Mexico
What's to Love: Beautiful, boutique hotel on Caribbean waters steps from the beach with the kindest, most personal staff. Paradise: a four-hour flight from NYC.

Hotel El Garzon

Where: Garzon, Uruguay
What's to Love: Francis Mallmann's little hotel? If your soul doesn't turn to romance here, you should get a refund on your genitalia.
Good to Know: Seeing as Mallmann is one of South America's most celebrated chefs, it makes sense that food and wine — from boutique bodega Finca La Anita — are covered in the room rate. Dig in.
