Amangiri

Rising from 600 acres of luminous desert at the edge of the Grand Staircase–Escalante, Amangiri is Aman's most dramatic American address — a study in how architecture can honour landscape rather than compete with it. Concrete pavilions, sand-toned and low-slung, emerge from ancient mesas as if carved by the same forces that shaped the surrounding canyons. The 25,000-square-foot Aman Spa wraps around a freestanding rock formation, with its iconic stepped pool reflecting sky and sandstone in equal measure. Suites open onto private terraces and plunge pools overlooking the vast desert panorama. Guided slot-canyon hikes, Via Ferrata climbs, and hot-air balloon flights anchor an adventure-wellness philosophy unique among ultra-luxury resorts.

Golden Door

Since 1958, Golden Door has been America's most iconic destination spa — a 600-acre Japanese-inspired sanctuary in the foothills north of San Diego. Limited to just 40 guests per week, the all-inclusive programme is built around personalised fitness, nutrient-dense organic cuisine from their own farms, bathhouse rituals, and evening cultural programming. The ryokan-inspired architecture, koi ponds, bamboo groves, and meditation gardens create a world apart from the everyday.
