The Lafayette Hotel & Swim Club
San Diego
Fontainebleau Las Vegas
The historic Lafayett e Hotel & Swim Club reopened this year aſt er
a $31 million upgrade by Post Company. The 139-room hotel-a
callback to Hollywood's heyday-is a lesson in maximalism, with
ornate details, animal print patt erns, and silk fringe. Among the many
amenities (with more to open next year) is the Gutt er, a two-lane
bowling alley and game room that nods to steel tycoon Henry Frick's
personal bowling alley in the basement of the Frick Museum.

At ULUM Moab, the debut property for glamping pioneer Under Canvas'
new brand, 50 suite tents are integrated into the desert landscape that
surrounds the resort. The luxurious, safari-style lodgings are bedecked
with natural woods, woven rugs, and polished concrete to mirror the
aesthetic of Utah's canyon country. Guests are also invited to socialize in
the light-fi lled lobby or dine al fresco on the resort's terrace.

In need of a refresh, Mii Amo wellness retreat recently underwent a twoyear,
$40 million overhaul. The revitalization included expanding the
property with the addition of Hummingbird restaurant, seven new casitas,
a bi-level movement studio, more spa facilities, and new outdoor spaces
for guests to connect with nature. A standout is the living room, formerly
home to the indoor pool, which now boasts a sunken lounge resplendent in
terracott a hues that nod to the surrounding red rocks.
