Seminole Hard Rock & Casino
This AAA Four Diamond-rated hotel is just 30 minutes from Miami and boasts 500 music-themed rooms, a deluxe spa and even a lagoon-style pool. When you’re not soaking up the sun or dining at one of the many fine restaurants, head to the casino (that’s where we’ll be). And should you tire of gaming, the Seminole also has six live music venues, along with a comedy club to keep you entertained for your entire trip.
Poplar Springs
On over 170 acres of lush, green north Virginia countryside, this historic luxury inn offers guests indulgent amenities and spacious suites. At the Inn’s on-site spa treatments such as deep tissue massages and essential oil body scrubs melt away the day’s cares; at the Inn’s Manor House restaurant, tempting New American fare and top-rated wines provide the highest level of dining. Be sure to unwind stretched out on the Inn’s expansive sun deck, then take a dip in the refreshing outdoor saltwater pool.
The Embassy Row Hotel
Located steps from Dupont Circle, the Embassy Row Hotel is a Washington landmark. Alice Roosevelt Longworth, daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt, cut the ribbon at the hotel’s grand opening in 1970. Today the hotel also offers an expansive rooftop terrace—complete with swimming pool and cocktail bar—and a new in-house coffee shop and restaurant. Stop in for a weekend or just a dip in the pool for a cool escape from the bustling city.
Xinalani Resort
The word “xinalani” means “seeds” in pre-Columbian language—and this soothing resort helps its guests grow with an approach to hospitality that emphasizes wellness and holistic health. All-inclusive stays provide guests with morning and afternoon yoga classes and healthful food options in an off-the-grid ambiance. Spend your stay taking surf lessons, exploring the jungle, snorkeling or kayaking. Alternatively, resign yourself to lounging on the beach, relishing a full array of spa treatments and meditation classes, then heading to the signature sweat lodge for even deeper Zen.
