          Oh hey there, Red Rocks. Take yourself off the grid, order the house prickly pear margarita and stare out onto the insane landscape surrounding this Arizona resort. Your Adobe casita will be your home base for all of Enchantment’s offerings, from tennis clinics to organic composting and cooking demos. Note: The epic sunsets are must-see.

          Embrace the wide-open Montana surroundings at this authentic working cattle ranch, where views of the Sierra Madre mountain range abound from the 30,000-acre property. Go flyfishing or horseback riding, celebrate with a family-style feast at the outdoor Chuckwagon grill, then snuggle up in your log-cabin-like room.

          Sustainability is a huge focus of the LEED-certified Bardessono Hotel & Spa in Napa Valley’s Yountville, evidenced by the hidden solar panels on the roof and salvaged woods used on property. Book one of 62 comfortable suites for easy access to chef Thomas Keller’s nearby French Laundry and Bouchon Bakery, or enjoy strolling back from a tasting at one of many local wineries within walking distance.
