My 10 Favorite Resorts 2024: Ultra-Luxe to Hidden Gems
Want to see inside the world’s wildest resorts and hotels, including 2 Aman resorts, secluded treehouses, and a floating camp? 2024 was the year I explored over 200 hotels and stayed at 70. In this video, I’m counting down my 10 favorite resorts, from ultra-luxe hideaways to hidden gems, showcasing jaw-dropping design, idyllic settings, and unforgettable experiences. These aren’t just places to stay-they’re destinations in themselves, with glamping tents that redefine comfort, beachfront eco-casitas, and even a restored 15th-century fort. This list has something for everyone who loves unique stays and great design.
From Costa Rica’s off-grid luxury at Pacuare Lodge to the unparalleled elegance of Amanbagh in India, each resort on this list offers something extraordinary. Picture yourself sipping cocktails on a hot tub deck 30 feet from the Pacific, or stargazing in the Rajasthani desert from one of the most stunning pools I’ve ever seen. And yes, the service at Aman-I-Khas is so good, I barely left the resort. Whether it’s incredible architecture, breathtaking natural surroundings, or a vibe that’s pure magic, these stays have earned their spots on my 2024 favorites.
Explore the full videos for these 10 incredible stays and discover why they’re the best of the best:

You can go around us - it won’t save you any money. This hotel commission fee supports us as we travel the world looking for the best places.

    Wow; seems like somewhere I need to go. BTW, "most unique" makes no sense; something is either unique or it isn't, just like someone is either pregnant or they're not. If you mean _distinct,_ _rare,_ or _different,_ just say that. Also, the abbreviation for _square feet_ is "sq ft", not "SF" (which would mean San Francisco, or something like that), while the square metre uses a symbol of m², not "SQM" (which would mean siemens-quettamolar).

    Do not rent a surfboard from this shop, you may not get your deposit back. When I returned the surfboard, The guy inspected it and noticed a very small resin break on the nose of the board, which he thought was a “ding”that needed to be completely repaired. Even he sucked the damage with his mouth and found that no water or air came out, he still thought it was a “ding”that needed to be repaired. He used the flashlight on this wound and thought that light had penetrated, so it was “ding”???I could hardly take a picture of this wound .but the guy said that theirs board needs to be kept in perfect condition, so it needs to be “ding”However, when we rented this surfboard, we found that the more serious scratches on the board had not been repaired. There was no breakage in the fiberglass, no leaking minor damage, cost us $40, however, when I went to the next store to return my short board, we showed the pictures explaining the situation and they told us it was absolutely can't be called a ding, let alone repair it in a ding way. After that, I asked two more surf shops and they told me that was ridiculous! Never rent a board from someone who never surf! 0:16

    The worst hotel mangement ever, hotel manager is like a child, whatever they do doesnt matter he is like " we didnt do anything" No hot water in the shower, waited 6 hours to get fixed and worked only once was cold again later on, we could only take shower with warm water once. They almost blinded my wife, had a construction going on at the restaurant area at 8 pm (dinner time) very professional! a piece of wood bursted and came to my wife's eye. Almost blinded her and what they said? Put some water, pain will go away! They took our luggages from the room and we went to the reception, guess what? A wheel of our luggage was on the floor. They broke the wheel of our luggage, what they said ? " We didnt do anything". When we checked in, the guy at the reception said that we will have the "full experience", we curtainly have. it is like hell in heaven, only area is beautiful, mangement is by far the WORST. You can stay at another hotel on that beach cause the beach is beautiful but NOT AT BE TULUM, THE WORST HOTEL MANAGEMENT EVER.

    Really loved your videos and felt great that someone made a pointed out those plastic bottles (the point about sustainability), most hotels and resorts in India have a plastic bottle system, but due to the high criticism they are applying a more sustainable method.

      @SwankGuide the services of Aman would be better but overall tuli veer bag is much more beautiful over-all . If you're ever planning on visiting normal range resorts then definitely do visit !

    I stayed here a few years ago. I love the Place des Vosges and have rented apartments on 3 sides of the square. I like this hotel because it is so un-hotel-like. It seems like staying in someone's amazing house. That's why there are books and magazines everywhere and you can enjoy any of the food and drink that's there. Make yourself at home. I heard someone didn't like that there is no real lobby or staff running around. They should stay at the Bristol. This is much cooler. So, I suggest this hotel for people who want to stay in the Marais. Most people don't realize the Pavillon de la Reine hotel is not really ON the square, but this is.
