We’ve never known a time when beautiful views, Champagne, and an incredible spa couldn’t fix almost anything. @amangiri

But Amangiri is more than a beautiful desert escape. One of the things that makes the property especially memorable is the way wellness is built into the experience.

The spa draws heavily from the surrounding landscape and focuses on restoration, movement, and slowing down. Think treatments, quiet spaces, wellness experiences, and a setting that makes you want to disconnect from everything else for a few days.

And if Amangiri is on your bucket list, here are a few things I’d keep in mind when planning:

* Give yourself enough time to actually enjoy the property. This is not a destination I would rush through.
* Build spa time into your itinerary before you arrive instead of treating it as an afterthought.
* Leave room for unstructured time. Some of the best moments here are simply enjoying the pool, the landscape, and the stillness.
* This is the kind of trip where the hotel itself is the destination, so I would plan fewer off-property activities than I normally would.

For me, that is what makes a great luxury hotel: not just beautiful rooms, but an experience that gives you a reason to stay on property.

Eating With Erica has several exciting destinations coming up that we can’t wait to share with you.
