Amangiri
Utah, U.S.A.
Iconic architecture and elemental luxury in the heart of the desert
Set in a sculpted valley in southern Utah, Amangiri feels like a mirage made real. Carved into the rust-red rock, its linear stone architecture is both bold and serene – the kind of place where every view looks like it’s been framed. It’s a masterclass in minimalism, with slick concrete, sandstone and leather forming a perfect backdrop to the drama of the landscape.
The suites are pared-back but deeply comfortable, with fireplaces, king beds, desert views and deep-soak baths you’ll never want to leave. Some have private pools; all offer access to the kind of stillness and scale you rarely find elsewhere.
