The Warehouse Hotel, Singapore - Secret Societies, Opium Dens, and Cocktails That Map the Past

In the 1890s, this building on Robertson Quay was ground zero for Singapore's red-light district, a hub for opium dens, gambling houses, and Chinese secret societies who demanded 36 sacred oaths from new recruits. The street was known in Hokkien as "Chiu Long Lo" – Spirits Shed Street – after …

Naot Farm - Desert Dreams and Goat Cheese

Most people fantasize about escaping to a simpler life, but Lea and Gadi Nahimov actually did it. Tucked away in the Negev Desert near Sde Boker, their working goat farm has become a refuge where the biggest decision of your day might be which artisanal cheese to try next, and …

Sacred Sands - Straw Walls, Cast-Iron Tubs, and the Darkest Sky in California

The walls at Sacred Sands are packed with straw. Not metaphorically - straw bale construction means compacted bales stacked, framed, and finished in terracotta clay, resulting in walls so thick they function as their own acoustic system, insulation layer, and fire barrier all at once. It is an uncommon way …

The Lindis - A Lodge Built to Masquerade as 10,000-Year-Old Glacial Debris

You won't see The Lindis until you're practically standing on it. That's exactly the point. This eight-room lodge sits so low and still in New Zealand's Ahuriri Valley that it might as well be part of the moraine itself – the geological rubble left behind when glaciers retreated 10,000 years …

There are 26 pyramid-shaped villas arranged around a thermal lake in Fort Myers, Florida. The water bubbling up from 30 meters below the surface smells faintly of sulfur, changes color with the seasons, and is loaded with magnesium, potassium, calcium, and selenium. And yes, people keep coming back. Pyramids in …

Minaret Station - New Zealand's Helicopter-Only Alpine Lodge Where Everything Else Drops Away

There are two ways to arrive at Minaret Station, and both involve a helicopter. You can land directly at the lodge, or you can ask the pilot to drop you halfway up the mountain so you can hike the rest of the way through woodland and past streams, arriving just …

Domaine des Etangs, Auberge Collection - Deep in the Charente, a Medieval Castle Reinvents Itself

Somewhere in the Charente countryside of southwest France, on a 1,000-hectare (2,500-acre) estate of forests, lakes, and open pastureland, there is a tennis court floating on a pond. There is also a 13th-century castle tower where you can sleep beneath a glass ceiling and look up at the stone ribs …

Hotel Rangá - Seven Continents, One River, One Polar Bear

There's a polar bear in the lobby. The Africa suite has a straw ceiling made from locally grown Icelandic wheat. The owner - a former seafood industry titan who spent 200-plus nights a year in hotels - will pour you a glass of schnapps and tell you where to find …
