Best in the World

Conde Nast just came out with their annual "Best in the World" issue.

I recommend you pick it up and keep it as a reference. No, I don't agree with all of it (luxury and service is as subjective as beauty), but it is a great resource guide if you're looking for ideas on places to travel or rest your weary head.

This year the issue lists the top 75 mainland US Resorts and the top 20 Mainland US small resorts. I will give a small tasting of each just to whet your appetite.

Mainland Resorts
1. The Broadmoor, Clorado (#3)
2. The Stein Eriksen, Utah (#10)
3. The Breakers, Florida (#16)
4. The Phoenician, Arizona (#19)
5. The Renaissance Vinoy, Florida (#68)

Mainland Small Resorts
1. Charlotte Inn (Martha's Vineyard)(#5)
2. San Ysidro, Santa Barbara (#9)
3. Amangani, Jackson Hole (#10)
4. Inn at Langley, Washington(#13)
5. Hermosa Inn, Paradise Valley, AZ. (#20)

You can try anything on the lists and you won't be disappointed. If you have your favorite USA hotels let us know what you recommend.

We love to hear from you.
