3. Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas
Overall, visitors love the quiet atmosphere and family-friendliness of this oasis on the Strip. For one, this luxury Las Vegas hotel is a gaming-free refuge. And even though this Four Seasons property sits on the top five floors of Mandalay Bay’s tower, it has its own express elevators and the private check-in desk is said to have some of the speediest (and friendliest) staff in town. Once you’ve arrived in your room, you’ll be welcomed by art deco decor, flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers and impressive vistas of the Las Vegas skyline. Some recent travelers complained that being relegated to the south end of the Strip keeps them far from the action, but most visitors enjoyed the seclusion. In addition to its tranquil atmosphere, the hotel also boasts an outdoor pool, a fitness center, a spa, two on-site restaurants and three bars. What’s more, guests are granted access to the Mandalay Bay’s dozens of restaurants, in addition to its pools. And if you’re traveling with youngsters, you’ll be happy to know the hotel offers a host of kid-friendly amenities, including a welcome gift and childrens menus in the on-site restaurants.
4. The American Club
Tucked into a cove of Kohler, Wisconsin, The American Club – part of the Destination Kohler Resort – sits about 55 miles north of Milwaukee. Rooms here are furnished with classic wood furnishings, down comforters and minibars. And guests praise the nearby Whistling Straits and the Blackwolf Run golf courses, saying their beauty rivals the rugged courses of Scotland. Visitors also applaud the five on-site dining options, including The Wisconsin Room restaurant for its tasty breakfast. Guests can pamper themselves at the Kohler Waters Spa with a wide array of treatments and services. There’s also an enormous sports facility that features pools, tennis courts, the aforementioned golf courses and more.
