Amangiri Resort<br />

Utah<br />

Forget the skyscrapers and the seafront cycle<br />

tracks. Here you can breathe the same air that the<br />

Navajo people breathed. The desert has never<br />

been this fascinating. The warm tones of the rocks<br />

at sunset with their orange hues surround this resort<br />

in the heart of the United States. Amangiri<br />

Resort is in the state of Utah but just a few kilometres<br />

away from Four Corners, the meeting point<br />

of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Utah. The<br />

town to look for on the map is Page which is just<br />

25 minutes away by car and the nearest airport is<br />

there. It is an unbeatable location: Grand Canyon,<br />

Bryce Canyon, zion National Park, Glen Canyon,<br />

Grand Staircase - Escalante National Monument,<br />

Mexican Hat and Lake Powell are all natural won-<br />

ders which are at most a few hours away by car<br />

from this breathtaking hotel, the perfect place<br />

to relax after a day discovering Native American<br />

traditions without disturbing the enchantment<br />

of the landscapes. A great central pavilion and<br />

two wings jutting out into the desert: 34 suites<br />

in total, 18 in the Mesa wing together with the<br />

Aman spa and 16 in the Desert wing. The main<br />

building is built around the swimming pool and<br />

inside there is a restaurant, art gallery and a private<br />

dining room for 10 people at most with a wine<br />

cellar and a cigar room. The Desert Lounge is the<br />

ideal space to enjoy the colours of the sunset or<br />

the clear, starry sky which only the desert can offer.<br />
