Amangiri • Las Vegas, Nevada aman.com/resorts/amangiri/
Las Vegas, Nevada is just a short but spectacular four-hour drive from Amangiri located in Canyon Point, Utah. On the way, your route passes Valley of Fire State Park, St. George City and Zion National Park all while skirting the northern edge of Grand Canyon National Park. This practically shouts, “Your driving adventure awaits!” Arriving at Amangiri, one of two Aman resorts in the U.S., you quickly realize that while it may have seemed im- possible to one-up the drive in, this spectacular resort has somehow found a way to do just that. Derived from the Sanskrit language, “Aman” means peace and “giri” means mountain. It befits the resort situated in a protected valley in the heart of the Grand Circle. Rooms range in size from the 1,000-square-foot Mesa View and Desert View suites to the palatial Amangiri Suite at 3,457 square feet and the 3,734-square-foot Girijalla Suite. The larger suites feature private lap pools and all highlight exceptional views of the picturesque Utah backcountry. A natural colour palette merges with the desert landscape as white stone floors, concrete walls and natural wood set the tone. American Southwest cuisine is served in a casual open kitchen setting, or privately at Camp Sarika Restaurant. Hiking, horseback riding, early morning hot air balloon rides, rock climbing and kayaking on Lake Powell are just some of the activities available. At the end of your day, a 25,000-square-foot spa offers massage, scrubs, wraps and floatation therapy in tune with the healing powers of the Navajo.
