18 Spots on Our Editors 2026 Wishlist

Chesa Marchetta Switzerland

“The new Artfarm hotel in the Swiss Alps looks like a total stunner. Artfarm is the hotel group run by Hauser & Wirth, so the property is packed with gorgeous art and furnishings.” — Emma

Le Sirenuse · Positano

Sirenuse Mare Amalfi Coast

“The legendary Le Sirenuse hotel has just announced plans to open a beach club in Nerano in time for summer 2026. It can’t be bad!” — Emma

Stars · Manhattan

Stars New York

“A just-opened wine bar in the East Village from the team behind Claud and Penny, so it’s bound to be a hit.” — Hunter

Zannier Île de Bendor · Marseille

Zannier Bendor France

“I’ve been a fan of Zannier hotels for a long time and feel it’s a hotel group that deserves more love. This new opening on an island off the coast of France (roughly a 45-minute drive from Marseille) will be just their second in Europe (other properties are in Namibia, Vietnam, etc.) and seemingly very luxurious.” — Emma

Orson · Paris

Orson Paris

“There aren’t a lot of “cool” restaurants in my neighborhood in Paris (the 6th), so I’m really thrilled about this new opening from jip chef Esu Lee. The industrial chic space is intimate and cool and I’ve heard great things about his Korean set menus.” — Emma

Maison Légère · Le Mans

Maison Légère France

“This charming house for rent is less than two hours from Paris in the Perche Sarthois region and a haven for thoughtful design and living. Every detail was thought of in the renovation. The light-filled space is decorated with antique furniture and vintage pieces and includes three bedrooms, a lovely living room with a fireplace, and a fully equipped open kitchen. It’s a beautiful countryside retreat that would be so fun to rent with friends for a weekend or week during the summer.” — Hunter

Sibbjäns · Sigsarve

Sibbjäns Sweden

“I’m dying to visit this recently opened farm stay in Sweden. It looks so cozy and has a spa that is set to open ahead of next summer.” — Emma

Vestige Son Ermità · Ciutadella

Hotel Son Ermità Menorca

“I fell in love with Menorca after a solo trip there a few years ago, so to say I’m excited to go back with my boyfriend for my birthday in May is an understatement. While there, I’ll definitely be checking out the newest boutique hotel from the team behind Son Vell. Set on an 800-acre estate, the property has just ten farmhouse-style suites, all with pristine, minimalist interior design. And hopefully their sister hotel on the same property, Binifuda, is open when I’m there!” — Hunter

GoldenEye · Jamaica

GoldenEye Jamaica

“I’ve been dreaming about staying at this iconic hotel for years. Particularly their lagoon villas right on the water; I can picture sunrise dips, sunset paddleboards, and swimming all day long. I love how low-key yet luxurious it is, and private.” — Hunter

Dar Ahlam · Skoura

Dar Ahlam Morocco

“This one has been a bucket list hotel for a long time and maybe I’ll make it happen in 2026. It's a (very expensive) boutique hotel set in a 19th-century kasbah where each guest's experience is completely unique (no two meals are served in the same spot). It’s a bit of an insider secret, but everyone I know who has been has said it’s truly spectacular and one-of-a-kind.” — Emma

Deplar Farm · Sveitarfélagið Skagafjörður

Deplar Farm Iceland

“Another bucket-list hotel is this stunning, remote property in Iceland’s remote Fljót Valley that looks surreal. Set on a 15th-century sheep farm, the ultra-luxury boutique hotel boasts insane mountain views from every angle, a 5,000-square-foot spa with glass walls, an indoor-outdoor geothermal-heated pool with a swim-up bar, and offers a host of guided activities like heli-skiing, sea kayaking, hiking, whale watching, and more. A once-in-a-lifetime wellness adventure that’s out of a dream!” — Hunter

Faros Villa Serifos · Sifnos

Faros Villa Serifos Serifos

“A beautiful villa available to rent, set on a cliff in Serifos with stunning views. Run by two friends with access to a private beach, it’s a remote getaway for complete relaxation, and I’m dying to go this summer.” — Hunter

Teshima Art Museum (豊島美術館) · Teshima-karato

Teshima Art Museum Setouchi Islands, Japan

“Places where art, architecture, and nature come together ground me, and I just know that the Teshima Art Museum in Japan’s Setouchi islands would blow my mind. I love that there are no phones or pictures allowed. It forces you to truly take in the experience.” — Hunter

Tango | Restaurant in Antwerp · Antwerp

Tango Antwerp

“A relatively new opening in Antwerp, from the team behind bakery-bar Tango Bar. I’ve heard excellent things about the food.” — Emma

Comptoir Central Des Bazars · Clermont-Ferrand

Comptoir Central des Bazars France

“My husband’s family lives in Auvergne in France and we always take the train through Clermont-Ferrand when we go visit, so I’m very excited that British chef Harry Lester has opened a new casual-cool wine bar in town, Le Comptoir Central des Bazars. While he’s since moved on from it, Lester was the man behind the lauded Auvergne inn and restaurant, Auberge de Chassignoles, so I’m certain his new spot will be amazing.” — Emma

Vuurtoreneiland · Amsterdam

Vuurtoreneiland Amsterdam

“One of the few spots I very sadly didn’t have time to visit on my quick recent trip to Amsterdam. Vuurtoreneiland is a special, private island restaurant that you reach by a one-hour boat ride (during which apps and drinks are served!) before a seasonal set menu dinner. There are also a handful of rooms if you want to stay the night.” — Emma

Findlerhof · Zermatt

Findlerhof Zermatt

“I’m traveling to Zermatt in March and while I usually pass on long lunches while skiing, I’m excited to lean into the classic European skiing experience of a long, drawn-out lunch on the mountain, and I’ve heard this is the spot to do so in Zermatt.” — Hunter

El Celler de Can Roca · Girona

El Celler de Can Roca Spain

“This has been a bucket list restaurant for me for a while. I find that a lot of Michelin-starred spots feel overly fancy or fussy, but I’ve heard from several foodie friends that this one—with three Michelin stars!—does not disappoint. I’ll likely combine it with a few days in the Costa Brava, staying at a Viu Empordà villa.” — Emma
