The Best Luxury Hotels for Nature Lovers: Staying in Harmony with the Outdoors

Luxury hotels for nature lovers offer something special — the rare chance to relax in lavish comfort while surrounded by wild beauty. For those who crave fresh air, forest paths, and mountain vistas without sacrificing five-star service, this kind of escape is perfect. From Europe’s alpine valleys to remote island retreats, here are the best luxury hotels for nature lovers who want to stay in harmony with the outdoors.


Why Choose Luxury Hotels for Nature Lovers?


If you’re drawn to the outdoors but still want the indulgence of a luxury stay, you’re not alone. More travellers now value experiences that blend sustainability, comfort, and connection with nature. Luxury hotels for nature lovers cater to this growing desire by offering:


  • Private access to beautiful landscapes
  • Spacious rooms with panoramic views
  • On-site activities like guided hikes or kayaking
  • Thoughtful design using natural materials
  • Fine dining with seasonal, local ingredients


You won’t have to choose between nature and luxury. Why settle when you can have both?

Europe’s Alpine Gem: Rosa Alpina, Dolomites, Italy


Nestled in the Italian Dolomites, Rosa Alpina is perfect for those who love both snow-capped peaks and warm hospitality. This family-run hotel combines rustic charm with modern elegance. Each suite feels like a mountain hideaway, complete with wood-beamed ceilings and soft textiles. The surrounding landscape is a UNESCO World Heritage site, offering endless hiking trails, ski slopes, and scenic viewpoints.


The hotel also boasts a three-Michelin-star restaurant, making it a culinary destination too. After a day on the trails, unwind in the serene spa or enjoy an aperitivo on the sun terrace as the mountains glow at sunset.


We’re able to offer some exclusive deals on stays at Rosa Alpina. Speak with us to learn more about current offers and curated experiences designed for nature lovers.


Island Paradise: Fogo Island Inn, Newfoundland, Canada


Few places feel as remote and wild as Newfoundland’s Fogo Island, and Fogo Island Inn makes the experience unforgettable. This architectural marvel sits dramatically above the rocks, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Atlantic Ocean. Here, nature dominates every view — crashing waves, seabird colonies, and endless skies.


Inside, the design reflects the island’s culture, with handcrafted furniture and locally woven quilts. Guests can join guided foraging walks, visit artists’ studios, or simply watch icebergs drift by. Each season brings a different atmosphere, from snow-dusted serenity to summer’s midnight sun.


Ask us about seasonal packages and unique experiences we can arrange at Fogo Island Inn. You won’t want to miss the chance to see this corner of the world.


African Adventure: Angama Mara, Kenya


For a front-row seat to the Great Migration and the vast savannah, Angama Mara in Kenya offers a truly immersive experience. Perched high above the Maasai Mara, this luxury lodge features tented suites with uninterrupted views of the plains.


Each morning, you’ll wake to the sound of wildlife and sunrise over the horizon. The lodge organises daily game drives, walking safaris, and hot air balloon rides for an unforgettable adventure. The staff are known for creating thoughtful, personal touches — from bush picnics to candlelit dinners under the stars.


We work closely with our partners in Kenya to bring you exceptional rates and private safari experiences at Angama Mara. Get in touch for details.


Tropical Escape: Six Senses Yao Noi, Thailand


Surrounded by lush rainforest and the dramatic limestone cliffs of Phang Nga Bay, Six Senses Yao Noi is a nature lover’s dream. Villas come with private pools and open-air spaces that blend seamlessly into the landscape. The resort emphasises sustainability and wellness, offering organic gardens, yoga pavilions, and eco-friendly practices.


Guests can snorkel among colourful coral reefs, cycle through coconut groves, or relax on quiet beaches. Every corner of this resort feels like a serene sanctuary.


We’re delighted to offer our clients access to special promotions at Six Senses resorts worldwide, including Yao Noi. Call us to hear about the latest deals.


Scandinavian Simplicity: Treehotel, Swedish Lapland


For those who want to reconnect with nature in a truly unique way, Treehotel in Swedish Lapland offers an experience like no other. Suspended among tall pines, each room is an architectural wonder, with designs ranging from mirrored cubes to UFO-shaped pods.


Here, silence reigns. You can explore snow-covered forests, catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights, or simply listen to the wind in the trees. It’s a place that invites you to slow down and savour the quiet beauty of the wilderness.


We regularly help clients book stays at Treehotel and similar Nordic hideaways. Speak to us about the seasonal offers available now.
