The rebirth of New York's art-scene icon and other leading lights

Talk about a brush with greatness… [View in browser]( [Image](   [HOTELS]( [INSPIRATION]( [OFFERS]( New York has its share of hotels associated with this or that celebrity. Then there’s the [Hotel Chelsea,]( which isn’t a footnote in history but a focal point of American culture. Whole constellations of creativity have burst forth from within, where poets once wandered the corridors and painters paid their rent with canvases. It might not be the shabby, graffitied utopia it once was or have a brothel operating from one of the rooms, but stay here and you’ll follow in the footsteps of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Patti Smith, Arthur Miller, Dylan Thomas, Mick Jagger and many, many more… Elsewhere, we've a resort on Harry S Truman's favourite private island, a surfer's paradise on Brazil's Atlantic coast, and a verdant oasis in the heart of Paris… [SEE WHAT'S NEW](   [Alternate text]( [MUARÉ, TULUM]( Wrapped in a pocket of Mayan jungle, Muaré makes a hearty embrace of spirituality, with rooms named after moons and stars. Each of the suites has a plunge pool primed for after-hours stargazing – we'd recommend calling in a round of citrusy spritzes to enhance the celestial glow. Come morning, salute the sun at a yoga class in the open-air shala, get floaty with a shamanic treatment at the spa, or head out on a boat trip to the Sian Ka'an Reserve, one of the most diverse biospheres on the continent.

In the case of former US president Harry S Truman, his slice of seclusion was a private island in the Florida Keys, now home to Little Palm Island Resort. Today it’s an adults-only retreat with just 30 suites, most with their own strip of private beach. Days that aren’t spent on the sand or in the spa often involve venturing out into the Keys, where there’s stellar scuba and fishing to be had. If you find yourself at a loss of things to do, just ask: what would Harry do? [VIEW HOTEL](   [KENOA RESORT, BRAZIL]( Galloping along the golden sand on a trusty steed; hitting a perfect point break out on the ocean; supping on fresh oysters and wild honey as you canoe between villages in a mangrove forest. These are the things that make up a normal day at Kenoa Resort, a luxe outpost in the Barra de São Miguel on Brazil’s wild Atlantic coast. You’re never far from nature here, even in your room, where the vast picture windows face the crashing waves. Wake early enough and you'll see the local fishermen at work, landing a haul that’ll be on the menu by lunch. [VIEW HOTEL](   [Alternate text]( [BLUEBIRD LAKE PLACID, NEW YORK STATE]( Hunkered down between the Adirondack mountains and Mirror Lake, this New York state lodge is a short drive from the ski lifts at Whiteface Mountain. While it looks every inch the rugged outdoorsman from the outside, the lodge has come over all Zen master within, mirroring the minimalist styling of ski lodges in Scandinavia and Japan. Whether you plan to travel in the depths of winter or high summer, you’ll want to gear up to spend most of your time outdoors: skiing, hiking, biking, and fishing are a big deal in these parts. [VIEW HOTEL](   [LA FANTAISIE, PARIS]( Paris newcomer La Fantaisie looks good enough to eat with its sweet-shop-inspired palette of pastels and patterns courtesy of Swedish design wizard Martin Brudnizki. But when it comes to actual eating, you'll want to save your appetite for chef Dominique Crenn’s non-conformist and California-inspired dishes at the hotel’s Golden Poppy restaurant. Other flights of fantaisie include romantic Juliet balconies in the rooms, a lush garden, and a Twenties-style rooftop bar steeped in Golden Age glamour.
