Auberge Resorts Collection was honored as one of the top brands in the world with twelve of its hotels and resorts named to Travel + Leisure’s 2021 500 list. Drawing on the publication’s 2020 World’s Best Awards results, in which readers shared their thoughts on top-performing destinations, city hotels and resorts, Travel + Leisure has recognized the best hotels around the globe by naming them to this year’s T+L 500 list. It’s worth noting that Auberge Resorts Collection has the highest share of hotels included in T+L’s list amongst any brand with 10 or more properties in their portfolio.
“The Travel + Leisure 500 list is determined by the most sophisticated travelers, and we are greatly humbled that so many of our hotels and resorts have been awarded for their excellence in hospitality,” said Craig Reid, president and chief executive officer, Auberge Resorts Collection. “Our properties offer the highest levels of personal service, culinary creativity, boundary-pushing wellness and one-of-a-kind experiences in some of the world’s most desirable locations. We are proud of our team for establishing Auberge as the most distinguished brand in the luxury hotel category.”
The T+L 500 awards are the result of readers who rated hotels in eight geographic regions on the following characteristics: rooms and facilities, location, service, food and value.
Auberge Resorts Collection properties awarded on the list include:
· Auberge du Soleil, Auberge Resorts Collection (Napa Valley, Calif.)
· Calistoga Ranch, Auberge Resorts Collection (Napa Valley, Calif.)
· Chileno Bay Resort & Residences, Auberge Resorts Collection (Los Cabos, Mexico)

Each of Auberge Resorts Collection’s one-of-a-kind hotels and resorts—many of which are located in wide-open spaces in storied locations—is completely unique and captures the soul of the destination, yet all share a crafted approach to luxury and high level of personal service. Distinctive adventures include world-class cuisine and wine journeys in Napa Valley, year-round adventures in Colorado, reconnection with nature in Utah, relaxation on white sand beaches in Los Cabos or Anguilla, an escape to New England’s timeless hideaways, and a new destination for authentic, outdoor exploration on the Island of Hawai’i. In 2020, Mauna Lani, Auberge Resorts Collection reopened following a $200 million transformation, marking the brand’s first Hawaii resort. Since opening, the resort has garnered countless awards and was named to Architectural Digest’s 2020 Great Design Awards list.
In 2021, Auberge Resorts Collection’s momentum will continue with the debut of six new hotels, including:
· Bishop’s Lodge, Auberge Resorts Collection (Santa Fe, N.M.)
