Written by Zoe Kim | December 5, 2025

Escape to Extraordinary: Exploring the Magic of Auberge Collection

In a world where luxury can sometimes feel predictable, Auberge Collection stands apart by making every stay feel deeply personal. 

Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, seeking adventure, or simply craving a serene escape, this boutique hotel collection makes every stay feel warm, thoughtful, and authentically connected to its surroundings.

If you’re dreaming of travel that nourishes both your senses and your spirit, Auberge should be at the top of your list.

Where Heart Meets Luxury

Auberge isn’t just a portfolio of high-end hotels; it’s a brand built around emotional luxury. Each property is designed to feel intimate, residential, and deeply tied to its surroundings. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, they lean into what makes each destination so special and translate that into thoughtful gestures, locally inspired activities, and warm, anticipatory service.

It’s the kind of luxury that makes you relax instantly because you know you’re in good hands.

A Collection of One-of-a-Kind Retreats

The brand’s footprint spans some of the world’s most captivating locations: the rolling vineyards of Napa Valley and Calistoga, the snow-capped slopes of Aspen and Park City, the sun-soaked beaches of Los Cabos, and the quaint, storied streets of Kennebunk, Maine. Each property tells its own story, yet all are united by a deep commitment to beauty, culture, wellness, and exceptional culinary experiences.

Beautiful, Distinctive Design

Auberge properties never feel generic. Instead, their design tells the story of the destination—whether it’s the natural textures and vineyard views of Auberge du Soleil and Stanly Ranch in Napa Valley, the coastal elegance of White Barn Inn in Maine, or the sun‑splashed, contemporary style of Esperanza in Los Cabos. Every space is crafted to be both stunning and livable; elevated, but never intimidating.

Exceptional Dining

Whether you’re indulging in Michelin-starred cuisine at The Restaurant at Auberge du Soleil, savoring a farm-to-table meal under the stars at Clay at Wildflower Farms in New York, or enjoying coastal-inspired dishes at the White Barn Inn Restaurant in Maine, Auberge’s culinary experiences are a highlight of every stay. Many properties feature award-winning culinary programs that draw inspiration from local flavors, farms, and traditions. From tasting menus and chef’s table dinners to garden-fresh cuisine and inventive cocktails, dining at Auberge is a flavorful journey through each destination’s culture.

Immersive Experiences

What truly makes Auberge unforgettable is its dedication to crafting immersive, experiential travel. Each property curates its own signature activities, rooted in local culture, nature, and creativity, such as:

  • Wine tastings with winemakers at Auberge du Soleil in Napa Valley
  • Sailing adventures along the coast with Esperanza in Los Cabos
  • Private workshops with artisans at Wildflower Farms in Gardiner
  • Guided nature hikes and wildlife experiences at The Lodge at Blue Sky in Park City

Auberge helps you connect with the destination in ways that feel personal and unforgettable.

A Few Standout Properties You’ll Love

While every property has its own personality, here are a few highlights from the collection:

The Lodge at Blue Sky — Park City, Utah

Set on a private, 3,500-acre ranch outside Park City, this modern mountain retreat invites you to reconnect with nature in the most luxurious way.

The Lodge at Blue Sky offers an elevated escape for couples, families, and anyone craving fresh air and intentional living in the American West.

Mauna Lani — Kohala Coast, Hawaii

Positioned on Hawaii Island’s dramatic Kohala Coast, Mauna Lani offers serene oceanfront relaxation, a protected bay ideal for snorkeling, and enriching cultural programming led by local storytellers and historians. The property’s lush grounds, lava fields, and vibrant sunsets ground you in a sense of place that feels both restorative and invigorating.

A beloved alpine retreat, Goldener Hirsch marries Austrian-inspired design with modern mountain luxury.
