With summer very near, traveling will be in full effect. There are some superb new hotels and resorts that have opened this year, just in time for summer vacations.
According to a recent survey by U.S. Travel Association, travel spending increased significantly in September and has reached its highest mark at 6% above 2019 levels. And it’s expected to keep growing; 32% of American travelers indicate leisure travel will be a high-budget priority in the next three months.
The uptick in traveling has new hotels and resorts popping up. From the U.S. all the way to Marrakech, this list of new resorts will fit just about anyone.

St. Thomas has a new boutique hotel nestled on a hill between mango and palm trees. The Pink Palm Hotel was once a residential property but was transformed and opened in February 2023 to bring visitors closer to experiencing the historic district of Charlotte Amalie.
The Adults-only property features large guest rooms that offer modern and cool luxurious finishes and patio spaces with serene scenery. Visitors can chill out at the pool or grab food at its onsite restaurant.
