Sagamore Pendry Baltimore: $75 daily hotel credit

Baltimore is the cool east coast escape you didn’t know you needed. And the Sagamore Pendry, housed in an early-20th-century building on the city’s Recreation Pier, is the perfect (and very cool) homebase from which to explore the dynamic city. The Pendry is all about curating hyperlocal experiences, but don’t miss some well-deserved pool time on their dedicated private deck, with sweeping views of the harbor. (Pro tip: the Pendry Washington DC – The Wharf is also running this special promotion.)

Fora Perks:

  • A welcome amenity, $70 daily breakfast credit for two, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.

Fine print: valid for stays of at least two nights.

The Four Seasons has officially arrived on the Baja Peninsula, bringing its signature elegance and white-glove service — with refreshing hacienda-style charm — to the stunning natural playground. Free-dive off the hotel’s beach, play a round at their world-class golf course or enjoy a massage in a private outdoor garden. Reservations are already opening, and from May 1 on, you’ll be able to experience a whole new side to Cabo.

Fora Perks:

  • When you book Four Seasons with a Fora Advisor, you will enjoy exclusive Four Seasons Preferred Partner amenities. Your advisor will be pleased to give you more details.

We have our eyes set on this all-villa beachfront resort in the Cyclades. One&Only is a master at discrete luxury. Their hotels and resorts are located in remote, privileged destinations that allow guests to more authentically experience a place. At Kéa Island, you can indulge your adventurous side — the surrounding terrain is perfect for hiking, biking, trail running and more — explore secret coves via a private boat, dive and snorkel among shipwrecks, relax at their beach club and savor organic, locally sourced cuisine. 

Fora Perks:

  • When you book One&Only with a Fora Advisor, you will enjoy exclusive partner amenities. Your advisor will be pleased to give you more details.

Auberge excels at giving their properties a strong sense of place inspired by their surroundings. And this summer, The Dunlin, on the banks of the Kiawah River just 20 minutes outside of Charleston, is bringing cottage-chic vibes and Southern hospitality to the brand’s portfolio. (See more of the best Auberge resorts.)

Fora Perks:

  • Hotel / resort credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.

Speaking of Auberge, at their hotels around the world — from Mauna Lani on Hawaiʻi to Etéreo on the Riviera Maya — all kids'-menu meals for the 10-and-under crowd will be complimentary this summer. Dates differ by property (at the Lodge at Blue Sky, for instance, the offer extends until the end of the year), so connect with your Fora Advisor for the details. Regardless, you’ll have one less thing to worry about.

Fora Perks (perks vary by property):

  • Hotel / resort credit, breakfast daily, an upgrade & extended check-in/out whenever possible.

This Hawaiʻian resort pays homage to local tradition and heritage. Nearly all the resort’s art was crafted by local Hawaiʻians, and the majority of their culinary ingredients are sourced from local farms, if not from Kona Village’s onsite garden. After a day spent paddleboarding or canoe surfing — or lounging by the beach, of course — retreat to the Asaya Spa, where traditional Hawaiʻian healing modalities inform the heavenly treatments. 

Fora Perks:

  • Hotel / resort credit, a welcome amenity, breakfast daily for two & an upgrade.

Fine print: valid for travel now through December 19

Grand Hotel Timeo, A Belmond Hotel: €300 food / beverage or spa credit
