2019 Gold List
The 2019 Gold List is made up of Conde Nast's preferred hotels and resorts spanning six continents and 36 countries, which includes two of our award-winning partners, Six Senses Zighy Bay and COMO Parrot Cay. They're gold as in exceptional, classic and brilliant.
Omani Style Private Villa at Zighy Bay
Zighy Bay is the epitome of barefoot luxury inspired by wellness and adventure. Live out your spy film fantasies as you choose to arrive by 4x4, speedboat or paraglider on this stunning retreat. A holiday of rustic comfort awaits you as you settle in your private Omani village-style dwelling with striking views of the secluded marina. With its beautiful coastal location, activities are nothing short of amazing and you’ll find yourself checking off your bucket list one item after another—moonlight kayaking, wake boarding, deep-sea diving and dining Bedouin style by the beach are just a few options waiting at your doorstep. Nearby is a picturesque fishing village, and the bustling capital city of Oman which is only a 90-minute drive away.
Private villa sundeck at COMO Parrot Cay
Earning a well-deserved spot in Conde Nast’s 2019 Gold List, COMO Parrot Cay is the ultimate escape set on a private island in the Turks & Caicos. This private island resort is the definition of an unspoilt paradise: 1,000 acres of preserved nature, a mile of soft, white beach, turquoise waters and rich wetlands all combine to create a sanctuary of peacefulness and pleasure. It’s merely a 35-minute transfer by boat from the private marina on the main island of Providenciales and promises to captivate you from the moment you arrive. Have a peaceful morning yoga session by the beach with a steady breeze blowing through your hair before joining fellow guests during a yogic philosophy group discussion. Apart from daily yoga and Pilates sessions, you can discover your adventurous side with a variety of water sports, such as windsurfing and stand-up paddle boarding to round up your yoga holiday experience.
