Amangiri, ‘peaceful mountain’, is located on 600 acres in Canyon Point, Southern Utah, close to the border with Arizona.

Opened in October 2009 and designed by Rick Joy, Wendell Burnette & Marwan Al-Sayed, the 34 room luxury hotel is tucked into a protected valley with sweeping views over colourful, stratified rock towards the Grand Staircase – Escalante National Monument.

The resort is a 25-minute drive from the nearest town of Page, Arizona and a 15-minute drive to the shores of Lake Powell.

Rates vary from $1,000 to $3,600 per night, depending on the type of suite.

Check out the video below to see more details about this amazing resort!

Amangiri Resort by Aman Resorts:

“Amangiri is located in the southwest region of the USA also known as the Four Corners, where the states of Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona meet. Boasting one of the most dramatic landscapes in the USA with deep canyons and towering plateaus, the region has been home for centuries to the native Navajo and Hopi tribes yet is sparsely populated and presents the raw landscape for which the American Southwest has become famous.

Architecturally, the resort has been designed to blend into the landscape with natural hues, materials and textures a feature of the design. The structures are commanding and in proportion with the scale of the natural surroundings, yet provide an intimate setting from which to view and appreciate the landscape.

Arrival to the resort is via a winding road that descends into the valley and leads to the central Pavilion. Built around the main swimming pool, the Pavilion embraces a dramatic stone escarpment. Within the Pavilion are the Living Room, Gallery, Library, Dining Room, Private Dining Room and Cellar. Two accommodation wings lead from the Pavilion into the desert: 16 suites are located within the Desert Wing and another 18 suites together with the Aman Spa are located within the Mesa Wing. Outward views from the resort look over the untouched valley surrounded by lofty bluffs.”

  1. Looks fantastic but I cant help wondering where they get the water from!

    Are there underground springs in Utah or does water have to be pumped via pipes from 100s of miles away?

  2. I love traveling! I found her comment charming. It put me at ease and assured me that everything would be OK for my stay. I found the rest of the resort staff equally as good both on that visit and on my recent stay.
