The Southwest
Meridian

Arrive by private jet to Sedona Municipal Airport (SDX), met on the tarmac by resort transport. Two true two-bedroom configurations at the top of the Sedona luxury market — L'Auberge's Two-Bedroom Garden Cottage on Oak Creek (Travel + Leisure's #1 Sedona resort) or Enchantment Resort's Casa Two-Bedroom Suite up in the dramatic Boynton Canyon. Both deliver separate bedrooms with private en-suite baths.

The most extraordinary lodging option in the American Southwest — and the only true luxury tier within an hour. The Two-Bedroom Tented Pavilion at Camp Sarika delivers ~2,800 sq ft with two king bedrooms, two full bathrooms (each with soaking tub, indoor rain shower, AND a private outdoor rain shower), a heated private pool, fire pit, and full-board all-inclusive dining. The maximalist alternative — Amangiri's Four-Bedroom Mesa Home — is one of the most exclusive private residences on the Aman portfolio (50-foot infinity pool, professional kitchen, 4 king bedrooms). Both share the 25,000 sq ft Amangiri spa.

This is the crown jewel of the entire journey. Papillon's Private Grand Celebration Tour reserves an entire EcoStar helicopter exclusively for your two-person party. A private pickup from your hotel or helicopter staging point launches a flyover of Hoover Dam and Lake Mead before a dramatic 3,200-foot descent to the canyon floor. Your private landing site sits adjacent to the Colorado River — refreshments and a champagne toast served under an authentic Native American ramada. Optional sunset return includes a Las Vegas Strip flyover, landing you at your hotel door.

Two configurations, both giving each traveler a private bedroom + private full bath. The Waldorf Astoria sits in CityCenter — a 9-minute walk to T-Mobile Arena, the closest true Forbes 5-Star to both the hockey arena and the Sphere walking corridor. Its Grand Presidential Two-Bedroom Suite (3,100 sq ft, two kings, two jetted-tub bathrooms) is a single-unit 2BR with no compromise. The Four Seasons (perched in its private tower atop Mandalay Bay) is the legendary #1 Las Vegas hotel — but it's ~1 mile / 20-min walk south of T-Mobile, so a 5-min Lyft is the typical move. Where a true 2-bedroom suite isn't available there, the play is a Suite for the senior traveler plus a connecting Deluxe Room for the junior — request "connecting" at booking.

The Golden Knights were deep in the 2026 playoffs by early April — and Vegas playoff hockey at T-Mobile Arena is one of the loudest, most electric atmospheres in North American sports. The arena sits directly on the Las Vegas Strip, a short walk or ride from the Four Seasons. A playoff game here — roaring crowd, golden confetti, the iconic "Go Knights Go" — pairs perfectly as a Night 1 option before the Sphere on Night 2. Suite and club-level VIP experiences put you above the ice in full comfort with premium food and drink service.
