The Most Anticipated Luxury Hotel Openings of 2027

The luxury hospitality landscape is constantly evolving, with 2027 set to welcome an exceptional collection of new properties across some of the world's most sought-after destinations.

From a secluded Balinese coastline to the Swiss Alps, these five highly anticipated openings promise distinctive architecture, exceptional hospitality and a fresh perspective on luxury travel.

Mandarin Oriental, Bali — Indonesia

Perched above the Indian Ocean on Bali's picturesque Bukit Peninsula, Mandarin Oriental's forthcoming resort is set to become one of the island's most desirable addresses.

Designed to embrace its dramatic coastal surroundings, the property will feature panoramic ocean views, infinity pools, cliff-edge dining and direct access to a secluded white-sand beach.

The resort brings together the work of Design Lab architects, interior designer Jeffrey Wilkes and celebrated landscape designer Bill Bensley, with an emphasis on Balinese craftsmanship and contemporary design.

For travellers seeking privacy without sacrificing the island's distinctive character, this promises to be an exceptional addition to Bali's luxury hotel scene.

Expected opening: 2027

The Park Gstaad, A Four Seasons Hotel — Switzerland

Few Alpine destinations embody understated luxury quite like Gstaad.

Originally opened in 1910 as the village's first five-star hotel, The Park Gstaad is undergoing an extensive transformation before reopening under the Four Seasons name.

French designer Joseph Dirand is overseeing the interiors, balancing contemporary refinement with the property's traditional Alpine identity.

The reimagined hotel will offer 75 accommodations, seven restaurants and lounges, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, and a spa featuring Clinique La Prairie treatments.

Within walking distance of Gstaad's celebrated boutiques and restaurants, the property is positioned to become a year-round destination for skiing, wellness and summer escapes.

Expected opening: Summer 2027

Six Senses Milan — Italy

In the heart of Milan's fashionable Brera district, Six Senses is preparing to introduce its distinctive approach to wellness-led hospitality.

Located on Via Brera, the hotel will comprise 68 guest rooms, including 15 suites, with interiors celebrating Italian craftsmanship through marble, brass, handmade glass and intricate detailing.

A peaceful internal courtyard will provide a retreat from the surrounding city, while a rooftop bar and sky pool will offer a different perspective on Milan.

The property's spa, sustainable design principles and seasonal dining concepts promise a considered alternative to the city's more traditional luxury hotels.

For those visiting Milan for fashion, design or a weekend escape, Six Senses is an opening worth watching.

Expected opening: 2027

Four Seasons Resort and Residences Caye Chapel — Belize

For travellers drawn to private-island escapes, Four Seasons' forthcoming resort on Caye Chapel presents an especially compelling proposition.

Set on a six-mile private island off the coast of Belize, the development will combine contemporary resort design with the natural beauty of the Caribbean.

Plans include overwater bungalows and access to the extraordinary marine environment surrounding the Belize Barrier Reef.

The destination offers an appealing balance of seclusion and exploration, with opportunities to discover the region's remarkable underwater landscapes.

As demand for private, experience-led travel continues to grow, Caye Chapel is positioned to become one of the Caribbean's most exciting new luxury destinations.

Expected opening: 2027

Mandarin Oriental Cristallo, Cortina — Italy

Against the dramatic backdrop of the Dolomites, Mandarin Oriental is preparing to unveil its first Alpine resort.

The historic Cristallo property in Cortina d'Ampezzo is being transformed under the Mandarin Oriental name, bringing the group's renowned approach to hospitality to one of Italy's most prestigious mountain destinations.

Cortina has long attracted travellers seeking a combination of exceptional skiing, striking scenery and sophisticated Italian mountain culture.

The forthcoming resort promises to strengthen that appeal, offering a new luxury base from which to explore the surrounding Dolomites.

With Cortina's international profile continuing to grow, this is one of Europe's most intriguing upcoming Alpine openings.
