Openings: Tents at Capella Ubud | New-look Four Seasons

Lodges in Bali: Capella Ubud, Bali, has launched The Lodge, a 2,000-square-foot tented camp with an exotic, Asian-inspired color scheme and whimsical design from Bill Bensley. Highlights include an open plan living room; a master bedroom with a king-sized bed; a twin bedroom with two double beds; two bathrooms (one featuring a Japanese soaking tub and one with a hand-hammered copper bath). The al fresco living room with its own private refreshment bar leads to an outdoor deck with two large daybeds. The Lodge also has a private 205-foot private salt water pool (the other 22 tents also come equipped with private plunge pools).

Angsana to Corfu: Banyan Tree Hotels & Resorts has announced its first property in Europe, Angsana Corfu, opening in September 2019. The Greek island property has 199 rooms, suites and private pool villas; the island’s largest spa with 16 treatment rooms including five rooftop spa pavilions and the largest outdoor infinity pool; and five restaurants, including fine dining restaurant Bortrini’s from Michelin-starred chef Ettore Bortrini.

Social approach at Four Seasons: Four Seasons Hotel and Private Residences Montreal, with 169 guest rooms and 18 private residences, is opening as a bit of a departure for the luxury brand with more overt programming to connect guests and locals. Its Social Square, a sprawling space on the third floor that encompasses the hotel’s lobby and dining and drinking experience, Marcus by Chef Marcus Samuelsson, was designed by local Atelier Zébulon Perron. “Ultimately this place belongs to Montrealers. We want to create a space where locals and international visitors can connect and interact,” said GM Gonçalo Monteiro. “We’ve created a unique eco-system where visitors are surprised at every turn, that encourages social engagement, sets the stage for unexpected encounters and where unique moments and memories are created.”
