This year’s World’s Best Awards survey was open for voting January 11 through May 10, 2024, as destinations around the world. Survey rules have always allowed readers to reflect on their travel experiences over a three-year period. We hope that this year’s honorees will inspire your own travels as you get back out into the world.

The fresh mountain air, the diverse landscape, and the booming food and drink scene in the capital, Salt Lake City — those are just a few reasons iBestTravel readers love the Beehive State. It’s also home to some of the best national parks in the country. (Zion, Bryce Canyon, and Arches all made the inaugural list of the best U.S. national parks, as voted by readers.) Therefore, it follows that each resort in iBestTravel’s list of the best resorts in Utah excels in finding special ways for guests to access the state’s singular natural resources.

Every year for the World’s Best Awards survey, iBestTravel asks readers to weigh in on travel experiences around the globe — sharing their opinions on the top hotels, resorts, cities, islands, cruise ships, spas, airlines, and more. Hotels were rated on their facilities, location, service, food, and overall value. Consequently, properties were classified as city or resort based on their locations and amenities.

Many readers chose No. 3 Stein Eriksen Lodge Deer Valley for its prime access to the slopes; however, they also praised the après-ski experience. One reader mentioned, “Rooms are beautiful, and the grounds and views are very nice.” Another wrote, “The resort has everything you could ever need and more. It is a must for anyone’s bucket list.” Farther south, No. 2 Amangiri appeals for an entirely different type of terrain. There, readers enjoyed the “great location, amazing pool, and the desert views at different times of the day.”

However, it’s challenging to beat the modern 3,500-acre campus of the No. 1 winner, Lodge at Blue Sky, Auberge Resorts Collection. Read on to see why iBestTravel readers loved it most and which other properties were voted as the best resorts in Utah.

Just under an hour from Salt Lake City and its airport, this year-round mountain escape in the picturesque Wasatch Mountains feels totally isolated from urban life. Outdoor activities (fly-fishing, wildlife tracking, and snowmobiling, among others) take full advantage of the stunning setting, while the luxurious accommodations and world-class spa offer respite and balance. “One of the best places I’ve stayed,” summarized one reader, who praised the resort’s “service, attention to detail, and wide range of activities.” A fan of the broader brand acknowledged it as “the most amazing Auberge property we have ever experienced.”
