FOR ADULT CAMPING:
Sundance Mountain Resort, Utah, USA

DEBUG: core/paragraph

Founded by Robert Redford and celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, the Sundance Mountain Resort is as dedicated to the arts as the actor's other great Sundance venture: the film festival. Here, instead of paparazzi and glitterati, you'll enjoy an outdoorsy, off-the-grid retreat. Activities include biking, fly fishing, horseback riding, lift rides and zip-lining as well as pottery, watercolor and print-, jewelry- and journal-making classes.

FOR LUXURY R&R:
Mandarin Oriental, Lake Como, Italy

DEBUG: core/paragraph

Soak up la dolce vita in this haute haven that's equal parts glamour and supreme serenity. The region itself is filled with great wonders, like botanic gardens and stunning architecture—there's a reason George Clooney and Amal Clooney have made it a second home—but you could never leave this resort and still have a A-list getaway. Among the highlights: Mandarin Oriental's massive floating swimming pool in the middle of the lake.

FOR WILDLIFE ADVENTURES:
Pumulani Lodge, Cape Maclear, Malawi

DEBUG: core/paragraph

Can't decide between a safari adventure and lakeside leisure? Then head to Robin Pope's Pumulani Lodge, which offers various private villas tucked into the lush landscape. There are incredible experiences on both the surf and turf sides: snorkeling and diving, boat rides and beach days, waterskiing and wakeboarding as well as scenic hilltop hikes and, of course, safari exursions.
