The Vanderbilt, Auberge Resorts Collection

Spend your time in Newport at one of the Gilded Age mansions that put this tiny seaside city on the map. A short walk from the bustling waterfront and historic Thames Street, The Vanderbilt—originally built in 1909 by Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt—has been meticulously restored to its former glory, welcoming guests with elegant lobby fireplaces, first-class dining, and luxury accommodations. Spend your days lounging at one of two pools, relaxing with a treatment at the spa, or cruising around town in a classic 1920s car. The celebrated property also boasts private wine tasting, immersive cooking classes, and rooftop bar with sweeping harbor views.
