If you haven’t heard, Southern Utah is the new ‘it’ spot for elevated glamping. These three desert destinations blend luxe living with the allure of the outdoors. 

Redrock views frame Autocamp’s clubhouse. Inside, guests can find a general store, kitchen, games and lounge space.

Autocamp Zion 

Just twenty minutes from Zion’s park entrance, Autocamp Zion is a charming basecamp for your adventure. Stay in refurbished Airstream trailers that combine retro charm with modern luxury, offering a range of deluxe accommodations including spa-like bathrooms, fully equipped kitchenettes and private firepits. Larger groups can find comfort in spacious private cabins, or opt for the Basecamp—a hybrid of an airstream and large canvas tent. Stop by the clubhouse for adventure fuel, where a General Store and Kitchen offer made-to-order dishes and local provisions. After a day of hiking, rejuvenate with complimentary yoga sessions or an evening dip in the heated pool. autocamp.com

Ofland Escalante 

Near Bryce Canyon, Ofland Escalante is a vision of Americana excellence. Their new deluxe cabins are dressed in soothing rustic textures and sleek finishes, with private outdoor showers and patios to elevate the desert retreat. For a variety of experiences, choose from additional accommodations, including Airstreams, campsites and tiny cabins. Enhance your stay with a visit to the food truck park, take a dip in the oversized pool or enjoy a classic drive-in movie experience in vintage convertibles parked beneath the stars. ofland.com

ULUM Moab 

Tucked away in the serene Moab desert, ULUM Resort stands as one of only two destinations in Utah awarded a Michelin Key. The expansive grounds are dotted with safari-style tents that exude desert comfort. Breathtaking red-rock views are integrated into every detail of the site’s award-winning design, from the Looking Glass viewing deck to outdoor plunge pools. ULUM takes desert luxury to new heights with exceptional culinary offerings that showcase Southwestern flavors. ulumresort.com/moab

ULUM’s canvas tents seamlessly blend with the remote desert surroundings while offering all the creature comforts like heated mattress pads, rain showers and woodburning stoves.
