Take These 8 Unforgettable Vacations In Alaska If You Feel Like Really Splurging
Seeing as Alaska is a notorious destination for tourism, it makes total sense that we would be home to some really high-end luxury accommodations. All around the state are top of the line resorts, spas, and hotels that offer exceptional service and high class living. Some of these destinations are lesser known while others are right in your own backyard. If you feel like taking your family or significant other on a vacation you absolutely won’t forget and the sky’s the limit for budget… then check out one of these 8 insanely luxurious hotels and resorts around Alaska.

The Bear Track Inn is located in Gustavus and the rate for a room includes the costs of round trip airfare from Juneau, so naturally this lodge is going to be an expensive trip, but make sure you get some fishing in while you’re there!

The Alyeska Resort is well known far and wide but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t offer incredible high end accommodations and one of a kind Alaskan experiences. The resort is located in Alaska’s much loved ski town, Girdwood, making it a great home base to travel from whether you’re going to Anchorage or down the valley. Rates for the Royal Suite vary throughout the year, but with a view like the one in the picture I can’t imagine it would be cheap.

Located in the heart of downtown Anchorage, The Hotel Captain Cook offers a high end stay with all the perks of being right in town. You still get to experience the amazing views of the mountains surrounding Anchorage and Denali looming in the distance but you’re just a hop and a skip away from anything you could need! If you choose to stay at the Captain Cook, make sure you save one evening to spend down in the Whales Tale, their basement wine bar with an awesome atmosphere and great food!
