Fitting everything in on a trip to a new destination often means leaving a good night’s rest by the wayside. After all, we want to see and do as much as we can when traveling abroad. So what if we lose some sleep along the way? Well, many travelers, hotels and resorts are beginning to wake up to the trending concept of sleep tourism. This idea might seem like hyperbole: Why travel somewhere just to sleep?

What if more hotels and resorts provided guests with the best sleep of their lives through custom sleep experience menus, unique sleep experiences and research-backed sleep retreats? The notion doesn’t seem so farfetched when considering the many ways upscale and luxury properties not only aim to make your stay relaxing but also your sleep restorative.

If you find yourself in dire need of a good night’s sleep away from home, consider these top-notch hotels and resorts offering sleep-focused experiences, amenities and tips.
