WHAT IS ANDREW HARPER?

Authentic, honest reviews, since 1979

For over 40 years, our editors have traveled the globe incognito to discover exceptional hideaways and experiences for Andrew Harper members.

“The idea for this newsletter back in 1979 — to share information about peaceful and unspoiled sanctuaries with a limited and compatible group of sophisticated travelers — remains at the core of its identity today.”

“If Bhutan weren’t so far away, I’d make a stay at &Beyond Punakha River Lodge an annual tradition. Maybe I will anyway.”
– ANDREW HARPER
“Relaxing in the Dior Spa and lounging on the extraordinary pool terrace were sybaritic pleasures, as was feasting on huge Arabian breakfasts and the wood-fired cuisine of Basque chef Martín Berasategui.”

Hideaway Report

December 2024

Luxury comes in many forms, as evidenced by the contrasting styles of our Hotels of the Year. Here are the ones that dazzled us in 2024 plus countless other awards!

Dragsholm Slot, Denmark

Q Club Hotel

Andrew Harper members can join a captivating herb-foraging experience in the woods and gardens with the chef or a scenic vineyard walk with the sommelier to discuss exquisite local cold-climate wines.

“With a cooking style he describes as ‘nature conscious,’ chef Henriksen builds his menu around seasonal vegetables and herbs. Our roast pork loin with kale and ‘Danish capers’ was predictably delicious, but the real revelation of the meal was the Danish white wine suggested by sommelier Peter Fagerland.”
– ANDREW HARPER
“Enjoy a treatment in the hotel’s spa, housed within two Edwardian cottages, which has a luxurious indoor swimming pool. Have dinner in one of the handsome paneled dining rooms at the hotel’s excellent restaurant.”
