Anantara Guiyang Resort

Karst peaks frame every balcony at this resort south of Guiyang, which Anantara has dropped into a corner of Guizhou better known for Miao and Dong villages than pool villas. The 218 rooms and suites lean into the surroundings with indigenous textiles and terrazzo baths, while the Siam restaurant serves Thai fine dining to a landlocked province, a pairing that sounds stranger on paper than it does at the table.
