Cornering the market in luxury winter storm-watching packages, 'the Wick' is worth a stay any time of year. Embodying nature with its recycled-wood furnishings, natural stone tiles and the ambience of a place grown rather than constructed, the sumptuous guest rooms have push-button TVs that rise out of the furniture, two-person hot tubs, gas fireplaces, floor-to-ceiling windows and wave-whipped balconies.
A litany of deluxe extras includes raincoats and umbrellas for outside, bathrobes and slippers if you're staying indoors, a fitness center, a gourmet restaurant and 42 different room types. Despite the obvious lure for romantics, the Wick is also proactively child-friendly and pet-friendly.
