outdoor destinations. World of Hyatt members can now book their stays at Under
Canvas camps and ULUM Moab through Hyatt to start earning and redeeming points.
“Travelers
are looking for new and unique experiences to reconnect with nature in
off-the-beaten-path locations. By adding these luxury outdoor camps to World of
Hyatt, we are bringing more memorable travel experiences for our guests and
members,” said Mark Vondrasek, Chief Commercial Officer, Hyatt. “Hyatt offers
one of the fastest-growing luxury portfolios globally and with the inclusion of
these incredible Under Canvas camps in World of Hyatt, we continue to double
down on this focus and bring immense value to our rapidly growing member
base.”

most sought-after and curated luxury outdoor experiences. Spread across
spectacular destinations in the U.S., such as Montana’s Yellowstone National
Park, Tennessee’s Great Smoky Mountains, Acadia National Park in Maine and
Yosemite National Park in California (anticipated opening in May 2025), Under
Canvas camps offer extraordinary upscale hospitality, with safari-inspired
tents and complimentary programming such as nightly campfires with s’mores,
board games, yoga and kid’s activities. The camps also offer wholesome and
nutritious food and beverage options through innovative menus that embrace
seasonality and thoughtfully sourced ingredients.

the land with a full-service restaurant, hot and cold dipping pools, a yoga
deck, comfortable lounge spaces and more.
“Under
Canvas is the leading outdoor resort company in the United States, with 13
locations outside of national parks and adventurous destinations such as
Acadia, Glacier, Moab, Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Zion,” said Matt Gaghen,
chief executive officer of Under Canvas. “We’re looking forward to welcoming
World of Hyatt members to our beautiful, safari-inspired camps so that they can
experience true comfort in nature in these amazing destinations. This exciting
collaboration with Hyatt will further our goal of connecting more people with
extraordinary places, people, and the planet by enhancing access to the
outdoors.”
Notably,
Under Canvas’ five “Grand Circle” camps across Utah and Arizona are the first-ever
DarkSky-certified resorts in the world – a testament to the brands’
commitment to minimizing light pollution and protecting the night sky. Grounded
in its ‘Mindful Approach’ ethos, the camps are designed to minimize
disturbance, maximize open spaces and flow with the natural topography of the
land.
In
an effort to reduce energy and water usage, Under Canvas camps feature
pull-chain showers, low-flow toilets, rechargeable battery pack chargers, and
low-level lighting. Under Canvas’ safari-inspired tents provide comfort in
nature, with king-size beds, luxe linens, USB charging packs, bedside lanterns
and a wood-burning stove, with the majority of tent types offering private
decks with views and ensuite bathrooms. To encourage immersion in nature, Under
Canvas camps do not offer Wi-Fi. For tech-savvy travelers, ULUM Moab offers
Wi-Fi connection in its contemporary, temperature controlled, lobby lounge and
restaurant.
