Omni Homestead Resort & Spa Recognized With Conde Nast Traveler's 2025 Readers' Choirce Award

 
Hot Springs, VA (Oct. 7, 2025) - Condé Nast Traveler today announced the results of its annual Readers’ Choice Awards with The Omni Homestead Resort & Spa recognized as the #3 Best Resort in the South.

Condé Nast Traveler received more than 757,000 survey responses from readers across the United States rating their travel experiences across the globe to offer a comprehensive look at the places they eagerly anticipate revisiting. The Readers' Choice Awards, with their unparalleled legacy as the travel industry's longest-running and most prestigious accolades from readers, remain the ultimate symbol and acknowledgment of excellence within the travel sector. The full list of winners can be found here.

"We are incredibly honored to be recognized among the best resorts in the South by Condé Nast Traveler’s readers,” said Mark Spadoni, managing director at The Omni Homestead Resort & Spa. “This acknowledgment reaffirms not only our timeless hospitality but also how The Homestead continues to evolve as a year-round destination for today’s traveler.”

Known as America’s first resort and situated on 2,300 acres in the Allegheny Mountains, The Omni Homestead Resort & Spa has become synonymous with immersive wellness offerings, seasonal culinary programming, and a robust calendar of events and traditions that bring guests back year after year. From skiing and ice skating in the winter to championship golf, sporting clays, horseback riding, falconry, and fly fishing in the warmer months, the resort blends its historic legacy with modern recreation and relaxation. The Iconic resort has also emerged as a sought-after venue for weddings, milestone celebrations, and corporate gatherings with the addition of a 4,000-square-foot event pavilion.

While its recent $180 million property-wide renovations enhanced everything from the Warm Springs Pools – the oldest spa structure in the country dating to 1761 – to guest rooms, dining, and the iconic Great Hall, it is the vibrant experiences and enduring sense of place that continue to distinguish The Homestead as one of the South’s most celebrated resorts.

The 2025 Readers' Choice Awards are published on Condé Nast Traveler's website at cntraveler.com/rca and celebrated in the November issue.
