One&Only resorts appear in what the company describes as some of the “most fascinating places on the planet,” including Dubai, Athens, Malaysia, the Maldives, and Rwanda. The resort in Dubai, for instance, offers Arabesque architecture, private beach access, and more than 65 acres of manicured gardens.

No two properties are alike, and in keeping with this theme, One&Only Moonlight Basin is located in a mountain forest, which includes the lakes, streams, and meadows that have made Montana famous. The resort offers year-round adventure, from skiing, snowboarding, dog sledding, Nordic skiing, and snowshoeing in winter to hiking, biking, kayaking, horseback riding, and fly fishing during the warmer months.

Set within a 240-acre campus, One&Only Moonlight Basin also offers an array of luxury amenities and lodging options while preserving more than 60 percent of its land as open space. Designed by the acclaimed Seattle architecture firm Olson Kundig to harmonize with the surrounding landscape, the buildings at the resort reflect a mountain-contemporary style and highlight Montana’s views and beauty.

The resort’s design prioritizes natural materials, local artwork, cozy textiles, fireplaces, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Architect Tom Kundig employed modular construction to reduce some of the environmental impact.

There are 73 rooms and suites in the guest lodges, or, for a more secluded experience amid the wilderness, guests can stay in one of the 19 cabins. For those seeking a permanent retreat, the resort also includes 38 private homes with five or six bedrooms across two or three stories. There are also eight custom estate lots. A future phase of development will add 24 additional residences.

The resort’s Sky Lodge, which is open to the public and accessible from the One&Only gondola at the Madison Base Area at Big Sky Resort, includes a full-service ski shop, ski lockers, a cocktail bar, and a sunny deck with panoramic views of Lone Peak and the Madison River Valley. The resort’s flagship steakhouse, The Landing, is located inside the lodge and offers elevated dining, après-ski cocktails, and event spaces. There are five additional restaurants and bars on site, including The Whiskey Shack, a 1,500-square-foot rustic tavern set in the woods along the resort’s cross-country trail system, which serves as a warming hut by day and a saloon by night.

Additional amenities include a spa with rejuvenating treatments inspired by the natural environment, a fitness center, a yoga studio, a salon, and swimming pools. A night-sky observatory will have visiting astronomers who guide guests through Big Sky’s starry skies, and the ski shop converts into a fly shop each spring, so that guests can try their luck angling for native cutthroat trout on the property’s ponds.
