1. Cayo Espanto

Staying on a private island can be the ultimate vacation dream for many travelers, and few resorts do it better than Cayo Espanto in Belize’s Cayes of Belize. Here, guests are pampered to an extravagant degree in one of seven villas (plus two overwater bungalows), featuring customized menus or daily catch feasts prepared with care by staff who go above and beyond in providing incredible hospitality services.

White sand beaches, sparkling turquoise waters and palm trees that sway in the breeze create the Caribbean of your dreams. Guests can dine on their veranda or private dock, explore Mayan ruins in the jungle or kayak around to remote beaches and islands; when the mood strikes them they can even sail in one of our resort’s free sailboats over to nearby Blue Hole for diving adventure!

The resort features seven ocean front one and two bedroom villas dotted along its shores that offer rustic Caribbean interiors with exposed beams and cement floors, baby blue slatted windows and doors that open up to sea breezes, living rooms with wicker furniture and earth-toned pillows, luxurious ensuite bathrooms equipped with large showers from Yves Delorme linen and Lady Primrose toiletries, baby blue slatted windows that open outward, baby blue slatted doors that let in fresh sea breezes, living rooms with exotic hardwood furniture such as exotic hardwood furniture combined with baby blue slatted windows that open out to sea breezes while living rooms pair living rooms with exotic hardwood furniture with earth toned pillows in addition to luxurious ensuite bathrooms equipped with large showers from Yves Delorme linen and Lady Primrose toiletries for an unforgettable stay!

2. Soneva Kiri

Soneva Kiri offers an unforgettable tropical adventure unlike any other. Conveniently located an hour’s flight away from Bangkok, this Thai paradise features lush jungle-and-sand paradise where all modern luxury resort amenities seamlessly integrate with its stunning natural environment.

Visits to this eco-conscious, luxurious resort begin at the airport where a friendly liaison greets each traveler at customs and immigration before swiftly and painlessly leading them through baggage claim and onto a departure lounge where their Soneva jetplane awaits them. Once airborne, however, their journey becomes something magical as small propeller planes take to the skies over Thailand on jaw-dropping adventures!

Once guests arrive, they are taken directly to their cliff-top or beach level villas. All include private pools, outdoor living space and decking – making these accommodations truly idyllic for vacationing families or groups of friends alike. One notable aspect is how secluded the rooms themselves are: like Robinson Crusoe-inspired buildings (such as bathrooms with freestanding bathtubs that combine hot and cold rain showers) are cleverly hidden behind wooden panels or bamboo walls for maximum seclusion.

Soneva offers many unique experiences as part of its Slow Life approach, such as its observatory (staffed by an enthusiastic-aspirational astronomer), chocolate room and open-air Cinema Paradiso set over a lake; my favourite moment at Soneva was its food: this resort operates its own dairy to create delicious cheeses and yoghurt; additionally they use wood-fired hot and cold smoke ovens to produce mouthwatering meat dishes with flavors both exquisitely delicious yet unforgettable.

3. Song Saa

Song Saa is Cambodia’s ultimate paradise getaway if your dream vacation involves lounging on white-sand beaches, diving with dugongs and seahorses, or relaxing under palm trees – offering pure relaxation while simultaneously not taking an undue toll on our planet. Pioneer of responsible tourism at one time; now certified eco-resort – Song Saa offers pure relaxation without harming our ecosystem too much.

Song Saa is an oasis in the Koh Rong Archipelago. Spanning two islands – Koh Ouen and Koh Bong with an overwater marine reserve between them, Song Saa allows guests to discover its reefs, stroll among tropical rainforest, or laze on their private beach. If you want a deeper connection with nature, upgrade to an overwater villa featuring portholes for cooling airflow, or choose one of Song Saa’s beachside cabanas for ultimate seclusion and privacy. All-inclusive rates cover meals served both Vista Overwater Restaurant on Koh Ouen as well as numerous spa treatments available throughout both islands.

Song Saa Foundation stands out as an exception, coming into developing countries like Cambodia with not just self-interest but a dedication to building a better future for Cambodia itself. Through community programs geared at improving health, personal wellbeing and livelihood opportunities for local residents – visitors can enjoy its natural beauty without exerting excessive strain on marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Furthermore, the foundation also sponsors an annual medical mission into local villages, while offering guests the option to ‘pack for a purpose’ by providing essentials to children living there who require help.

Nukutepipi is the epitome of luxury island vacation. Thanks to Canadian billionaire Guy Laliberte’s vision and cofoundership of Cirque du Soleil, this exclusive retreat in French Polynesia’s Duke of Gloucester Islands sets new levels of exclusivity.
