Why we love

  • Barefoot luxury
  • Manta encounters
  • Unique design

“Barefoot island life at its most imaginative, from jungle villas to stargazing above the Indian Ocean”.

Soneva Fushi is one of the Maldives’ original barefoot-luxury resorts, occupying the densely forested island of Kunfunadhoo within the UNESCO-listed Baa Atoll. Beach villas disappear into thick tropical vegetation while overwater retreats extend into the lagoon with private pools, retractable roofs and Soneva’s signature slides. Beyond the villas, the island has an observatory, open-air cinema, glass studio, organic gardens and more than ten dining experiences, including treetop dinners and reef-side meals; Hanifaru Bay, famous for seasonal manta-ray gatherings, is also within the wider atoll.

Six Senses Laamu

Hotel

Asia, Maldives

From $1,400

Six Senses Laamu occupies its own palm-covered island in one of the Maldives’ most remote southern atolls, with 94 beach and overwater villas scattered between jungle, white sand and an exceptionally healthy house reef. The setting feels noticeably wilder than the country’s more developed resort islands: dolphins cross the lagoon, turtles and rays are frequently seen, and the famous Yin Yang surf break sits just offshore. Villas lean heavily on timber and natural materials, alongside a 700-square-metre pool, six restaurants, an overwater wine cellar, spa, marine-biology centre and some of the best reef access in the Maldives, snorkeling can begin only a few steps from the villa.

Hotel Miramalfi

Hotel

Europe, Italy

From $850

Hotel Miramalfi sits on the cliffs at the western edge of Amalfi, about ten minutes on foot from the cathedral and the harbor, on Italy’s Amalfi Coast. Built into the rock above the sea, it has sea-view rooms with tiled floors and terraces, a saltwater pool with a poolside bar and a private sea platform for swimming and snorkeling in the Mediterranean. Guests can unwind at the spa and wellness center, eat at the hotel’s restaurants with views of the coast, and leave the car with the free valet, a rare convenience in Amalfi. Breakfast is included, and small pets are welcome.

Hermitage Bay

Hotel

Caribbean

From $1,800

Hermitage Bay is a boutique all-inclusive resort on the west coast of Antigua, set in a secluded bay a short drive from St. John’s. Its 30 suites are spread across freestanding cottages, some right on the white-sand beach and others on the hillside behind, with private terraces, outdoor showers, deep soaking tubs and, in the hillside suites, plunge pools facing the sea. Meals change daily and draw on local ingredients, served in an open-air restaurant overlooking the water. Rates cover breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, cocktail hour and dinner with house wines, along with yoga, Pilates and meditation classes, non-motorized water sports and airport transfers, while the spa offers treatments at an extra cost.

Coral Sands Inn & Cottages

Hotel

Caribbean

From $1,030

Coral Sands Inn & Cottages sits directly on Pink Sand Beach on Harbour Island, a small island off Eleuthera in the Bahamas, a short walk from the colorful clapboard streets of Dunmore Town. Opened in 1968 by actor Brett King and his wife Sharon, it was recently redesigned in a playful, all-over pink that echoes the shore. Its 38 accommodations are divided into inn rooms, cottages and seaside homes, many with balconies over the water. Guests spend their days snorkeling, body boarding or lounging by the oceanfront pool, with two restaurants and a beach bar on site and a daily manager’s reception at sunset.
