We all love sparkling waters and golden beaches, but when you can get under the water and experience beauty on another level, it’s all the more rewarding. Here’s where we recommend you inspect the beauty that lurks beneath the surface.
Lizard Island – Great Barrier Reef, Australia
Our top pick is the super-sumptuous Lizard Island on the northeastern Great Barrier Reef of Australia.
It’s a complete splurge but when you consider there’s 24 private beaches at your disposal and wellness treatments somewhere called the Azure Spa, it’s worth a visit. 40 villas encompass complete luxury and for true extravagance, the Pavillion suite offers you a 270 degree panoramic view of the Coral Sea, complete with private pool for the ultimate sundowner experience.
Treat yourself with the Cooling Hot Stone Body-Facial and delve into the deep of the Great Barrier Reef with diving, snorkelling and reef fishing that will take your breath away.
Kamalame Cay – Bahamas
Exclusivity comes with the booking confirmation here- a private island with 96-acres to explore…better make that a long stay booking.
Exclusive and elegant, these suites are decked out with private patios, oversized bath tubs and endless ocean views.
Kamalame Bay is home to the third largest barrier reef in the world and the best spots to enjoy sundowner cocktails. In addition to diving and snorkeling, the resort also offers bone fishing and windsurfing. The experience goes skin deep too with Seaweed Botanical Wraps to get your body ready for the beach.
Pimalai Resort and Spa- Thailand
If you want your underwater order served with rainforest on the side, then the private island of Koh Lanta Yai should be on your destination wish list. The crystal clear waters of the Andaman Sea are flanked by lush rainforests that bespeak adventure. Get taken away by a bevvy of water sports and activities like sailing, snorkeling, windsurfing and diving, or do something complete different, but equally exotic with elephant rides on the beach.
Fusion food and specialty Thai cuisine is on the menu at two top class restaurants. Yum.
