Conrad Maldives Rangali Island


This stunning beachside hotel offers both overwater bungalows as well as beach villas. Sip cocktails on the overwater pavilion or enjoy a meal in the coveted undersea restaurant. Just don't think too hard about what you're eating while watching the native fish swim by.

Constance Le Prince Maurice


On the island nation of Mauritius is this secluded 60-acre slice of heaven. Set into the lush tropical landscape, experience quiet luxury by enjoying an outdoor bath or go swimming in one of the heated pools.

Park Hyatt Maldives Hadahaa


Go snorkeling at one of the 30 dive sites near the 50 overwater bungalows or take a tour with the resident marine biologist. After a day spent exploring, relax with a luxurious spa treatment onsite.

InterContinental Bora Bora Resort Thalasso Spa


While it’s great to experience pure luxury in a stunning overwater bungalow, it makes it even sweeter when the hotel is conscious of its environmental footprint. This InterContinental in Bora Bora uses special technology that takes seawater and reuses it to power the accommodation's electricity.

Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora


Nothing says luxury more than getting your meals delivered directly to your room and this Four Seasons takes things a step further by delivering your food by canoe. Lounge on the deck, take a dip in the crystal clear water or head to the spa and admire the sea below through a glass panel while you get a massage.

Song Saa Private Island


As Cambodia's first high-end coastal resort, Song Saa Private Island has a deep connection to the local culture. Built using local materials, by locals and filled with local art, you can swim in the glittering infinity pool or head underwater to explore the preserved reef.

The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort


If you’re in the market for an overwater bungalow that will allow you to spread out then this St. Regis is for you. With sizes starting at 1,550 square feet, it's the largest in French Polynesia. Combining modern accents like glass floors with local art and thatched roofs, it makes for a truly unique experience.

Likuliku Lagoon Resort


Kick your feet up and relax sans children in this adult-only retreat with 10 magical overwater villas and 35 more on the pristine beach. Each ‘bure’ is complete with local art, such as hand-woven magi-magi — woven coconut husk. Laze on your villa deck, go for a hike, visit a local village, jet ski to a nearby island or go diving — the options are endless in this luxurious Fiji getaway.
