Gili Lankanfushi, Maldives

If you thought you’d enjoyed an elite Island experience before, then wait until you feast your eyes on the Private Reserve at Gili Lankanfushi. This destination is less of a trip to the beach and more like renting your own private island mansion. The largest overwater villa in the world, it can only be reached by boat and contains two bedrooms, a spa and sauna, your own gym, a private cinema, a wine cellar, and butler service. And did we mention the water slide? Because you’ll be enjoying one of those too!

You’ll enjoy not only a dedicated butler but also direct access to the turquoise waters below and your own personal jacuzzi.
