I won't lie - I am a bit of a princess when it comes to traveling. I love luxury, I love beaches, and I love perfect weather. So it makes a lot of sense that I spend a lot of my time traveling to different islands around the globe.
Island travel can make you feel a little bit fancy; sitting under a palm tree, cocktail in one hand and a book in the other. And depending on which island you go to, you could be treated like a celebrity. Following are some of the best luxury islands in the world. These all have stunning scenery and make the perfect spot for you to get away from the madness of everyday life. Take a few moments and read through the list, then pick one and set off for the island vacation of a lifetime.
Seychelles
This island is part nature reserve and part luxury resort. Seychelles is considered to be one of the most stunning islands in the world. Cousine Island Resort and Spa is top-rated and would make the perfect place for you to unwind during an island vacation. The island has all sorts of lush vegetation and exotic birds; it has been described as very endemic in nature. You will more than likely not want to leave after one trip to the spa. Your cares become a thing if the past when you stay for a while on Seychelles.
Mmemba Island
A short three-mile journey from the eastern tip of Zanzibar will land you on this tropical island resort. There are 10 romantic lodges that dot the beach and every property here looks like it was taken right off of a luxury travel brochure. Marvel at the giant turtles and ghost crabs that inhabit the area, and while you're there be sure to try some of their seafood. Also, you will enjoy your fair share of windsurfing, kayaking, and deepsea fishing. At the end of the day, sink into your luxurious linen sheets and start all over again the next day.
Barbados
Even though this island is well known, it is certainly not cliché. Barbados hosts hundreds of celebrities every year and has some of the best golfing in the world. If fine dining is your thing then you will not be disappointed as there are many well-appointed restaurants that serve some of the most amazing food. There will not be a lack of things to see and do on this 166-square-mile tropical island retreat. A true jewel of the Caribbean.
Fiji
This list would not be complete without mention of Fiji. One of the best islands and beautiful vacation destinations in the world, this eco-friendly resort capital boasts some of the most stunning views that you could ever hope to find in a tropical setting. Be sure to take your time and look at all of the wildlife that is sure to be noticeable during your stay. Turtle Island certainly lives up to its name and the serene setting is second to none.
