1. Bora Bora, French Polynesia – Heaven on Water

Just picture yourself waking up in a wooden overwater villa with the clearest turquoise waters you will ever imagine. So that is Bora Bora.

It is located in tiny South Pacific and is a favourite of celebrities and honeymooner. The private pools, personal butlers and sceneries that could not actually be called real in these luxury resorts are renowned the world over.

I even watched a video of one person having their breakfast served in a floating tray in the pool- yes, this is indeed where people have their breakfast served in their pools in Bora Bora. In search of tranquility, love and unreserved indulgence, this is where you can go.

2. Santorini, Greece – A Whitewashed Dream

Unless you are one of those individuals focused on beauty and Instagram-able views then, Santorini will be your paradise on earth.

Located on cliffs above Aegean Sea, this Greek Island is considered iconic with its white houses and the blue domes. Sunsets in this region are nothing less than magical, people even applaud when the sun goes down.

In Santorini, luxury is associated with cozy hotels with infinity pools, which appear to combine with the sea, Mediterranean cuisine, and the possibility of hiring your own yacht to visit volcanic islands.

3. Dubai, UAE – Where Luxury Has No Limits

But now we can discuss a destination that is over-the-top and that is in an excellent manner. Dubai is a metropolis that changes the concept of luxury day by day.

The city of Dubai does not do things in half, whether you want to have a gold-dusted cappuccino or to live in a hotel suite underwater. This is where you can find some of the tallest, biggest and most glamourous things in the world.

I recall going to Dubai mall and getting an indoor fish aquarium within the shopping mall. Be it shopping, spas, or fascination by architecture, Dubai is a paradise of a luxury traveller.

4. The Maldives – Romance, Rejuvenation & Royal Treatment

This was probably one of the most predictable mentions on this list--since no list of luxury travel can be complete without The Maldives.

The Maldives, complete with white sands beaches, crystal clear lagoons, and exclusive-island resorts, is the place to be in when it comes to holidaying like a VIP. So what is special about it? Privacy. The resorts are normally constructed on their independent islands. There are no crowds, no noise, only you, the sea and there is peace.

Maldives is also preferred by many Indians since it is not very far in relation to home and also due to the ease of the visa process.

Don’t Miss:

• Ocean spa treatments
• Scuba driving or glass bottom boat rides
• Breakfast on a boat in your exclusive villa

5. Lake Como, Italy – Timeless European Elegance

Finally, we are going to Lake Como in Northern Italy. There is probability that you have at least seen a romantic film or clips of a celebrity wedding ceremony-that is, these beautiful lake served as a backdrop.

The thing is that Lake Como is luxurious due to the old world with modern comfort. Environmental beautiful dwellings, marvellous gardens, pleasant cruises, and tasty Italian cuisine come to mind.

George Clooney owns a villa in the area- and it does not take long to understand why.

I have heard someone say that it is a place where even the wind smells expensive and to be frank, that feels right!

• Michelin starred lunch on the lakeside
• A one-day visit with Bellagio or Varenna
