We can’t wait to get out to Alphonse Island, on the outer periphery of the Seychelles where its remoteness really sets it apart from its stablemates dotted in the Indian Ocean just below the equator. But… we’re just holding back until October this year, when Alphonse’s fabulous brace of beach villas open their doors on to the most luxurious and spacious holiday spaces imaginable.
Slick, sumptuous, spacious and wonderfully anchored on Portugal’s Atlantic coast at Quinta do Lago; the Conrad Algarve is impressive, for sure. But don’t be fooled by this glittering hotel’s ability to accommodate a big wedding or a major family shindig. The fantastic Wellness programmes offered in the Spa and Health Club set amazing new standards for, as they say, an essential detox or a life re-set. We’ll get you there – all you need to do is yield.
We don’t think we’ve ever seen anything so delightfully soothing as the spa suites on Jumby Bay Island.

But that’s not the only peaceful aspect…
At this wondrous Six Senses location in the blue-green sea off the south Cambodian coast, you have an entire, private 30-acre tropical island at your disposal. But you have to be careful with it. Conservation of the lush vegetation is crucial; that’s why all the island’s drinking water is produced here using sustainable methods, and half a hectare is devoted to an in-house organic farm. The environment means the amazing produce grows like wildfire.

You know you’re heading somewhere very special when the last part of your journey is a three-hour trip by luxury yacht. But that’s the thing about Wa Ale Island in the Andaman Sea, dangling off the southern tip of Myanmar. Its rangy, undisturbed remoteness means it’s a place where the rocks and rainforest can support the wildlife.
