In a world where luxury is more and more becoming standard, true exclusivity is rare. These five resorts redefine indulgence – offering not just opulence, but complete seclusion, once-in-a-lifetime experiences, and a level of privacy that is rare.






1. North Island – Seychelles
Tucked away in the Indian Ocean, North Island is where royalty (yes, actual royals – it was Prince William and Kate’s honeymoon spot) and Hollywood elite retreat. With a strong focus on sustainability and barefoot luxury, each of the 11 villas on the island is handcrafted, spacious, and blends seamlessly into the natural environment. The resort offers personalized butler service and private beaches for each villa.
2. The Brando – Tetiaroa, French Polynesia

Why it’s exclusive: Owned by Marlon Brando, encircled by a coral reef
Located on a breathtaking atoll, once owned by actor Marlon Brando, this carbon-neutral paradise combines luxury with eco-conscious innovation. With just 35 villas, The Brando is the epitome of sustainable sophistication. Only accessible by private plane, the resort is all-inclusive and features access to pristine coral reefs and untouched beaches.
3. Laucala Island – Fiji
Owned by Red Bull billionaire Dietrich Mateschitz, Laucala Island is a tropical fantasy. It offers outrageous luxury – think private golf course, submarines for guest use, and farm-to-table dining with ingredients grown on the island. Each villa comes with its own pool, buggy, and private staff, and guests enjoy horseback riding on the beach, world-class diving, and underwater adventures
4. Amanzoe – Porto Heli, Greece
Aman resorts are synonymous with serene luxury, and Amanzoe is arguably the crown jewel. Inspired by classical Greek architecture, this sanctuary offers peaceful surroundings, panoramic views, and total privacy. Private pavilions with pools, a private beach club accessible via a short drive or helicopter, and tailored wellness experiences and holistic spa treatments are all enjoyed by guests.
5. Explora – Torres del Paine, Chile
Luxury doesn’t always mean tropical beaches. Explora Patagonia redefines exclusivity by offering unmatched access to one of Earth’s most remote and stunning landscapes – with comfort that doesn’t compromise. Located in a UNESCO biosphere reserve, guided explorations, surreal views of glaciers, lakes, and the Paine Massif itself are enjoyed by guests.
