Itinerary Description:
Your private island escape begins within the waters of the Indian Ocean, where the coral reefs and sandbar islands of the Maldives await. Your luxury private villa at One&Only Reethi Rah is a cocoon of sumptuousness floating above the turquoise lagoon - a secluded corner of the earth promising uncompromising privacy and peacefulness, as well as views of the pure blue skies and ocean waters extending as far as the eye can see. Your days here exist as you wish, exploring the stunning coastline and private beaches, island hopping over the crystalline waters, or adventuring on land and sea in search of vibrant marine life.
With 6 kilometres of stunning coastline, 12 beautiful beaches and 40 pools, water is the elixir of life on this island paradise. Private villa pools are perfect for a day of indulgent seclusion, while the coral reefs just offshore are home to some of the world's most spectacular diving.
Our next romantic destination is Dubai's most intimate beach resort, One&Only The Palm. This UAE hotspot is one of the most glamorous venues in town, offering an impressive display of Moorish-meets-Andalusian desert style 
and a maze of gardens and pools on a private peninsula of Palm Jumeirah. Cruise along Dubai's Creek on your private wooden Dhow and experience the metropolitan bustle of one of the world's most impressive cities at your fingertips during your stay. Of course, there is always the choice of simply indulging in One&Only's renowned ESPA treatments and sun lounger service, ending each evening at the see-and-be-seen overwater 101 Dining Lounge, where the resident shisha master, local DJ, and panoramic Dubai city views will leave you with a serious feeling of celebrity status.
Finally . . . Your private island journey concludes in the unspoiled natural beauty of Seychelles, a place described exclusively in hyperboles. Indeed, these freckles in the Indian Ocean offer the perfect romantic retreat for two in a paradise defined by sugar-white beaches, granite rock formations, and multiple blue hued horizons. Comprised mostly of atolls, or circular-shaped land masses surrounding a lagoon, the islands are all low-lying and young by geological standards, sheltering a plethora of coral formations and choice dive sites offshore. Spend your days shamelessly indulging at the spa, exploring an unbelievable world of marine life, and enjoying your personalized menu du jour in barefoot luxury.
North Island Seychelles has only 11 villas on the tiny island, providing guests of North Island with a peaceful and private haven. The sprawling villas are each fitted with a private plunge pool and a stunning view of your own slice of paradise - plus a pair of mountain bicycles and an all-terrain buggy for your exclusive use. Those looking for the ultimate in exclusivity can stay in the secluded Villa North Island, also known as Villa 11. Set on an incline facing East Beach, this villa includes an amazing couples bath, private spa deck, and a stunning outdoor shower built into a rock face. This multi-level expanded space is the perfect romantic escape.
While tantamount in luxury, North Island also invites you to participate in the conservation efforts of its beautiful environment. No matter how you spend your days, every day promises to leave you with a deeper sense of belonging to the breathtaking beauty that is Seychelles.
