We have scoured the globe to bring you the best of the best: from the luxury resorts of the Maldives to the beautiful coast of Mexico, from luxury accommodations on the Champs Elysees in Paris to the reborn luxury retreats in Phuket Thailand, and from the variety of deluxe hotels in London to the luxury high-rises of cosmopolitan Lima.

To make things even better, we’ve also launched a new interactive map for your navigation pleasures. Let us know what you think about the map, or any of our new properties. There are still some bugs and all of our hotel photos will be up soon so even though some of the hotels on the site might not have all of their information, they are still worthy of being included and have passed our intensive rating system.
Here are just a small sampling of our new favorites from around the globe:
Soneva Fushi Resort & Spa – Maldives
The first “Robinson Crusoe” style hideaway in the Maldives, is set on the privately owned, uninhibited, tropical paradise island of Kunfunadhoo.

However, whilst offering all these modern day facilities, the utmost care has been given to make the resort environment-friendly, and to reflect the dream of a Robinson Crusoe experience. Thus, the hairdryer is hidden in the drawer of a coconut wood desk; the minibar, safe, and quadraphonic hi-fi are concealed behind rattan; the TV and DVD are delivered in a water hyacinth basket.
