ISLAND DREAMS
Through exclusive resorts and villas, the elusive dream of a private island getaway is an attainable reality.
An escape to the Caribbean or South Pacific is always dream-worthy, but the ultimate tropical fantasy involves being immersed in luxury and natural beauty on a private island. It is a mistake to think that only billionaires have access to such retreats, as intimate resorts and private residences await those with the spirit of romance and adventure.
Malagasy Magic
From Time + Tide, a family-owned, environmentally conscious specialist in luxury safari and exotic island tourism, is Miavana, an idyllic retreat off the coast of Madagascar. Occupying the diminutive island of Nosy Ankao, Miavana provides 14 luxury beach front villas with modern architecture that’s softened by hand-dyed textiles, Malagasy wood and local stone. These low-impact villas seamlessly coexist with the pristine natural environment. “Miavana is on par with, if not better than, any luxury private island environment in the world,” contends Bruce Simpson, CEO of Time + Tide Africa, due in large part to a destination as singularly beautiful and unique as Madagascar. Assessing Miavana’s guests, who are demographically diverse, Simpson reports, “We see them as a combination of well-traveled individuals anxious to see something new or different, and newer travelers looking for exciting, unique products or destinations.”
Confirming their adventurous spirit, Simpson reveals a large proportion of those guests elect to explore off-island attractions, immersing themselves in Madagascar’s beguiling culture, wildlife and geography. Explaining the increasing popularity of this kind of vacationing, Simpson states, “I feel that private islands are developing out of a need for more exclusive and remote environments away from larger hotels and overcommercialized offerings.” For a quintessential private island experience, this resort offers the opportunity to book all 14 villas for an ultra-extravagant holiday.
Presidential Escapes
The Florida Keys have long captured the hearts of travelers who appreciate solitude, natural beauty and a splash of eccentricity, just a leisurely excursion from bustling Miami. Occupying a four-acre islet in the Keys is an intimate hideaway named Little Palm Island Resort & Spa, whose remote location has not kept presidents or movie stars from discovering its charm.
John Allan, Little Palm Island’s general manger, states, “Beyond exclusivity and privacy, the foremost aspiration of our guests lies in the art of disconnecting.” In fact, cell phone use in public spaces is discouraged and distractions like television, telephones or alarm clocks are absent from suites. “In a world where technology and the news cycle permeate daily lives, retreating to a private island resort is a way for guests to completely unplug and cherish shared moments, he explains.
“Our guests can create their own experiences without ever running into a crowd,” says the general manager, who notes that no more than 60 guests are ever present at one time. There is, however, an abundance of non-human activity, including endangered Key deer and exotic birds, in addition to extraordinary sea life. “Our guests look for an authentic, luxury experience in all aspects of their visit,” says Allan, and suggests the resort’s partnerships with local environmental organizations appeal to their philanthropic sensibilities.
HMS Bounty
Situated on the remote French Polynesian atoll of Tetiaroa is The Brando, named for Marlon Brando, who discovered Tetiaroa when scouting locations for the 1962 film “Mutiny on the Bounty.”
The island still represents the epitomie of escapism, an experience enhanced by five-star luxury. The actor, who commented, “Tetiaroa is beautiful beyond my capacity to describe,” built a home for himself there, a serene refuge from chaotic Hollywood. With the resort’s commitment to environmental and cultural stewardship, Tetiaroa is as pristine as when Brando first laid eyes on the island. Conscientiously integrated with the delicate tropical environment are 35 beachfront villas and a secluded Paris’ renowned H Ô tel Plaza Athénée and the storied Orient Express.
“The Brando is a private island resort like no other,” insists general manager Valérie Gachon, who explains, “Guests experience luxury and authenticity in a breahtaking setting: a soul-cleaning and life-changing experience where you can connect with nature, widlife, the Polynesian people, and their culture in an organiz way.” Emphasizing the private island’s extraordinary efforts of maintaining a conscientious, carbon-neutral development — the resort is truly a global leader in sustainable hospitality — Gachon states, “The Brando allows visitors not just to observe nature but to fully immerse themselves in it.”

What is your favorite recreational or leisure time activity:
I recommend two very interesting activities: One is to rent a kayak and leave from the port of Villa la Angostura and paddle for 2 hours to Puerto Manzano, touring the most beautiful bays of the town with transparent water. I also recommend touring the Quetrihué Peninsula by bike or walking for 12km and returning by boat from the Arrayanes Forest.
Share a little known but interesting fact about the area/region:
I recommend checking out the viewpoints that the town has both in the port and in Bayo Hill, where you can appreciate some of the best views of the world from the height, appreciating the immensity of the Lake Nahuel Huapi!
