Amanyara, Turks & Caicos

This is a little pocket of paradise in the middle of the sea. The exquisite hotel is surrounded by an 18,000-acre reserve, making it the ultimate private hideaway with tennis courts, spa and cinema room.

Guest rooms are individual pavilions with views of lagoons or the sea.

The design is exceptional: every building is made out of wood, with open sides to allow the breeze to waft in.

The beautiful pool, carved out of volcanic rock, is framed by three huge, canopied day-beds with a plinth to one side. And everywhere you look is the sea. You won't want to set foot off the property - and most guests never do.

Wow factor: The six new suites with beautiful private pools that mirror the main pool - more of that wonderful volcanic rock, but this time all to yourself.
