If you have a long holiday to spend, where do you want to go?
Nikoi Island, Indonesia
Approximately 85km—but somehow a whole world away—from Singapore's shining skyline lies Nikoi Island. Surrounded by white sandy shorelines and vivid coral reefs, Nikoi's centre is hidden in the rainforest, resulting in amazing biodiversity (生物多样性) seen in its native plants, animal and bird life. Marrying traditional Indonesian craftsmanship with contemporary design, Nikoi boasts just 15 stilt (支柱) beach houses, all with breathtaking sea views, guaranteeing privacy and a total escape from the daily grind.
Amanpulo, Philippines
As the only property on Pamalican Island, the luxurious Amanpulo resort offers extremely impressive accommodation, with only access to over five kilometres of clean coral sand beach. Designed to resemble local Bahay Kubo homes, Amanpulo's beachside, treetop and hillside villas all feature comfortable decks with hammocks (吊床) from which to enjoy the spectacular views of the greenishblue sea below. Fill your schedule with Amanpulo's signature—aquatic adventures (including diving, windsurfing and sailing), recharge in the awardwinning spa or feast on locally caught seafood—the choice is yours.
Song Saa, Cambodia
Song Saa's incredible ocean views and breathtaking sunsets are a very typical example of the pure place. It's 24 villas—each with their own sea view and private plunge pool—are designed to reflect the natural beauty of Cambodia's coastline; built from recycled wood with straw roofs and driftwood furnishings, these villas are stylish proof of Song Saa's admirable commitment to sustainability and conservation.You can choose to do as much or as little as you want here.
