"An adults-only private-island retreat known for its bamboo beach villas with vaulted ceilings and a design that blends comfortable luxury with nature; exceptional hospitality and sumptuous meals are highlights, and guests can kayak around the island or explore on foot to spot wildlife such as hornbills and hawksbill turtles. It's reachable in about three hours from Singapore and pairs well with a nearby family-oriented sister resort for different types of stays." - Michelle JN Lim and Tamaryn Kong
