Laucala Island

What the classifiers highlight

Set in the remote Koro Sea, this island covers five square miles of rainforest, reef and coconut groves around just twenty-five villas. MICHELIN describes each as secluded and sculptural, built from thatch, timber and stone, with a private pool, sun deck and open-air bath framed by palms. The scale of the land, not the room count, defines the place.
