This off-the-grid getaway is a small group of tropical isles in the Riau Archipelago between Borneo and Malaysia. Here it is all about you, your significant other, a pristine beach, and the opportunity to go diving, kayaking, paddle-boarding, and sailing.
This year’s opening of the island Elang adds more intimate exclusivity as well. The luxurious back-to-nature accommodations at this eco-friendly reserve include interiors constructed out of bamboo, driftwood, hand-cut stone, and other recycled natural materials. It’s a combination of sustainability and high-end design.
