Gazing inwards toward the lush native forest amid the birdsong, it’s hard to believe that North Island was in fact abandoned in the 1970s after the collapse of the coconut industry and its pristine landscape overtaken with invasive species. It’s an ambitious conservation and restoration program returned to its former glory, while exponentially raising the laid-back-luxury bar with the creation of a staggeringly beautiful 11-villa private island resort. Crafted from sustainable wood and local stone across multiple levels in the Rockside, Villa North Island cascades its way towards the sand, hidden away at the furthest tip of the island’s East Beach. It’s pure desert island luxe, where open-sided connecting spaces flow seamlessly together, from the whirlpool-set terrace and outdoor shower to the open lounge. The oversized marble bathtub in the honeymoon villa is perfect for watching the sunrise, while dinner is best enjoyed under the stars on your own private beach.
