St. Barts is a Caribbean island that has only 24 hotels with rooms at each property quite difficult to reserve. Talk about exclusivity. Even the yacht moorings are booked in advance so trying to get one right away would prove to be difficult. In case you do get a reservation, you might chance upon high-profile celebs such as Beyonce, Jay Z, and Gwen Stefani.

5. St. Tropez located in the French Riviera

6. Necker Island located in the British Virginia Islands

Just like Maldives, Seychelles is ultimate paradise. If you’re very particular about total privacy, fabulous scenery and high-end amenities, then Seychelles is for best bet. Royalty shell out at least $10,000 a night for a private villa that includes a personal chef, beach buggy service and a butler. Oh, and the island is only accessible via private helicopter by the way.

These vacation spots are not just drool-worthy, they’re also more than pricey. We wonder how it would be like to stay at least a night in any of these destinations, eh?
