Designed by revered Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola, the Nika Residence at Velaa Private Island is a stylish retreat in the heart of paradise. Covering an expansive 14,250 sq ft, the villa caters for up to 10 guests, with the glamorous rooms either opening out onto private gardens or overlooking the expanse of blue ocean beyond. While the interiors are spectacular (the double-height lounge and dining space, complete with 16.4-ft black marble table and oversized chandelier, are real highlights), the outdoor space is the big draw here. A social terrace opens out onto a 56-ft swimming pool, with a private slice of pristine beach beckoning. There is an impressive sound system, but the gentle crash of the waves is probably the only soundtrack you need.
