Bonus Buster: Private Island £630,000 Per Week

You’re stretched out in the tropical sun, book in one hand, mojito in the other, life is pretty good. Then all is ruined: “So, what do you do for a living…?” As is so often the case on holiday, those pesky creatures called ‘other people’ can get in the way.

Fortunately, we’ve discovered a fail-safe method for ensuring this doesn’t happen: hire your own private island. And, thanks to the Four Seasons resort in Bora Bora, you can do exactly that as of this Spring.

The comprehensive package allows you full use of the resort’s services and amenities – including the full-service spa, pool, beach, and maritime fleet – for seven nights. The price for all this? £630,000 per week. However, with 250 Four Seasons employees at your disposal, you may choose not to spend it all on your lonesome. With all of the resort’s 100 over-water bungalows, seven beachfront villas, and four restaurants available, there’s certainly plenty of room to accommodate friends, family, or, if you’re feeling really generous, your employees. It’s ideal if you fancy somewhere different for your Christmas party (just don’t let the Daily Mail find out, whatever you do).

If the £630k buyout package is too rich for your blood, the option of a room-only deal at £28,400 for a minimum of three nights is also available. But then you’d miss out on full use of the resort’s maritime fleet...
