Maldives
This far-flung destination, located miles from civilization in the Indian Ocean, is made up of nearly 1,200 islands that provide an atmosphere that's pretty much paradise. The islands of the Maldives feature lush tropical landscapes, unparalleled white sand beaches, crystal-clear ocean waters and coral reefs that prompt extensive exploration. The best way to experience this slice of paradise? In one of its many overwater bungalows, of course.
