THE MOST EXPENSIVE RESORT: $100,000 PER NIGHT

Looking for a private getaway on a tropical island? Musha Cay in the Bahamas, owned by David Copperfield, costs $42,000 a night. Necker Island, Richard Branson’s private island resort in the British Virgin Islands, will set you back $77,500 a night. But the most expensive one? Banwa Private Island, a new resort in the Philippines, costs $100,000 a night – the most expensive island resort in the world. So, what do you get for a six-figure stay? Well, dysentery, probably, but also:
– A two-hour helicopter or seaplane ride from Manila.
– One of six beachfront villas (ranging from one to four bedrooms) all with a private infinity pool and Jacuzzi. Or, one of 12 garden rooms and a top-level residential suite. The island can accommodate up to 48 people.
– A full staff of chefs who cook with vegetables from the onsite organic farm and fish caught from the surrounding sea. The resort makes its own honey.
– Guests can get unlimited spa treatments.
– The usual activities like snorkeling, kayaking, jet skiing, scuba diving, sailing, yoga and tennis.
– There is an on-site marine specialist to talk about the local wildlife, including protected native animals.
* Aw, geeze, $100,000 and you still have to sit through the stupid environmental lecture!
* I’m thinking, “What can be worth $100,000 a night?” But then, they make their own honey, so okay.
* Do they validate?
* I bet you get there and the wifi’s crappy.
* I think they should give you, like 50 bucks off if you take a garden room as opposed to a beachfront villa. That’s only fair.
* I sure hope this story has helped you folks who are listening with your last-minute summer vacation plans.
