The Quilálea offers delicious Robinson Crusoe–like tranquility, but rather than Man Friday to keep you company you get butler service, exquisite meals, four-poster beds in elegant-rustic beachside villas, and complimentary kayaks and snorkelling gear. With only nine villas, service is highly personalised, and guests have the 34-hectare island to themselves.
