Banwa Private Island occupies six hectares in Palawan's Sulu Sea, reached by seaplane, private jet or helicopter rather than by road.
Six villas hold eleven bedrooms in total, each with an infinity pool that appears to merge into the surrounding ocean. It earns its place through that total exclusivity, paired with the Aquos Foundation's work protecting the island's hawksbill turtles and endangered local bird species.
Known for: beach, ecotourism, seclusion.
Palawan is a dramatic archipelago defined by towering limestone karsts, secluded lagoons, and pristine turquoise waters.
Best in January, February, March, April, May and December.
