Eilean Shona, Scotland

Eilean Shona is a car-free wilderness set on Scotland’s dramatic west coast. The island’s lichen-cloaked hills stand proud above tranquil Loch Moidart. Here moss and wildflowers thrive in a rich biodiverse environment, a true hideaway that once inspired author J.M. Barrie when penning the Peter Pan screenplay. Charmingly rustic and reached by helicopter or boat, there are nine guest cottages and one great house in which to rest weary feet. The abundance of wildlife gives way to a forager’s heaven, where homegrown mussels are cooked on the beach and ice cold fresh oysters are shucked with sand between your toes. Celebration meals are held on Shoe Bay, toasted with whisky and gin blended with the island’s botanicals. eileanshona.com

Lanai, Hawaii

Breathe in deeply, exhale slowly and relax. You’ve arrived. Sensei Lāna’i is the Four Seasons’ first adults-only offering focusing on tailored wellness, nutrition and health. The 96-room hotel sits high up in the dusty mountains on Hawaii’s smallest volcanic island, majority owned by American businessman Larry Ellison. Plantation chic with a modern twist, landscaped gardens envelope the main house. A yawning pine tree-lined view descends to the coastline. Voluptuous Botero figurines lie seductively by the main entrance, and are just a few of the striking sculptures that pepper the 24-acre gardens, alongside fourseasons.com/sensei

Onsen baths and high-end restaurant options. Just 8.8 miles from sandy Hulopoe Beach and with an onsite zipline over Kaiholena Gulch, island offerings include off-roading around the Pālāwai basin, hikes across the volcanic moonscape terrain and spa treatments in private spa ‘hales’.
