Some 50 villas on stilts mingle with coconut trees at this resort, well positioned in an area of jaw-dropping natural beauty and biodiversity. Built out of plantation timber, these glorious residences pay homage to the traditional homes of the Jarawa tribe, and come complete with modern touches such as rain showers. Taj Exotica provides easy access to the archipelago’s ample array of rainforests and alluring beaches, while on site there’s enough to keep you pampered and entertained, from its Olympic-length pool to a 24-hour gym. And it’s all powered by a commendable sustainability philosophy.
