A spectacular pool does not always have to overlook a turquoise lagoon. Some of the most memorable retreats are beach villas and rainforest villas, where privacy, excellent service, and dramatic landscapes create a different kind of luxury. The Datai Langkawi in Malaysia is a good example: a rainforest resort that offers an experience so immersive you may not miss the beach at all.
