Talk about exclusive! Calala Island in Nicaragua is the epitome of a luxury escape on a private, pristine, gorgeous beach island.

To reach the island, you need to fly to Managua Airport. From there, take another flight to Bluefields using La Costena Airlines.

This is included in the price of your points reservation, a huge improvement compared to exotic resorts like the Conrad Maldives.

This 9.5-acre island only has 4 bungalow suites. This means it can only accommodate 8-10 guests at a time. With guests kept to a minimum, once you visit, you are waited on, hand and foot, by the 25 staff on the property.

All four bungalow suites are designed by architect, Matthew Falkiner. They’re built using sustainable hardwood and situated in front of the gorgeous white sands. All room names come from local communities and each one has a king-sized bed, white linens, handcrafted furniture, large windows, a small deck, a hammock for two, sofas, a safe, slippers, a robe, and showers.

As you can see, this is as exclusive and extravagant as it gets! All rates are all-inclusive so you just have to pay and worry about nothing. You can also use 35,000 SLH World of Hyatt points per night to book a free night in this Category 8 hotel.

The Kristiania Lech was first built as a private residence for Olympic ski champ, Othmar Schneider, and sits looking out over the Lech. It was once a place where the ski champ would bring friends and family during competitions to entertain as well as make them feel at home.

Today, the Kristiania Lech continues the tradition as a home away from home for powder enthusiasts. Its legacy lives on thanks to Gertrude Schneider and her team.

Each of the 29 bedrooms in this stunning resort home is carefully curated with antiques, personal art collections, and stunning cultural pieces. No two rooms in the resort are alike, but each one has mountain views, a balcony or terrace, robes, slippers, a minibar, stylish baths, and more.

Kristiania Lech prides itself in providing a unique experience, catered specifically to each guest. From playful, cozy to extravagant, there’s a room fit for every type of traveler.

Aside from magnificent views of the Arlberg Mountains, there are other amenities to enjoy at the hotel. This includes a private meeting area, 3 exclusive restaurants, ski-in access, a private spa with personal therapists, and more.

Nights at the Kristiania Lech average around $850 for a night’s stay. However, you can redeem 35,000 SLH Hyatt points for a standard room at the hotel. That’s a value of 2.12 cents per point.
