Ponta dos Ganchos, Brazil

If you still think all all-inclusives are the same…

Situated on its own peninsula on the rugged south coast of Brazil, Ponta dos Ganchos has all the creature comforts of a megaresort, the intimacy of a boutique hotel, and an off-the-beaten-track location to boot. The 25 bungalows are largely autonomous and are equipped with wine cellars, espresso makers, fireplaces, and huge wooden decks with hot tubs overlooking the Emerald Coast. It's not all about the accommodations, though: The resort's facilities include hiking trails, secluded beaches, and a private island that might tempt you to go all Robinson Crusoe. Although you'll probably be lured back to civilization by perks like the ten-course tasting menu…at breakfast.
