That's according to online casino company Slingo, which analysed a variety of destinations across the world to find the most luxurious holiday hotspots.
Each location was ranked according to the number of Michelin-starred restaurants and spas per 10 km2, and by the percentage of hotels with an indoor pool, hot tub and massage facilities, as well as the percentage of fine dining restaurants.
