Fodor's Review:

Architect Myron Goldfinger's geometric symphony of floor-to-ceiling windows, cantilevered walls, and curvaceous floating staircases is fit for any king (or CEO)—as is the price tag that goes along with it. Each of the three villas here has a distinct decorative theme and must be rented in its entirety; choose from Russian Amethyst, Brazilian Emerald, or African Sapphire. Striking interiors are filled with custom-made and antique pieces—Murano fixtures, Florentine linens, Turkish kilims, Fabergé ornaments, Tsarist silver candelabras—but still manage to feel airy rather than cluttered. They're also outfitted with the latest gadgetry, from touch-pad stereo systems to wireless Internet. A private butler and eight staff, including a chef, anticipate your every whim. Full conference facilities make this an ideal location for corporate or family retreats of up to 40 people. Planned renovations, slated to begin around 2010, include a luxury yacht marina and additional villas. Pros: The last word in luxury and electronic diversions. Cons: Construction of proposed marina might be bothersome.
