If you’re looking for an island getaway with a unique charm, Portuguese Madeira offers just that. Life revolves around the main city of Funchal, where one can explore the local market and Old Town, which is a mecca for both foodies and artists. Though Madeira may not be famed for its sandy beaches, its scenic coastline brims with caves, waterfalls and hiking trails. The island enjoys spring-like weather throughout the year, making it the perfect quick escape.
Fun Fact: Madeira is the home of Cristiano Ronaldo, who is practically worshiped on the island. There is even a museum, a statue and an airport named after the footballer.
Corsica, France
Located between France and Italy, and the fourth largest island in the Mediterranean, Corsica has long been a perfect destination for the jet set as it has not been spoiled by mass tourism. The island is known as the ‘Isle of Beauty’ and is celebrated for its warm climate, bright blue beaches, and unique mixture of Italian and French culture.
Fun Fact: Aside from tourism, cheese is one of the most important industries in Corsica.

Saint Tropez, France
Of course, we couldn’t list our favourite private jet destinations without mentioning Saint Tropez. The small town on the Cote D’Azur is the perfect place to spend a weekend basking in sunshine and even spotting a celebrity or two. It's far smaller than neighbouring Cannes and Monaco, giving it a quaint atmosphere, without losing any of the glamour and luxury.
Fun Fact: Saint Tropez was the favourite destination for Coco Chanel.
