With a minimum price tag of around £80, a pair of Ray-Ban Sunglasses tend to be an investment rather than an impulse buy. A fashionista’s favourite, the Ray- Ban brand promises the ultimate status for anyone who chooses to buy them. Favoured by high profile celebrities such as Brad Pitt and Bradley cooper and recently modelled by President Obama, they’re the epitome of cool, sleek and stylish.
With the holiday season upon us it is the perfect Ray-Ban buying season. Everyone wants to look their best on the beach. A pair of the world’s most popular shades can go a long way in making that happen; or at least divert attention away from those ‘less than perfect’ areas that don’t need publicising.
You don’t want to waste that eye wear investment on a budget beach holiday. You want the most luxurious holiday getaways to match the world’s most luxurious eye wear brand. Eye wateringly expensive – but worth every penny. Take a look at our top three extravagant destinations that would certainly leave a hole in your wallet.
- Laucala Island, Fiji

Private luxury has a big price tag. Exclusive use of the entire island for 5 nights will set you back $187,200 per person. If you’re happy to share your space you can book yourself a more modest hotel room from $6180 per person for just one night.
- Dorado, Puerto Rico
With rare character and idyllic surroundings, Dorado Beach is one of Puerto Rico’s most sought after luxury retreats.
