This suit is considered as the most expensive hotel suite in the world. A one night stay here costs a jaw-dropping $25,000.

Exuma Bahamas

Exuma's capital, Georgetown was once suggested to be the capital of The Bahamas because of its Elizabeth Harbour, which has a draft of 16 feet and made Exuma a favourite haunt for pirates. Since the 1950s, the harbour has been the site of the Family Island Regatta -– the race of Bahamian-made sailboats.

The Bahamian Iguanas live there and the 176 square mile Exuma National Land & Sea Park is located there-famous for diving and yachting. The island of Great Exuma is the largest of these islands with its main town of George Town being the administrative center.
