The business site said this undiscovered archipelago is just 110 miles off Vietnam’s southeastern coast. A 45-minute flight from Ho Chi Minh city will bring travellers to Con Son, the largest (and only inhabited) member of the 16-island chain.
Fresh and diversified food is also a highlight of the island, according to the site.
Before, it was difficult for holidaymakers to find a comfortable relaxing place in Con Dao, but now standing along a stretch of golden sand are 50 airy villas (some with private pools) that look out onto the romantic coast.
Other islands named on the list include Gili Trawangan (Indonesia), Pico (Portugal), Sandon (Sweden), Scrub Island (British Virgin Islands), Skopelos (Greece), Caye Caulker (Belize), Sampson Cay and Exuma Cays (Bahamas), Flatey (Iceland), Gozo (Malta), Andaman Islands (India), Rodrigues (Mauritius), and Great Barrier Island (New Zealand)./.
