The survey compared rates at luxury hotels around the globe this summer, with the findings based on the minimum price two people sharing a double room would have to pay at a particular hotel or resort in August.

With a minimum nightly rate of $6,851, the North Island Lodge, located on a private island close to the Seychelles’ main island of Mahé, emerged as the priciest hotel. The exclusive property features 11 villas dotted along the island’s untouched beaches, along with numerous dining options and a luxurious spa. Guests can also enjoy watersports activities including scuba diving, snorkelling, paddle boarding, and sea kayaking.

Second in the survey’s rankings is One & Only Gorilla’s Nest in Rwanda, where guests can expect to pay $6,800 for a double room this summer. Situated in the village of Kinigi, in the foothills of the breath-taking Virunga Volcano Range, this lavish resort is self-styled as a jungle chic haven – and it’s easy to see why.  Surrounded by verdant jungle scenery, it boasts sumptuous accommodation, along with an outdoor swimming pool, a spa and a fitness centre. It is also, as the name suggests, a popular base for gorilla spotting.

Indeed, among the remainder of the top ten priciest hotels this summer are a number of other African safari lodges, which invite guests to spend the day seeking out wild animals in their natural habitat before retiring in upmost luxury and comfort. In fact, the continent of Africa is represented by 5 of the top 10 most expensive hotels. Perhaps more surprisingly, the United States only has one inclusion in the top ten – the Amangiri resort in Canyon Point, Utah.
