Satopia Travel Releases First Privé 100 Ranking of Remote Places to Stay

PARIS, FRANCE, October 14, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Satopia Travel has released its first Privé 100 ranking of remote places to stay, highlighting 100 unique accommodations across ten categories. Among the top picks, Antarctica's White Desert has been named the top destination in the Legends category. This ranking, which includes hotels, camps, trains, villas, and yachts, is based on five criteria: sense of place, design and atmosphere, intimacy and privacy, human connection, and conscious impact.

White Desert, one of three operators that took guests into Antarctica's interior last season, led the Legends category. Of the 1,027 people who made that trip, 537 travelled with White Desert, according to the International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators (IAATO). The company offers a unique experience, allowing visitors to explore the remote and untouched interior of Antarctica.

The Privé 100 ranking also includes other notable destinations. In the Boutique Hotels category, Capella Ubud in Bali, Indonesia, tops the list. For those seeking an island experience, Nihi Sumba in Indonesia is the standout in the Islands, Indian Ocean category, while Nukutepipi in French Polynesia leads in the Islands, Rest of the World category. La Dolce Vita Orient Express in Italy is the preferred choice for Luxury Trains, and Villa Beatrice in Portofino, Italy, is the Private Villas pick. Wolwedans in Namibia is the chosen Safari destination, and Awasi Patagonia in Chile is the Ultra Remote option. Chenot Palace Weggis in Switzerland is the Wellness destination, and the Orient Express Corinthian is the Yachts category winner.

The ranking emphasizes the growing demand for unique and remote experiences. As the Milky Way is hidden from more than a third of humanity, including nearly 80% of North Americans, and Venice charged 723,497 day visitors an access fee in 2025, the search for uncrowded and remote places is becoming increasingly important. The Privé 100 is a valuable resource for travelers looking to find such places.
