Ever dreamt of owning a private jet and flying into your very own luxurious estate or sleek city penthouse? Bring the fantasy to life with these lavish fly-in pads from around the world.

From a mountaintop estate in New Zealand where you can park your helicopter on a sublime clifftop, to a majestic private island in the Bahamas with its very own runway, click or scroll on for the finest fly-in properties around. Buckle up and let's take off...

Too stunning to put into words, Westhaven Retreat is set high above the Tasman Sea and is cradled by the Whanganui Inlet and Kahurangi National Park, in the Tasman District of New Zealand.

Situated on its own enchanting, 815-acre (330ha) mountaintop estate, the residence is as remarkable as its surroundings. 

For sale in August 2024, with New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty, the property was priced at NZ$22.7 million, which is £10.7 million ($13.7m).

The endless acreage comes complete with a 2,732-square-foot (254sqm) home that was mindfully designed, using the principles of Feng shui – which uses energy forces to harmonise individuals with their surrounding environment. 

Step inside and you’ll be greeted by grand, light-filled rooms and the finest materials known to man, including Brazilian teak, Tasmanian oak, recycled Rimu and Otago schist.

The home is made up of three interconnected octagonal structures, with seven luxurious bedrooms, a library, dining room and lounge areas, all framing breathtaking views. There’s also a heated indoor pool, a hydrotherapy spa, an infrared sauna, a yoga room and massage room.

The incredible home even has dedicated staff quarters, a basement garage that caters for six cars and a separate workshop with an inspection pit – making it ideal for petrol heads!

The estate farm has two working cattle and sheep yards, as well as holding and shearing facilities. Plus, there are endless spots where you can touch down your helicopter. That includes a dramatic clifftop, overlooking the ocean.

If all that wasn't quite enough, Westhaven Retreat comes complete with five miles (eight km) of private coastline, incorporating subtropical sandy beaches, soaring limestone cliffs, verdant indigenous bush and established forests.

The lucky owner can even fly from the cliffs to the sand below, if they don't fancy the walk! How's that for luxurious?

Modern and striking in equal measure, Villa Noah finds itself on the serene coastline of Samana in the Dominican Republic. Built in 2014, the effortlessly stylish home is the epitome of luxury and even comes with its very own waterside helipad.

The residence is all white render and glass, with its rooms laid out in levels that seem to follow the contours of the land.

Amazingly, the home provides 18,836 square feet (1,749sqm) of inside space, including six bedrooms and six bathrooms, all with unobstructed ocean views.

On the first level of the home you’ll find a fully-equipped kitchen, a spacious living room, a dining room that comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests, a stylish bar area and an expansive outdoor terrace, complete with an infinity pool and a Jacuzzi.

On the second floor you’ll find a family room, three ensuite bedrooms and a well-equipped gym.

The opulent master suite boasts a spacious walk-in closet, a king bed, a bathroom, a living room and a private balcony that overlooks the water.

What's more, the property is situated inside a gated community and the lucky owner gets access to an exclusive golf resort, not to mention the chance to fly in and out on a daily basis.

It's no wonder Villa Noah was for sale in August 2024, with Dominican Republic Sotheby's International Realty, for £7.7 million ($9.8m).

Imagine owning your very own private island in the Bahamas and flying in whenever the mood strikes. Whale Cay is part of the Berry Islands and stretches a staggering 565 acres (229ha).

It's also within touching distance of Florida and just 30 miles (48km) north of Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas.

This island also has a rich history. Built between the 1930s and 1970s by speedboat racer and oil heiress, Marion Barbara Carstairs, several structures grace the island.

They include The Great House (pictured), a guest cottage, music room, staff dormitory and museum. Sadly, many of these buildings have succumbed to the passage of time and are crying out to be rescued.

Making coming and going a breeze, Whale Cay is easily accessible by boat or seaplane and features a 4,000-foot (1,219m) runway. There’s also plenty of space for an aircraft hangar, helipad or private airport.

On the northern side of Whale Cay lies a long, natural waterway, approximately 25 feet (7.6m) wide, which could easily be turned into a private marina.

Plus, this island even boasts plenty of outbuildings and quirky structures that are waiting to be renovated. There's a lighthouse and even a stunning little chapel. 

Luckily, since the island has already been developed, there are also plenty of roads and pathways, which should make manoeuvring round the isle nice and simple.

On the market in August 2024, via Bahamas Sotheby’s International Realty, Whale Cay was priced at a cool £15.7 million ($19.9m). We're sure it would be worth every single penny.

Named Stonefly Lodge, this enchanting residence sits within an area of outstanding natural beauty in Nelson, New Zealand.

Not only does the property come complete with 140 acres (57ha) of mesmerising private forest, but an architecturally designed, eco-friendly and sustainable home. 

The lodge was constructed in 2009, from locally sourced timber and stone. Measuring 5,662 square feet (526sqm), it benefits from a stunning entranceway that leads the eyes up to a cathedral ceiling and out through the sunken sunroom, to the front terrace and beyond. 

There’s an open-plan living area with a bar, cellar, library and games room, as well as a bespoke kitchen, six bedrooms and three bathrooms.

Located in its own wing, the master suite has a lounge and ensuite bathroom, with French doors leading out to the front lawn.

All of the other bedrooms come with their own private balconies, while extensive windows frame truly remarkable views of one of New Zealand’s most exquisite natural landscapes.

Amazingly, the property and all of its offerings are powered entirely by solar energy, while water is sourced from an on-site spring with a 75,000-litre (16,497gal) storage tank. 

Of course, such a luxurious home wouldn’t be complete without its very own helipad. The facility can be found on one of the home’s lawns, providing the lucky owner with the chance to fly in and out whenever the need arises.

The estate also has an established orchard, vegetable and flower garden and glass houses. There’s even a two-bedroom second dwelling that sits by the riverbank overlooking fenced paddocks. It's no wonder this property was for sale in August 2024, with New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty, for NZ$6.5 million, which is £3.1 million ($3.9m).

Style-wise, the property has plenty of castle-inspired details, from stone fireplaces to arched doorways and even gargoyles! Plus, there are two attached garages, where the owner can park up their favourite toys.

Of course, aviation enthusiasts won’t be disappointed, either. The estate comes with an airplane hangar and not one, but three private airstrips, providing convenient access for travel and exploration of the local area. 

The modern hangar is more than big enough for two planes and provides direct access to the runways. Plus, there's space for other hobbies, too, since the hangar also offers a large workshop and a two-bedroom guest apartment. 

Listed for sale in August 2024, with Big Sky Sotheby's International Realty, the property was priced at £3.3 million ($4.3m). We think that's a great price for a home with so many amazing amenities.
