Bond, played by Roger Moore, used the Taj Lake Palace as a beautiful backdrop for beating bad guys in 1983's Octopussy. But forget 007, the only number you need to remember here is "5," for 5-star service and amenities.
This "shimmering jewel" is located on Lake Pichola, and the palace is part of a secluded four-acre estate in Udaipur, India. Guests reach the private palace by boat, and from there they are guided to one of the gorgeous 66 rooms -- 17 of which are suites.
Though the palace is a bit pricey, the experiences are well worth it. Indulgences include having dinner in the middle of a lake, having an escort follow you around with sparkling wine, or exploring India with your own royal butler. Sounds like a posh palace experience to us!
