When it comes to tropical paradise, with pristine white sands, swaying palms and clear waters teeming with brightly coloured marine life, the Maldives fit the bill like nowhere else. However these natural attractions are not the only reasons you should consider visiting these tiny islands which remain one of our most popular luxury holiday destinations.
Six Senses Laamu Maldives Water Villa
Whether you choose an island resort that offers Robinson Crusoe-style barefoot luxury like Soneva Fushi or somewhere ultra-stylish like Velassaru, you’ll experience exceptional, smiling Maldivian service. Resorts usually offer a choice of different restaurants ranging from gourmet to casual to private sandbank dining and include options like Japanese, Italian and, of course, plenty of wonderfully fresh seafood.
There’s plenty to keep you busy too – diving, snorkelling, out-of-this-world spa facilities, boat trips, excellent kids’ clubs, outdoor cinemas and wine tastings to name but a few. That’s if you can tear yourself away from your sunlounger.
