Occupying a private island in the Haa Alifu Atoll this award-winning resort offers beach and overwater villas, as well as private residences – all categories have their own pools. There are also three main pools, including one designed for children. Ayurvedic treatments are offered at the Calm Spa sanctuary and the watersports centre provides opportunities to explore the surrounding reef. Guests can take meals (including a refined afternoon tea) and drinks at seven venues, one of which provides wine and food pairings in the Maldives’ deepest subterranean wine cave, made from lava stone.
