A 35-minute seaplane journey from
Malé airport lands you in the heart
of the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere
Reserve on the shores of a lush
emerald paradise. Out of respect for
the environment, the 80 beach and
overwater villas are discreetly sited
in and around natural gaps in the
landscape and feature a fusion of
Indian Ocean, Arab and Portuguese
design motifs. Leisure comes in
all forms, from stargazing at the
Maldives’ only overwater observatory
to seabobbing through the water,
joining an art studio session, lazing
on a suspended daybed, and dining
beneath the Indian Ocean at Sea

out, too). Children enjoy special
amenities and access to the Thiththi
Boli Kids’ Club.
