Your accommodation —
This offer is based on a choice between the accommodation listed below.
Ocean Overwater Villa with pool (110 m²)
Suspended above crystal-clear waters, the Ocean Overwater Villa with pool offers an intimate escape where the ocean becomes part of your everyday experience. Just moments from the house reef, it is perfectly positioned for effortless snorkelling, peaceful sunbathing or simply losing yourself in uninterrupted sea views.
Inside, the villa is thoughtfully designed to balance space, comfort and natural beauty. A king-size bed and inviting daybed face the horizon, while the partially open-air bathroom with rain shower allows fresh ocean breezes to drift through. Step onto your private deck to find a plunge pool overlooking the lagoon, an ideal spot to cool off, unwind and watch the light change across the water.
Ocean Beach Villa with pool (137 m²)
Set directly on the shoreline, the Ocean Beach Villa with pool offers a rare sense of space and privacy, where soft white sands and gentle ocean sounds shape each moment of your stay. Designed for effortless island living, the villa opens onto the beach, allowing you to step straight from your terrace into the lagoon or stroll along the shore at sunrise.
Inside, refined comfort meets natural elegance. A king-size bed dressed in luxurious linens and a separate daybed create a restful sleeping space, while the open, airy layout enhances the feeling of calm. Outside, your private plunge pool invites quiet afternoons with a book or refreshing dips under the Maldivian sun.
Best of Both (equal time spent in an Ocean Overwater Villa with pool and an Ocean Beach Villa with pool)
