Our Favourite Maldives Water Villas
Many have dreams of the Maldives and staying in an over-water bungalow… But why stop there? From private pools and waterslides to glass-bottom floors and underwater suites, here are our favourite hotel rooms for your new and improved daydreams…
Six Senses Laamu – Laamu Atoll
Offering an exotic collection of 14 room categories, the Six Senses Laamu is a treat for all guests; be that couples, groups of friends or families. In particular, we love the ‘Sunset Laamu Water Villa with Pool’ – A 1,360sq.ft villa with prime positioning for watching the sunset. In this room, you’ll find a glass sunken bathtub with views of the lagoon below, a furnished deck with glass-bottom table, a ‘treetop deck’ with seating area, viewing platform with day beds, and of course, a luxurious private infinity pool!
Pullman Maamuta – Gaafu Alifu Atoll
A truly jaw-dropping resort with fabulous dining, pristine beaches and dreamy sandbanks, the Pullman Maamuta is on every Maldives-lover’s wish lists. Hidden in the blue waters, you’ll find the Aqua Villa – A 2,153sq.ft property with 2 bedrooms, one of which is underwater with views of the Indian Ocean at the foot of your bed. Filled with a pale blue glow with tranquil views of the local marine life, we wouldn’t blame you for spending entire days down there.
Lily Beach Resort & Spa – South Ari Atoll
Winner of TripAdvisor’s ‘Best of the Best 2021’, the Lily Beach really is spectacular! The Deluxe Water Villas are well-known for their sparkling Jacuzzi plunge pools, bedrooms & bathrooms with bi-folding doors for an open-air experience and above all, their glass-bottom reception halls. Should you opt for one of the other amazing rooms on offer, there’s glass-bottom floors in the spa too – Should you need another reason to go for a massage…
Fushifaru – Lhaviyani Atoll
Also a contending resort for our favourite Beach Villas, the Fushifaru is a romantic resort with magazine-worthy spaces and bucket-list excursions. Escape to one of the Jacuzzi Water Villas, where you’ll find luxury interiors, a refreshing bubbly tub on your private decking and steps drifting into the below lagoon – Paradise! If you want to make your stay at the Fushifaru a little more special, guests can book an excursion to sleep on a sandbank under the stars on a private campsite.
Soneva Jani – Baa Atoll
Arguably our best-voted for water villas, the Soneva Jani crams unique features into its fabulous selection of rooms. At this property, we can’t choose our favourite; the 1-Bedroom Water Retreat has a retractable roof above your bed so you can gaze at the stars, whereas a number of the water villas have a waterslide right into the lagoon below! Other villas also hold sunken sofa pits suspended above the water – The perfect place to toast your holiday and relax in the sun.
