Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi
Private pool villas, uninterrupted ocean views, an impressive 11-restaurant offering and an equally wide range of sports and activities cement Ithaafushi’s position in the highest echelons of Maldives resorts.
As well as beach and overwater villas with good-sized private pools, reef villas offer the best of both, with an entrance via the beach and a terrace above the water
Of the 11 bars and restaurants, the headliner is The Ledge by Dave Pynt, the buzzed-about chef behind Singapore’s Michelin-starred Burnt Ends
Elsewhere, outdoor mezze spot Yasmeen is styled as a traditional Arabian village, while treetop restaurant Terra offers private bamboo pods that look out over the resort
A circuit of the Aqua Wellness Centre is a must, complete with 30-metre hydrotherapy pool, zones for different body parts, ice fountain, steam room and sauna
From tennis, painting and paddleboarding to scuba diving, fishing and private boat charters, there are activities aplenty; you can even assist with coral reef conservation
