68 luxury maldives MIRIHI ISLAND RESORT TENTED JUNGLE VILLA AT FAIRMONT MALDIVES POOL RESIDENCE AT VEELA PRIVATE ISLAND “Mirihi Island resort has tapped into the current ‘buddy-moon’ trend – of honeymooning with friends and/or family rather than just your lover” SHANGRI-LA’S VILLINGILI RESORT & SPA will be offering private training sessions, motivational talks and runs on a new 5km jungle trail across peaks. Hailed as ‘the new face of wellness’ by Vogue, she will be there for 10 days from April 9, 2019. For dual-resort access One of the largest resort offerings in the Maldives is set to open in April 2019. The Residence Maldives at Dhigurah on the Gaafu Alifu Atoll (cenizaro.com/theresidence/ maldives-dg) is connected to the company’s first property by a bridge. 173 beach and water villas offer plenty of choice, while 12 new two-bedroom beach and water villas are geared towards families. Features include a 42-metre infinity pool, spa pavilions, reading lounge, complimentary bicycles and a dive centre. The children’s club offers unique activities, like Dhivehi language practice and yoga. For private island magic For the ultimate in luxurious seclusion, offer up Velaa Private Island (velaaprivateisland. com). With a choice of accommodation, its expansive four-bedroom residence is set to undergo a transformation under designer Patricia Urquiola. Clients will have everything they need for a bucket-list trip, with plenty of activities for those with itchy feet. A covered tennis arena, squash, badminton, beach volleyball and climbing wall to name a few. For simply being Atmosphere Hotels and Resorts (atmospherehotelsandresorts.com) will open its latest five-star offering in October this year, where the aim is to ensure guests can switch off entirely knowing all is taken care off. Located on the northwest edge of Male Atoll, all guests are on a ‘Platinum Plus Plan’ that offers an array of food and drink options, two excursions and in-villa services. Further features include the resort’s house reef, a dive and water sports centre, gym, kids club and ELENA spa. For multiple sleeping options Opening in summer 2019, JW Marriott Maldives Resort & Spa on the island of Vagaru, Shaviyani Atoll (marriott.co.uk), will offer many accommodation options. Opt for seclusion among lush greenery in one of its 29 one- and two-bedroom beach villas or go for a classic stay on stilts in villas that tower above the Laccadive Sea. Families looking to splash out may even be tempted by the opulent fourbedroom Royal Water Villa that comes with nanny’s quarters. Five restaurants offer plenty of choice for guests, including a novel treetop restaurant. An extensive wine cellar, spa and kids club are further features. For unfettered family time No longer the preserve of honeymooners and couples, many resorts in the Maldives now have a strong offer for families. Having recently completed a $20million renovation, Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa (marriott.com) is located just 20 minutes by speedboat from Velana International Airport. A short journey is ideal for those travelling with kids and means it’s an option for half-term breaks. Cottages with interconnecting rooms, an adventure club for children and a spa island are other family-friendly attributes of this accessible resort. sellingtravel.co.uk
