Soneva Gili

A short boat ride from Malé takes you to the tiny tropical island of Lankanfushi, home to Soneva Gili, the first all over water villa complex in the Maldives, lying in one its largest lagoons.

Taking the utmost care not to impinge on the environment and maintain the utmost privacy, Soneva Gili's airy thatched pavilions are furnished in a simple but chic style and include an over water sundeck, roof top terrace and stunning bathrooms, with separate private showers overlooking the lagoon. Seven solitary Crusoe Residences are located just offshore; reached only by boat - the ultimate in 'getting away from it all' style.

The amazing new Private Reserve, a sprawling, three-bedroom villa accessible only by boat and housing a range of living areas, a spa facility, library and kitchen offers anything and everything else those after the ultimate, exclusive experience could possibly wish for.

There are also a host of water sports, including scuba diving and deep-sea fishing, as well as tennis to divert you from your villa. The over-water Six Senses Spa is fantastic and is more than deserving of its place in the Condé Nast readers awards for Hotel Spas. Dining here is amazing whether you choose to eat on your roof terrace, at the alfresco restaurant, the new gourmet cellar, or in any number of the other memorable locations available.
