This twin island resort, containing a luxurious range of beachfront and overwater villas, is connected by a wooden footbridge and regular dhoni service. The buildings are created in typical Maldivian style with natural materials of wood, thatch and palm leaf. Outside, iridescent white sand leads to a crystal-clear reef-protected lagoon. The Spa Retreat, the only destination spa in the Maldives, offers nine treatment rooms, a spa cuisine restaurant and individual Spa Water Villas.
Treat yourself at the destination spa, based on the four elements, its philosophy highlights how crucial each element is for life, health and well-being. How about starting off with an Air facial or massage to invigorate and refresh you after a long flight? Children haven't been forgotten either, with their own special ice-cream inspired spa, featuring chocolate, vanilla and coconut flavoured treatments. Start the evening with a champagne cocktail in the unique underwater restaurant. Dining 16 feet below sea level, the Ithaa restaurant offers 180-degree views of reef and marine life, whilst enjoying delicious Maldivian-Western fusion cuisine. We recommend pre-reserving a table at Ithaa, possible up to 14 days before arrival.

The best time to travel to the Maldives is during our winter months when the humidity is lower and the temperature more comfortable. However, the monsoon season of May to September should not be discounted for travel as the resorts have fantastic offers on accommodation. The heavier showers tend to occur in the mornings or the late afternoons; a perfect time to visit the spa.
