Travel

It’s always an unforgettable stay with The Residence Maldives at Dhigurah.  The stunning overwater villas allow direct access to the beautiful house reef and an abundance of marine life which can be spotted from the private pool.  We love visiting as a family, cycling around the tranquil islands, delving into a variety of delicious fare at the huge range of restaurants, spending afternoons on the picturesque beach and sandbank, indulging in couples massages at the five star spa, and partaking in memorable excursions including an exciting dolphin cruise.  Our children always have a blast at the fully staffed Kids Club and we love the concept of being connected by a bridge to The Residence Maldives at Falhumaafushi.  During our stay we enjoyed colurful sunsets, saw turtles, stingrays, and dolphins, and made plenty of friends along the way.  The all inclusive package is one of the most extensive we’ve seen in the Maldives with incredible wines, cocktails, and liquors and a huge variety of international dining.  We always look forward to returning to The Residence and love the incredible team who always ensure we feel at home.  Highly recommend for families, couples, or groups looking for an epic Maldives experience.

Our second time back to Summer Island Maldives and it’s even more stunning than I remember.  The private and picturesque resort is an amazing price point for the barefoot luxury property.  The Premium Beach Villas are modern and comfortable complete with rustic outdoor bath, nightly turndown service, and just steps from the white sand beach.  Summer Island boasts amazing dining experiences from private beach dinners to bbqs in the sand, a full international buffet, and romantic overwater bar and restaurant.  We love the idyllic infinity pool and Nevi Bar is a beautiful relaxed spot to hang out at sunset with cocktails and live music.

The Blue Lagoon Project at Summer Island started in 2018 when the resort installed the world’s largest 3D printed coral reef at the Blue Lagoon right off the arrival jetty.  The island has one of the most abundant and lively house reefs we’ve experienced and they’ve done an amazing job at rehabilitating the coral that was damaged due to climate change.  Summer Island’s admirable eco efforts mean they don’t use single use plastics and utilise solar energy to ensure the preservation of their paradise.

It’s truly one of our favourite properties as a family and an incredibly tranquil and welcoming island.  The hospitality is friendly and accommodating and the natural beauty ensures you get a true taste of Maldives beauty.

Equator Village, located in the Addu Atoll, brings local charm to a postcard worthy rustic resort.  We loved the welcoming and friendly property, oceanfront villas, and refreshing lagoon style swimming pool.
