Lagoon, Emboodhoo, Malé 20028, Maldives

Pristine sandy beaches, swaying palm trees and bright blue waters - who doesn’t love the Maldives? And with a fashion-forward, five-star pad to call home, there’s no better time to sample everything from classic sun-soaked pursuits to more adventurous island offerings. When you aren’t snoozing on the beach or living it up in your private villa, take to the waters for a spot of splash-filled fun, whether that’s a chilled-out kayaking or pedal-boat session or a thrilling jetski ride across the waves.

Looking to explore? Cast away on a snorkelling or scuba diving trip through the crystal-clear lagoon, or book yourself a boat excursion to set sail on a scenic tour of your otherworldly surroundings. And if all that just sounds a bit much - well, we certainly won’t blame you for checking into another round at the spa.
