Coco Bodu Hithi, North Male Atoll

On their remote small atoll setting in the Maldives, these sleek, contemporary-style villas and residences are steeped in seclusion and totally conducive to relaxation. Stroll the soft white sands, take a gentle sail on calm lagoon waters and snorkel on the abundant house reef to spot rays, turtles and baby white-tip reef sharks. The peaceful ambience is all-pervading; from traditional treatments and a soothing al fresco Jacuzzi in the Coco Spa, to Yoga and Tai Chi pavilions and an over-water fitness centre for the more energetic. Perfect for special occasions are the private ‘cinema under the stars’ and sumptuous seafood barbecues at the beach. All the villas, whether on the atoll sands or raised on stilts above the water, boast their own courtyard or deck with a sparkling pool and comfy day-beds that look out over the turquoise Indian Ocean waters. Spacious bathrooms feature indoor and outdoor showers and designer tubs with ocean views, and from the split-level decks of the Water Villas, steps lead down to the lagoon waters beneath. For the ultimate in privacy, Coco Residences are set in their own distinct cluster and include complimentary daily High Tea and sundowner cocktails at ‘Stars’ Restaurant and Bar, plus access to the Residence Lounge for iPads, board games, books, coffees and snacks.
