Warum Gäste es lieben
- Every single villa has a private plunge pool
- Daily 'Chocolate Hour' with free Swiss chocolate and ice cream
- Glass-bottom floors in the overwater villa entryways
Kurzfassung: A polished, accessible luxury resort that nails the 'Instagram Maldives' look but sacrifices some seclusion and reef quality to get there.
Bewertet von @LuxuryTravel: I stayed in the Overwater Villa and it was pure magic. The seaplane flight set the bar high, but snorkeling right off my deck was the real highlight. The floating breakfast was such a fun experience too. Perfect for a romantic reset.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
The 'Lagoon' villas face the resort beach and jetty, meaning zero privacy on your deck—everyone snorkeling or walking by can see you.
- You are traveling with kids (Little Birds Club is excellent)
- You want a guaranteed private pool without upgrading to a suite
- You love social vibes, themed buffet nights, and pool parties

“I am requesting a 'Sunrise' facing Overwater Villa (ideally in the 200 series) to ensure privacy from the main resort beach. Please avoid any villas near the arrival jetty or the powerhouse due to noise sensitivity.”
FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is the seaplane transfer included in the room rate?
No, it is a mandatory extra charge of approximately $600-650 per person roundtrip.
Is the house reef good for snorkeling?
It's mediocre directly under the villas. The best snorkeling is specifically around the Dive Center jetty, where marine life congregates.
Do all rooms have private pools?
Yes, every single villa category, from entry-level to residences, comes with a private plunge pool.
Is the resort kid-friendly?
Very. The 'Little Birds Club' is robust, and kids under 12 often eat/stay free depending on the package.
What is 'Chocolate Hour'?
A daily event from 4-5 PM at the Coffee & Wine Lounge offering complimentary Swiss chocolate treats and ice cream.
Can I hear the seaplanes from my room?
Yes, especially during the day. The resort is near a landing path, so silence is not absolute.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
Skip the main buffet for lunch and hit Latitude 5.5 for the Wagyu burger (it's a guest favorite).
- ✨
The 'Sunrise' villas get sun in the morning but the pool gets cold by late afternoon; 'Sunset' villas keep the pool warm all day.
- ✨
You can borrow snorkeling gear for free at the dive center—don't rent it.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The 'glass bottom' floor in the entry is cool but often fogs up with condensation.
💡The chocolate at Chocolate Hour can sometimes feel a bit waxy/mass-produced rather than artisanal.
💡Walking barefoot on the jetty can be dangerous due to splinter risks and scorching heat—wear flip-flops.
💡The 'Green Tax' of $6 per person per night is added to your bill at checkout, even on 'prepaid' stays.
💡The water in the overwater villa pools is not heated and can be surprisingly chilly.
