Consisting of 1190 islands set amidst 26 atolls, the Maldive Islands offers the perfect tropical escape. With swaying palms, pristine white sandy beaches surrounded by crystal clear azure waters, each island is also endowed with its own natural reef. Since its discovery as a far flung paradisiacal ‘Robinson Crusoe’ hideaway with a myriad of deserted islands, the archipelago has fast tracked offering amazing luxury water villas and idyllic private dream resorts incorporating underwater restaurants and suites.

With its one of a kind underwater scenery and the island’s exotic features, a recent global survey has revealed that the Maldives is considered as the best recreational diving destination and the most desired honeymooner’s haven in the world.
