The beauty of Taj Exotica Resort & Spa, Maldives, is that you can get from Velana International Airport to the island in just 15 minutes, meaning there’s more time to spend in paradise with no second wasted. The resort is nestled in 200 acres of natural lagoon, one of the largest lagoons in the world, making it a spectacular – and safe – spot for swimming, snorkelling and diving. From the depths of the crystal clear waters to the lush tree tops around the island, nature is everywhere you look on this ‘Coconut Isle’. With a focus on conservation, the resort invites guests on an interactive journey to learn more about its award-winning coral regeneration programmes, while its Bubblemaker programme introduces kids to the wonders of scuba diving.
Stay in a two-bedroom Beach Suite with your own courtyard, outdoor shower, plunge pool and sunset balcony, or in the two-bedroom Rehendi Presidential Overwater Suite for the last word in island luxury, where you can soak up the sun from your freshwater pool, sundeck, sala or hammock that sways over the water. Take to the skies for a Parasail over the Indian Ocean, experience purity and peace at Jiva Grande Spa, then sip champagne under the stars with a sandbank dinner, for a holiday you’ll never forget.
