Lost among swathes of azure ocean, The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands beckons families into its luxurious surroundings for a special summer sojourn. Here, where the glistening waters meet powdery white sand, you are invited to do as much or as little as you like while soaking up tranquil, paradisical vibes of the North Malé Atoll.
Home to 100 spectacular villas that embody the best of indoor-outdoor living, treat yourself to an incredible stay at one of three secluded beach coves—Uthuru, Sangu and Dhekunu—each replete with five abodes oozing tropical opulence. Cocooned by verdant vegetation, each home boasts fully retractable floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing you to wake up to dreamy Maldivian sunrises each morning. Your own private playground for beachside sports, dining and entertainment, you are only moments away from the magnificent house reef that is brimming with kaleidoscopic marine life and coral. And you’ll not want for anything either with the sublime Aris Meeha island butler service on hand 24 hours-a-day.
For those seeking something truly exceptional, escape to the private island where The Ritz-Carlton Estate awaits. Featuring three extravagant villas ensconced by natural vegetation, the residence spans 1,500 square metres and comes complete with magnificent sunset and ocean views. Interiors blend island living with modern design, with the expansive dining and living areas showcasing a curated collection of art installations. There are four bedrooms with the master bedroom coming complete with an open-air plunge pool as well as separate quarters for nannies and security. Outside is just as elegant with an expansive sundeck leading into a 19-metre infinity pool and an outdoor entertainment pavilion. Bestowed with the services of the island butler, each of your guests will also have the use of their own bicycle as well as a dedicated buggy to explore the island.
Leave your serene sanctuary of excellence by giving into the temptation of a day full of excitement and adventure. Set sail on a sunset cruise, where you are accompanied by playful dolphins frolicking between the crystal-clear waves or dive beneath the surface and discover a water world of fascinating sea life. Swing by the tennis courts for a few sets or pamper yourself at the gorgeous The Ritz-Carlton Spa where, throughout June, one of Dubai’s premium atliers, Facette Facial Bar, has launched five bespoke experiences: The Supernova Facial, Face Yoga, The Harmony Facial, Cellular Restoration Therapy and The Supernova X. Little ones can get in on the fun too with the Ritz Kids Club. Using the four pillars of land, water, environmental responsibility and culture, children can spend their days playing sports, painting, cooking, catching a movie underneath the stars or enjoying a dip at the swimming pool with slides and jets.
Enhancing your schedule this summer, the property is introducing The Summer Collective: Masters, Explorers & Extraordinary Moments; a curated programme of summer experiences designed to entertain all ages. Starting this month, Nic von Rupp will impart his knowledge on how to tame the waves on a surfboard through a series of hands-on sessions.
