Virgin Holidays View
The 9 to 5 will seem like a million miles away at this oasis of luxury, where you enjoy not merely 1, but 2 palm-fringed tropical islands. The resort is set across them, linked by a 500m footbridge, and offers 3 different luxury experiences - amazing, thatch-roofed Water Villas perched on stilts over the shallow waters, beautifully furnished Beach Villas, or luxurious Retreat Water Villas, each with their own treatment room and jacuzzi, part of the only Destination Spa in the Maldives.
