5* Diva Resort
Description / Location
Paradise is made of this! A small island resort, surrounded by a crystal-clear lagoon and miles and miles of ocean in shades of blue and turquoise. This is the place for a real break, far removed from the bustle of modern life, on a beautiful island, full of tropical greenery, surrounded by a fabulous lagoon, perfect for swimming and snorkelling and close to the Maldives’ best dive sites.
The Maldives is famous for its marine diversity and especially for its whale-sharks, which average well over 20 feet in length. The country has some of the most fabulous sites for diving in the world and luxurious Diva Resort is the ideal base. The most beautiful sites are less than an hour from the Resort. The boat journey makes diving trips even more enjoyable. Guests set out in dhonis, a traditional Maldivian form of boat, and an experience in itself.
Accommodations
87 Water Villas (80m˛) - The gentle, shallow waters of the lagoon lap the steps of your exclusive Villa, as you sit reading, sunbathing or taking an outdoor shower in complete privacy, or simply gazing at the wonderful expanse of sea or the neighbouring islands from your own private terrace.
12 Beach Pool Villas (116 m˛) - The sunsets from the west-facing Beach Pool Villas are sensational – and there is a view of the lagoon and sunset even from the bed itself.
45 Beach Villas (95m˛) - The Beach Villas are as attractive as the Beach Pool Villas, with larger gardens but without individual swimming pools.
48 Junior Suites (65m˛) - All the Junior Suites look out to sea and are near to the sea on both sides, as they are located on the narrow ends of the island. Each Suite has a bedroom, en-suite bathroom, terrace and private garden area.
Restaurants & Bars
SENSES Oriental Restaurant & Lounge Bar - European savours with a touch of oriental spices waft through the air, inspired by North-African, Lebanese, Indian and Indian Ocean cuisines.
NOO Restaurant - Noo (which means Blue in Maldivian) is a spectacular, shell-shaped restaurant, featuring international cuisine. The restaurant is by Diva Island Resort and Spa's central beach, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, with themed evenings.
IRU Bar* - The brightly coloured circular bar, Iru, the local word for Sun, is also by the beach, facing the sea. Indeed, the terrace goes out to sea and is filled with sunset colour, for an unforgettable aperitif with a selection of finger snacks at the end of the afternoon.
VELI Pool Bar - The bar adjoins the circular swimming pool that extends out to sea, looking out onto the crystal-clear lagoon on three sides. The atmosphere is relaxed and cheerful. Light Mediterranean-style snacks, such as Spanish tapas, mezze and antipasti are served in Véli throughout the day.
PURE* Japanese Fusion Restaurant - Standing on stilts over the water, Pure features Japanese-style open cooking. It has a sushi bar and a Tepaniaki table, where the Chef performs a “live” show, displaying all his skills as he prepares their dishes in front of the guests.
EAST* Asian Restaurant & Bar - This is the resort's main restaurant, standing on stilts over the water, with a wonderful view out over the lagoon. It is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, featuring, amongst others, Cambodian, Indonesian, Thai, Sri Lankan, Hong Kong and Chinese-style buffets.
