Island living!
Serenely located between the lagoon and the ever-encompassing Indian Ocean, surrounded by coral reefs and crystal-clear waters, the private island of Ithaafushi – which means ‘pearl’ in the local Maldivian language of Dhivehi – is an invitation to a utopian seclusion that often only exists within one’s mind. A vision of purity, tranquility and sheer indulgence. The island’s isolation from the main Waldorf Astoria resort allows for one-of-a-kind multigenerational friend and family gatherings in paradise. Where you’ll be revelling in the exclusivity and sublime luxury that you and your other twenty-three travelling companions get the glory in experiencing. Comprising of three elegantly designed villas – a two-bedroom overwater villa, a three-bedroom and a four-bedroom beachside villa, all with their own living, dining and entertaining spaces, swimming pools and jacuzzis, settled beneath the coconut palms amongst lush tropical gardens, absorbing the views of blue. The Haali – which means ‘the nest’ in Dhivehi – is the estate’s entertainment centre where a common living area extends itself into lavish pods of a playground. A Padel and tennis court, an overwater spa and wellness centre, a yoga pavilion, and more languid lounging areas around an infinity swimming pool so that you can all congregate at your leisure. Tapping into the bountiful bliss of the island.
