Among Maldives beach resorts, our eight split-level suites stand out for the generous indoor seating area with a Balinese day-bed, large bathroom and private terrace allowing for easy access to the lagoon’s warm waters. Light floods in, the ‘dhoni’-style boat design—the suite doesn’t float but is rather fixed to the lagoon—making you feel as if it’s just you and the sea.

The best resorts in the Maldives can’t match the Dhoni Loft Suites’ quirky design. These nine rooms work very well for families because of an expansive downstairs living area (which doubles up as a sleeping area for children) and then the master bedroom on a mezzanine level, just beneath the rafters. Again the terrace has steps straight into the lagoon.

With private sundecks and full-length windows overlooking the Indian Ocean, these Maldives villas bring the outside in. A dramatically elevated loft sequesters a king-sized bed while downstairs on the main level a large and airy sitting area doubles up as a sleeping area for kids.

The largest of Cocoa Island by COMO’s Maldives over water villas, these four light-filled bungalows, all of which sit on their own secluded jetty, feature three private al fresco areas: an outdoor shower, a balcony with a daybed, and off the sitting area, which converts into a kid-friendly sleeping area, there’s a sun terrace fitted with a table and pair of loungers.

Approached by a private jetty, each villa is arranged with two wings, each with a bedroom (one king, one twin), ensuite bathroom, outdoor shower and private terrace. These wings are connected by living and dining areas with balconies on either side, which allows for step-off-the-deck access to the lagoon.

Reservations can be made at the dive centre before 5.30pm on the preceding day.  If you are unsure whether or not to dive the next day, it is better to make a reservation anyway.  This avoids disappointment should the boats or diving schedule fill up. 

water sports

The Maldives in general, and Cocoa Island in particular, offer very good water-based activities from diving to surfing. The waters surrounding the islands are clear, calm and exceptionally beautiful. The white sand and shallow lagoons mean sunshine reflects off the seabed, creating pools that are a warm, brilliant turquoise. This is also why the Maldives are highly appealing to families, with children able to snorkel safely.

excursions

Sunset cruising is a popular touristic pastime, with Cocoa Island offering its resort speedboat (fully crewed) for those who want to watch sunset over the waters of the South Malé Atoll. This is a chance to watch dolphins at play, who are often active in close proximity to the resort.

sports and recreation

You can go deep-sea fishing, or partake in water-sports off the beach, like windsurfing or catamaran sailing and the resort facilities includes: Gym with yoga facilities.
