Set across remote twin islands, for over a quarter of a century this 150-villa resort has remained one of the Maldives’ most desired for good reason. It made history when it opened the world’s first underwater restaurant in 2005 and upped the ante yet again in 2018 when it unveiled The Muraka, said to be the world’s first underwater hotel residence. The two-story villa’s master suite sits 16 ft beneath the ocean, encased in a 180-degree clear dome. This makes for out-of-this-world bedtime viewing as a rainbow assortment of reef fish glide by. The upper level also delivers on the ‘wow’ factor with a sophisticatedly modern interior offering two further en-suite bedrooms, a lounge and a kitchen complete with a personal chef. The ample sundeck features an infinity pool and uninterrupted sunset vistas. As the sky turns pink, The Muraka’s 24/7 butler will be there to deliver your drink of choice.
