Olhuveli Beach & Spa Resort

An introduction to Olhuveli Beach & Spa Resort

‘Paradise’ is the word you keep hearing from new arrivals to the Maldives. And as your speedboat pulls up at the jetty and you clap eyes on this hotel you’ll understand why. Set in a shallow turquoise lagoon, and fringed with sand and coral, this beautiful island retreat certainly looks the part. It’s a great way to arrive - a 50-minutes' ride across turquoise seas from the airport.

Even when it’s full, the Olhuveli Beach & Spa Resort feels uncrowded. There’s a tranquil, relaxed ambience about the place. Everything is uncluttered. And it’s helped along by friendly staff whose efficiency comes with a calm, relaxed courtesy.

The public areas are modern, spacious and stylish. And when it comes to accommodation, there’s a choice of elegantly-furnished places to choose from. Deluxe rooms with four-poster beds are in two-storey blocks hidden among tall palms in the gardens. Plus you’ve got beach villas and exotic water villas on stilts to consider as well.

Not surprisingly, most of the superb activities served up here have a watery theme. With an abundance of multi-hued tropical fish, the snorkelling and diving opportunities are to-die-for.

If you can drag yourself away from the beach, there are two infinity pools which seem to stretch right out into the lagoon. It’s the perfect spot to lie back and take in those matchless views of paradise, Maldives-style. And, if after all that you need any further pampering, pad along to the spa for an ultimate wind-down massage.

Last, but not least, there’s the food – quite simply it’s sensational. Last year, for example, it scored 100% with our customers.
