 Emerald Maldives 

Cool and contemporary but wonderfully down to earth, this Italian-owned and subtly Asian-inspired retreat is one of our new favourite islands.

It might be a bit clichéd to describe a resort as having something for everyone, however, this Leading Hotel of the World is one of those spots where it can be forgiven. You could take your family here as there are plenty of great sports facilities, free non-motorised watersports, a kids’ club and some wonderfully spacious villas. The vibe here is glitzy but with a rustic edge. We love the softening bamboo, natural stone and wicker design details as well as the thatched roofs of the villas, public areas and spa.

Rooms

There are 120 villas – 60 on the island and 60 over the water. Opt for the Family Beach Villa with Pool if you’re bringing the children along – or head here for a week or two if it’s just the two of you. For couples, our go-to villas would be a Beach or Water Villa with Pool, while the huge Royal Beach Villa and Presidential Water Villa are a great choice if there’s a group of you travelling together. They have a unique pool that brings the outside in to the comfy but cool living area as well as a huge terrace that leads directly on to the beach or into the lagoon respectively.

These villas overlook the resort’s private marina and the seaplane arrival jetty but don’t have direct access to the beach. They do have a 15m² pool so are a good-value choice if you would like your own swimming pool.

Facilities

  • Restaurants & bars
  • Board
  • Spas & wellness
  • Families

Days begin in the best way possible: with a fulfilling breakfast at Aqua Restaurant, the main dining venue that’s just steps from the beach. We’re big fans of the Beach Club Grill Restaurant where lazy lunches and under-the-stars dinners are served. Amazònico brings the taste of Central and South America to the Indian Ocean each evening with succulent meat served from the skewer; there’s an à la carte menu where dishes are available at a supplement but you can dine here – and at the Asian restaurant Le Asiatique – as part of the Deluxe All-Inclusive package.

Whats Included

Deluxe All Inclusive • Breakfast, lunch and dinner at Aqua Restaurant • Breakfast, lunch and dinner at Beach Club Grill • Dinner at Amazònico Restaurant and Asian Restaurant • Snacks through the day at Sunset Café • Selected drinks at the restaurants • In-room minibar stocked with soft drinks, beer and water • Wi-Fi • Kayak and stand-up paddleboards • Snorkelling equipment and 2 x 20 minute guided snorkelling trips a week (subject to weather conditions) • 1 excursion (minimum 7-night stay) or 2 excursions (minimum 10-night stay).

Bali’s thatch-roofed spas are the inspiration behind the Emerald Spa. It’s hidden away in the island’s verdant interior and is surrounded by tropical palms; you’ll feel miles away from the rest of the world. We highly recommend treating yourself to one of the Ayurveda-inspired treatments like the Asian head massage or the Abhyanga massage where medicated herbal oils are used to aid sleep and reduce stress.

Emerald Maldives Resort & Spa is a haven for families seeking some down time. The Family Beach Villas with pool are the go-to villas as they have a master bedroom and a second bedroom with twin beds. They’re just a few steps from the white-sand beach and feature a cooling plunge pool on the terrace. Children between the ages of 4 and 12 can make the most of the Dolphin Kids’ Club. The club has both indoor and outdoor areas, a pool and a kids’ restaurant and there are plenty of activities on offer.
