Maldives Barefoot Escape
Maldives · 5 days · November – April · Private or small group
Overview
The trip, in one breath.
Five days engineered around one goal: doing absolutely nothing, beautifully. A seaplane sets you down on a private atoll where your overwater villa steps straight into a living reef. Snorkel with turtles at breakfast time, take a sunset dhow cruise, or simply lie on the deck and watch the water change colour. We'll plan the details; you bring the sunscreen.
Highlights
- Overwater villa with direct reef access
- Seaplane transfers from Malé
- House-reef snorkelling with a resident marine biologist
- Sunset dhow cruise with dinner on a sandbank
- Optional spa, dive or fishing add-ons
