The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli Resort
Sandwiched between two house reefs in the Dhaalu Atoll, The St. Regis Maldives is on its own natural private island of verdant rainforest and white-sand beaches, just a 40-minute seaplane flight from Malé.
The exclusive experience begins upon arrival at Malé Airport, where guests are greeted by a chauffeur-driven Bentley and transferred for a seaplane flight to the resort. Cutting-edge design blends effortlessly with local craftsmanship in the 77 over water and beach villas and suites, each featuring private pool and butler service. Some also boast two and three bedrooms or spilt-levels, plus two exceptional presidential villas offer guests that sense of added extravagance.
Indulge in all kinds of international cuisine and cooking styles, with seven restaurants serving up everything from classic fine dining at Alba, to simple fresh pizzas at Crust and Mexican tacos at Craft. Sit back and enjoy tapas at the over water Whale Bar, feel the sand at your feet while sampling Middle Eastern fare at Cargo or for the best in Asian flavours, Orientale does not disappoint. Decanter, an opulent underground wine cellar, is great for those tempted by menus accompanied by fine wines. Perfect for couples and families, the resort combines high levels of privacy with fun-filled activities for all ages. The island’s house reef is ripe for snorkelling, young ones and teens will delight in the Children’s and Socialite Clubs, while the signature Iridium Spa is a tranquil oasis.
