If Maldives is on your bucket list for the year, getting your airfare and accommodation booked as early as possible should be a priority. Maldives can be an expensive affair if you wait for last minute bookings. The country has over 400 luxury resorts, 5-star hotels, overwater villas and beachfront bungalows, apart from budget accommodation options. You are bound to find a budget hotel if you search early enough.
The Maldives is famous for some of the biggest resort chains in the world. Shangri La’s Villingili Resort and Spa is among the best that Maldives has to offer. Located on the Addu Atoll, Shangri La’s Maldives Resort is the first luxury boutique hotel in the area, south of the Equator.
Accommodation Options on the Property:
The Pool Villa and the Deluxe Pool Villa are the star attractions of Shangri La’s Villingili Resort and Spa. The villas have a private pool, patio, terrace, open air shower, a master bedroom and a spacious living area overlooking the azure water of the Indian Ocean.
The Water Villas built over the resort’s private lagoon rests on wooden stills. They are accessible from the shore by a wooden walkway, and overlook the marine life below. The Ocean Tree House Villa is nestled among the lush vegetation on the beach and has its own tropical jungle. Every villa has a private infinity pool looking over the Indian Ocean.
The 1-Bed and 2-Bed Beach Villas sit pretty on the shoreline overlooking the white sand beach. They are built over two pavilions. Every Beach Villa has a large bedroom, a spacious living area, terrace leading to the beach, and a private pool. The 1 and 2-Bedroom Villas are located next to each other and share a large patio with an infinity pool and sun deck.
Villa Muthee is a class apart. It is the Presidential Villa over the Indian Ocean, has a private entrance, an infinity pool right above the ocean, and a spacious deck with access to the open ocean. Villa Muthee is the pearl of Shangri La’s Maldives and is surrounded by the waves on all sides.
However, nothing comes close to the exclusivity offered by Villa Laalu. This is perfect for large groups or families, and offers two high-ceiling bedrooms, a massive living area, an ocean-facing infinity pool and an outdoor deck with a garden.
