Our Opinion

Paradise is made of this! An island resort, surrounded by a crystal-clear lagoon and miles and miles of ocean in shades of blue and turquoise.
This is the place for a real break, far removed from the bustle of modern life, on a beautiful island, full of tropical greenery, surrounded by a fabulous lagoon, perfect for swimming and snorkelling and close to the Maldives' best dive sites.
Maldives is famous for its marine diversity and especially for its whale-sharks, which average well over 20 feet in length. The country has some of the most fabulous sites for diving in the world and luxurious Diva is the ideal base. The most beautiful sites are less than an hour from the Resort. The boat journey makes diving trips even more enjoyable. Guests set out in dhonis, a traditional Maldivian form of boat, and an experience in itself.
The sea is never closer than in the exclusive Water Villas, standing on stilts over the lagoon. You can simply slip from your own private deck into the water.

Beautiful Maldivian wood flooring, Egyptian cotton sheets and Pierre Frey fabrics from Paris give bedrooms a warm and luxurious feel. The décor has been inspired by the lagoon, with touches of turquoise and shades of beige and ochre, offset by motifs of sea life that bring the ocean setting dramatically to life. The lagoon itself is clearly visible from both the bed and the bath.
Each Villa has its own luxurious bathroom with a sunken bath, and the bedroom can sleep two people, as well as a teenager.
Overall, the setting is fantastic, the décor simply stunning and the whole ambiance warm and relaxing.

12 Beach Pool Villas (116 m²)
The west-facing Beach Pool Villas offers sensational views of the lagoon and sunsets.
The rooms, with their luxurious en-suite bathrooms, are pure elegance and the extensive use of local wood for the floors and fittings, as well as the Pierre Frey fabrics from Paris, give an added warmth.
The décor is subtle and elegant, with sand and ochre colors that echo the beautiful sandy beach, just outside.
The individual terrace is more like extended living space, with its wooden decking and a settee for reading, lounging or simply gazing at the lagoon.
