Best of the Maldives: Isolation – Soneva Secret

Soneva Secret - isolation

One of the many charms of the Maldives destination is the Crusoe sense of isolation and distant separation from the increasingly hustle-bustle of daily modern life. My one phrase to describe the aesthetic of the Maldives is “that iconic cartoon of a plot of sand with a palm tree on it”. Soneva’s latest property, Soneva Secret, takes that concept to its own extreme situated in it own mini single-island atoll.

  • “There is no other resort in the Maldives where, as far as the eye can see, there is no other development and just nature”

Get away from it all…including the rest of the Maldives.

Best of the Maldives: Disco – Oaga

Oaga - disco

  • “Oh disco heaven, oh disco heaven” – Lady Gaga

A common FAQ is about the “nightlife” and “entertainment” on offer by the resort. I guess all that relaxation from lounging in the sun and soaking up the indolent poolside vibes during the day can generate some pent up energy for the evening. All too often, the “disco” or “dance floor” is a small square of by the beach bar and near a DJ deck. But Oaga has created a vibrant night spot that would stand out in the London club scene. Lights, ample space, lounging beds, great DJ, great sound systems all on a destination-distinctive sand-floor (for really kicking your shoes off).
