Everything old is new again. Especially at The Barefoot’s Heritage Villas where the property has crafted well-appointed luxury villas in truly Maldivian style. Many resorts claim to be “authentic”, but they are often at best “Maldivian inspired”:
- “The villas are built with coral stone walls and coconut wood frames and are intended to offer “a rare chance to step into the past”, while still giving guests access to hotel services and curated experiences such as guided bike tours, yoga, snorkelling and cultural activities.”
The resort is located on the local island of Hanimadhoo so you can get a truly immersive local culture experience while still having a dedicated resort area (including a boat the serves alcohol which is often not available for local island guests). The best of both Maldives, old and new.
