EPIC FOR ALL AGES
the Low Down
Opening back in 2019 and owned by a Maldivian entrepreneur, the independent resort was created to offer a true home-away-from-home experience—so there’s nothing cookie cutter about it. The design is upscale and the touches luxurious, but there’s a personality and bohemian feel to it boasting vibrant accent colours and eclectic decorative items. The 26 hideaways are either on the beach or over the water, and come in House or Residence options; the Houses have separate sleeping and living areas while the Residences are larger and have extras like dining rooms, additional bedrooms, or upper floors in some. Adding to the homey feel is that fact that everything from the mini-bar and book and movie library to the temperature of the pool is personalised to your tastes, based on a pre-arrival conversation with your butler. You can even have a selection of Hermes, Penhaligon’s, or an organic line for your bath products.

Dinner at Ocaso is a must with its indoor-outdoor grill that mixes up smoke-laden Japanese, Peruvian and Latin flavours to great effect. At the end of a long jetty lies Zeytoun, their signature restaurant which showcases Mediterranean and Middle-Eastern flavours – pure olive oils from the Aegean, freshly baked crusty breads, aromatic Turkish teas. All exquisitely crafted and served in refined comfort.. - Spa:
Solasta Spa specialises in the bespoke, designing wellness programmes and daily rituals that refresh and relax, pamper and protect. And the overwater yoga pavilion is a sanctuary of movement, mindfulness and release. - Signature Activities:

The Maldives are a year-round destination with a near constant temperature of 86°F (30°C). The water temperature remains steady, never falling below 77°F (25°C) and reaching 84°F (29°C) during high season. However, the islands are tropical and therefore also subject to two distinct seasons, or monsoons. April is a transitional time between these two seasons and is known for the clear water, which is appealing to divers. The iruvai (northeast monsoon) is hot and dry and runs from December to April, making this the official high season when the islands enjoy little rain and low humidity. Rain is more likely from May to November (during hulghangu, or southwest monsoon), making this the official low season.
