InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort

LOCATED IN THE pristine Raa Atoll, the InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort is a fine mix of luxury and natural beauty. Stay in one of the overwater villas to make the most of the gorgeous lagoon and its marine life. The resort has partnered with the Manta Trust (mantatrust.org) for the conservation of the species, and as a guest, you can choose to name and adopt a manta ray through the resort. For kids, the Planet Trekkers Kids Club offers a wide range of games, arts and crafts, and mini expeditions. The adults can head to one of six overwater treatment villas in the awardwinning AVI Spa, where you can enjoy a spectrum of treatments, including mani-pedi with Margaret Dabbs London. The resort offers six restaurants and bars: Fish Market is a unique, interactive, sea-to-table kitchen concept where you can choose your own seafood, and Lighthouse whips up refreshing meals with 360° views. In the evenings, head to the aptly named Sunset Bar to enjoy refreshing cocktails and delectable canapes. From `41,279; maldives. intercontinental.com
