Off-the-grid Luxury

-

Being off the grid does not have to mean sacrificin­g the comforts of modern luxury. For a world-class eco-friendly holiday experience with no dependency on the modern world, and located on one of the most beautiful islands in the world, look no further than Club Med’s Finolhu Villas, situated in the gorgeous Kaafu Atoll in the Maldives. The resort, designed by world-famous architect Yuji Yamakazi, is the pinnacle of luxury and offers private pools, beaches and elegantly designed chalets for guests to enjoy their surroundin­gs in undisturbe­d peace and quiet. Fully powered by renewable energy and 100 % off the grid, the resort incorporat­es solar panels that form the roof of the walkways and are only visible from the air. Coupled with a desalinati­on plant that produces fresh water, Finolhu Villas is a model to be emulated for eco-resorts – proof that you certainly don’t need to give up luxury for an eco-friendly first-class holiday.
