Dream Stay: Mӧvenpick Resort Kuredhivaru Maldives

If you like clear waters, island life and design, Maldives is simply a must.

For my second time in Maldives, I had only a short 3-night stay before heading to Sri Lanka for a 2-weeks road trip.

The Mövenpick Resort Kuredhivaru just opened its doors a few weeks before my trip. Everything there was just brand new.

The Mövenpick Resort Kuredhivaru has 5 different types of accommodations, I had the chance to try two of those. After a sea plane ride from Male international airport to the island, we headed to our first home.

BEACH POOL SUITE SUNSET

We stayed 1 night in a beach pool suite sunset:

This beach 190m² villa is facing the sea with direct beach access surrounded by tropical gardens. It has a private Sala on the upper level (9 m²) from where you can watch the sunset and a plunge pool on ground level, just a few steps away from the white sandy beach.

OVERWATER POOL VILLA LAGOON

On the second day on the island I had the chance to experience the overwater pool villa Lagoon.

Located above the turquoise lagoon, our over water villas with see-through floors offer lagoon views.

I only needed to slide the glass doors to step into the overwater infinity-edge pool, lay on the overwater net.

This villa has the particularity to have the sunrise only because of its West exposure. This is a good reason to wake up everyday at 5am and enjoy this beautiful moment.

Plus, the sea species are always ready to come and say hi at this time of the day! Right after my coffee with a view, I jumped into the water and managed to see some fishes, rays and sharks, directly under my villa.

The good part of staying in the overwater lagoon villa is obviously the option to jump directly into the lagoon from our terrace: the lagoon water is the clearest of the island. Staying on the pool watching the whole scenery is fascinating as well.

If you are lucky enough, you will be able to enjoy a beautiful sunset from your villa too, because the sky’s colors are spreading all over the island…

What I enjoyed the most in the overwater pool villa lagoon was its spacious and well designed bathroom. It was such a pleasure to relax in the large bathtub with the lagoon’s view.
