The St. Regis Maldives Vommuli is situated on a private island isolated from the outside world in the Dhaalu Atoll of the Maldives archipelago. The overwater resorts there take luxury to a new level, and the ocean there is a turquoise bluer than anywhere else in the world. The Maldives, which consist of 99% of water and 1% of land, have roughly 1200 islands, of which 200 are inhabited. Numerous thriving coral reefs are sheltered by many of those other islands. Could this location actually exist on Earth?

Just a minute's walk from the legendary Avenue Montaigne, Hotel La Demeure Montaigne stands out as our new favourite pied-à-terre in Paris.

A naturally-remote location in the unspoilt Noonu Atoll – ‘One Island, One Resort’ – which is a hideaway from the outside world, where your wellbeing and privacy are the highest priority. The indulgent escapism of a sparkling turquoise lagoon makes Soneva Jani irresistible to experience seekers. The lowest-density resort in the Maldives, Soneva Jani, where every over-water villa and island retreat is designed to maximise the sense of space, privacy and seclusion. Barefoot luxury, with a ratio of eight Hosts to every guest villa and the highest levels of hospitality through Soneva's Barefoot Butler service.
