Highlights

The Resort: Grand opening of bespoke villas with Mediterranean-inspired beach club

Discover the newest luxury haven to grace the pristine shores of the Indian Ocean with a stay at SO/ Maldives, where the idea of a secluded castaway meets catwalk elegance, bespoke design and unmatched beauty. From the moment you arrive, succumb to the call of the water, as each boutique villa is either delicately perched above the lagoon’s surface, or beachside and just mere meters from the shore – all of them featuring a stylish private pool.

Lazuli Beach Club, a bohemian haven on the silky-white shores, beckons you to embrace your inner free spirit. Amidst the backdrop of sun-kissed sands and salty breezes, you can sip on the most imaginative cocktails, each a masterpiece of flavours, while the Mediterranean-inspired bites are the perfect accompanying snack to get you in the mood to celebrate this newfound paradise.

The Citronelle Club is a culinary overwater oasis where the ocean meets modern Asian cuisine. As the sun dips beneath the horizon, casting a tapestry of colours on the water, this oceanfront restaurant emerges as a testament to culinary artistry. Here, the harmonious blend of tradition and innovation guides your taste buds to new heights of delight, that you will cherish for a lifetime.

In the heart of this serene escape, there lies a spa dedicated to your wellbeing, where time seems to stand still, and your soul finds its home. This sanctuary is a whisper of rejuvenation, a promise of self-care and a tribute to the art of wellness. Let skilled hands, soothing aromas and gentle music guide you to a state of sublime relaxation.

Your Handpicked Inclusions – Daily breakfast, nightly dinner, speedboat transfers & more

The start of each morning is celebrated with a hearty spread of breakfast goodies at Citronelle Club – from freshly poached eggs and crispy bacon to flaky croissants and flavoursome fruits. The delicate flavours are complemented by the immaculate scenery of endless ocean, palm-fringed beaches and spectacular Maldivian sunshine.

Dinner continues to impress with a nightly a la carte set menu at Citronelle Club, known for its balanced approach to modern Asian cuisine. As the sun sets, the night comes alive beneath the starlight’s glow, showcasing the best of the Maldives. Alternatively, follow the aromatic allure of Hadaba restaurant’s Levantine cuisine, and dine on the rich Arabian flavours while overlooking the endless ocean.

Sunsets on this island paradise are best admired from Lazuli Beach Club, with one nightly cocktail to reminisce about the day that was. Sit with your loved one to discuss the highlights of your day, remembering the freshness of your early morning ocean swim and the colourful snorkelling expedition to the atoll’s reef.

The key to completely unwinding in the Maldives is a touch of sunshine, a sprinkle of ocean adventure and one 60-minute spa treatment. SO/ Maldives’ spa is a serene escape from everyday life. Find yourself letting go as you surrender to the soothing hands of trained professionals, offering bespoke wellness treatments.

Getting to and from this secluded oasis is made easy with the complimentary return speedboat transfers from Malé. Arrive in style as the wind sweeps back your hair as you pull up to the palm-fringed resort. Enjoy daily transfers to the nearby Crossroads island, and depart again in true fashion. Feel connected with the cluster of surrounding islands within the idyllic archipelago on a day trip to the nearby Crossroads resort. Here, you have the freedom to roam the little slice of paradise, indulging in the diverse dining options, including Hard Rock Cafe, or stroll along The Marina lined with quaint boutique stores, and immerse yourself in a world of relaxation at the holistic spa. Visit the Marine Discovery Centre to learn more about the delicate underwater world you find yourself in, and dive straight in with Best Dives – Watersports and Dive Centre. Little ones don’t have to miss the fun with Koimala & Maalimi’s Junior Beach Club and Camp keeping their mind, body and soul entertained all day.

The resort is dedicated to taking care of your every need, meaning a personal butler is non-negotiable. Allow the team of top-tier experts to help you find your most comfortable escape, while the kids can spend hours in The Nest kids’ club. Entertainment isn’t just for the little ones, with teens having access to the ultra-cool T-Zone, where like-minded teenagers can hang out and enjoy some adult-free time. Rest assured knowing that your visit to SO/ Maldives includes Green Tax.

Longer Stay Bonus: Stay for 8+ nights and enjoy a sublime dolphin cruise.
