 Paradise is made of this! An island
resort, surrounded by a crystal-clear lagoon and miles and miles of
ocean in shades of blue and turquoise.
This is the place for a real break, far removed from the bustle of
modern life, on a beautiful island, full of tropical greenery,
surrounded by a fabulous lagoon, perfect for swimming and
snorkelling and close to the Maldives’ best dive sites.
Maldives is famous for its marine diversity and especially for its
whale-sharks, which average well over 20 feet in length. The country
has some of the most fabulous sites for diving in the world and
luxurious Diva is the ideal base. The most beautiful sites are less
than an hour from the Resort. The boat journey makes diving trips
even more enjoyable. Guests set out in dhonis, a
traditional Maldivian form of boat, and an experience in itself.
The sea is never closer than in the exclusive Water Villas, standing
on stilts over the lagoon. You can simply slip from your own private
deck into the water.
The island is 25 minutes from Malé by seaplane, a short journey but
one that you will never forget.

Suites & Villas
- Deluxe Rooms (65m²) and
Junior Suites (70m²) - A sprawling
Badamier tree here, a palm tree there, discreetly offering their
soothing shade. The Junior Suites and Deluxe rooms offer a unique
proximity with nature. Everything has been carefully planned for
the living spaces to smoothly blend with the site. This delicate
fusion is well illustrated by the bathroom: a private garden,
brightly coloured bougainvillea shrubs, a garden where mineral and
vegetal subtly intertwine. The outdoor shower then becomes an
intense moment of freshness and delight, a dreamy bathing
experience, authentic well-being in communion with nature…
The 36 Deluxe Rooms (interconnecting rooms) are 65 m², the 12
Junior Suites are 70 m², face the sundowner.
- Sunrise or sunset: the
choice is yours… The 84 water villas built on stilts are spread
along the East (Water Villas) and West coasts ( Prestige Water
Villas) of the island, all in total communion with the ocean and
its magic, all in celebration of the water. Water surrounds those
who choose these villas, an omnipresent, recurrent theme in the
turquoise blue and sand-coloured cushions. In East-facing villas (
Water Villas) , the gentle breeze softly moves the canopy beds’
veils and the rooms offer a breathtaking uninterrupted view
through all the bay openings and from the large bath.
In West-facing villas ( Prestige Water Villas) the lagoon is a
dominant feature even in the shower which offers a splendid view
over the water. The bath opens directly on the terrace and lower
down, on to the lagoon, inviting you to escape. Recline on the
main terrace and let your mind wander, sail far-off seas, meet the
legendary pirates and mermaids.
- 45 Beach Villas (95m²)
- The Beach Villas are as attractive as
the Beach Pool Villas, with larger gardens but without individual
swimming pools.
12
Beach Pool Villas (116 m²) - The
west-facing Beach Pool Villas offers sensational views of the
lagoon and sunsets.
The rooms, with their luxurious en-suite bathrooms, are pure
elegance and the extensive use of local wood for the floors and
fittings, as well as the Pierre Frey fabrics from Paris, give an
added warmth.
The décor is subtle and elegant, with sand and ochre colours that
echo the beautiful sandy beach, just outside.
The individual terrace is more like extended living space, with
its wooden decking and a settee for reading, lounging or simply
gazing at the lagoon. There is also a table, large enough for
meals or for use as a writing desk. Each Villa has a private
garden on its far side, featuring a sunken swimming pool with a
wooden deck surround, 2 sunloungers and an outdoor shower.
There is plenty of room for a cot and there is an overall feeling
of spaciousness and a sense of being part of nature.
Presidential Villa
(288m²)
Diva’s Presidential Villa is the height of luxury in
these exceptionally beautiful settings. Attention to detail is
clear as soon as one steps into the villa, a refinement which
contributes to a distinctive elegance in this grandiose setting.
The glass floor in the centre of the lounge area is like a life
size aquarium, provides a fantastic marine show, an exceptional
viewpoint for your guests. The stage is set… the fantastic aquatic
ballet can begin: at your feet there are thousands of multi-coloured
fish such as yellow back fusiliers, sergeant major damselfish and
other exotic species. This is natural beauty at its best...
reflected in the fabrics and their regular pattern, just as the
waves, as well as in the turquoise blue and orange hues. Relax in
the lounge and admire the aquatic show or enjoy the serenity and
luxury of the sumptuous terrace; a splendid combination of luxury
wood decking and chequered granite slabs laid on the water. The
infinity plunge pool merges with the lagoon and ocean… the horizon
has disappeared…
