Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort proudly announces the relaunch of its Over Water Villas following an extensive four-month renovation. Nestled on a picturesque natural island surrounded by the pristine waters of the South Malé Atoll, the resort’s updated villas promise an enhanced vacation experience for both couples and families.
Sailboat Serenity: A Design Inspired by Maldivian Heritage
The redesign of the over water villas draws inspiration from the traditional Maldivian boat and its tranquil journey over the serene waters. Stephen O’Dell and his team from the renowned architecture and interior design firm, SODA (Thailand) Ltd., have masterfully incorporated the “Sailboat Serenity” theme into the villa interiors. This concept is reflected in the fluid lines and calming ambiance, creating spaces that blend seamlessly with the surrounding lagoon while providing maximum relaxation and comfort.
Suspended above the crystal-clear lagoon, the interiors of the 40 over water villas feature a color palette that enhances the natural feel. Warm neutral tones set a soothing atmosphere, balanced by subtle blue accents in the furnishings to mirror the surrounding waters. Exterior spaces are innovatively designed, with over water hammocks added to the Sunrise and Sunset Over Water Villas, offering a unique relaxation spot for guests.
Enhanced Luxury with New Deluxe Sunset Over Water Pool Villas
A highlight of the renovation is the introduction of four new Deluxe Sunset Over Water Pool Villas. These exclusive villas, each offering 129 square meters of luxurious space, feature larger infinity pools and direct access to the lagoon’s crystal blue waters. This addition increases the resort’s inventory of highly sought-after sunset-facing pool villas, providing guests with unparalleled luxury and breathtaking views.
Upcoming Additions and Dining Experiences
The refurbishment of the Over Water Villas is just the beginning. Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort has several exciting projects planned, including the opening of The Yellow Fin Club, an exclusive bar that will complement the resort’s extensive dining options.
