Many Maldives island resorts are ‘private’ inasmuch as there’s typically only room for one resort per island anyway, but Cocoa Island stands out from the crowd thanks to its novel accommodation. Designed to resemble traditional Maldivian dhonis (fishing boats), these stilt-mounted bungalows appear to float on the ocean, but are in fact securely fixed to the sea floor, and accessed via wooden walkways that meander out from the island’s pristine white shore. A host of COMO’s reliably luxurious amenities sit on land, and the 20 minute speedboat transfer really helps set the scene for remote island glamour.
Couple activity: Renowned COMO Shambhala spa
