The Resort — A romantic oceanfront haven perfect for the ultimate couples retreat
Considering this resort’s overwhelming serenity, it’s surprisingly close to Malé – in fact, less than an hour via speedboat. Located in the North Malé Atoll, Bodu Hithi Island embodies the island’s tropical charm with pristine palm-fringed beaches and a tempting house reef. Swim with rare manta rays and nurse sharks at the resort’s own dive school, or soak up the tropical climate on a beachfront sunbed – cocktail in hand – this coastal haven is focused on showcasing the vibrant, alive and tranquil ocean that surrounds it.
Across the array of magnificent private villas, guests can enjoy their private pool and direct access to the azure lagoon. For those after an indulgent escape, Coco Spa offers a variety of treatments inspired by Indonesian, Thai and Indian techniques, using predominantly tea-based products, or there are plenty of opportunities to unwind in the jacuzzi, chill out with a cold plunge or rejuvenate in the sauna or steam room.
Dining at Coco Bodu Hithi is a celebration of flavours across its five restaurants and two bars. Enjoy diverse breakfast buffets at Air restaurant, fine seafood dining at Aqua restaurant, Japanese cuisine at Tsuki, Mediterranean fusion at Stars restaurant, creative cocktails at Latitude bar and curated wines at the Wine Loft.
Your Handpicked Inclusions – Indulge with all-inclusive dining, free-flow drinks and roundtrip transfers
On your arrival to Malé Airport, enjoy being whisked away on a private speedboat to this coastal paradise before popping a complimentary bottle of prosecco that’s waiting for you in your breathtaking villa.
