5-Star Maldives Island Resort to Open in June 2017

Dhigali, the newest island resort of Universal Resort, is set to open in June 2017 and is a perfect combination of luxury and the natural beauty of the Maldives.

Dhigali is located in Raa Atoll and its beauty comes from the mixture of modern and minimalist design and the wildness of the Maldives.

You can get there with a seaplane from Male Airport that lasts 45 minutes or you could go by speedboat if you wish to travel for 70 minutes.

Surrounded by the most beautiful and luxuriant nature, Dhigali is a 5-star resort that is hard to be topped by others.

According to billionairesweb.com, the island itself is corralled by 20 Beach Bungalows and 33 Deluxe Beach Bungalows to the south, and 63 Beach Villas which line the north and southwestern beaches.

Nestled under a canopy of palms these beach front sanctuaries provide luxurious intimacy, effortlessly marrying the interior and exterior.

Outside, spend your days relaxing in the private deck’s day-bed or opt for the Beach Villa with Pool which includes a private plunge pool overlooking the sparkling Indian Ocean.

Dhigali’s overwater bungalows dot the island’s azure perimeter.

Extending from the south eastern side of the island is a jetty hosting 24 Water Villas, each one rising out of the lagoon on stilts. Similarly, from the south-east of the island snakes a further jetty housing 16 larger Lagoon Villas with Pools.

The natural beauty of the island is the heart and soul of this unique resort experience.

Guests can unwind on superb golden beaches including Dhigali’s private sandbank, during season extending up to 250 m from the island or explore the island’s house reef, teeming with marine life.

Small caves are located on the southwestern part of the reef where lion fish, eagle rays, turtles and manta rays can be found.

Dhigali offers access to Hanifaru Bay, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve where divers and snorkelers can discover the largest seasonal groupings of manta rays, a variety of stunning corals and huge schools of tropical marine life, as well as the opportunity to spot Whale Sharks.

Dhigali’s innovative and authentic cuisine explores the spices of Asia, the classic tastes of Europe and traditional Maldivian flavours in its 5 restaurants whilst their 2 bars, Haali and East are perfect settings to enjoy a cocktail.

There’ll be a particular focus on fresh Asian dishes, including the specialist Asian restaurant, Battuta.

Hidden amongst the island’s idyllic tropical gardens, the Dhigali Spa is a lush sanctuary with 12 treatment rooms, making it one of the largest in the Maldives.

Featuring an outdoor plunge pool surrounded by lush natural greenery, the spa offers indigenous therapies and healing traditions.

This remote coral cay promises unforgettable moments, exquisite romance and true Maldivian beauty.
