There’s opportunity for awe-inspiring Maldives Instagram shots scattered across its private islands and magnificent resorts. In fact, the Maldives is one of the most Instagrammable holiday destinations in the world thanks to its coral-white sandy beaches, pristine blue waters, and lush paradise surroundings. But that’s just the natural wonders.
The villas built stretching out across island lagoons offer backdrops for some of the most stunning photographs, too. You’ve seen the type - a luxurious Maldives overwater villa Instagram post that stops you scrolling and starts you daydreaming.
So where are these premium, ultra-Instagrammable villas in the Maldives and what do their resorts offer?
Here are six of the most aesthetically pleasing properties in paradise, from Conrad Maldives Rangali Island to the Velaa Private Island.
As the Maldives’ first official wellbeing resort, JOALI BEING brings all-round good vibes. The resort always goes the extra mile by making you feel healthy and happy both inside and out. Just remember the promotion of wellbeing is a way of life here, so to get the most out of your experience, consider limiting your screen time to just a few Instagram snaps a day. Sunset views should be enjoyed by the naked eye before being looked at through your phone screen.
