Islands in a Dream 
MAAFUSHI ISLANDThe Maldives 3 degrees north, 70 degrees east The island of Maafushi, in the Maldives’ Faafu Atoll, has the reliably balmy climate and requisite tropical features of a pleasant island getaway. But it wasn’t until January 2007 that a Maldivian businessman transformed it into his experiment in grand luxury: the Rania Experience. Now a team of butlers, massage therapists, PADI dive masters, and international chefs makes virtually anything possible for up to 12 guests. A midnight feast or a moonlight dive? No problem. A Thai yoga massage on the beach before lunch and another by the pool after? Of course. Handcrafted wooden furniture, local-hardwood floors, and contemporary art adorn the three rooms and three thatched beach villas, and days can be filled with windsurfing, sailing, deep-sea fishing, or visiting a local village for tea on a neighboring isle. If you tire of all that, push the concept of “beck and call” on the 86-foot yacht, which is ready at a moment’s notice for diving excursions or simply deck-top cloud gazing. From $13,000 per night for two, plus $750 for each additional person; raniaexperience.com |
