Jumeirah Holiday Proposal 2019

Once in the buggy, we go for a quick tour around the island. Wherever you look, the view of the resort is striking. As well as the white beach that encircles the island, the vegetation is jungle- like. The design of the resort itself is based on a Maldivian Village, but one that has been given a modern twist. There are plenty of different rooms to choose from, with 43 thatched villas facing out towards the beach and 39 water villas that spread out along a long pier. Honeymooners, or anyone who wants total privacy, can opt for one of the huge ocean suites that are only accessible by boat. Our stay was in a sunrise ocean-facing villa, which has a generous lounge, and an equally spacious bedroom and bathroom, as well as its own private L-shaped pool, sun deck. A ladder on one side offers direct access to the sea, if you wish to have a dip and snorkel right from your room. Conveniently the king-size bed is placed next to large French windows, which open up, so you can lie down and watch the waves that lap around you.
