Staying at InterContinental Maldives was nothing short of magical. The property itself feels like paradise with crystal clear water, soft white sand, and sunsets that don’t look real. What really sets it apart is the service. Every staff member goes out of their way to make you feel special without ever being overbearing.
The villas are beautifully designed with a perfect mix of luxury and comfort, and waking up to the ocean right outside your deck is an experience I’ll never forget. The food was another highlight, from fresh seafood to international flavors, every meal felt thoughtfully prepared.
What I loved most was how the resort balances luxury with peace. Whether you’re snorkeling in the reef, enjoying the spa, or just relaxing by the water, there’s this constant sense of calm. It’s the kind of place where time slows down and every moment feels memorable.
If you’re looking for the ultimate Maldivian experience, InterContinental Maldives is truly worth it.
