The Best 100 Hotels and Resorts In The World

Four Seasons Private Island Maldives at Voavah

No limits Surrounded on all sides by white sands and blue sea, relax and rejuvenate at this oasis by diving a few forgotten shipwrecks then enjoying deep sea, big game or hand-line fish for dinner. The Four Seasons Private Island Maldives at Voavah, on the shores of the Arabian Sea, finds you spending the nights in an over-water hammock, resting in an over-water villa, or seeking seclusion in a mezzanine suite. Perhaps you’d prefer the relaxed extravagance of the beach house with its gorgeous pool. The Ocean of Consciousness Spa lavishes guests with unique treatments featuring tuning forks, music bowls, and even smoke cleanses. Dine your way, anyway, because it’s your private island. No paparazzi means you set your own limits. Baa Atoll, Maldives
