Dive Right In
Soneva Gili, Maldives
The best way to wake up from a 9 to 5 rut is to find a place that will tickle the senses. Our recommendation: Six Senses’ Soneva Gili, an eco-resort in the largest lagoon in the Maldives. Each of its 45 over-water villas (eight accessible only by boat) offers its own water garden, sundeck, and outdoor shower. You can smell the crisp sea air, see marine life on a scuba expedition, hear the gentle waves clap up against the dhoni on a sunset champagne cruise, taste the best local foods, and feel the comforts of being pampered by over 60 spa treatments. We’re not sure what the sixth sense is — they refer to it as “beyond.” But the sixth sense that they rejuvenate in us is that of sustainability. The hotel tries to be socially and environmentally responsible in its development, operations, sourcing, and staffing. And that is something that will always tickle our fancy.
