Maldives

The Maldives are arguably the most happening luxury destination on the planet right now, a fact reflected in the frenzied acquisition of ever more of these idyllic desert islands by the big hotel groups. Every year sees another grand unveiling as increasingly glamorous and sophisticated resorts jostle for the attention of the discerning traveller. The islands’ popularity are made all the more poignant by the fact that as some of the planet’s lowest lying land masses, they would be among the first to sink beneath the waves if global warming continues at current rates.

After two recent research trips, Original Travel have chosen the best of a very, very good bunch, be the requirement a honeymoon haven, the ultimate dive destination, or just the quintessential desert island experience.
