In the hushed embrace of the North Malé Atoll, Coco Bodu Hithi bills itself as "a vacation with personality" offering up plenty of experiences in Maldives whether you're a foodie, a nature lover, or a wellness enthusiast.
The allure of Bodu Hithi Island is undeniable, a symphony of serene landscapes and vibrant marine life that calls out to those yearning for a genuine retreat. Just a mere 40-minute speedboat journey from Malé International Airport, this Maldivian gem feels both accessible and wonderfully remote, a paradox that enhances its charm.
Coco Bodu Hithi embodies the essence of Maldivian elegance in every facet. Here, the luxury is understated, woven seamlessly into the island’s natural beauty. Guests are invited to reconnect with themselves, their loved ones, and the pristine environment that envelops them. From the moment one steps onto the island, the stress of the outside world melts away, replaced by the soothing cadence of the ocean and the gentle sway of palm fronds.
The island’s house reef is a treasure trove of underwater wonders, where Hawksbill turtles and Nurse sharks glide gracefully through the azure waters, and the vibrant coral gardens teem with life. For those seeking a closer encounter with the sea’s inhabitants, swimming with Manta rays and exploring the kaleidoscopic reefs is an experience that stirs the soul. A sunset cruise across calm waters or a leisurely walk along the powdery white beaches offers further immersion into the island’s dreamy pace.
Luxury accommodation: The Villas of Coco Bodu Hithi

Coco Bodu Hithi’s commitment to providing an unparalleled experience is reflected in its diverse range of private villas. Each of the four villa types offers a unique perspective of the island’s beauty, yet all share common elements of generous space, private pools, and outdoor decks that invite guests to luxuriate in their surroundings.
Nestled amidst lush tropical greenery, the Island Villas offer direct access to the beach, where the whisper of the ocean is a constant companion. These villas, with their thatched roofs and modern amenities, exude a charm that is quintessentially Maldivian.
For those seeking an elevated experience, the Water Villas and Escape Water Villas provide an intimate connection with the lagoon. These villas stand elegantly over the water, offering uninterrupted views of the boundless ocean. Inside, the design is both cosy and sophisticated, with spaces thoughtfully arranged to enhance the sense of relaxation and luxury. The Escape Water Villas, with their floor-to-ceiling glass panels, ensure that the mesmerising lagoon is ever-present, even as one luxuriates in the comfort of a king-size bed or an inviting bathtub for two.
The Coco Residences, the most exclusive of the resort’s accommodations, elevate luxury to an art form. High ceilings and expansive windows flood the interiors with light, while the exquisite décor and amenities cater to the most discerning of tastes. These residences offer true privacy, set apart from the main island and equipped with a dedicated Lifestyle Host to attend to every need. A private wine cellar, an infinity pool, and a secluded outdoor space that invites spontaneous snorkelling complete the picture of opulence.

Gourmet food is a cornerstone of the Coco Bodu Hithi experience, where the pleasures of dining experience are celebrated with as much passion as the natural beauty of the island. The resort boasts five restaurants and two bars, each offering a unique culinary adventure. From fine dining to casual beachside barbecues, the variety ensures that every meal is a delight.
Air, the poolside restaurant, starts the day with a diverse breakfast buffet and continues to please with themed dinner buffets that showcase cuisines from around the world. Aqua, the fine dining seafood restaurant, is a testament to the island’s rich marine bounty, serving dishes that are as visually stunning as they are delicious. Tsuki offers an authentic taste of Japan, while Stars combines Mediterranean and French flavours in a setting that is both elegant and relaxed. Latitude bar, with its inventive cocktails and live music, provides the perfect setting to watch the sun set over the horizon.
For wine enthusiasts, the Wine Loft is a veritable paradise, offering over 200 labels from around the globe. Weekly wine dinners pair these exquisite wines with thoughtfully crafted menus, creating a symphony of flavours that delight the palate.
Wellness and rejuvenation: The Coco Spa

Coco Spa, the resort’s award-winning wellness sanctuary, embodies the ethos of relaxation and rejuvenation. The spa’s treatments draw on ancient Indonesian, Thai, and Indian techniques, enhanced by products inspired by the healing properties of tea. Each treatment room, named after parts of the coconut palm, provides a serene environment in which to unwind and reconnect with oneself.
In addition to its extensive menu of treatments, Coco Spa offers a range of facilities designed to promote overall wellbeing. A fitness centre with panoramic lagoon views, a yoga pavilion where sunrise to sunset sessions are led by a resident yogi, and a suite of amenities including a Jacuzzi, cold plunge pool, sauna, and steam room ensure that guests leave feeling refreshed and revitalised.
Coco Bodu Hithi is more than just a resort; it is a place where the spirit of the Maldives comes to life. Here, guests are invited to slow down, breathe deeply, and embrace the tranquillity that pervades the island. Whether lounging in a private villa, exploring the vibrant marine life, savouring gourmet cuisine, or indulging in a spa treatment, every moment at Coco Bodu Hithi is a testament to the beauty and serenity of island living. In this sanctuary, the pressures of daily life are but a distant memory, replaced by the simple, profound joy of being at one with nature.

Read MoreCoco Palm Dhuni Kolhu is a quiet place in the Maldives where you will find luxury, beauty and privacy at reasonable prices. The resort very well takes care of its environment and creates guests all for a 5-star beach experience in tropical paradise. Dhuni Kolhu is ahead of other hotels in its category by quality, design and amenities. This is a top class, but a simple, laid-back package of key Maldives elements - diving, snorkeling, beach, island and accommodation. Half a mile from tip to tip, a private island of medium size is populated with 98 villas.
