The top 5 pool villas in the Maldives
Maldives, it’s a real challenge to select just five resorts for special praise, especially when we realistically could name 25! If your budget will allow, theres no doubt that booking your own pool villa will give you an extra level of privacy and luxury where the views over the Indian Ocean will feel like theyre exclusively yours. Several returning holidaymakers have told us that they rarely leave their villa for the duration of their stay!
So, here are our recommendations for the best pool villas going
