GENERAL INFORMATION |
|
Soneva Gili is a short 20 minutes boat ride from Male, the capital of the Maldives. A tiny coral island in a sparkling lagoon, with jetties threading across the water out to spacious villas.
The forty-four stilted accommodations continue the Soneva philosophy of 'Intelligent Luxury'. They are crafted in a traditional style from natural materials and offer roof-top and over-water sundecks, featuring open air bathrooms, sumptuous daybeds and a personal entertainment center. For the ultimate privacy, seven Crusoe Residences are only accessible by personal boat.
Come ashore for some great dining and equally great wines. Or perhaps a romantic moonlit dinner delivered right to the villa. It is possible here. The Six Senses Spa offers everything expected, and some things unexpected; glass floor-panels beneath massage tables heighten the sensual experience, whilst a Maldivian sand massage presents yet another new encounter.
The Maldives is a paradise for snorkeling and diving and the resort has its own fully -equipped PADI diving school plus a variety of water sports. This place tops the list of must-do destinations for those in the know.

Dining & Entertainment
At Soneva Gili & Spa we pride ourselves not just on the quality of our food and the excellence of our service, but also on the enjoyment of the dining experience itself.

A moonlit dinner on the sun deck of your villa or on the pontoon boat as it cruises in the lagoon under the stars, breakfast in the living room of your residence, or lunch over the water in the al fresco restaurant - the settings are as memorable as the cuisine.
Soneva Gili will set the same standards for food in the Maldives that has made Soneva Fushi the best leisure resort in the world. From the fine wines to the excellent malts we have achieved a reputation of providing our guests a unique dining experience.

The water villa suites and residences have all the luxuries found in most exclusive resorts. However, while offering all these facilities, the utmost care has been given to make the resort environmentally-friendly and to reflect the harmony of life by the water's edge. Thus, the cantilevered sun deck sits just above the water level, dining in ones villa is a panoramic dream, the luxurious amenities are all thoughtfully placed in the drawer of the wooden desk, the minibar, personal safe, and quadraphonic hi-fi are concealed with the television and VCD in a hand built wooden cabinet.
Three jetties stretch out from the island and along each jetty you will find our Soneva Gili Villa Suites and Soneva Gili Residences. Each suite and residence has been built and designed with the utmost attention to detail to ensure the total comfort of our guests.
The 29 Soneva Gili Villa Suites, 8 Soneva Gili Residences and 7 Soneva Gili Crusoe residences are located in such a way that more than twenty metres separates one from the next, affording each total privacy. A favourite pastime is to lie on the cantilevered sun deck or the roof sun deck and just gaze off into the horizon or marvel at the night sky.
The Seven Crusoe Residences stand side by side in the lagoon majestically looking out beyond the coral reef to the open sea. Each has its own private rowing boat for travelling between the residence and the jetty.
The villas and the residences are spacious with wooden floors. The bathrooms have been designed with a separate shower accessed along an open-air walkway, along its own private water garden. The roof sun deck is your own private oasis of luxury, some with jacuzzis and the cantilever sun deck an equally inviting location just above the water level.
