The perfect Maldives retreat, Hideaway offers the utmost romance and is one of the preferred destinations for those celebrating their honeymoon, or a romantic occasion with your partner. Families are very welcome at Hideaway, with an extensive Kids Club available to help keep young travellers entertained during their stay.<\/p>\n
Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa is a hidden jewel tucked away deep in the northern Maldives on Dhonakulhi Island, Haa Alifu Atoll. Pristine, untouched, and picturesque, this five-star resort is a scenic 50-minute domestic flight from Mal\u00e9 International Airport. This grants the rare opportunity for one to experience a true hideaway, and it\u2019s utterly breathtaking.<\/p>\n
The Hideaway lives up to its name with space and privacy built into the very core of the luxury offering. A stunning tropical ecosystem with a 3.5km beach and spacious accommodation option, with some of the largest beachfront villas in the country. Hideaway offers absolute escapism to those who seek it as they enjoy their own piece of heaven on Earth. Make use of the massive private beachfront area in each beach villa, such as having your very own beach BBQ with your loved ones and your friends.<\/p>\n
The resort has something for everyone, whether you want to tuck yourself away in a Deluxe Water Pool Villa, catch some rays in your private pool or go for a morning snorkel in the ocean on your doorstep, the Hideaway is literally your oyster.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s not forget the myriad of activities in the Maldives\u2026 but you\u2019ll want to keep reading to find out the best ways to keep busy in the dream destination.<\/p>\n
The Signature Collection is also on offer for the ultra-luxurious. This \u2018resort in a resort\u2019 concept comprises nine new extravagant villas that redefine secluded barefoot luxury.<\/p>\n
‘The Signature Collection by Hideaway’ offers secluded luxury and villa-style living on the beautiful Northern Point of the 33-hectare island.<\/p>\n
Live like a Sultan or Sultana at The Signature Collection, as the resort’s aesthetic takes a lot of inspiration from the grandeur of the Maldivian Royalty of days past. The story goes that The Signature Collection is the holiday home of the Sultans and Sultanas when they want to take a little break from the Utheemu Palace on the neighbouring island not too far away from Hideaway.<\/p>\n
The ultra-luxurious villas offer sophisticated travellers a unique sense of exclusivity and indulgence. All the villas have been designed with Middle Eastern influences and finishing touches, with an enhanced signature architectural style inspired by 5-star villa living combined with \u2018barefoot luxury\u2019.<\/p>\n
The Signature Collection of villas are all complemented by the finest dining, bar, and lounge area, found at the \u2018Oasis\u2019 and an array of special privileges for their residents. Inspired by the Mediterranean\u2019s convivial coastline, the Oasis offers a comfortable international premium dining experience, surrounded by elegant designs with fine Middle Eastern touches and lush foliage. The restaurant serves \u00e0 la carte breakfast, lunch and dinner and is the perfect place to relax, having a pool, a carefully curated wine list and a shisha corner.<\/p>\n
The resort offers the most incredible dining options and would absolutely suggest the White Platinum All-Inclusive Plan which means the majority of your meals and excursions are provided. This includes Taittinger Brut Champagne, unlimited premium alcoholic beverages, alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails, fresh juices and dining in the majority of restaurants.<\/p>\n
Samsara Asian Fusion offers serene surroundings coupled with an exquisite fusion of Thai, Indian and Japanese influences. It boasts a romantic location of an open-air terrace perched on stilts above the impossibly blue lagoon; outstanding fine dining and a teppanyaki table that will excite the taste buds. Samsara is an incredible experience that you\u2019ll visit multiple times (we did), the attentive staff combined with the outstanding food pushed this spot to our number one during the stay.<\/p>\n
This sand-floored oceanfront restaurant offers a warm welcome to food lovers with its expansive and daily changing buffet. A dining highlight at Matheefaru \u2013 which means coral reef in the local language \u2013 is the team of talented chefs who offer live cooking for the perfectly seasoned dish made the way you like best. The restaurant has different themes each night and the selection for breakfast is spot on. After trying uttapam (a type of thick dosa from South India) with chives and homemade sauces, along with morning, afternoon and evening Mango Lassi, it\u2019s safe to say these will be my holiday go-tos for a long time.<\/p>\n
Take in the sublime panoramas from the Sunset Pool Caf\u00e9 whilst sampling flavour-infused dishes with Asian and European influences. Open for lunch and dinner, poolside dining can be enjoyed at any time of day, and always with stunning views of the island. From Seabass Carpaccio to Braised Octopus in red wine, the perfect pit stop for a swim then seafood. This is an ideal spot if you stay in the deluxe water villa as it\u2019s just a five minute walk or a two minute cycle.<\/p>\n
For relaxed dining by the pool, Meeru Bar and Grill is the perfect place to unwind after a day in paradise. Authentic pizzas, handcrafted and cooked in a wood-fired oven, succulent cuts of meat cooked to perfection on the Lava Stone Grill and lobsters straight from the water to the grill are just a few of the delectable treats on the international menu. Enjoy dinner on the deck outside whilst spotting stingrays, baby sharks and fish swimming in the ocean below.<\/p>\n
Although the food is incredible and the wine and champagne options are top-notch, I would recommend bringing in a Mixologist to train the team up on cocktail making as that\u2019s the one thing that\u2019s missing to give this resort the full experience.<\/p>\n
Venture out to the heavenly hideaway spa for a journey through the senses with traditional ayurvedic treatments. For those wishing for a livelier break, you can make the most of the myriad of water sports on offer, head off on a sandbank picnic and sunset dolphin cruise, swim in the stunning main pool or participate in the many other activities on offer each day.<\/p>\n
You\u2019ll have a full timetable of activities each day and can pick and choose as they run morning, middle and night.<\/p>\n
I\u2019d highly recommend the manta ray and shark feeding (every night at 5 pm by Matheefaru restaurant ) which is completely free and just incredible to watch, as they are so close. The abundance of fish life around this Maldives resort is second to none, making it a prime location for snorkelling and scuba diving.<\/p>\n
You might think being on a private island could get boring, but I\u2019m pleased to share that it\u2019s quite the opposite at The Hideaway. From guided snorkelling, jet ski experiences, kayaking, a floating aqua park, and even paddleboarding available, if you prefer to keep moving, you\u2019ve got many options.<\/p>\n
Parked outside the villa is your very own bike, you can cycle everywhere (work up an appetite pre-dinner), or swing by the gym if you fancy breaking an extra sweat. Wellbeing is a core part of the Hideaway experience, with the divine Hideaway Spa offering a range of treatments for rejuvenation and relaxation.<\/p>\n
With such an array of activities, I\u2019d recommend taking everything a day or two at a time, you are in one of the most beautiful places in the world after all.<\/p>\n
The resort\u2019s uncompromising attentiveness to its guests, via their own personal butler is mind-blowing. Make sure you utilise your butler as they know the resort like the back of their hand and can advise on how to get the maximum value whilst in the Maldives for the whole family. They disclose the best snorkelling spots, customised excursions and are available 24\/7 for assistance. Please note, that the butlers really want to be utilised, our butler was saying he likes to be kept busy and that we shouldn\u2019t hesitate to reach out to him regarding anything.<\/p>\n
The Hideaway strives to create an environment where others can relax and enjoy their time in luxury and privacy \u2013 a genuine hideaway from all the worries of the outside world.<\/p>\n
Come and experience it for yourself: you deserve it.<\/p>\n
